The Eclipse (2022)

Good but could be much better.

4/10

-Neg:

1. Chadok Behaviour was too much.
2. The Sidecouple KhanThua was boring. There was not much showing.
3. The Kissing of the Maincouple AyanxAkk was very low and boring at the End of the Episodes. Only a few kisses were shown in the whole series of them.
4. The Rules.
5. The Teacher Dika died because of the stupid Rules. ( As far as I have understood correctly).
6. Sad that DikaChadok could not show their gay relationship in school.
7. There weren't really any Lovescenes.
8. I didn't like that the main couple kissed underwater. I imagined this in other places.
9. The Series was not implemented so well.


+Pos:

1. The Maincouple AyanxAkk
2. The Kissing of the Maincouple was in the middle of the Episodes very good.
3. Story.
4. Acting was fine.
5. It was a surprise that Teacher Dika and Chadok were a gay couple and fell in love at school.

Troppo semplice e stereotipato

Non riesco a dargli la sufficienza. I due protagonisti hanno una buona chimica, convincono e hanno delle scene molto sentite, ma tutto il resto....Non c'è. Non c'è una trama, è tutto estremamente semplice, ripetitivo, intuibile da subito e risolto in modo fin troppo sbrigativo senza una vera morale se non superficiale al massimo. Potevano ampliare l'indagine sul colpevole degli incidenti e renderla con più suspance, invce lo spettatore lo scopre quasi subito. Potevano creare suspance sulla scomparsa dell'ex professore e zio di Ayan, invece capiamo subito come è morto. Potevano giocare meglio sulla maledizione e magare far fare ai sovversivi altro che non fosse fare manifestazioni con cartelli ogni santa volta. Potevano evitare verso la fine il clichè della storia nella storia con il film nel film. Potevano fare tanto, ma non l'hanno fatto questo è il problema. Pigrizia? Temo di sì. Temo abbiano basato tutto sulla chimica dei protagonisti senza capire che anche il contorno è importante. Peccato perchè trovo che First (Akk) sia veramente un bravo attore, ma qui non può brillare data la sceneggiatura spicciola e stereotipata.

A good drama to watch

I loved this show. The actors were amazing, it made me follow their other work as well.

Ayan/khaotung is so spunky. I just love his attitude. Hes adorable. I love his teasing of Akk even though he knew he was up to no good he still was interested in the boy. He still protected him and took care of him. He was so sure in what he wanted. It was refreshing to see.

Akk/first - while he had pretty much the same expression the entire series (mix of a stattled bunny or deer in the headlights) he nailed the roll. Akk was doing what he thought would help the school. It wasnt right and he deserved to be punished. People could have seriously gotten hurt, but in his mind he did what he thought was right. I dont agree with him but im also not in the situation where i chose to go to a school that required rules like that.

The only thing i had a problem with was the faxt that in foreign countries Thailand inclided you get to pick where you enroll in high school. So why did the 3 boys (i forget their names) choose to enroll in a school that had rules that went against their beliefs other than to start issues? If you dont like the rules or strictness of a place then dont go. I mean the whole drama could have been avoided in the first place if they didnt enroll in a school they were morally against.

Other than that. Acting was pretty solid. Neo / khanlong has improved so much in the shows hes been in. If course we hinestlt coukd say that about all of the boys to be honest.

I know this show wasnt perfect and there are things that could have been corrected etc but it still holds a special place in my heart.

If you ask me what my love language is...its this series

This is the best BL that Thailand has ever put out, this series deals with the Asian Stigma that you're supposed to follow the rules and no questions asked, and it shows the kids trying to break free from that. While dealing with typical teenage things, meanwhile Ayan dealing with trying to figure out what happened to his uncle. A lot is going on but this series does it in a way that is not confusing or difficult to understand. There are also a lot of side characters but again, it's not confusing at all and you understand what is being said and you honestly fall in love with all the teenagers because you see a glimpse of their stories.

First and Koatung have to be two of the best actors to ever walk this earth, and you can't tell me otherwise. Their chemistry together is insane, they were made to act together. Both boys have so much emotional range within themselves it's crazy. They both can go from playing cute, dorky characters to dark, badass characters, in a matter of seconds. Every time they are on the screen I'm convinced that they aren't even acting, they are playing themselves, they are so comfortable on the screen together and I think the world would implode if they ever quit acting for whatever reason.

The same goes for Neo, he is a very versatile character, and he can play anything you throw at him. He can play cheesy, dorky, dopey, badass, anything and that's why he's such a good actor. He also can have chemistry with any actor as well, even if it is a female, and he never loses that charm. Pairing him with Louis was a smart choice because they both fit together just like First and Kao. I hope in the upcoming 2024, they continue to act together and bring that connection with them.

In conclusion, I think we need more BLs like this, so many try so hard to be "relatable" or they force connections between characters when we just need more like this, lot going on but we can understand it, Relatable not over the type and dramatized.

Don't drop this series yet!!

Eventho we're 3 episodes in, I still have no idea what is happening or what's the main protagonist's main purpose of transferring schools and doing all of the things he did. But from what I've grasped from the 3 eps is that everytime someone is going against the school rule, an almost supernatural-like force or being will try to harm them and they called this as the 'curse'. He is also trying to avenge his uncle's death that was a former teacher in the school that he got transferred to. I'm excited for what the next episodes had to offer and how are the character gonna develop so don't drop this series yet.

Many plot holes. Big spoiler alert

Watch this cause I like the chemistry between Khaotung Thanawat Ratanakitpaisan & First Kanaphan Puitrakul in Only Friends & this part of Our Skyy series. Must say this series have many plot holes that I don't like...

As usual the save or (+) point first:
+ The good teacher. How supportive teacher Sani is for the student development. Especially when she has the talk with Wasuwat / "Wat". She's one good teacher.
+ Everything gets better in the end.
+ The chemistry between Khaotung Thanawat Ratanakitpaisan & First Kanaphan Puitrakul. Even with questionable plot, I really like to see them together. Feel like friend that decided to have something more...

Overall watch this for ur fav actor or to complete our skyy series.... Hope nothing more.... Below this point is the plot holes with a lot of spoiler. Read with ur own risk!








==================================================
BIG SPOILER ALERT!!!!
==================================================

The plot holes:
- The way Akk and Ayan / eye get closer really question mark... I mean yeah I know they will eventually be closer & having relationships, that's the set up.... But how one pair bickering individual just having feelings & helping each other is not something I get caught on. It just feel the director decided this is the time to make u guys couple, and they become couple...
- We lack explanation about Khanlong / "Khan" & Thuaphu / "Thua" relationships. Why at first Khan try to avoid Thua like he is the plague for him. Yeah I know we get a little hint here & there they talk about them being an 'item' & Khan just bother at first. And that's also the weird relationship between Khan & Thua until the last scene. Never really understand the dilemma in Khan heart nor i think they fit for each other.
- The curse itself. OMG..... They never really bothered to explain to us about the CURSE. What is that? How it appeared? Why it happened? Who it targeted for? Yeah yeah I know they, once again, give a little hint here and there about the curse, but never really directly tell us. Why don't they use the chance when Eye enter as new student to explained to him & us about the curse...
- Teacher Dika. OMG... This also one important character that they never really bothered to tell us the back story of him. Once again, only a little here & there & finally the big reveal in the end. I need more..... More story of him.... Like how he give impact to Akk & other student, how he became good teacher & everyone remember... Something like that...
- The pressure that the school put into the student. And the bad guy here is teacher Chadok. Never really understand the pride in the name of Suppalo school and all its rule...
- The 3 'bad' kids that always protest. I mean what's their deal... Why they protest about the school rule. What I can get from their protest only 1, they don't want to wear school uniform & nothing else. I mean yeah I understand if the school rule is just too strict or the lesson just too heavy or something meaningful for student to be protest about. But I don't see or get how the school rule too strict for student in Suppalo. I mean they still allowed the students to protest & make demo in school, how that's a strict school... & why these trio must always protest for school rule.... I don't get it. Even when the narrative already been swifted in the end, the trio want school to investigate the incident that happen to them. In my opinion these trio still have no base for protest...
- The night patrol... Why they do it...? Even worse, make student do it. Although only prefect do it still make no sense. They still student & underage kids in the first place, no teacher or adult accompanied them, what if something DID happen to them, who'll responsible for them... Why the need to do the night patrol in the first place is really question mark.... It's school for God sake!!! Who's ever see their school have/do night patrol...? See doesn’t make sense...

Ok that's the plot holes i can think of.

Sorry not sorry

This bl was just bland and boring for me. The acting was mid but the story fell flat for me. Everything was just out of place and to a point certain dramatisation of the story was wrong. I just couldn't make a sense of the story and that made it frustrating for me. I just felt like it was a total waste of time. I couldn't even watch them in our skyy.
And then there was chemistry between the actors but it just couldn't save the day i mean Akk and Ayan’s scenes can’t carry this series on their back. Their chemistry cant make up for the lack of story. In all it was such a disappointment. it started so well and went downhill so fast. the final was so boring everything sucked except acting of casts and alittle bit of firstkhao chemistry. i loved casual intimacy of their couple and the uniforms were also boring

I really tried

I really, really tried to watch it. I love firstkhao and I wanted to watch the side couple's story too, but I just can't take this seriously. The school is supposedly very strict and has tons of rules, but the only rules we see in the six episodes are the rules about wearing uniforms and not using phones. We never see the very strict rules of the school, the kids have been protesting for just one of these two rules for six episodes and they just look funny. I studied at a boarding school in high school and it was truly one of the worst experiences of my life. It was a school with really stifling rules that interfered with every minute of our lives, there was also great academic pressure on us, and I was really depressed because of school. I guess those who wrote the script do not have such experience because I cannot take what is happening in this school seriously. Of course, maybe the problem is cultural difference, but there are examples of this type of schools from all over the world.

The most realistic scene of the series was the psychological violence inflicted on Ayan by the teachers. They handled it very superficially though. I know from my personal experience and from the news I have seen that although a very good series could have been created, it did not happen because they dealt with the subject too superficially. Don't people know that really terrible things can happen in schools? If the real events related to the subject being tried to be discussed here were investigated and reflected in the series, a really good work could be produced. I'm really sorry that this series could have been a masterpiece but it wasn't.
