orangutan Story is coming along. I am impressed by the professional quality of the design, photography and direction. The school band scenes were well performed and no attempt was made to disguise the off-key singing, which was realistic. The cast do a good job, especially the lead boy New playing Fou4Mod, who has to show a lot of differet moods, being sometimes like a child when with his classmates, sometimes confident, and in this episode vulnerable. The attention given to false nails and stickers seems juvenile to me, but I am not Generation Z! The cast are mostly older than their characters, which is usual, but Pide who plays Chian has a very masculine face and shaved facial hair and looks significantly older than New. There is only 3 years difference, but in the last scene it looked like a man and a boy together.

Make It Right 2026 Episode 4
0 people found this review helpful
This review is just for Ep1 - Ep4, which is as far as I have got. Of the current 3 or 4 school BLs (August 2026), this has the strongest plot and characters, but it is toned down from the 2016 series. The lead boy playing Fuse (real age 16) has an attractive smiling personality. Some of the other characters around him like the blond-haired one are believable. But what Fuse sees in Tee is anyone's guess, because Tee in these episodes is so wooden and unsmiling. He is obviously older (the actor is 21) and has a deep voice. That need not matter, but the withdrawn personality portrayed is just unlikely to attract an active, naturally happy boy like Fuse.

Class Crush Crisis Episode 1
0 people found this review helpful
The cast are young and very nice. You can't fault them and their enthusiasm. The plot is uncomplicated so far (up to Ep5). Nothing much has really happened. There is none of the drama of Make It Right or Love Sick. The humour is quite light. In a way that is refreshing. One odd thing is that the speech is dubbed, presumably by the same actors, and there is no background noise, whether the scenes are in the condo, in school, or around Bangkok. They can run about in the school noiselessly (no school was ever this quiet), doors open silently, traffic passes in the street without a sound.

Make It Right 2026 Episode 1
0 people found this review helpful
First episode is pretty good, Each of the 2016 cast stood out larger than life, but the 2026 characters are not so well defined and are less humorous than the 2016 cast. Some of the script was very contrived, with actions which do not follow from previous actions, like the scene in the restaurant where the owner's trousers are pulled down.The new Wit so far is too weak a character here. The two leads Fuse and Tee have almost fixed expressions. Fuse looks bewildered and wide-eyed. Tee mostly looks wooden and unhappy. It reminds me of Love Sick 2024, where Phun played by Almond looked miserable through most of the series whatever happened. It is the director's job to make the actors express the characters.
