I must say, Oat is fire with his acting, like the way he acted when he was in that omega fever and rut. But the…
Like, itās even a bigger stretch that he grew up in a world with ABO and doesnāt know ANYTHING about them?! And heās not even living in a small town somewheee away from modern life. That part doesnāt sit well. Most omegaverse stories donāt have clueless characters to this extent. At least, none that Iāve read. They at least KNOW about the existence of ABO⦠How does a guy reach his 20s and not know ANYTHING? okā¦Iāll pretend this HUGE flaw doesnāt exist because I want the reverse relationship build story. They could have info-dumped at the beginning with an overview narration instead. That makes more sense. Or flashbacks to his time in school learning about all this (like an ABO health class or something).
Fam⦠I ffwd through it šbecause I canāt. The NC scenes in My Stubborn were 10x better than whatever this…
Well, yes⦠Iām very well aware that the sub-genres are different. Obviously.
Yet Iām still gonna compare them because Iām focusing on the actors and how I felt while watching the NC scene.
I also compare this to ABO Desire (in my original comment to the series, I compare the two, which I wonāt rehash here for the sake of avoiding redundancy), which DOES have the same subgenre yet still manages to avoid the heavy duty cringe NC scenes.
Ok, so I finally was able to watch episode 1 and I think Iām gonna like this. Itās super cute. And Kimisawa Yuki is gorgeous. Sakai Sho is perfect for the role. I realized Iāve seen him in his other BL series as a support role. Itāll be good to see him as the ml. They match in looks, I think, which makes the viewing more pleasant (imo). So far I only felt cringe in the grouper scene (though why he canāt just move himself- I thought the āhelpā would be more direct for some reason.
NC in stubborn had chemistry, here it was just messy. i think second and third couple might be better, but then…
Iām hoping it gets a bit better. Messy is definitely a good word to describe it š But if theyāre soulmates, there should be at least SOME chemistry showing through the desperation and animal instinct that is the hear/rut. That was completely missing this episode. Too bad because they missed an opportunity here. Oh well.
Episode 2ā¦Fam⦠I ffwd through that NC scene because I canāt. The second-hand embarrassment was REAL. The NC scenes in My Stubborn were 10x better than whatever this was- and then they had the nerve to speed it up?! Iām dead. The way they did the uncontrollable urges and sensuality in ABO Desire was more in line with how my imagination views Omegaverse heat/rut. Thailand just goes silly with things a little too often for my taste (except Donāt Be Too Emorional- that series is peak for me so far). I wonder what China would do with this scriptā¦
But Iām actually looking forward to the story BEHIND the cringe NC. Like, how they navigate a relationship in reverse order. Iāll just have to ffwd through the second-hand embarrassment parts. Watching the scenes shown during ending credits gives me SOME small hope for an interesting story. But I know my expectations for this have been appropriately adjusted after this episode. Iāll enjoy the series more this way. Somewhere between Pit Babe and My Stubborn. āļøšš½
I can say I applaud this couple for being willing to do these scenes, let alone act them out this way. Iām already imagining Boat hiding while watching this scene later. š¤ Poor guy. Mwanwhile, Oat will likely have a big smile on his face and laugh about it. Peobably not too much embarrassment on his part. š

I understand your frustration. I want to watch the drama on Viki, but still not available in my region (North…
I discontinued my subscription after the 10th or so ad in 20 minutes. I was so done after I saw how much I was paying a month. Absolutely not. Disney is tripping. I saw that they want $20/mo for no ads and I barely go to the site. There arenāt enough dramas on there that I want to watch to pay that much for no ads. To me, the $13/mo was really too much already, since I only go there every few months or so for Disney+ only shows.
hey! thanks for informing about wattpad! I appreciate...I am going to read it because I just cannot wait for the…
This app also likes to do some wierd auto-correcting. You can also just edit your comment with the little ⦠menu option (though sometimes you need to close the app and reopen to do so). This app has a lot of bugs, but still worth the use. š
I suggest you read it on Wattpad. There are quite a few events that occur, plus a pretty big plot twist I didnāt see coming when reading. But it makes a kind of sense. I will say that it has a happy ending, so thereās that.
Did you watch the trailer? It most definitely is fantasy.
The devil arc is at least supernatural to some degree- at least, the wings appearing in the trailer gives it the appearance of the supernatural. I could be wrong though. It could just be suggestive and heās not actually a devil in disguise (though why is he getting headaches and then seem compelled to make a deal with someone shortly after). I didnāt read the novel, but Thai does like its supernatural/fantasy elements, and Khemjira was widely popular, so I wonder if theyāll add it as a modification⦠We shall see. š
English Title: After Switching Seats, It Seems The Guy Behind Me Has A Crush On Me
I wasnāt a huge fan of Eito in Takaraās Treasure because, even there, he looked too old to play a college freshman. Now heās cast as a HIGH SCHOOL student? The innocence he portrayed in Takaraās Trasure wasnāt quite believable on someone who didnāt look the part. Apparently his character in this one is also supposed to be kinda innocent, based on those whoāve said they read the novel and commented in Reddit. If thatās the case, I hope the innocence is more believable, though itāll be hard for me mostly because he doesnāt have that natural naive innocence (my opinion). But who knows? Maybe Iāll feel differently after it airs. Despite this casting flaw (just my opinion so donāt come at me), I did manage to enjoy Takaraās Treasure and have rewatched it several times.
