What a breath of fresh air
There are no-doubt small minded people who feel love, and especially bl, should only be about holding hand an accidental touching. But love can be challenging, dangerous, adventurous and and out of our control. This Bl has boldly taken it upon itself to show this different angle and play with our emotions while watching the unconventional. It does so without letting go of humor and its easy going vibe.Even as a love story it is above average but I sincerely hope they manage to find a way to make both characters aware of the divers aspects of love in an empowered way. The amazing chemistry between the main actors and the convincing way they portrait the characters would then definitely make this bl one to remember for many years.

yet another bl with lack of consent...
I pondered giving the drama a chance because of the secondary couple, but honestly the main "storyline" is impossible to ignore. Even if Rain did it on purpose to get close to Payu or whatever spoilers I've seen from novel readers, the constant "no"s and pushing away from Rain that Payu ignored... It's absolutely insane how people will try to find excuses for this kind of thing, but not surprising since it's the same target audience as "tharntype". Absolutely terrible, lack of an actual plot and just s*x. The target audience is no other than straight cis women.Was this review helpful to you?
Perfect depiction of sexual abuse... by the main characters.
Sadly, Rain and Prayu's relationship is based on full-on sexual assault. Rain says no, and Prayu keeps going. Rain says no over and over again. Prayu approaches him over and over again. When someone holds something over your head to make you do something, that is force. When Prayu is in the bathroom and he makes Rain say sweet things to him by threatening him with the others finding out, that’s forcing Rain to do something without his consent. Him running his hands up and down Rain’s body until Rain stops fighting? That is 110% assault. If someone says no, it’s no, if someone holds something over your head until you say yes, that’s still not consent = that’s still a no. If someone runs their hands up and down your body until you stop pushing them away, that is still not consent. Imagine this was your brother. If you’re watching your brother get pinned up against the wall by someone to who he owes money, and they run their hands (and pretty much their mouth) up and down his body while your brother pushes them away, saying no over and over again, would you cheer when your brother gives up? And would you like to see the person manipulating your brother start dating him? Your heart would break for him. I’ve seen friends experience this, and one of them currently has an ex-husband in jail for sexual assault and possession of illegal firearms. And she met him at a drag race (Coincidentally)Was this review helpful to you?
Till Now.......
This story is divided into 2 parts as per my guess first half episodes are concentrated on one couple and 2nd half of another couple, I like this way as it concentrates on both couples without overpowering each other, and screen timing issues won't arise.Phayu is really a good senior who guides his juniors in the right direction, you can see he is guiding his partner to concentrate on both his studies and relationship and also teaches the importance of student duty, I like how he portrayed if necessary you need to give importance to your studies more than your feelings and how he was there in the entire journey supporting him
Rain improved much more after Phayu came into his life, both love each other, and both compromised for each other that's how the relationship works. There is no perfect couple as people say, a couple is happy because they love each other, respect each other, and consider each other whenever anything arises most of all communicate with each other.
It is also not true that few couples understand just by looking at each other NO no one can do that, no one has mind reading capability
This story has a lot to tell, don't be shy on expressing your feelings, not only to your partner, to your parents, your friends etc....
Note: I will edit it after watching the second couple and what story they are going to share with us

Review for: Payu and Rain arc
Oh my god! Love In The Air: Payu and Rain is the bitch. They ran and pushed forth as one of my favourite bls for this year. I was originally going to wait until Nov to watch this series in a binge way. But one of my friends said that the first main couple's story was done now. So I decided to watch it right away. To be frank, I only started watching this show yesterday and I finished Payu and Rain's plot already, which were episodes 1-7. The reason I put the 9 on the story segment is because I feel like yea there are parts that don't make sense especially in episode 7. If you know, you know ahahah. Anyway, that part didn’t really bother me too much, I kinda skip my way away from what happened. So yes, in a way I kinda did shut off my brain regarding certain part of the plot. I guess the reason why some of the plot holes didn't bother me too much is because of how great the actors are in this series. If I am being honest, if the casts were only giving 'mid' tier or poor acting, I would have probably dropped this series just purely based on the plot. BUT since the casts carried the show and I just want to say how excellent the chemistry is between Payu and Rain.
In terms of their relationship, this might be one of Mame's least toxic unhealthy legal-friendly relationship that she has written. To be honest, I tend to avoid any dramas that she is involved just because of how unhealthy and how uncomfortable I felt in her other dramas I gave a shot. In which, I ultimately dropped. I don't know I just can't tolerate cheating and really pushy behaviours. However, for this one, Mame did a pretty good job in keeping Payu&Rain's relationship healthier.
I am so excited for Sky's arc to unfold so I will be back on Nov-ish... unless I get busy with other things. Anyways, until then soldiers!

I really like it! ...until episode 7
I only watched the first 7 episodes because I was warned off of the rest of the series for some pretty serious reasons. The beginning of this couple's romance was sus as hell on both sides, but I feel they eventually met in the middle in a gay parlay. I will NOT be watching the entirety of this series, so it is complete to me. (which is why the highest I feel I can score is a 7. it would be higher as a consensual red flag romance if these first 7 episodes were standalone.)Was this review helpful to you?

In my opinion one of the worst bl I have seen
In my opinion this is one of the worst bl I have ever seen...The story is very bad and the acting is not very good, expect when they make love?
The story and acting made my head boil because I cant stand childish adults who acts like they are lil kids who complains about everything and acts stupid.
I see Rain like one of those adults..
I like the main couple's chemistry if there is even any other couples!
But still I think Rain acts like little child who cant do anything without his lover...
I have seen so much better series so this didn't hit me °3°
I think lita is one of those series that you love OR hate

Everyone should give it a chance and decide for themselves!! Great Chemistry!
Considering it is a MAME story, there are obvious elements that many do not agree with and some parts that you may feel uncomfortable. It is honestly better than most MAME novels. Some may say its harassment and that Payu was too pushy and invading... Some may disagree saying that Rain is equally attracted to Phayu and that Phayu never crossed the line ultimately....he teased the hell out of him though. I believe it should be upto the viewer to decide and that everyone should give this series a try to decide whether they will enjoy it or not. Choosing to go by reviews won't really do justice. I also believe not watching the series will not do justice to the second main couple whose story will not begin until ep 7 or 8. Sky/Prapai story also seems so fun and enjoyable with more emotional depth than Rain/payu story which is more lighthearted and on the fun side.But even when arguments fly one thing is for sure that the cast did a great job portraying their roles and the chemistry between the Boss and Noeul is fire!! Even if there are elements that can spark heated arguments in the first 2 episodes, ep 3 was honestly so soft and sweet.
Watching the episodes felt like time was flying by way too fast. It has got me hooked and is strangely addictive!!

Here Mame Go Again
Whenever a series has the name Mame next to it, i should honestly expect what's going to happen. I've never seen someone be so obsessed with gay people being nonconsensual with each other that every book they write has to contain those scenes constantly. Why does she keep getting adaptations when she's just setting the community back decades?Two episodes in and I can bet the whole series is just Rain saying he doesn't wanna have sex with Payu and Payu forcing him to do it anyway and then boom relationship at the end, its every Mame series that woman has problems. Stop adapting her horrible books!

It was fun to watch, loved bossnoeul part the most
I really liked the first couple chemistry and I feel like it wasn't the best idea to separate the 2 stories, because you'll inevitably compare the 2. And if you really liked the first couple, having them almost completely disappear, it can be hard to stay interested in the second storyline. And even tho the second couple was quite decent, in comparison to the first one it was a bit disappointing. They all did a great job considering they aren't veteran actors, but acting and chemistry wise boosnoeul were largely on top. It's too bad cause at first I really liked this series, even with some scene with really bad production and the problematic part of it ( I admit all my favorites series are a bit problematic, because I like the realistic side of it, love can be problematic and it's a reality for me, no relationship is perfect and flawless) but in the end it was hard to keep my interest up. It was still enjoyable, especially payurain arc.Was this review helpful to you?
Amazing series if you are young enough
I usually read the reviews before starting a drama...and so I did for this series and tbh sometimes yall reviwers are a bit too harsh...LIKE NO TRY TO ENJOY AT TIMES RATHER THAN JUST COMPLAINING
If you want something not too intense yet captivating this drama is for you
More or less all dramas have some faults...and LITA is no exception
it contains SA,toxic ex so..if you are not comfortable I'd simply ask you to AVOID
You'll probably like this series if You are Young enough....by young I mean if you like teenagish stories or wattpad kinda things
HOWEVER ITS A LEGITIMATE 18+ SERIES
you'll see lot of spicy scenes..which were definately not unecessary as some may suggest
I did found them concerning at times but deserve a solid 8/10

Just awesome. highly recommend
one of the best bl's I would recommend for a newbie. worth watching. I love the actors. they're just perfect. no one could do better. The couples have made it so good and funny. I'm in love with BossNoeul and FortPeat. the way Peat acts feels like you're really in this plot and it's so real. like whenever Sky cries I feel like I would burst into tears. it feels so real. and the BossNoeul scene where 'Payu smacks 'rain's butt, OMFG, I was rolling on the floor. it's so good. I recommend it fow newbies to bl.Was this review helpful to you?
