Our space is where we dare to be ourselves and feel comfortable with it
I was so excited about this one! The preview showed Akk and Aye giving us Brokeback Mountain vibes and I was living for it. The Eclipse was a series that tackled some serious issues, and while they used a book (1984 by George Orwell) as a reflection of things in the main series, they seem to be going for movies in Our Skyy 2.
I have mixed feelings about their hyperfocus on movies though. Filming the short movie didn’t really play a big role in the main series until the end, so I find it interesting that this is something they decided to focus on so much. I like how they used Brokeback Mountain as a teaching moment, with Akk and Aye discussing it. But the movie scenes we saw later were not my favorites. I didn’t really like the comedic ones for Akk & Aye and Kan & Thua. I did like what they did with the screen sizes though, it made a clear cut between fantasy and reality.
I do like what they did with Akk and Aye having problems. The two got together at an extremely turbulent time in their lives, so while the two got very deep and personal, there were things that they didn’t really get familiar with. The two are different, have always been, and that is both good and bad. I know people always say opposites attract (and they often do), but they never say how much compromising is required to make such relationship work. So, it being at least hinted at in the series, is something I really appreciate.
I absolutely love the friendship between Akk, Kan and Wat. The three are so supportive of each other. They might not be family by blood, but they are family by choice. The transition from high school to university is though, so seeing them talk about it fits in with he story very well.
Kan and Thua are adorable together. Thua was not my favorite character, but I really like seeing the cute moments between the two. To be honest, there were a ton of cute moments between Akk and Aye too. I really love how relaxed First and Khao are with one another, and that really shows through their interactions in the series as well.
The filming locations are beautiful. As is the special OST, I absolutely love it!
All I can say is that Akk and Aye (and First and Khao) have became our space a long time ago. A space that they (and many other series) created for us. Something I will be forever grateful for.
