The second couple's storyline was better than the main couple's own

So, I binged watched this like I did for the first season and now I have completed season two as well. And what can I say? While season two dealt with some hard hitting issues, I prefered season one more.

Story-8/10
Doing this based on the two main couples, cause if I even add Tee to the equation, I'mma give it a low score due to how much I despise that man!

James and Ait-7/10
Dude! Your storyline annoyed the crap out of me, except coming close to the end. I really wasn't that much invested in caring about thier storyline. I only felt something (got a little emotional) in the last episode. Otherwise than that- nada. So, I'm giving it a 7.

Bas and Marco-9/10
My heart fricking breaked everytime Bas was on the screen. His character went through so much! And to finally see that he got his happy ending with Marco- loved it! I will admit that the ending, personally for me with them felt a bit fast paced. But, hey? I ain't complaining as Bas finally got what he truly deserved. As such, I give them a 9.

Overall I give the story an 8.

Acting/Cast-9/10
Michael's acting as Bas has once again taken the cake in this series. When he cried, I cried. When he was (finally) happy, I was happy. In the first season I gave a 9 just due to Michael's acting. Think I'm gonna do it again!

Music-7.5/10
While the majority of the music was phenomenal, I felt that one of the music just didn't do it for me. As such, I gave a 7.5.

Rewatch Valu- 6.5/10
The rewatch value would be higher if it was just Bas and Marco (I would watch that series so much!) But, unfortunately, it is not. As such I give this series 6.5.

Overall-8/10
Said it once and gonna say it again. The only good thing from this series was Michael's acting as Bas. He blew me away with his acting and I really do want to see him in other series.

What a beautiful and colourful journey!

Color Rush! What a journey! From the beginning to the end, I was carried through a grey and dull world where being introduced to colour by basically your true love. It was a unique and breathtaking ride, with a few flaws.

Story- 9/10
I have to take away a mark due to the fact of the synopsis. The third paragraph states that the MC, helps Yeon Woo's aunt in looking for his mother/ her sister, where an unexpected story begins to unfold. This does not happen...LIKE AT ALL. The missing mother and not finding any clues whatsoever about here whereabouts is bugging me a bit. Maybe they did it this way to have a second season, which by the way is very rare in the K drama world.
I know that there were other parts that troubled some people, butcwho knows? Maybe they might add them in the director's cut that is coming soon. Otherwise than that, I loved the MC as well as the supporting characters.

Acting- 10/10
These actors were good! They were able to bring these characters to life! Heo Hyun Jun has somehow made learning about colours sexy when he was describing it to Choi Yeon Woo's character. Also, the scene vefore they kissed! That had me so emotional where one can't recognized faces and the next one can't see colours. But together, they are able to see this. That fricking moment made me teary eyed.

Music-10/10
The music is so addictive and beautiful. It was also well placed in the series where it was able to set the mood.

Rewatch Valu- 10/10
I will most definitely watch this again! Matter of fact, I'm just waiting for the director's cut to see if any new scenes were included to watch it again!

Overall-10/10
Although they were some plot holes as I have stated, it was still an enjoyable series. This truly made my Wednesdays and Thursdays. I love t so much and would most definitely recommend it!

I started this series when it came out. Stopped at episode three, decided to catch up on this series today, only to realize the finale was today. This was my first Philippines BL that I have completed.

Story-7.5/10
It started off different form the usual series that I watched. Also, in episode six when Christian met his dad, that got to me a bit. And eventhough Christian and Zach broke up in the end and reamined friends, it is still seen that Zach still cares for him. However, I do not like that Zach and Wolf kissed, cause Christian totally did not deserve that.

Acting/Cast-6/10
This was the actors first time acting. They did thier best with the script that they were given.

Music-8.5/10
The music was truly the saving grace for this series. It was truly beautiful and moving. They did a good job in respect of that.

Rewatch Value-4.5/10
I can safely say that I am not in any rush to watch this series again. It was okay, but not something that I will watch again.

Overall-6.5/10
It was an okay story, giving us a different view in BL.

I enjoyed the last four couples more than the first four

After having finished this series on Thursday (08th June), I am finally getting the time to write a review today (10th June). I actually need to write this review to know what my rating for this series will be. I would like to say that I was a huge fan of the first ': Our Skyy' anthology series (I gave it a 10 and no one can change my mind about it). So, I was super excited to hear we were getting another one with eight couples from previously aired series (except for 'A Boss and a Babe'. That was airing while this was airing too). And I just want to say that I wasn't a fan of four out of the eight series. And I guess, because of that, I really wasn't able to enjoy their stories as much as I did the last four couples (matter of fact I told myself that they saved the best for last with these four).

Story-7.5/10 (when adding up all of the couple episodes)
Because it was eight different stories being told, I graded each story on their own and then added it up to get my final rating for this series.

Our Skyy 2: Never Let Me Go- The first in this anthology series was from 'NLMG'. I honestly did not like the series when I watched it (I had to watch it before OS2 premiered to prepare myself). I gave the original a 6/10. With that being said, I still kind of like this and the storyline was a bit different to any of what Thai BL series have offered to us so far (although I just recently saw someone may be doing an upcoming series like this soon). This was also one of the series where I was more invested in the secondary couples than the main couple. I am giving a 7/10 for their unique storyline and for their secondary characters, making this my fifth liked in this anthology series.

Our Skyy 2: Star in My Mind- I really, REALLY did not like this original series (I gave it a 5.5 and I preferred 'Star and Sky; Sky in Your Heart). So, I was a bit disappointed that it was being a part of OS2. I still watched it and...yup, this became my least liked in the whole anthology series for OS2. I didn't care for any of the couples AND I didn't like how they put one of the supporting characters who was wooing Daonuea previously in a relationship, as it felt a bit forced for me. So, I didn't like the storyline nor could any of the characters saved it for me. So, I gave it a 5.5, just like it's original series.

Our Skyy 2: The Eclipse- This was my sixth liked in the anthology series. I felt like I just wasn't able to grasp it as much as I thought I could. But I did love the supporting characters and it was nice to see them again. As such, I gave this a 6.5/10.

Our Skyy 2: Vice Versa- I'm going to be honest here. I felt I would have liked this if I didn't watch the original series. And because I did, I really wasn't that excited in watching it and honestly, I felt bored. This is my seventh liked in the eight couples and I will give a rating of 6/10, just because it did not draw me in when I was watching it.

Our Skyy 2: My School President- I saw a lot of comments from people who did not like this series, as they felt robbed. I am basically the opposite because I actually liked how they did a multi universe and told us this is how it would happen in this universe. All of the characters still had their chemistry and I thoroughly enjoyed it. This was my third liked and I give this an 8.5/10.

Our Skyy 2: A Boss and A Babe- As was previously stated, this was airing while this anthology series was also airing. I wasn't in that big of a rush to watch it, but when I saw that it was apart of OS2, I buckled down and started to watch it. And imagine my surprise, because I actually liked this series. And OS2: A Boss and a Babe did not disappoint me. This was my fourth like din the whole series and I gave it an 8/10.

Our Skyy 2: Bad Buddy- I was super excited to see these guys again. And while I was a bit annoyed of the fact, they did a cross-over and unlike the previous episodes, they didn't have two full episodes for themselves, I have now come to the conclusion that this was actually a good move. I give them a 9/10. Also, I am going to miss these boys so much.

Our Skyy 2: ATOTS- I told myself this before I watched this seirs and I am saying it now- they knew what they did by leaving ATOTS last (because they saved the best for last). And while many of us may have found them to be a bit childish, we kind of know the reason now. I felt that they got the better ending and story. Except for a small flaw I had, I gave them a 9.5/10.

Acting/Cast-8/10
I actually have no flaws with the acting. I felt that they all did a stellar job in what they were given to work with. As such, I give them an 8/10.

Music-9/10
The music did not disappoint at all. It was nice hearing new songs. And then to hear the opening OST again just brought back memories to me. As such, I will give a 9/10.

Rewatch Valu-7.5/10
I actually do see myself rewatching this (especially the last four couples). I know that I really won't watch Star in My Mind, because as I have previously stated, I just don't like the original and was not feeling this at all. But I actually do see myself watching the other seven couples, especially Vice Versa and The Eclipse because maybe if I watched them over, I may give them a higher rating.

Overall-8/10
Overall, I liked this series and I know that I will miss some of the characters. And GMMTV has made it easy for some of us who don't want to watch all sixteen episodes where we can choose to watch whatever couples we want to.
