YYY (2020)

You're either going to REALLY like it or hate it

Absolutely chaotic, and exactly what you need if you're looking for just nonsense entertainment. I started watching this because of Talay (Pun) since I really liked him in My Engineer. I liked the whole cast, but I rated it low because of the acting. It's not bad, and fits exactly with the route this show wanted to go so in that sense it's actually good! But I'm just not a big fan of overacting, so this comment is mainly towards the characters of the boss and minions (and also Yuri). YYY isn't funny per se, but that's okay. It doesn't brand itself as funny, but as carefree, ridiculous and extremely nonsensical. All of these things it does perfectly! The story itself isn't special, it just contains a lot of twists and turns which make it interesting. I like the overall vibe of it all, and it looks like the cast had a great time filming this, since it just looks like a group of friends doing some comedy improv. Last but not least, I LOVE the opening song. Like the show, it's just fun and nonsense but it honestly slaps.

This is what I imagine a Yaoi lover's LSD dream would look like. True to the disclaimer in the beginning, YYY is all chaotic energy. It is well produced, and kudos to all the actors/actress for maintaining a straight face throughout all the absolutely ridiculous scenes. I'm honestly not sure how the two boys did it in the end space suit scene.

If I had to say one thing about this series, it would be probably be that it's short, sweet, and to the point. I loved the short words about love at the end of each episode, and all the characters contributed to the overall storyline. This short drama follows the lives of several tenants in an all boys apartment building. The landlord is Yaoi loving and crazy, which leads to a lot of fun and out of the blue scenarios. The music is fun, and humor in YYY is wild and off the wall.

If chaotic humor and BL is your thing, then this is probably for you.

Molto carina

YYY è una serie semplice, senza troppe pretese, divertente e anche coinvolgente. Molte parti della trama sono volutamente senza senso, a volte anche deliranti, il che rende la storia a suo modo originale.

Alcuni dei personaggi sono davvero ben riusciti: basta pensare a Porpla, Wang Chao e Mahan, che in questo contesto sono i personaggi più azzeccati. Purtroppo però ci sono anche personaggi che non mi hanno affatto entusiasmato: come Yuri, soprattutto a causa di una certa cosa, verso la fine della serie. Non mi hanno entusiasmato nemmeno Chino e Grab, si sono visti poco, e da quel poco che li ho visti non mi sono sembrati niente di che.

Gli attori mi sono piaciuti molto, alcuni più di altri. Ho adorato Porpla, ma anche Pun, Wang Chao, Mahan e Yuri. Ovviamente era un tipo di recitazione "esagerata", ma che ho apprezzato molto in questo contesto.

La opening è una delle cose che più ho adorato. Molto orecchiabile, ma che allo stesso tempo rispecchiava il mood della serie.

Ho apprezzato anche i riferimenti alla serie Why R U. Anche se abbastanza numerosi, non ho mai pensato fossero delle cose buttate lì a caso, azzeccato soprattutto il momento in cui facevano partire le canzoni di Why R U.

Gli effetti sonori erano simpatici, anche se a volte li ho trovati eccessivi.

Questa non è assolutamente una storia perfetta, ci sono alcune parti che non mi hanno convinto, ma nel complesso è una serie divertente, da guardare tranquillamente per passare il tempo, la consiglio volentieri.

Diferente

Lo que mas resalta y rescato de esta serie es que es diferente a las demás ,es una comedia en su totalidad , con elementos de fantasía en todos sus capítulos y diversidad de personajes , aunque la historia de por si es sencilla y corta , saca carcajadas.Los personajes de Porpla y Pun son los que mas me gustaron , el primero por la variedad de facetas que tenia , y el segundo por ser el mas común dentro de todos, y aun asi ser parte de un todo.
El OST es muy pegadizo y las actuaciones no son relevantes debido al tipo de serie que es .
Si quieres ver algo distinto la recomiendo , con su variedad de sucesos irreales e incluso absurdos pasaras un buen rato.

A little crazy

Story
Personally I like stories that have plot and this one....was all over the place. Funny like to the point of pissing myself but all over the place. It was super funny and sometimes to the point that my second hand embarrassment kicking in a lot.

Acting/Cast
I don't know how the heck they staying in character. They should have been rolling around in laughter. The cast too my gosh I love LayLay and Yoon. Their chemistry out of this world ;).

Music
The OST is so bouncy. Makes me want to get up and have a dance battle. It is soooooooo good.

Overall
I loved every couple and it was hilarious. 10/10. WATCH!!!!!!!!

Okay so when I first saw the sitcom I though it was kinda dumb and all but then I decided to give it a try. After watching episode one I fell deep in love with the sitcom. It is amazing and truly a work of art.
STORY
Story wise it’s amazing. From the characters to the plots and drama. It contains just the right amount of comedy as well as romance. The plot is interesting but not over bearing. The comedy is funny but not over dramatic. The romance is great and sweet. This sitcom really manage to put together just the right amount of everything.

ACTING and CAST
The cast is amazing. That all I have to say. Each of the characters are quirky and fun. The actors them self not only look amazing but also have amazing acting skills considering that to most of the cast it’s only their first or 2nd series. The acting is believable and funny making you fall I love with their characters. And the main couple look so well together and have amazing cemetery.

MUSIC
The amount of time I have listened to the OST is over the top. It’s currently one of my go to songs for studying or working out. It have such a unique beat that really pulls it alway from traditional Bl songs. I also love how they use songs from Why r u and Make it right.

REWATCH VALUE the rewatch value is amazing. I can rewatch this sitcom at least 100 times. When every I’m having a bad day after watching a few episode it really makes me smile.

All in all please give this series a try. The cast, story and production is all amazing. I know some people are actually hesitant to watch this series as they think it’s a sitcom so it contains no romance but that’s wrong. To be real I think this sitcom compare to so Bl series actually contain more romance and fluffy moment. It’s still amaze me how they can balance romance and comedy so well. So give this series a try cause it’s a 10/10 for me :)

I watched this for Talay and it was cute! Definitely a chaotic story that wasn't really my style, but I did find the romance adorable (if albeit a little rushed and out of nowhere). The story is fairly basic, though in my opinion there isn't much of a plot or anything "going on." For the most part it's all character-based, but the characters themselves aren't developed that much either. Then again it's only 6 episodes so they can't be blamed for that.

The acting wasn't really my style either; I'm not a fan of hyper-exaggeration that borders on bad acting. I know it was done for comedic effect (hence the canned laughter peppered throughout) and also to amp up the ridiculousness, but it just wasn't for me. I think a lot of people will find it enjoyable and fun, though. The story - and entire drama - isn't that serious, though it seems like they're toying with somewhat serious subject matter.

As for the ending...uh. No idea how I feel about that. It's an open ending - not happy, not sad - and it's a good thing there'll be a season 2 because I'm hoping for more answers and definitely more character development. I love Talay to pieces so I'll watch anything he's in, even if I didn't fully enjoy this as much as I wanted to.

Meh...

I've heard how YYY has big crackhead energy but that it also has a lot of heart and explores deep themes, so I had to watch it!

It started off strong! It was different. I liked it! Unfortunately, the crackhead energy of the tenants' antics didn't translate to its central story. The series quickly became aimless and predictable though barely entertaining enough to keep my attention. The only story there really is is the budding relationship between Nott and Pun, which isn't shown often and thus, feels rushed (though it is just 6 episodes so it's understandable). I was also so bored by their relationship by the end and was itching for the last episode to be done. But rather the show concentrates on ridiculous subplots that don't make any sense and aren't funny (at times). A simple standard story about roommates falling in love each other. It does bring up some important truths though like being honest and the importance of communication.

Pretty cool seeing Lay again after My Engineer. And I also liked how they worshiped Why R U in this series. I wonder if there's a connection between the two shows. Same production company maybe?

To be honest, YYY is probably my least favourite BL series at the moment...

Mood/pace is amazing

Everyone should definitely give this sitcom a try as a new taste.It has one of the most unexpectable outcomes of each events yet each and every cast manage to play their role very well.
And I think it's unrealistically realistic; every character may be a tad be mad, but they each hold a story that turn them into who they are. And I like how it isn't entirely based on romance, it based on choices people make based on their own life experiences, people around them and dreams/goals in life. "relationships doesn't only involve two person"

Personally, this I find this better than Tonhon Chonlatee, and yes I kinda group them in a similar category. Give a try, no regrets if you're in humor!
