Boston has always frustrated me... very minimal this season but he still had me on edges because I had no ounce of trust in him. Despite everything I loved BostonNick in season 1. A part of me is so glad that Boston finally saw that Nick was happy with someone else because that's the guy he lost and he deserved it. But there's a part of me which is slightly sad and Nick lightly patting Boston is also more than what Boston deserves after all that rollercoaster. And I know Boston doesn't deserve a hug not from Nick at least but I wanted them to hug T^T.
I as clear as the day remember how Mew kicked Boston into the pool. That was such a satisfying scene. This season I want someone to kick Jack into the pool just like that. Like go do whatever with Dean or anyone else and spare Raffy. I can not see Rome hurt.. I can not see Raffy hurt too and there he is using Raffy at his own convenience. I know I might be biased but aahhh that was frustrating. And Jack deserved all those punches from Rome and more.
RomeRaffy had me crying TT^TT. ArnoldTua had me screaming. JackDean had me frustrated. And Win's entry had me screaming and jumping and shouting Nick Nick and there came Nick and yess yess Boston that's the guy you lost T^T.
How is it that I’m still not over H2H? I genuinely love it so much. I've watched and rewatched certain scenes so many times that I don't even need subtitles anymore for those scenes- I can still understand what they're saying. At this point, I've even memorized some of the Thai dialogues.
This episode was something else. For the first time in a while, it wasn't just Rome and Raffy caught in the fire...everyone was feeling it.
And maybe this makes me sound a little wicked, but seeing Jack and Dean burn with the aftermath of whatever went down at the camp, even though nothing really happened, was oddly satisfying. Don't get me wrong, I do like JackDean, but RomeRaffy have been my Roman Empire since episode one. Watching Jack and Dean, directly or indirectly, play into so many of Rome and Raffy's arguments has been frustrating. I know Raffy isn't exactly innocent, but when it comes to Rome and Raffy, I'm completely biased- I'll admit it.
And Tua.. he had me in a chokehold this episode. He's so soft, so precious, and seeing him get hurt in the middle of all this chaos just made everything hit even harder. And Boston surprised me and he is still a jerk but yess he is not someone who takes advantage of someone drunk.
And that preview- Jack, oh Jack... please not again. And Raffy, please don't get pulled in different directions again. Just... Rome. Stick with Rome. Seeing his expression I do feel like he's going to chose Rome but no matter what somehow Rome's going to be hurt again, isn't he?
I enjoyed this drama up until the five-year time leap. The first half was engaging. However, after the leap, the pacing noticeably suffered... it felt rushed, as though too many developments were compressed into too little time.
The latter half also leaned heavily into tragedy. While emotional depth is one of the show's strengths, the rapid succession of hardships made it difficult to fully connect with each moment. Instead of feeling deeply moved, I found myself somewhat detached, as the emotional beats didn't have enough space to truly land.
That said, I still think it's worth a watch, especially for the first half, which is compelling and well-executed. It just doesn't quite maintain that same level of impact all the way through.
Wahhhhh it's here. I thought 2026 lineup was going air only after all the 2025 lineup was over but guess not. And I ain't complaining. I can't wait to see this. The trailer looked so good.
I won’t call you resentful, I’d call you western. As an Asian myself, no matter how bad our parents are, we…
This is a cultural flaw and like you said it's toxic but this is very Asian society coded. Honestly I hated how Pai forgave his grandpa and his parents so easily, but I know even if it's me, I would be the same.
I honestly am not bothered by how the series showed almost no angst between Tim and Pai. Yes, Tim scammed Pai in a major way- that part can't be ignored- but it's also true that by the time Tim married Pai, he had already abandoned the scam emotionally and morally. I know Pai was the one who suffered the consequences. He was the one hurt, yet he was also the one who lost everything overnight.
I understand why some viewers felt disappointed by the minimal separation and emotional fallout. But, Pai had nothing left, and Tim simply refused to let him face that emptiness alone. And when almost everyone else disappeared- even Pai's own family- Tim stayed. Despite Pai's lingering doubts, all he could see in those moments was sincerity. And maybe that's why their closeness didn't feel unrealistic to me; when everything else fell apart, Tim was the only one who remained.
The story could have easily taken the angst route, with Tim trying to stay while Pai pushed him away and acted cold. Pai does try, in his own way- but he isn't truly capable of being cold. Around Tim, he simply melts, and that emotional pull feels completely in character for him. Also, maybe because I've been watching so many angst-heavy stories lately, but this felt like a genuine breath of fresh air. Instead of prolonged pain and distance, the series chose quiet closeness and emotional presence.
It was a crazy ride. It had me frustrated and on the edge. I won't say it was perfect because it wasn't especially after the time leap, it felt rushed. They built up our frustration towards Kelvin quite a lot but when it came to redemption, there should have been more. The redemption arc fell short because this is one of those rarest bls where I genuinely questioned how the leads ending up together would even make sense because damn the things Kelvin had done were just unforgivable. However, I won't say I didn't like the ending. Overall this had me invested and nothing beats their chemistry.
Exactly how I felt watching the series omg I love how you put everything into just the right words, this was such…
Same honestly. I started it with almost no expectations, and somehow it just took over my brain. Even months after it has ended, I'm still stuck in Head 2 Head.
