To tell you honestly, I was skeptic in watching this series. The title itself sounds salacious. I initinially thought that this will be a cheap and improperly interpreted. However, I was wrong....

The plot and the story itself were well written. It's different from any BL movies that I watched. The way the story was narrated is superb. It is as if am also part of the movie.

Some scenes are indeed salacious, but the delivery has class. I'm reall surprised with the acting skills of these Japanese actors. Their character seems lit, as if they are not fiction anymore. The editing and the music is good. I do not think that each episode is short. Seemed to me like (the episodes) were intentionally kept that long to keep the viewers wanting for more.

The chemistry of the lead actors is just perfect. I love how they carried their character from the first season. Their acting is more believable and on point.

The storyline is good but incomparable to the first series. I somehow felt that series 2 was created just to support their fans and endorsers. Well, nothing wrong with that. Sotus is one of the foundation of BL series. Regardless of the plot, the connection between the characters will carry the storyline.

The plot this time maybe cliche to others - but you see, as long as you get satisfied that's good enough for me.

Episode 12 is the best and one of the most iconic episodes for me.

I did not see the movie hence this review is pure observation - without bias.

Overall, the series is okay. The story is okay, acting is okay, chemistry is there and the execution is mediocre. There are several stories compiled in one series hence there had been lack of proper execution. Nonetheless, you can totally digest the entire series.

There's just too much conflict in the story - compressing it in one series is just not enough. Take note, all conflicts have been resolved this leaves too little time for the couple to build their chemistry. The switch between the past and present, I think, is okay. However, there are gaps in the stories which were not addressed properly.

I like the plot and how each episodes are written. The acting and chemistry is a little off at first but after few episodes it just blossomed. Actors are cute and their acting is good too. Music is okay but I think season 2 has better music.

I like the way how they resolve mini conflicts within the same episode and use the main conflict as plot. The story is light and easy to digest. Just enough to leave a mark. I will definitely recommend this series to my friends.

Love Sick is a happy pill series.

Grey Rainbow is indeed one of the best BL series out there. The storyline is good. The plot is perfect. Actors are equally handsome and acting is just superb. Trully, this series is an eye opener and I learned a lot from it.

The ending is heartbreaking. Like I literally got depressed after watching. I do not care is the ending is subject for individual interpretation - but you can't just make us fall in love and break our hearts at the end. A good and sensible BL series is hard to find; and although this series depicts reality, rubbing it is just too much for me.

Anyways this is a good series, watch it if you dare but I will never watch it again.

I agree with other reviews, shoving four different stories in one series is just too much to digest. You can't help but get excited with one couple and get bored with the others. I seriously started skipping all stories and just focused on the one with BL story. I mean, among the four couples their storyline is way more interesting. Their acting is believable. The supporting actors in their scenes are really good too. I just wish they narrow the storyline down to atleast 2 and then mqke the story somehow connected. I felt like watching four different series at the same time and it gives me headache.

Overall, Kiss Me Again is a happy-pill series. You can binge watch if you may.

I've never been hooked in BL series except this one. The chemistry is just amazing and the acting is just on point. The plot tells a sensible story, but unlike other BL series, this one is light. The main actors are really good in portraying their characters. Even the supporting actors are really good too.

Music is superb, I may not understand Thai language but the fact the that I get moved by the melody - it is good enough for me.

Overall, this is a kind of BL series / story that we need. Something that would put smile on your face after watching. Something that would inspire people to simply fall in love and enjoy life as is.
