Gameboys Episode 9 Reactions
The actress who plays Risa did a fantastic job - she only had a short bit, but I fully bought into it.This is a lighter episode, even as it introduces a new conflict. It's a pleasure to watch Gav's patience and trust pay off as Cai opens up. Was good to see character growth with the "antagonists" of the story, and I really appreciate how realistic this is to life. Things keep happening, sometimes the characters can control them, sometimes they can't, they're all just doing their best.

This episode gave us another roller coaster of emotions. They first treated us with all the funny and romantic feels, and they gave us another plot twist. But it is a sign of great show, they will always keep us guessing.

When you are liberated, forgave and forgiven, AND accept who you are, you'll be as happy as Cairo. But why Bukidnon?

A bit of a breather from the heavy drama of previous episodes, Gameboys still shows consistent writing, directing, and acting.

Man, this episode really got me screaming with such happiness. The pillow and tshirt scene made me laugh so hard. And i just find their love so beautiful and adorable. The mother’s reason of moving out is understandable. I like how the writer put a new conflict but still related/based from previous conflict. It is not out of nowhere.The ending made me so happy but sad at the same time. They’re gonna meet but cairo will tell him about moving out. Man this episode... my emotions are all over the place. Butt he way we finally here cairo say "baby" endearly.. im dead again.

The title of this episode “Say it with love” is not just about Cairo saying “baby” with feelings. It’s the little gestures that show how much they care for each other. It was exemplified so many times in this episode.
- During the last part of the virtual travel, Gavreel’s eyes were just fixed on Cairo while smiling
- During the scene where Cairo was recording himself with the pillow, everything in that scene showed how much Cairo likes Gavreel
- During the last minute of this ep, they were able to express a mixture of emotions - excitement, longing, anticipation, etc without actually saying a word.

Just when we all thought it will be over by next week, we get news from Gameboys' Pinoy Reactors Meet that the series has been extended to 13 episodes. Frankly, I still don't know how I feel about it. Lol. But one thing I'm sure of, I really enjoyed Episode 9: Say It With Love. It was the cutest and sweetest episode of Gameboys. The pillows and the shirts got me giggling. Lol. While there were still some tearjerker scenes with, of all people, Terrence and Risa (both showed good acting by the way), it still was generally a fun episode. It was a bit cheesy but in a very endearing way. While the scenes with Terrence and Risa provided some sort of closures to their storylines, some storylines still need conclusion. Foremost of course is Cai and Gav's face-to-face meeting which should happen really soon. With the extension to 13 episodes, new storylines were also introduced. For example, who is Karleen Gregorio? Will her storyline extend to Pearl Next Door? Needless to say, the most surprising new storyline is Leila's request for her family to move to Bukidnon. I'm anxious on how they will resolve this new storyline. Production design, music, and editing were mostly ok. Initially, I didn't like the montage of touristy places that were shown because the graphics were not that seamless but after some more thought I realized that these places included Cairo, one of the places Cairo's parents wanted to visit and will not be able to visit anymore and with that, I think my heart skipped a beat. In a way, the montage also represented the Philippines and at the same time, it also showcased how international Gameboys has become. So, what's in store for Gameboys' Filipino and international fans in the next 4 episodes? Well, I'm excited and I can't wait for next week to come!
