Still fluff, but misunderstood fluff!
In my review of the actual series, I had mentioned that while Ai Long Nhai has some glaring errors, it still can be considered a pretty sweet show all in all. Hardly any toxicity, miscommunication (except when Nhai sees Ai with Jom and destroys his room like a 5 yo), absolutely supportive friends and family (still majorly in love with Ai's dads Sib and Nan and Nhai's dad!).
However, this special episode is anti-sweet. I mean, it's still cute and fluffy, Nhai is still silly and sometimes brainless, I sort of got upset with Ai. He is pretending to be tsundere while in Ai Long Nhai, he was the sweetest seme. Don't get me wrong. It's not like doesn't love Nhai. He has just been told that he is not loved anymore. Coming back to faith from that kind of declaration would be hard for anyone. But no one knows better than him how childish and silly Nhai is. He has been taking care of him for more than an year. He should have learnt some lessons.
What annoyed me was the lack of communication. Ai has always made it a point to talk to Nhai about what he feels, even if he does it slowly. I do not understand the complete 180 degree turnaround. I know he explains himself later, but if he had been open from the beginning, we could have avoided a lot of unnecessary angst.
But I sort of am loving how childlike Nhai is. His shenanigans to win his guy back are actually quite sweet. I find him really innocent and guileless. Not many characters like Nhai like Thai Bls or in Thai series as a whole. The only one I have seen other than him is Jade, a totally pure soul)
And then there are Sib and Nan. I am so totally in love with that couple that I can't seem to get over them. They just exude chemistry and sweetness!
There is ample skinship. Both Ai and Nhai have never been able to keep their hands off each other, right from the first series. And Nhai is also become bolder, probably stemming from the fact that he is so sure in his relationship with his man!
So, while I am not really a big fan of sequels, prequels etc., this one, all in all, was a sweet end to Ai Long Nhai. You can definitely watch it once! :)
