you can try he's into her

no, i totally get its a wattpad adaptation and that nostalgia factor is partly the reason i am watching it. i am just saying that maybe they could have changed some dialogues or scenes to make things more natural

this is somewhat of an enemies to lover trope but not like section e. section e is a better example of stockholm syndrome than enemies to lovers. sevi here is a green flag and a great guy.

the college girls saying wow sam you're so generous, sounds so funnyy. hahahahha. if someone said that to me in that tone i would 100% think they are being sarcastic and are taunting me.
not to mention "sam you are so kind and generous" written on her slam book? why would any friend write something like that?? xD and clyden going "so this is who you really are" ahahahahahaha. i understand they are doing it to establish that she is indeed the "epitome of kindness grace, empathy.." but there has to be a better way xDDD

rain in espana, followed by safe skies archer, followed by chasing in the wild

i wouldn't call ashtine seasoned. imo, she only appears so because the rest are terrible.
the red haired guy, the black haired guy, literally any guy in the series are absolute idiots with 0 sense whatsover.
the only way this toxic drama can be redeemed is if they show that every single guy regretted their actions and paid in some way for bullying and harassing people.

so far we have got a "leader" who physically harmed a girl but has faced no repercussions of his actions till now and a class full of idiots who are now the girl's "family" even though they bullied that same girl just because their "leader" said so.

the drama is 20% wattpad nostalgia and 80% assault to senses.

it might be his first role, but strongly don't think its right for viva to cast andres in a high visibility role like this. its unfair that the audience who are paying to watch this were denied a more convincing actor and have to watch an inexperienced person act out a beloved character.
they made the nepotism to apparent. it was more appropriate to have andres work in smaller roles or theatre first to help him hone his acting skills.
viva content is consumed heavily by international fans and they might be having the wrong impression of the capabilities of the filipino media industry.

oh..right.. i think i just remembered, keifer did have an internal monologue where he was talking about the possibility of having feelings for JJ after he broke her nose (that was supposed to be an important part, i blame the acting for reducing the impact of the scene and making me forget it). okay, i guess we can assume that he probably started to have feelings even before he told about the revenge plan to his friends. fair, i guess we can say that he is not obsessive.
and Yuri refuses to let go off JJ even though he knows that she likes Keif thus showing his obsession.

yeah, i think i see your point better now :D.

Honestly, Ashtine and Rabin are better actors than Andres xD. JJ's trauma getting triggered and Yuri hovering around JJ, trying to make her happy and looking at her longingly was much more convincing. the feelings that they tried to portray at those points came through to me. Keifer comes across as a loud robot, so much so that I have a tough time understanding the character's feelings. I mean, sure he is supposed to be cold and rude and therefore can't be very expressive but atleast the internal monologues can be better or be delivered in a more convincing way so that the audience doesn't have to go all sherlock holmes trying to understand him.

totally agree that the drama is interesting. it's simultaneously bad and good. it's almost like a wattpad novel adaptation characteristic. i have watched all the instalments of the univerkada series (Rain in espana etc.) which are also adaptations of wattpad novels and found all of them to be similar in nature- bad but very interesting. xD

okay, my bad, of course everyone would not have chosen yuri. there would of course be people who chose keifer.

however, Yuri's rivalry thing that you have mentioned, purely till the extent that has been shown on air till now (and i am not taking into account the fact that we all know he is going to plot to blackmail and get engaged to JJ) is not exactly a violation of any sort. this level of rivalry is a part of any xyz love triangle. however, hitting someone with a ball on their face intentionally, make them bleed and encouraging others to hit that person is a violation. it is very evident bullying. treating Yuri's level of rivalry like a bigger offence is probably recency bias, because the latest episodes have been zooming in on Yuri's jealousy and Keifer's goodness.

also Yuri's rivalry and obsession is much on par with the entire classroom who fight with random people every second day. the number of places they have showed up to in tank tops is just insane. everyone is a nut job in that class.
additionally, want to point out that Keifer is also very obsessive. so obsessed with getting revenge from Aries that he wanted to achieve it through emotionally hurting his cousin who had nothing to do with their entire feud.

lastly, not to invalidate anyone's opinions, but there might be a chance that some people prefer Keifer over Yuri because Keif is shown as the obvious protagonist. there tends to be bias in favour of characters who are shown as the lead

Note to anyone (primarily the aggressive fans) reading this comment: All my opinions are based on what has been aired till ep14. please don't start disrespecting based on parts of the book that has not been aired till now.

sorry. haha. it was a very lame cheesy line i know. but i saw the chance and took it xD :P

i can't. they make me speechless hehe

hi, your aggression is honestly weird. please direct your passion to actual causes and not to advocate for a rich actor doing a drama whose prime audience isn't even you.
i know that when you become an adult, you will look back at your comment and cringe hard at the way you are talking right now.
that being said, i really hope that you are not an adult yet. because if you talk like this as an adult, then...yikes. lol

i read a few chapters of the english version of AMNSE and andres muhlach has butchered the character xD in the book the guy sounds like your average cold, rude male, in the drama the guy acts like he is high on crack every day

i know yuri is going to be revealed as a red flag bla bla. but can we take a moment to appreciate him? if this was not based on a novel with sequels that are already out, all of us would have preferred yuri over keifer, c'mon.
both the characters suck. so far, both have shown toxicity. both have kissed jay jay without consent, both have tried to scheme and plot against her, but only one made her bleed out of her nose and triggered her trauma. all these episodes, yuri has made actual efforts while keifer, not so much.

keifer only got the edge because of the ill fated thing called timing. he just happened to find jay jay when things went wrong in the amusement park and that was all. then jay jay started trusting him blindly because of that one incident, and gave keifer all these chances to keep helping her again and again. and probably yuri could've done that too.

i know it might sound like my grandma has wheels she would be a car sort of an argument, but it's infuriating to see efforts gets shoved into the drain and only fate driving a relationship.

hope they show evil yuri soon, because its getting very difficult to ship jayfer as of now.

it's giving a lot of boys over flowers and that was a shit show.

What’s the passcode? 👺👿😱😨
Pen pineapple apple pen 🤣🤣🤣🤣

thanks for saying this. i have watched all the instalments of the univerkada series and i am watching amnse right now and the acting's very cringe. even keifer yelling "childish" sometimes is so face palm inducing. but hardly anyone talks about that idk why?
to defend the bad actors saying that they are newbies is weird. if the acting is this bad why are they even casted? why aren't they sent to acting schools? or asked to first work harder on their acting before their debut? i don't think the country has a dearth of actors who are new and talented.
i have seen the firsts of many actors/ actresses across different countries and they are not even half this bad.
it's upsetting to think that even with such mediocre acting some people get roles in popular dramas/movies just because they are mixed filipinos or nepo babies.
makes me feel bad for those without connections who give up on their acting dreams because they don't fit the bill.

my theory is that hae seong's father is still alive but imprisoned by the chairwoman and a deal has been struck that if the gold bars are found, they will let hae seong's father free.

so, what theories do we have? who's the mole? the uncle seems sus to me

i watched boys over flowers when i was a kid. repeatedly. and the damage that it did to my personality was insane lol. took me a hell lot of maturing to become normal and normalise the right stuff. the phase where i romanticized assholery expecting that "he will change for me" was simply too long than i want to admit.

thanks for explaining it to me so well :)
