Fluff with Supernatural Elements
I loved this series! For the kiddos, there's no SA, there is consent, healthy communication, legal marriage, what is there to hate? The actors because people wanted Ohm and Nanon and got Sea and Jimmy. Then viewers spent the next 12 weeks pining for Ohm and Nanon. My theory is, if Ohm and Nanon starred in this series, people would have gone nuts over it. Rant over.Jimmy and Sea did very well in this series. The acting was very good, and the parallels between the two universes are well done. The beauty of this story is, that Talay and Puen fell in love without even knowing the true face of their beloved. Talay could have been a 300 pound guy with pimples for all Puen knew. He didn't realize until after he loved Talay, that Talay was the person who gave him the bucket hat.
Another great part about this series were the friendships in this series. Even after Tess screwed up Talay's friendships, they still forgave him and moved forward. That's true friendship.
This is a great series if the viewer can not keep wishing for Ohm and Nanon. Jimmy and Sea were excellent in this series, and it's worth watching.

this show made me a hopeless romantic fr
just gonna add my two cents about this show i have a massive soft spot for. i was sooo excited to see jimmy being the lead role, it was actually the reason i watched it at first and i remember the first two episodes or so being like, is this going to be good? but i'm so happy i stuck by its side because it became SUCH a treat to watch weekly. jimmysea's chemistry is so good, they make me melt every single chance they get. plus jimmy is hella attractive ok i gotta say it. overall this show gave me sappy sweet emotional romance realness and i am forever blessed because of it. also!! there were parts that were so healing to me??? not just with the romance but the FRIENDSHIP. oh my god i love the friendships in this show. i ugly cried over them ok i was about to be devastated if the gang was gonna split up. tbh i ugly cried throughout this whole show i am NOT gonna lie i became so invested.i will say that some of the reoccurring issues between the 2 leads made me shake the computer aggressively towards the middle-end because i was like. didn't we go through this already??? but honestly everything was worth it. this whole show speaks volumes about romantic love, friendship love, even familial love, and it made my heart swell with happiness nostalgia pain bittersweetness and sometimes just sweetness. the atmosphere alone throughout the entire series is enough to make me feel so immersed.
anyways love these nerds i want them to be happy forever OKAY

Another great drama from Thailand!
First off, this was a crazy drama series. I love the special cameos of some very famous and well known actors throughout the series, it was refreshing to see and a real treat. Jimmy and Sea did amazing as Puen/Tun and Talay/Tess and the supporting cast were all wonderful as well. Doesn’t surprise me though because this drama series has some of the best Thai actors in my opinion. The plot line was fantastic. Quite interesting and somewhat complex, but definitely held your attention the entire time. This drama was filled with seriousness, sadness, happiness, and very cute moments. Highly recommend watching this drama series if you are hesitant on it. It is one of Thailand’s best BLs of 2022 in my honest opinion. Looking forward to what Jimmy and Sea have in store for us in the future.Was this review helpful to you?
GMMTV never disappoints
What a freaking great show!! I'm so happy that I waited it to finally air and watch it without waiting week to week. Everything is a spot on, storyline, casting, aesthetics.Coloring was done so well it really gaved a feeling that they really travelled to universes. Both of the universe had their own flaws given to it, where Peun and Talay traveled had a lot of neon and ligher colors. Weird differences between universes, like having coton candy cake for birthday parties and waiting for the candels to go off by themselves was just so interesting and episode to episode I was waiting for them to discover more and more differences.
Peun and Talay is my comfort couple! Their chemistry just flaws so well, it makes me want to get into relationship for real lol. No toxicity and unnecessary drama, they just understand what they've been through and make you believe that they are inseparable and bound for life.
I'm giving it full 10 stars despite that I didn't like how well people around them perceived thei changes, I mean two bodies exchanged their minds and thinking and everyone was just okay with that lol.
I could go on and on but I'll just leave it here. Hopefully somebody will read it and will be pushed to watch this damn good series.

ONE OF THE BEST ROMCOM SCIFI BL SERIES EVER
All I can say is that Vice Versa really did rewrote the history of ROMCOM SCIFI in the BL industry. The series talk about parallel universes which tackles different universe in the multitude of multiverse based on a Multiverse Theory. The one think I want to emphasize is that it really carry the show to being the best.Storyline and Plot.
The storyline and the plot are well-written. I am awed on how the story flowed in 12 Episodes. I mean the story of Peun and Talay is so promising that you will loved the show just by watching the first episode. The whole story will give you a roller-coaster ride and explosion of fellings and emotion. Not just the story but also the tiny details of the difference about the two universes, and also the similarities that it has to the other universes. I have read that this show was planned even after the author havent finished the story yet, but I can say that the storyline and the plot was perfectly thought through by the personalities behind it. Kudos!
Characters
The characters are very relatable and loveable. Peun and Talay with their flirty actions and eyes will make you shiver everytime they interact with each other. I always envy how they talk and interact with each other with loving eyes. AHHHHHHHH. The other side characters are so chaotic in a good funny way. I enjoyed the series alot because of them. The characters are very understanding towards each other. You wont see any toxicity in the series itself, as well as the characters. Every problem was solved by them and I admire that concept in a romantic series.
Cameos
OH MY GOD! Its like every episode of the series has cameos from GMMTV Artists and Shows. When the first came from the pilot episode occurred, I just jumped out from my seat because of excitement. HAHAHAHA I was very awed and happy because we get to see other people from other series. Forcebook, Gun, Perth, Tay, Mix and other artists, I was very surprised and I loved that GMMTV did that just to suprise their fans.
I dont really want to make this revew longer. All I can say is that, THIS IS NS OF THE BEST SHOW I HAVE WATCHED! I AM HOPING THAT WE STILL GET TO SEE JIMMYSEA IN A SERIES SOON!

SO SO GOOD!
Alexa, play "dandelions" by Ruth B.HELLO?? WHY is this so good and underhyped?? The plot? The acting? The cameos? The caracthers? The chemistry? THE EMOTIONS??? *chef's kiss*?? and the fact that I saw a little bit of myself represented in Talay's character? Loved it. LOVE.IT!!????
And I don't know why but I was so afraid of watching the last episode... I- IT WAS SO GOOD??? CRYSTAL CLEAR? Are you kidding me fgs??? (as yall can see I'm very emotional right now)
"The sand doesn't go..."
"Do you have any idea how long I waited for you to travel back here? I don't want time to go by without you from now on. I want to stop time right here. I want to stop our universal traveling. Just like the sand in this hourglass."
LISTEN. THIS IS YOUR SIGN. Not from the universe but from me! If you haven't watched Vice Versa GO WATCH IT!

After reading the synopsis and even after watching the first episode, I was a little worried that this was going to be overly complicated and confusing to watch. But it didn't take long to get the gist of what was going on and I'm glad I stuck with it because it was a very good series. It had an interesting and different premise than anything I've seen to date and it kept my attention the entire way through. There was just enough angst to keep the viewer invested and it wasn't the same old tropes of misunderstandings and miscommunication.One of the things that stood out to me was how clever the writing was. There was so much subtle symbolism; from the colors describing moods and the whole hourglass thing. I like when these kinds of hints and tidbits are woven throughout the journey and it shows a great attention to the little details in the storyline.
I would certainly recommend this series as it gave delivered a wide range of feels and thought provoking moments while still keeping to the standard BL formula.

Definitely Recommend!
This serie was one of the most adorable and unique BL's I've watched so far, the storyline is awesome and isn't like every other serie, different universes? Port keys? It's such a cool concept! I loved the acting and the cast so much, almost each episode had me on the edge of my seat. I grew so attached to it, had me sad to see it end! On the other hand I really suggest this title, It's adorable, cool, fantasy like genre, and doesn't just focus on the sex of a mlm relationship. It has an actual good consistent storyline. Such an emotional roller-coaster, don't think I've ever cried this much in a serie! Haha but don't be scared, it's such a great serie, I loved it, and I hope you grow to love it too.Was this review helpful to you?

There are a lot of mixed reactions of people to this drama. But if given a chance it is not that bad. I like that the concept is not typically and wholly based on college themes. And the universe travelling and the association of for them it's a really new and refreshing idea. like the way, they put on some famous BL series dialogue and the guest appearances of characters. love the whole multiversal and port keys thing. The way they show only the one who has transferred to the universe by exchanging looks makes it easy to understand. the chemistry between Jimmy and Sea makes viewers fall in love with them and little cute banter brings butterflies. it will be even better if we got a chance to see the spinoff about tess and pakorn in another universe.
As last two episodes, I feel like they finished them hurriedly or it does not give a satisfying result as it feels somehow incomplete, it feels like they could do more.
I do agree some of the scenes do seems illogical ...but it's a series not everything must make sense. even the whole multiversal and port keys thing does not make any sense but that's why we watch series for. for something that doesn't make any sense but makes you laugh and wonder what happened if it was really true. if anyone wants to watch a series, drama soap opera that makes sense then they should watch the documentary.
Not gonna lie I watch it cause of Bad Buddy but I don't regret watching it and love it.

Recommended to watch
Every bl series that I finish is a recommendation for many people to watch because I'm a kind of person that doesn't really like any series easily because many are not very good. I would say this series not my favorite but its recommend for who never watch it. I like the chemistry between these two main leads, this series are their first stepped to a main role lead. Next is on the acting/cast, which as I had said that they were new to acting main roles but they did a great job to really make us feel their emotion. Next is music, I like all the musics in this series, they really go into the tone and I like that both of the main cast sing it. Next is the story, overall it kind of good but not really what I really like, me personally I don't like series that people are just too in love and would kissed this many times, I just felt like its too sweet and it's too much. But others are great, it has an interesting plot. Overall is good to watch, recommended to someone to never watch it to try it.Was this review helpful to you?
We love a healthy couple.
I have a lot to say, OMG.Vice Versa has a very complicated plot, because of the storyline and many things happening, at first it's really hard to understand things, but that's not a real problem since even the characters were lost, so I am...
Fantasy it's not really easy to write, with a multiverse, it's more complicated. But I really like the way that this was organized because JittiRain and the screenwriters did a very good job. When I saw that it's the same screenwriting team from Bad Buddy, A Tale of Thousand Stars, and MSP... Makes sense! Their job is amazing. The fantasy part it's was well constructed. But what amazed me was the relationship construction.
About PuenTalay, because doesn't have stronger time indicators, you don't see the time passing in the series, until the characters mention it. And when you realize the time: They are a very slow-burn couple. But it's amazing because their relationship is very well developed. It's beautiful.
Their action was good! I think Sea (Talay) impressed me more than Jimmy (Puen), but they both did a good job! Their chemistry it's insane too, damn. And their kisses: they served.
The details were excellent too, the episodes with the color's names and everything on the episode based on the color were amazing and very smart. Cute, too.
Everything is good, and I will not go on a lower note bcs the series it's well done. But, it didn't amaze me SO MUCH. I really liked it, but I didn't LOVE it. Idk exactly why. My only little problem was with the open little details in the end, it's on purpose, but I personally don't like open things. But it's not a big deal.

disappointed
I had been hesitating for a while as to weather I should or should not start this series... and I guess I was correct to hesitatebecause this show was just so... boring.
First of all...I was hoping that we would get more interesting differences from the universes, they had such great opportunities to make it more interesting but it just fell flat... the differences of the universes were just so little and so... meaningless?? Like the counting, the birthday cake being cotton candy and beer being more expensive than wine. They also missed such a great opportunity to make Up's name in the other universe Down... cmon that would have been much better than Tup(at least in my opinion).
I had also hoped that we would get to see Ohm and Nanon a lot more that we actually did...
And that there would be a bigger focus on Tun and Tess... like... what were they doing for two whole years?! How would Tun who had never acted before be as good as Puen?! Just so disappointing to see. And how come Tun's and Tess friends and family who had known them their whole lives wouldn't question them acting COMPLETELY different than before??
I found myself so bored when watching the series and the endless ads did not help. Like 70% of the show is just ads.
This series is just a huge wasted potential and a very forgettable one at that. I feel like this show is more targeted towards straight cis women with their 'man' and 'woman' stereotypes.
