Unexpected pot twists
I have seen a lot of negative comments on this series but to me this series is truly amazing. It's well written with actual good plot twists that kept me on my toes. The actors did such a fantastic job. They truly delivered the emotions well. I laughed so hard at the funny scenes, I don't remember laughing this much for any series. I feel like because it was a lot relatable as a shipper lol. But tbh they portrayed the shipper mentality so well and even though the scenes are super cringy it never made me cringe. I had cried my heart out at the emotional scenes. I cried so much. Every single one of them did a great job. First is such a great actor. The way he portrayed both Kim and Pan in a single story, it's very hard to do. Ohm really knows how to express himself through his eyes. His airplane fixing scene made me cry so hard. Phriking as well. I also wan to mention View and Piploy doing extremely amazing job. I have seen View in different roles and she is a versatile actress. First time saw her as a villain and holy she did so great. I had no idea Piploy is such a great actress. She carried the episodes for me in her own way. I loved the cinematography as well. It's cute. Every episode was unexpected. I loved how they also highlighted how extreme shipping can ruin a lot of things including the shippers. It was such a rollercoster ride with great plot, good acting, amazing scenes,Was this review helpful to you?
Really great chemistry and a cute story
It was nothing extraordinary but I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. It was sort and sweet.The chemistry both on and off screen was overloaded. Acting wise I must say Dunk needed alot of improvement. Joong was very good in his role. The cast pulled it off pretty well. The cinematography and direction was perfect for the cute story. Plot wise it didn't have much to offer. It was very one dimensional and character development in general was missing. A good series to watch if you just want something to accompany your boredom or meal time.

Carried the value of it's one of a kind concept
The season 2 didn't disappoint. While compared to season the mystery elements were less confusing as we already got an idea of what was going on (S1 made me left me confused in every scene in the best possible way) this season focuses more on how everything came together to bring the concept of Enigma.The plot was great, amazing, astonishing. With a cleared picture of Ajin and the concept of black magic we progress to see the effect of black magic in real life through a very specific element. We got the story of Enigma and some back story for Ajin. I liked how they kept the continuation of the concept from s1 about women being pitted against women. S1 it was school and education while s2 is all about the competition of the industry and ending with a note of the dynamics of the power hierarchy of our society. I loved how they added the elements of Thai culture and traditions. The dress and the modern traditional Thai dance was everything to me.
Every scene made me stop breathing. It was intense. The way every scene is filmed with so much of effort, the crew and cast truly deserves a big round of applause. However if I think about s1 it was more interesting, might be because of the more profound element of mystery as we were still trying to figure out what was going on. Enigma Black stage was more about what will happen.
The cast did a great job. Their acting brought shivers to my spine. It truly felt like I was in the Enigma universe. Win has grown so much as an actor. He truly delivered. Namtan, there's nothing to talk about her. She is just fantastic with her expression and dialogues. Mint in her first role went beyond my expectations. Jingjing really took on her role of being Jew. She never slipped even for once.
I wish we have more dramas like this. A S3, no even a S10 of Enigma will never be too much. I hope more people can recognize the amazing Thai film and drama industry beyond BL and GL. There is so much to explore and Thai industry is such a risk taker for creating stories so out of the box like Enigma.
