Don't be quick to judge. Hear me out.

Okay i will be very honest and review this drama the best i can. To me it was a balanced show. Why i chose the word balance and yet gave it a perfect score allow me to explain. There was so much going on, so much that half the time i was lost wondering what on earth did i just watch, what the hell just happened and who is with who.
The story was overrally poorly written and poorly developed and some of the characters were so shallow and just added more chaos to the whole story.
This drama is mainly based on 2 couples. I will dare to say kudos to the writer and director. I am i contradicting myself and again hear me out. I will start with TorFighter. If you allow me to separate the storyline and rate it separately i gave their parts full marks. Their characters were so well written and developed that i could actually pace with them as their relationship developed from sexual tension filled animosity to heartfelt confessions of longing and love. It felt so real and the tension was palatable from the spiteful glares and body language to the passionate kisses and hard on seduction. I could see the conflict and doubt tormenting these two, the depth of their love and how they got to be were they were. I finished this drama because of these 2 and at the same time i was trying to make sense of everything else going on. Their acting is next level. Their physical and emotional chemistry oozed off my screen. I dont want this review to turn into an erotica so i will end here.
Now coming to SaifahZon. Well..... i am not very sure what to say honestly. I am not sure is it the script or the directing or the acting itself, the chemistry or a lack of it. Be the judge.What i do know is there were sweet moments and i will be like awww and there were moments i would just cringe and cringe some more.
The other gay side couple? I don't even know what to say because i don't know what i watched i don't know who was with who? Who was with Blue?
At times it was so hard to try and keep up with what was going on especially in Zon's gang. At times everything was utter chaos and i would struggle to make sense of what just happened. Many scenes left me baffled but one in particular left me picking up my jaw from the ground. How can one's feelings miraculously and instantly be switched from one guy to the next esp when they took their time to show us the beginning of the relationship and its challenges. I mean crying about this guy who just broke your heart on this other guy's shoulder and contemplating means and ways to make him take you back then the very next second BOOOOM. I was like wtf....

Okay to sum up this gibberish i will say this show is must watch. If you thought TharnType were the holy grail in BL drama then you might want to see TorFighter and think again. Disregard all the noise and chaos around and focus on Tor and Fighter, thats were the show is, that's were my 10 for the review is. Yes covid 19 restrictions made things difficult but i still believe the side stories were poorly written and developed and it has nothing to do with covid19.
Would i rewatch this? Oh yes definitely i would.
I know this review is all over the place, contradicting and confusing this is how the show made me feel....confused and in love.
I will come back with my last review ep 13.
PS...
I just finished watching the last episode. I have basically said all i need to say and there isn'tanything left. Like i said before its a bit far fetched to blame covid 19. I will say ep 13 was pure fan service. This drama could have ended at 12 episodes.
I will give them a benefit of doubt and assume covid-19 restricted them from wrapping up the story nicely but still say the story had great potential but was poorly executed. The 1st 2 episodes were hilarious the concept was funny and refreshing but soon went downhill.
With or without restrictions i wasn't expecting much any way.
