No words can describe how beautiful this fantasy BL is.
For those who are wondering, this serie is a *happy ending*The cinematography, the coloring, the camera angles, the scenes, the setting, the actors, everything is beautiful down to the writing. It may seem confusing at first when the plot is read or heard from another source, but I tell you, when you watch it, everything flows so perfectly.
This series also had my most favorite episode 11 ever. No more episode 11 curse. This series' episode 11 is so nicely written and the acting of the actors are so heart-wrenching, I can feel that I am in their shoes. I cried a lot.
Some little points that I think lacks is the kissing scenes. Yes it is long, but most of the time their hands are hanging in their sides especially talay's. It is beautiful in the video, but I cannot seem to feel the love in those kisses. They are just plain kisses. Though when they do not kiss, I can see better acting. I can then feel the longing and the love. I hope the actors grow more on that part.
Overall, I love love love this series. Their cinematography is almost like ITSAY, and the writing has the beauty of Theory of Love. Such a great author! Also, there are no cringey words, cliche tropes, and a second couple that overshadows the main couple. So I definitely recommend you to watch this!

Gostosinho de assisitir; não precisa pensar muito, só curtir! E talvez chorar um pouco..
De fato a série traz um conceito diferente dos outros BL's, o que pode cativar bastante no início, mas não à todos.Vale ressaltar que é um BL para as pessoas que assistem BL à muito tempokjhkk tem muitos easter eggs e atores que aparecem que você só vai sentir o "impacto" se você assistiu a outros Thai BL's famosos.
Enfim! As cenas entre Talay e Puen foram bem fofinhas e lindinhas! Dá pra sentir uma química diferente entre eles, eles não são um casal clichê de BL. As cenas de amor ( beijinhos, flerte e abraços ) foram lindíssimas também! E ficaram melhor ainda quando os sentimentos foram recíprocos.
A atuação dos dois principais foram incrivéis! O Jimmy olhava pro Sea de uma forma tão linda. O Puen tão lindinho e maravilhado pelo fato de que o Talay tava xonadinho nele sem nem mesmo saber quem ele é de fato nomnom. E o Sea é um ator novo, mas dá pra ver que ele é bastante talentoso!!
Visualmente também é uma série muito bonita. O fato de cada episódio se dedicar a uma cor e essa cor sendo usada no episódio é bastante prazeroso de se ver.
Mas não posso deixar de sentir que faltou alguma coisa. De fato a série parece que tem uns furos em cenas, como se faltasse alguma coisa pra encaixar lá. Senti que poderia ter aproveitado mais do plot, ter adicionado alguma coisa que explicasse o porquê das trocas de corpo e etc..
Ademais, foi uma série gostosinha de assistir!

Love in the most unexpected place❤️
I wasn't expecting a lot when I started it , but it was adorable. It is very different from the regular BLs with a unique storyline.Although I would have loved to know more about the specifics of the multiverse or why or what triggers the shift, but still I was satisfied ❤️
The best part about it is that it didn't leave us hanging . We got to know what was happening in both the universe at the end. Love with a lot of lotuses :giggle: (if ya'll get the reference . I promise this isn't a spoiler. Just a little teaser I guess) Give it a try . You won't be disappointed. Just go in without a second thought❤️

Very sweet and romantic, definitely worth a watch
I don't understand the real reason people are not enjoying it, the story of Puen and Talay is really adorable. The multiverse/supernatural thing is really interesting and there were scenes where my heart skipped a beat! It's not full of suspence but it has some important points: the fated encounter between the two main characters ad the fact that their destinies are linked no matter what. The purity of the feelings Puen has for Talay and that this one gets to understand with time, the bond with their friends and them always having each other's back. The importance of a family that supports you (Puen didn't want to leave the other universe cause even if he didn't have his life as an actor and had way less money, he had a family is that one, Pakorn's) and the importance of the person of your life above everything. Acting was really good, especially Jimmy's. It took me a bit to like Talay's character because he was that kind who is always a "no, no" in the beginning (Akk, I'm looking at you rn lol) but in the end you could tell he really loved Puen. The aesthetic of the colors was really pretty and the fact that the pink is their 'together' color, I mean that's really cute. Honestly I'm really hoping for a season two on Aou and Fuse, I'd be so up for it. We already know Aou has a counterpart in PuenTalay's universe, sooooo :) but also if it does not have a sequel I'm totally fine because Puen and Talay's story is perfect the way it is and everything can be left like that. By the way I highly recommend it, I loved it! Only thing I wasn't a big fan of was the dynamic of Tess and Pakorn, I really wanted to know what happened to them while being on the other universe, I know they were not the main characters but I mean PuenTalay lived as them for two years.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

It was alright, but that's about it.
Okay, so let's start with this first. I was very interested in the concept of this drama. I'm totally into fantasy and sci-fi b/c it forces writers to be smart. Creating an entire universe is not easy and it takes A LOT of nuances. So I was excited to see what they were going to come up with in the end. What they came up with was nothing, besides a few differences no big changes in this new universe. Fine, we move. But as things continue I see there was literally nothing else that had to do with fantasy AT ALL. It was just so weird, how such a concept had absolutely no follow through except for literally three episodes. It was sad. However, I am open to things not going the way I thought in dramas as long as it's still interesting and fun. I will say this drama did have fun moments but none of them were interesting.It was a boring drama, with nothing of merit happening in the background of the relationship b/t the leads. Which, again, I think you can get away with if the couple is super interesting, super fun, super cute, and super hot. Now Puen and Talay were so adorable and they definitely had their moments that made me laugh and cry (ep 9 was my fav), BUT they were not that interesting as a couple. It's the truth.
So all in all, it was okay. Which sucks because they really could have really went for it with this drama but it seems like they just held back on so much. Even Sea and Jimmy seemed like they were holding back, which made some moments seem awkward and look uncomfortable. They made up for it by having sweet moments together that definitely made me say "awwww." But this drama only has moments nothing much more beyond that.

it's not what it could have been, but ...
For sure it's not what it could have been, but now that it's over I'm not sure if it ever could have been acurately placed into film. My readers digest conclusion is that we ( the audience) fell in love with the actors who played Puen and Talay (Sea and Jimmy) they fall in love with each other and we have a happy ending. Makes for a great BL series. As intruging as the plot was I'm not sure if would ever really work in film series or movie. I think it may be too diffult.The secondary cast was also very strong. Up Kita Fuse Aou just great charcters and all very likebale. Aslo the female charcters were all very strong and well played in my opnion. I actually think that Ohm and Nanom may have been more distracting. For those whom think it started out good and went wrong I'll challenege them to take a second look and think about it from the end and go to the beginiing. For all it's complications I very much enjoyed this series.

Interesting universe swap concept with unfulfilled potential
Vice Versa is one of the more aesthetically pleasing shows produced by GMMTV. And although it may be a body switch BL, thankfully, you don’t actually need to do any mental gymnastics to figure out who’s who. (GMMTV is kind enough to use the actual characters in most scenes even though they’re really in someone else’s body.)Science fiction lovers, however, may be a little disappointed to know that the show flounders a little when it comes to the science and logic of its story – in short, there are obvious plot holes. Personally, I thought this was a shame. Vice Versa presented a fantastic opportunity for GMMTV to explore new genres and push the boundaries of storytelling.
Most of the episodes are filled with fluffy scenes of Jimmy and Sea spending time with each other, or their gang going about their lives trying to produce a movie. It's a great JimmySea debut given that their chemistry is excellent. However, the show would have been far more holistic if it also showed the other side of the swap – what happened to Tess and Tun in the other universe, and how are they holding up in their portkey search? Much of the science fiction is backloaded in the final episodes, when I would have liked to see it throughout the series.
Still a great BL with pretty solid acting, though.

Most Underrated Series
This series has what most popular and overhyped BL series lack nowadays: plot and concept.And I know some of you really like to nitpick a lot just because you don't dig much deeper and only want to see the series the way you all wanted to see it, but this series is GOOD and GIVING.
This series is great since it's brand new, exciting, and has something to offer. It offers more story, conflict, message, and development in just five episodes than the majority of series this year put together. The characters are so relatable, so human, and understandable.
When I went to Twitter, I thought there was a lot of anticipation about this series, but it's actually very underrated. But if the reason why it is so underrated is because it has a refreshing plot, then the world of BL is not really ready for some progress...
This era literally went back to hyping series like TT and others...
Anyways, Vice Versa is for people who like good storylines and are open-minded, invested in watching some series, and progress. Although it is not flawless, because there is no such thing as a perfect series, I still do think it deserves more recognition.
To add, I never thought Jimmy and Sea would have this much chemistry. I frowned at first, but then they really surprised the hell out of me. Also, for a rookie, Sea's acting skills are amazing and Jimmy is improving a lot (better than his performance in Bad Buddy).

Terribly insipid
We had a good subject that was different from the ordinary - this story of parallel worlds. The problem is that instead of focusing on it, the series only concentrates on an umpteenth uninventive love story drowned in countless product placements, each one longer than the next, which GMMTV has unfortunately made a specialty of (it's at the same level as in FISH UPON THE SKY, that's for sure!). The actors' performance ends up being affected: how could they be credible when they have to spend their time explaining to you how to eat KFC chicken or why you should drink Ohishi Honey Lemon 0%?The 2 characters with whom the 2 heroes are exchanged don't even get a little bit of storyline, it's a shame!
At the 9th episode, I realized that nothing better was going to happen, so I decided to give up. In short, don't waste your time with this series.

Perfection
All I can say about this series is perfection. It's only been 4 episodes and we have gotten sooooo much more than other bls could've gotten. With 4 episodes and the issues, stories and plot they put in each episodes, I must say, I'm very impressed. In episode 1 and 2 we layed down the whole plot, tactic and gimmick of the show while introducing the main characters very effectively too. Episode 3 we got character development, a whole story of the friend credit gang, Puen acknowledging his true ways to live his life being in someone else's body and owning up to his fault to his gang by doing his best with the script. Episode 4 we tackled more about their love life, how one don't have any interest in love but is very serious about it and one want to experience it but is very clumsy and messed up along the way since both have never fallen in love. But then we have that conflict in episode 4 and I love how it's resolved within only 1 episode. That's what you get when we have communication and not a frustrating 12 episode on going "angst" about a miscommunicated issue like some other series. I really love series a lot, from the acting to the script, location, coloring, clothes, the attention to details, to the little easter eggs they're throwing for the og bl stans. I don't have enough words to describe how much I love it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

impeccabile
La prima volta che vidi il trailer mi innamorai subito di questa serie e la cosa a me strana è il fatto che me ne sono innamorata a prima vista anche se la trama è una di quelle trame che considero troppo contorte e di conseguenza evito, sarà stato per l’eccezionale cast ma in ogni caso ho aspettato l’uscita di questa serie come l’attesa del Natale da bambini.Ho iniziato a guardarlo in onda sin dal primo episodio, cosa che non faccio mai ma vabbè come si può non dare uno strappo alla regola, e nulla ho amato tutto di questa serie.
La trama è originale e scritta in modo fantastico, per quanto mi riguarda hanno saputo far nascere, sviluppare e finire tutto in modo spettacolare, non mi sono mai annoiata e ho amato con tutto il mio cuore questa serie, mi ha trasmesso molto, provo sentimenti particolarmente profondi al riguardo.
È quel tipo di serie che ti trasmette una certa calma, dolcezza, felicità, gioia, consapevolezza, malinconia e nostalgia, quest'ultima cosa soprattutto dopo che sono ritornati al loro mondo, in ogni caso mi ha insegnato molto.
Riguardo la storia d’amore tra Talay e Puen, l’ho amata.
Abbiamo visto che comunque il loro inizio è stato tortuoso in quanto non sapevano avessero viaggiato tra universi entrambi ma dopo averlo scoperto si sono avvicinati sempre di più, hanno sempre avuto un rapporto alquanto intimo, rapporto simile non esiste nelle amicizie, quindi si è capito che ci è stato sempre questo intendimento amoroso, purtroppo per Talay è stato molto difficile capire se stesso perchè non è quel tipo di situazione dove uno è scemo e non capisce ma è quel tipo di situazione in cui lui non sapeva neanche cosa fosse l’amore, non l’aveva mai provato e neanche avuto una cotta per qualcuno, di conseguenza capiamo che ci voleva più lavoro al riguardo.
Alla fine si sono capiti e intesi e il loro amore è diventato una delle cose più belle che abbia mai visto, proprio l’amore puro, il mettere l’altro davanti a tutto e tutti e il volersi prendere cura dell'altro a ogni costo, sono stati dolcissimi, il mio cuore non regge.
In generale ci vuole veramente molto coraggio nel prendere in mano la vita di qualcuno che non conosci dovendo far finta che non ti è successo nulla, ci sono molti pericoli soprattutto dovuti al lavoro, sarebbero potuti tranquillamente capitare nel corpo di un dottore dovendo decidere di mettere fine alla sua carriera perchè non hanno studiato per quello e non è il tipo di lavoro che puoi replicare facilmente in quanto ne va della vita delle persone, vabbè questo per fare un esempio ma in generale tutto molto difficile.
Capisco anche poi quello che ha provato Puen, sarà stato egoista per il suo voler rubare la vita di Pakorn ma comunque è da capire, giustamente è passato da una vita in cui non ha nulla a una vita dove ha tutto l’affetto del mondo in una giornata e ha provato com’è bello avere delle persone che ti supportano e ti vogliono bene, alla fine è una persona matura e ha capito che in realtà non dovrebbe essere avido, alla fine nell'altra vita avrebbe potuto sempre avere Talay.
In generale tutto è stato molto tranquillo a livello di storia, è alla fine che c’è stato caos in quanto mi sono presa un infarto quando ci hanno fatto capire che solo Puen aveva sognato.
Vi giuro che lì non ci stavo capendo niente, mi ci son voluti giorni per capire cosa stesse succedendo dato che dovevo aspettare una settimana per l’ep dopo.
Poi io sotto shock perchè è una delle prime volte, se non la prima fra le mie, che l’ep 11 non si è dimostrato un disastro totale ma un grande confort per me insieme all’ultimo ep.
Un appunto che voglio fare è che se la gmmtv si azzarda a creare una sorta di seconda stagione però con la storia di Pakorn e Tess (personaggio sinceramente odiato perchè mentre Talay si faceva il culo per rendere la vita di Tess migliore, quest’ultimo ha solo rovinato la vita a Talay), farebbe tanti money perchè beh la cosa è semplice, sta situazione unirebbe il fandom di viceversa e quello di bad bunny a vedere la loro storia, dando così più visual anche alla “prima stagione”, tutto ciò dovuto al potere dell’abbinamento Ohm/Nanon.
Io stessa sono molto curiosa riguardo al come l’hanno presa loro quando si sono svegliati in un altro corpo e come si siano incontrati e riappacificati, sopratutto perchè sappiamo che a Pakorn piaceva Tess, di conseguenza mi piacerebbe avere questa sorta di seconda stagione, preghiamo tutti affinchè succeda. GMMTV CREDIAMO IN TE.
Detto ciò voglio consigliarvi assolutamente questa serie, mi ha insegnato molto e rimarrà come una delle mie preferite per sempre, il mio cuore è troppo debole per questa serie.

Interesting, rather plain
I loved the intro of this drama and felt that the pace was fine. It improved even more after OhmNanon were out of the picture. The actors fit each other and they both look very stylish in every episode. I liked a lot about this BL, the positives are that it is rather soft, sweet, intimate and has a lot of funny light hearted moments. You can feel the love blossom and you feel that the two characters have gotten close to each other so much that they can tell who the other is without seeing their face. It is rather well done and I had no problems finishing the drama.Now for some of the negatives, Jimmy is not the best actor and while it isn't too noticable, He definitely stands out as the most unskilled. It is hard to describe why. He seems a little too stiff and has flat expressions. This is less of an issue in the more romantic or funny scenes but still noticable. Besides that, the story is a little hard to follow some times, there are time skips that don't feel like time skips and it makes the story feel less grand.
Overall, the BL has many cute moments and can be compared to other GMMTV dramas that have faults in them like Enchante.
