They should have ditched the whole "curse" element and simply focused on the academy as a fascist school that intimidates its students, resulting in the murder of one of the teachers.
The curse is insulting to the intelligence of the characters as well as viewers.
Who would encounter a bunch of vandalized protest signs and immediately think the perpetrator was an other-worldly being and that a curse was behind it? Certainly not the students enrolled in what the description says is "the country's leading all-boys school". I mean, come on. We're not talking about a lost tribe in the Amazon who thinks an airplane is a silver bird-god in the sky.
Despite these eye-roll inducing elements I'm sticking around because I want to see what it finally takes for Akk to succumb to Ayan, and what eventually turns him into a wolf in prefect's clothing.
Aside from that it's sad that they felt obligated to include the ol' "seatbelt" ploy. At least they had the creativity to use a judo hold to substitute for one of the leads falling into the arms of the other. The seatbelt schtick just stood out for its association with much worse series.
I wish we could take the slow and unnecessary episodes from this series and donate them to "21 Days Theory", which is wrapping up with a meager four and knows how to tell a story.
Am I right in thinking that Rain got hard twice in this episode - once in the restroom and then during the breakfast…
The acknowledgement of erections as a real phenomenon is refreshing. When was the last time I saw that in a BL? Maybe in "Why R U" when Saifah was lying on the bed pitching a tent for Zon.
And for Rain to take that long to return to standby mode must mean he was very turned on. I doubt that the girl he's been crushing on had anything close to that effect on him. 😂😂😂
God. This show is so cheesy and the plot just makes no sense and omg, the sex scenes are hillarious cos half the…
It induces smiles as well as laughter.
During the sex scenes I figure the on-screen caption in Thai is saying something like "Yeah, we know it makes no sense, but we had a blast writing this shit so just shut up and enjoy it".
I think most people are referring to the time skips. They arent very clearly defined (i.e. labelled with something…
That's a good point. I watched those "rainy day in the empty classroom" scenes three or four times. At first I thought we were seeing a time skip to a later part of the series but eventually I came to believe it was a time skip only to the end of the first episode.
For me the script was the culprit there. After Takara acted so aloof following Amagi's confession (and didn't offer a mutual confession), Amagi decided it had been false hope and he distanced. We saw a little of that, but (for me) not enough. There should have been more of Amagi avoiding Takara to the point that Takara would seek him out to talk about it. As it is, all we saw was Amagi talking to his friends about penguins and ignoring Takara's arrival at the classroom, and then the two of them walking past one another in the hallway without any acknowledgement.
The other thing that threw me off is Takara being so emotional in those scenes, but that was also the most intriguing detail. He thinks that caring about Amagi will damage Amagi, but in spite of that, just that superficial "relationship" with Amagi was enough to trigger a deep need in him.
That's what I'm most eager to see more about in future episodes.

Today's episode says "August 26", last week's said "August 19", and the first episode was "August 12".
I will always believe this to be the most overrated franchise in BL, even more so than "2gether".
I bet by the end of the series those two characteristics will be much more in synch.

I think Benz has finally found his niche in "12%".
