This maybe the one of most cringey show I've ever watched.

A RomCom from top to bottom. If you can get over all the cringey mushy stuff, you'll appreciate it's entertainment value. Romance + Comedy + Fight Scenes, is a very good formula of a good show.

This shows how familial love/loyalty can be more than just about blood. How real love should be, or how it can overcome social status or even gender.

It was funny to see a straight guy fall for a man, how he struggled to understand his feelings.. ML and FL started as sworn brothers, from being each other's support system to falling in love. Luckily for him, it turns out that she's a girl after all.

The supporting characters were fun to watch too. The show gave a bit of a backstory for our characters really well.

These long journey is worth watching..

Complex story line with profound character developments. Even the somewhat minor characters were given beautiful subplots. Thus making it super long.

ML and FL've been through so much together and even when they were apart. They were immortals, in their long life, they've experienced multiple trials and triumphs.

Throughout the whole story many things happened to them. In our FL case, from student to god, from mortal to immortal, from being loved to being lost and broken. With the ML, it was about his journey of falling in love with a mortal, to losing her, to finding love again. They've experienced different kinds of sacrifices and betrayals. It was just a blessing that they still managed to have each other in the end. It's really hard to explain, so just go and see for yourself.

Oh the son of the main lead is really entertaining. His innocence is refreshing to see.

This one is really good & well written, it left no room for a sequel

This one is really good. It is well written. So good, there's no room for a sequel..

Albeit their unusual profession, this story is very realistic with very mundane issues. It is very refreshing. No crazy Ex's. No evil in-laws. No end of the world drama.

Main lead actors do look great on screen and can act really well. Oh and the kissing scenes were done beautifully, you can actually feel like they really like what they're doing.

ML and FL were classmates. FL likes ML and chases after him. Nothing over the top though, just the usual typical highschool crush young love variety. A decade later they've met again. They're living in two very different worlds and was working hard to achieve their dreams.

It was fun to watch their story unfold. How they managed to fall in love and adopt to each other's lives. Started as friends hanging out with each other. Then came the ML's confused feelings and insecurities, like how he's not good enough for FL. He ended up hurting her and pushing her away.

After while, their lives move on but she was still constantly on his mind. He tried to make amends and when she replied it was ok because it doesn't matter anymore, it scared him. It finally made him realize that he likes her and he's losing her. Then he pursued her until she relented.

From unrequited love, to pursuing their dreams, to falling in love. From overcoming differences and daily life challenges, to successfully being in each other's lives. It was so realistically beautiful.

A well written sequel for "LOBO"

As this is a sequel and 2nd installment of the moonstone trilogy, it started out strong with great backstory for viewers to enjoy. Also, the backstory's really good for those who haven't seen the 1st part but interested.

It was heartbreaking to see the happy ending we've had on "Lobo", shattered at the beginning of this one. Death after death, that's what the FL had to endure growing up. She was branded as a traitor by her own people. Her family's legacy was also stolen from her. But not for long..

FL met ML as a child, then they were separated by tragedy. Met again as adults. Had a lot of push and pull until they managed to fall in love.

After that, revelations of their fate started to come to light. They were supposed to be on the opposing sides, one was to lead the "lobo" race and the other was to lead the vamps. Later on they've learned of their doctored fate. It was manipulated, not that they were destined to kill each other. It was that their great love brought life to a great evil. They fought for each other, for their love. They fought against each other, for their race. They fought together, for peace on every races.

I knew

Wow. This is one's really good. Story wise, it's a classic revenge themed drama. Not so fresh, but still entertaining enough because it was done just right.

Nowadays, tv drama tends to be too long with too many filler episodes. But with this one, maybe it could've use a few more. Like a bit more back story for the police captain and what happened after the whole shebang. Or a bit more time to fall in love, before that bullet straight to the head. A little bit of conclusion could've been better.

To be honest, it was really obvious who was the villain since episode 1. It was painful to see FL, go through the trauma of tragically losing her father. And as an adult, it was painful to see her lose everything. Every truth that she believed in, every pain that she held close to her heart, and even the man she could've loved.

This show has a classic plot, very good fight sequences and a little bit pull on the heart strings. I wouldn't mind rewatching this again or watching a sequel if ever there's one.

Entertaining enough, funny at times but sometimes really hard to watch.

Bored. Specially with the first few episodes. Typical story, ML is narcissistic domineering borderline cruel male while FL is like suffering from Stockholm syndrome. She has lost her memories due to a traumatic past. They fell in love but ML turns out that he was involved with her parents deaths. Sounds super familiar right? They fought each other and they fought together until they suceeded, they've won their happy ending

Unrealistic story. Entertaining enough, funny at times but sometimes really hard to watch. Some really good fight scenes. Acting wise, I think only the main characters were good. Short back story, no complex subplots. There's only the ML, the FL and the love triangle. Skipped a lot just to endure some filler scenes. Re-watch value is really really low for this one..

Roller coaster ride of an epic love story..

The length of this series is seriously scary. Story was so complex, even the last episode left some other pieces of the puzzle for the viewers.

A roller coaster ride of an epic love story. Great actors, even their characters were well written. Subplots and secondary characters were also entertaining. This story is written to make people believe in love again, a testament of sorts that love is worth fighting for..

Might not watch this again in the next two years only because of its length. But definitely didn't regret watching it and don't mind rewatching it.

I think I like this better than The Devil Judge

A complex story without being convoluted. This has the right formula as it has a ML who's a bit rough around the edges but definitely with a good heart. And a FL who's a sweet loving daughter with a power punch for those who deserve it.

Actors played their role really well, even the supporting characters and their subplots were entertaining to watch. There's not much character development in here. They are who they were even from the start. Take the ML for example, he was a nice and wise kid turned into a crafty and a bit unconventional lawyer. A FL lawyer who's not weak and helpless but with a caring heart and a steel core. I also like the familial loyalty and love shown in the show. From a child to their parents, a parent to a child, to brother and sister relationship.

Action packed crime/mystery series with enough romance, drama and comedy to make the story interesting. And the best thing, this has a happy ending. Justice is served. I wouldnt mind if theres a second season.

Action packed family drama

Definitely a long ride, not convoluted, it is a complex story with plenty twist and turns. Action packed family drama, which can touch your heart strings and make you laugh from time to time. Plenty of fight scenes too.

Story started with an amnesiac, searching for her true self. Asking herself, is she good or evil. Torn between duty and the family she thought she had. Constantly fighting the internal battle and trying to do good.

All star casting, veteran actors and quality new stars. Even supporting characters have interesting stories to tell. My fave episodes would be the one when FL met her biological parents and knew that she's been stolen as a kid.

I love the show. The only reason I didnt give it a perfect score, is the rewatch value. I cannot rewatch it anytime I want because its very long.

Nostalgic. Complex characters. A little convoluted but still beautifully done.

One of Philippines finest TeleNovela.

Story wise, it has its ups and downs. Its so long, some of the episodes feels like a filler episode. Then some of them can arguably called master piece.

Characters wise, beautifully casted. Mixture of veteran actors and new breed casts. The development of each key characters are done right. Interesting backstory. Characters from this show become iconic. So iconic it has already a remake.

Love story was epic, though a bit convoluted with its own twist and turn. So glad everyone has their own version of happy ending.

A SciFi beautifully done with enough realistic touch to make it scary believable.

A SciFi beautifully done with enough realistic touch to make it scary believable.

The reality is that the world would eventually die if we do nothing to take care of it, in this series, it's the lack of water..

Then enter the SciFi part, searching for solution and finding it on the face of the moon. The creator of the show did a really good job in showcasing human nature's innate sense of self preservation. The day to day challenge of doing what's morally acceptable, all in the name of the greater good..

The only thing lacking with this show is a bit love story, to add a bit heart or warmth to the show. It is a bit too dark, only a bit of hope was shown at the last few minutes of the show.

Training Special Warfare should've been the title..

The plot of the show was really interesting at first, I'm really into it. I like the premise, girl power and all. The creator made a reasonable backstory for main characters to show the reasons for the decisions they've made.

Then it gets a bit draggy. I mean the training part, it took too many episodes to my liking. At pisode 11, they're still training. Nothings happening but training.

Episode 17, and surprise surprise, they're still training. I had to remind my self that the title of this show was "Operation Special Warfare" and not "Training Special Warfare".

This elite team is supposed to fight against terrorists, but all they did up to this point is to train and fight each other. To prove themselves worthy over and over again.

Episode 19, finally had some terrorist action.. Episode 29, training again. The story gets on and on about the life of the soldiers revolving around training most of the time, then their pain and sacrifices.

A great love story that can even surpass time and all tragic events life has to offer.

Over all, it's really a good story with well written plots and subplots for the televiewers to enjoy. But just like other shows in this genre, it had a bitter sweet ending.

The story started hundreds of years ago from one jilted lover to another. The ML and FL were just victims of this tragic events. They did nothing wrong but to love each other unconditionally.

Their challenges continue even to the modern times. It was fun seeing them being friends as teens then seeing them again sa adults, from friends to lovers.

I am okay with the whole journey, except maybe the last episode. I think it's unnecessary and cruel to end it that way.

Right blend of RomCom, suspense/crime/mystery to make a very entertaining story

Right blend of RomCom, suspense/crime/mystery to make a very entertaining story.

Being connected by a tragic past is nothing new with this type of genre but it's still very refreshing, not having a jilted best friend turned evil. It has a straight forward love story, from their tragic past to meeting again by accident, to being friends then turned to lovers.

What was weird was the mystery part. For televiewers, knows who's the main villain for most part of the story while the so called detectives goes round and round on finding the culprit.

I like the actors, I think they gave theirs characters justice. Even the ML and FL had a good on screen chemistry.

This show is so sinister, title could've been Sin to Love instead.

The first few episodes are so boring I almost dropped the show. I think I skipped so much more than I watched.

This show is so sinister, it should be tagged as deception, suicide, frame-up, cover-up, kidnapping, arson, and it even has coercion/blackmail in it. So if you're looking for something to pass time and make your heat flutter, then this one is not for you.

I saw the ML actor on Love is Sweet, so I thought I would also love this one. But I was so wrong. Acting wise, I think the show was saved by the 2nd ML. He did a really good job acting the role of a love crazed villain. From a very caring brother in law to a very obsessed twisted man real quick. I'll take brutality, gruesome action sequence that usually ends in death anytime over this.

The sweetness of the ML and the FL is so short, it felt a bit mediocre to me.
