Peach Lover fails at the most basic level of storytelling.
Movement.Scenes feel written for much shorter runtimes. Instead of adding story or subtext, we inserts long pauses, slow our line delivery to a snails pace, and drag out eye contact.
Silence replaces writing with no depth beneath the pauses.
And, this isn't done for emotional reasons. Whoever wrote this, wrote weak dialogue. Whoever directed this, gave terrible directing instructions. This is not one bad actor, this is one failure of a production.
This show feels actively hostile to watching audiences. It demands patience, without offering payoff or anything of substance.
Not even the insane chemistry of the leads can save this disaster.

Two sides of the same obsession
Poise VS PassionSuguki must be in control of every aspect of his partner. Suzuki lives for the unbridled joy of dancing.
At first meeting, they clash together in a discordant mess of melody until they learn the tempo of each other and create a symphony beyond what either could achieve alone.
Tense and sensual, heart-racing and breath-taking.

Raw and Real
The truest depiction of queer struggles I have seen in a Thai BL. I struggle to even call this a BL and the cast has said the same thing. This fits much more in the realm of queer drama, which Be On Cloud has always had more of a foot into than the other main production houses.The beauty and pain of these characters made my heart aches in way I haven't felt since Love In The Big City or Let Free The Curse Of Taekwondo.
I hope Thailand can continue to follow Korea in risking it on these more drama-based stories that don't necessarily end happy.

Get Rid Of The Female Support Character
This show isn't anything amazing, but it is a cute enough watch. The main actor plays his naive character well, the main couple have they're cute moments, and the male support character even has his emotional scenes. But, like the title of the review says, get rid of the female support character. She adds nothing to the story except annoyance.I cannot believe the central threat of the show, the destruction of the earth, was solved by her incompetence. I was really hoping the writers were going for something like, the chef's grandmother (since they focused a lot on her in one episode) so was an Atlantean who married a human so he had a claim to deny the construction plans. But, it's just, the fsc trips and spills coffee on the world-ending device and that's somehow okay?? Write her out of the story and write a better ending.

REAL TRANSLATION NOW.
Until they give us proper translation and subtitling, instead of AI garbage, this gets 1 star.edit: It sucks that we had to fight for a proper translation, but now I can give a real rating.
Is this a masterpiece? No.
Is it even good? Not really.
But , I do commend the writers for sticking to the genre and all the weirdness that comes with omegaverse.
