Arrghhh... I was SO damn excited when someone told me this show for ONCE will start with the couple already being a couple. Finally. Not them trying to find each other - tho not before ep9, then break up in Ep11 and back together 5min before the end - no, it's an actual plot around a couple, with couply moments, issues and fun.
But then: Amnesia arc. Meaning, not only does that destroy my excitement for the crazy rare PROPER couple-plot, no - for me an amnesia plot is the worst genre ever - well, right after bodyswap, that's even worse really. Soooo frustrating for me.
(Plus, we'll have Santa yet again act more like a child than an adult. That was fine in P10L tho, but only just.)
Haaa, maybe this will be the very first amnesia plot I'll ever like? Because it's Perth & Santa at least? I really hope so.
I think it's because we saw his old and wrinkly form. I just can't help it but see him kissing a wringkly old…
But again. Hypocrisy. Like I said, people love vampire romances - yet the vampire is always way older than the human, but hey, pretty face, so people don't care, when the 112y old kisses the 17y old. Or did you watch (let's say) Twilight and pictured Edward as an crazy winkly old man and shut of the movies the second you knew he fancies her? (Same with plenty of other stories btw.) Only difference with TPotS is: We wouldn't have to picture him, we shortly actually saw him. And uuuuh gamechanger.
So we are all just very superficial in the end. Very superficial .

I kinda understand. But that means... when it comes to it, it's really is all about appearances and looks. We are that shallow and suuuuch Hypocrites! Tho if that helps, I kinda think there's an old soul in both of them. But we'll have to wait and see.
Isn't it weird that some say stuff like "oh no I can't watch it since it's the old man's soul"? Actually understandable, but then I remembered how many of us loved Twilight? Or Vampire Diaries? Or Shadowhunter? Edward was way over 100, Stefan & Damon a couple of hundred years old and Magnus around 600? And we all loved and love it. The old man here would still be "too young" for any of those four - especially for those saying they can't watch the show bc of it.
I mean obviously I loved the show - but did anyone else miss the "finale episodes" feeling. It was a bit anticlimatic. We already knew that the show didn't really know how to handle reunion scenes, they all were rather anticlimatic (be it after the breakup, when his mum died, the kidnapping or after the prison), but something was missing in general. Buuuut that's high-grade complaining :D because the show as a whole was a masterpiece!! (Tho I do mourn a good reunion scene after all ^^).
I actually really feel you on this one. Maybe it’s because I come from book and anime/manga fandom that I’m…
Right :D yes, glad it's not just me. Like, with Perth from Love by Chance it's no biggie to watch Perfect 10 Liners, bc he has a new actor by his side. I loved them. Loved him and Santa in it. And I'm basically happy there'll be a new drama with them, but I fear it might just have the same effect on me. So a 2nd season would be the dream, bc then I can just continue with the characters I know. Haaa, anyway, they probably won't change that anytime soon, so yeah, once all episodes are out, I'll give it a try (and try this soulmates in different lives thing ^^).
Ok - am I alone in this or not? I know two actors sticking together in Thailand and acting again as a couple in the next show is crazy common. And in a way I'm happy about it sometimes, bc yaih more of Nouel & Boss or Perth & Santa or in this case Mile & Apo. But at the same time it's sooooooo damn weird to me. Like I can rewatch LitA, P10L or KP a million times, no biggie, but starting a new show with them means fighting a heavy cringy feeling for me. Even though it might be another masterpiece, the acting is chef's kiss and everything is maybe even better. Not sure why I'm having this issue. Maybe bc it makes it visible that they're actors? Not that I don't know that :D (and frankly seeing too much of them off screen isn't too good for me either, bc it kills the illusion even more. Bc what do you mean Kinn & Porsche aren't real ^^). So yes, maybe it has something to do with seeing Kinn & Porsche (in this case, same with the other couples), but they're not Kinn & Porsche. And if only one of them is in a new show, then it's not Kinn, but a new character, bc Kinn isn't Kinn without Porsche.
Sorry, long text, but everyone is so happy about the new show, like they rightfully should be, while I'm here, struggling yet again with starting a new show with the same paring - which I actually love, so what's my problem!?
Still haven't seen boy next world properly, bc of that issue -.- I annoy myself.
I don't know... it constantly felt like we're in Ep. 1 or 2 and in the early stages of building the plot. The highlights were coming...but didn't. The cast was amazing, but it was like a soft, weird, blurred dream, that made not that much sense in the end. So no harm watching it, but with everything else going on right now I'm ALMOST too busy watching other shows xD
To be honest I can't forgot the fact that it's the grandpa soul... and I can't enjoy this nor every little sweet…
I mean if it's true that the other one, Hai Yuan, IS in fact also reincarnated and the grandpa's former childhood friend... it equalises and works again :D
I can't accept the fact that he is grandpa in this body sorry, maybe if they made the grandson appear in the body…

Never expected this show to end up among my favorites. Especially Yotha & Gun - though I think what I love most about them is "Yotha" & is his mature aura, something that's unfortunately weirdly rare in BLs sometimes. Most are acting goofy. Yes like Gun for example, fair enough :D but they're balancing each other out (and frankly also yes, Gun is acting too goofy a lot of times too - for my liking). Either way, I love them.
I was DEEPLY impressed that at one point they actually called the police! No one ever does that (except the police is a major part of the story like in Manner of Death). Not even with heavy crimes. Like real heavy ones. THANK YOU!!! Finally!
But then: Amnesia arc. Meaning, not only does that destroy my excitement for the crazy rare PROPER couple-plot, no - for me an amnesia plot is the worst genre ever - well, right after bodyswap, that's even worse really.

Damn, was looking forward to aa BL with a setting like that, but nope, I NEVER do happy endings. Bye.
