it surprised me had low expectation but turns out to be so so good

so i have seen just 3 episodes and its one of the best 2026 dramas so far ... i don't like cheating plot-lines so i did not watch it when it came out but recently i watched FLOWER OF EVIL i really like the negative male character who is ML in this drama so i was like i should give it a shot as i really really like him and i have seen him in so many dramas that too in popular dramas but he is always side character ... to me surprise he is so so good in this and the story and first three episode are from different characters perceptive i just binge watched 3 episodes will finished it today over the weekend ... dropped between steps for this.

just give it a shot characters are so unique just a reminder .... do not judge the cheating aspect

The maniac review

You Maniac isn't just a drama; it's an experience! ❤️‍🔥

From Dean's shameless flirting to Moth's stubborn resistance, every interaction between them brings a different kind of excitement. What starts as a game slowly becomes a complicated journey of emotions, and that's what makes their relationship so captivating. WilliamEst's chemistry adds another dimension to the story, making even their smallest interactions memorable.

I especially love how different Dean and Moth are and how their differences create both conflict and attraction. They're frustrating, unpredictable, and sometimes impossible to understand, but that's precisely why I want to keep watching.

This series has its flaws, but the chemistry, character dynamics, and emotional possibilities make it worth following. I'm excited to see how their relationship develops and whether they'll finally understand what they're feeling.

WilliamEst, DeanMoth, and this beautiful chaos have officially taken over my heart! 🦋❤️‍🔥

Exceeded my expectations

Watching the trailer i was not expecting this series to be this good to be honest lol. Hmmm i think it's been awhile since I've really watched a good bl series. The chemistry is good, the OST is good, the pace of the plot is good, i love the character development and the acting oh I love their acting and I'm not even being dramatic here. Overall this series exceeded my expectations and I've even re-watched several times already because why not and trust me every episode is a rollercoaster ride you never know what to expect next from these two red flags. Would truly recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good bl series.

You Maniac is one of those series that pulls you into its world and makes you want to keep watching

You Maniac is one of those series that pulls you into its world and makes you want to keep watching. What makes this series truly special is how human and realistic the characters feel. They aren't perfect people who always make the right decisions; they have their own flaws, emotions, insecurities, and struggles, which make them feel incredibly real and relatable. You can understand their actions even when they make mistakes, and that's what makes their journey so interesting to follow.

William and Est have done a wonderful job bringing their characters to life. Their acting feels natural, and the chemistry between them makes every interaction more captivating. It's not just about the romantic moments; it's also about the little expressions, unspoken feelings, emotional vulnerability, and the way their characters gradually connect with each other. Their relationship feels more meaningful because you get to see the people behind those feelings, with all their imperfections and emotions.

The storytelling keeps you invested in the characters and curious about what will happen next. You find yourself smiling at their happy moments, feeling their pain during difficult ones, and wanting to understand them better as the story unfolds. The characters stay with you even after an episode ends, which is a testament to how well they're written and portrayed.

If you're looking for a series with realistic, multidimensional characters, beautiful chemistry, emotional depth, and performances that make you genuinely care about the people you're watching, You Maniac is absolutely worth giving a chance. Sometimes, the most beautiful stories aren't about perfect people but about imperfect humans trying to understand themselves, their feelings, and each other. And that's what makes You Maniac such a memorable watch.

Mesmerizing acting and beautiful shots

Payback the Series has completely pulled me in. The leads’ performances are mesmerizing; the way they shift between quiet vulnerability and restrained longing makes Sun and Jay’s bond feel so real. Every lingering look and faint tremor feels genuine, and I find myself fully lost in their story. The camerawork is elegant, gently framing every charged moment between them. The soundtrack wraps around the scenes beautifully, deepening every subtle emotion. It is such a compelling watch, and I cannot stop thinking about their incredible on-screen chemistry.❤️❤️❤️

I like the way these 2 new actor's interaction

This is not the 1st Thai tv series I watched, but literally the 1st one I want so much to recommend to people around me. Admittedly, the 1st thing I got attracted to was Minlee(Sun)'s face lol, but when I moved on with the plot, (Toptap)Jay's joining actually makes this series more intriguing to watch.
The plot itself was not too bad, but to deliver too many things in the comics within 10 episodes is too rushy(they should make a longer one). Music matches the mood at ALL!
I love these two young guys, especially I knew afterwards this was their first TV series. Good acting! And most importantly, they two actually match with each other, and their aura perfectly fits too! Please play more roles together!!!
Some of the settings are really beautiful, I even screenshot those as my desktop lol.

Why watch You Maniac?are these two really Maniacs or two broken people who has the mask of Maniacs??

You Maniac is one of the most human and realistic series i've come across. With most series it seems like, these things only happen in a fictional world. But with You Maniac every emotion and situation feels so relatable to real life. Nothing feels unreal because these are emotions and experiences that people go through in real

WilliamEst as DeanMoth have portrayed their characters so beautifully capturing their complexities vulnerabilities, and emotions so convincing. One of the finest actors they are... so please don't miss this masterpiece..

Cheating, abusive or sexually abusive are not traits of red flags.. they are crimes and people who does those are criminals..

This is one of the best Slice of life drama.. so please make sure to watch this masterpiece

More Than What People Choose to See

One thing I’ve noticed about YouManiac is that many people are missing the actual point of the story. They see red flags and immediately label the series should be toxic, forgetting that portraying flawed characters is not the same as glorifying their flaws. The story explores complicated emotions, past wounds, unhealthy patterns, personal growth, and what happens when people begin to understand themselves and each other and up to Ep8 YouManiac has shown us that there is so much more to this story than red flags and complicated relationships.

Dean’s journey is about more than his attitude or the way he handles relationships. Beneath his behaviour is someone who needs genuine connection and someone who takes him seriously. Watching him gradually realise that he doesn’t have to keep proving himself to people who don’t truly value him makes his character development meaningful. Moth, on the other hand, has his own past to confront and learn to let go of. By Episode 8, seeing him become more comfortable with Dean, take his hand, and move forward with him shows how much their relationship has evolved.

And then there’s Moth. Honestly, how many people in real life would have the patience to deal with someone like him huh? Loving someone isn’t always the difficult part no, sometimes it’s dealing with their attitude, understanding their behaviour and trying to navigate the emotional complications that come with them. Moth is a reminder that being the person who receives affection doesn’t mean you’re automatically the easier person to love. It takes a certain level of patience to deal with someone whose personality and behaviour can challenge the relationship and not everyone would be willing to endure that.

I think one thing people keep misunderstanding about YouManiac is the idea of a red flag. So many people automatically equate red flags with toxicity, as if someone who displays red-flag traits cannot also be sweet, loving, attentive, or genuinely affectionate. But that is exactly what makes this series so interesting.

Red flags don’t always come in the form of someone who treats you badly every second of the day. Sometimes, they are the same people who make you feel loved, return your affection, remember the little things, and give you moments that make you question whether they are really as problematic as people say. They can be charming, caring, and sincere in certain moments, and that doesn’t automatically erase the warning signs.

What makes YouManiac interesting is that it challenges the way we categorise people. The person who openly displays red flags might not necessarily be the only one with problematic traits. Sometimes, the person who appears sweeter, calmer or more reasonable can have their own issues that are less obvious. The person who looks like the bigger red flag isn’t always the only one you should be paying attention to.

And that’s why I appreciate what William and Est are doing with these characters. Their portrayal makes you look beyond surface level labels and pay attention to the dynamics between them. You can enjoy their sweet moments while still recognising their flaws. You can understand a character without excusing everything they do.

Not every red flag is automatically an abusive person, just as being sweet doesn’t automatically make someone healthy. There’s a difference between recognising a character’s flaws and reducing their entire personality to those flaws.

Perhaps that’s why YouManiac receives so much criticism. Some people have already decided what the story means before looking closely at what it is actually showing us. And with so many people genuinely loving the series, perhaps they find it difficult to understand why audiences are drawn to characters they have already dismissed.

You don’t have to agree with the people who love the show but pls make sure you truly understand the character before judging the story. A red flag is a warning sign, not a complete character description.

WilliamEst, you really understood the assignment! I can’t wait to watch the remaining 2Ep.

The character portrayals, acting, and directing in you maniac deserve so much appreciation. The subtle expressions and emotional depth make the characters feel so real. 🥹❤️‍🩹

One thing I really appreciate about you maniac is how the characters are brought to life through the actors' performances. Dean and Moth have completely different personalities, and William and Est do a great job portraying those differences without making their characters feel one-dimensional. Dean's playful, flirtatious attitude and Moth's guarded, unpredictable nature create such an interesting dynamic. The expressions, body language, and little reactions add depth to their interactions, making their characters even more compelling to watch.

And lastly, est looks so ridiculously pretty in this series. his visuals, expressions, and the way he carries moth's character are just 😭😭 he's genuinely so captivating on screen. I could watch him all day. 🥹🤍
