While I was just writing my review, I was reminded of so many things throughout the entire series... both good and bad. So it's a 6.5 from me. (I tend to score somewhat critically, lol.)
Anyway, I've posted my review, for anyone who may be interested.
Not sure yet what I think of this. It's kind of interesting, kind of like a poor man's ATOTS. Some cute guys. Looks like we'll have at least three couples to sort through. Let's see how it all pans out.
Despite its flaws, I mostly enjoyed this series, although this last episode was a disappointment for me.
The Bam character flip-flop came out of nowhere and just seemed... weird and not convincing. And I guess we're supposed to believe that she got over her deep love for Mork like -- I dunno -- the second another guy hit on her?
The "everyone laughs at Pi because of his braces/glasses photos" thing was just maxxed out. So an entire room full of people shipping and approving of MorkPi are suddenly all going to do a 180 and say "Ewww! Look how ugly he used to be!" Bullying is a serious issue, but this just wasn't believable in Ep 12.
Snow White would be a very odd choice for a university production. And I love Duean/Meen, but that kiss was so dead fish it was almost embarrassing.
I'll admit, when I first read the spoilers that Teh and Oh-aew ended up together again, I kind of groaned. It just seemed to me that they had grown apart and their time had passed. Not only that, but almost no one ends up with their childhood sweetheart. I had hoped that they wouldn't reconcile, but this last episode was done so well that I'm good with it.
Really happy that Ep 5 began after they both had moved on a bit, it was great to see Oh-aew at peace with himself. I also appreciated that Oh-aew was so mature at the end, when he "proposed" to Teh at the beach. The "once a cheater, always a cheater" trope doesn't always apply.
For me, the kiss with Jai wasn't the real cheating, it was just clear that the two of them were growing apart. For them, their relationship had to fall apart in order to get back together.
Umm... if that's not cheating, then what is?

FUTS gets a 7.5 from me.

In the large scope of life, they're babies. Let them meet and date other people, grow up emotionally and then find their real soulmates.
I can see it now, Episode 1: "Cairo Cries Over First Gray Hair."
How many of you are still in a romantic relationship with your childhood sweetheart? And, if you're not, why not?
