Must Watch!
You Maniac is a thrilling masterpiece that redefines red-flag romance. William and Est deliver powerhouse performances with absolutely sizzling, magnetic chemistry. The stellar supporting cast, anchored by Barcode and Kin, adds incredible narrative depth. Visuals and a pulse-pounding score capture every bit of the unhinged energy. Masterful direction weaves these elements into a high-caliber production.Was this review helpful to you?

Plain delicious and full of electric tension!! William-Est shine in diametrically opposite avtars
What an epic start!!! Est and William seem all set to prove that they can do all kinds of roles with equal ease!BL-needle Score: 8.5. High BL-ness
Off course I was looking forward to the next from William-Est after the delicious ThamePo...and they dont disappoint at all! This is almost diametrically opposite of what they played in ThamePo...coy, sincere and having integrity to a fault....William plays an out and out playboy with very questionable romantic integrity and constantly leading people on...even though he does seem to convey that the engagements are light-hearted flirting and ONS only, for obvious reasons he leaves behind hurt people and people who think he took them for a ride...in other words, a full-on RED FLAG..........and Est is least interested in romantic overtures, professional to the tee, looks at anyone who sends out romantic tentacles with a lot of suspicion and annoyance, and anyone trying to flirt gets an almost brutal rebuttal from him......it does look like love and romance is very special to him....
With such polar opposite characters that Est and William play, their face-off is going to be really exciting!! And then with so many cross-connections of A loving, B, B loving C and so on, we can very well expect deliciously messy thrills!!!
Verdict: Yes, Watch!!

The Chemistry is sizzling in here !!!
I was so anxiously waiting for You maniac and the first episode is everything and more . I love the chemistry and the way williamest are making the characters come alive . I was even more excited hearing the ost , I feel like it has really set the mood . Though I had an idea what to expect to happen from the trailers and stuff , the ost and it's mv was what really laid the groundwork for the vision for me. I don't want to watch something sad if there is which I know there will be but I can't help myself . I can't wait for the next episodes !!!!!Was this review helpful to you?
I've been waiting for this and this series is soooo GOOD!
When I first saw this trailer I knew I was going to like it, the tension, the characters and the plot sounds quite interesting to me and oh did they served! Like Im literally salvaging each episodes, this series is like my source of motivation after a whole week of depressing work. If you're reading this I will give you 2 reasons on why you should watch this series with me and along side thousands of people!First, you don't really get to watch good red flags characters, sometimes they either go off the rails which means the character doesn't connect with the plot or the character does something dumb repeatedly to the point you as a viewer just decides to stop. But so far, the tensions are rising and the characters aligns with the plot which is good.
Second it's WilliamEst, their acting is really good, they have good chemistry together and somehow made me emotional even through this piece of screen. If i did managed to convinced you welcome! We can both watch this together and motivate each other to get through the roughest days of the week. Can't wait for more episodes to be released and thank you for reading :)

So good!!!
I have to be honest. I watched this episode because a lot of people were talking about it. And my oh my the story, the acting and the visuals are all outstanding. This is the first series where I’ve actually fallen for all 4 characters from the get go. But my I need to give a special mention to Est Supha, not only is that man drop dead gorgeous but his acting skills are exceptional. The way he portrays his emotions with his facial expressions is just 10/10. Plus the way he plays this cold aloof character but yet still show’s moments of vulnerability when he is with his friend Pun. I honestly can’t wait to discover his background story.Was this review helpful to you?
Series of the year
You Maniac — The Best Series I’ve Ever Watched ❤️🔥I genuinely don’t know how I’m supposed to move on from You Maniac. This wasn’t just a series I watched—it was an experience that completely took over my mind. From the very first episode, I was hooked, and by the end, I was emotionally attached to everything: the characters, their chemistry, the story, the tension, and every single little moment between them.
What makes You Maniac so special is the way it keeps you wanting more. The storyline is addictive, unpredictable, and perfectly balanced with romance, drama, tension, and those moments that make you scream at your screen. Every episode felt like an emotional rollercoaster, and somehow, I never wanted it to stop.
And the characters??? Absolutely insane. Their chemistry was on another level. The way they looked at each other, the small gestures, the tension, the emotional scenes—I was DONE. 😭❤️🔥 You can literally feel the connection between them through the screen. They had me smiling one second and losing my mind the next.
I also loved how the story made me emotionally invested instead of giving us romance for the sake of romance. Every moment felt meaningful, and the characters actually made me CARE about what happened to them.
Calling You Maniac “good” feels like an understatement. This is the kind of series that leaves you with a massive post-series emptiness because nothing else feels interesting afterward. I finished it and immediately wanted to rewatch it.
Series of the year. No debate. 10/10. ❤️🔥
You Maniac, you officially own a piece of my heart. Now how am I supposed to survive after this? 😭

SO Good
You Maniac completely exceeded my expectations. The script, direction, cinematography, and production are all so well done, but the acting is definitely the highlight.Barcode Kin brings a lot of charm and depth to his character. William is so natural and captivating, his expressions make his character really engaging to watch. And Est Supha as Moth? Absolutely amazing. His micro-expressions and eye acting are incredible. He makes Moth’s guarded and vulnerable sides feel so real without overacting. His chemistry with William is also insane, the tension is everything.
overall 1000/10
