OhmFluke is Life!

Things that I liked about the series:
- First off, the actors/actresses throughout the show were all amazing, especially the main casts. Fluke, who plays Pharm in UWMA, is my favorite actor in all of BL and him playing as Pharm was phenomenal. I felt every emotion he felt and I was rooting for his relationship with Dean.
- The chemistry that both Fluke and Ohm, who plays P'DEEEEEAN, was a sight to behold. The pair just oozed chemistry off the screen, and honestly my favorite ship in all of BL currently.
- Also, and I stand by this 100%. Pharm and Dean have the HEALTHIEST RELATIONSHIP IN BL!! It's rare to see a show where the couple actually talks when something is bothering them, or bring up consent, or protective sex. Please, can we have more of this!?!
- Now let's talk about the storyline. OMG THE STORY IS BRILLIANT!!! This is the best love story I have ever seen in a show or movie, or have ever read in a novel. BL or non-BL this is the best love story ever. Not only that, but the Romeo/Juliet reincarnation concept is so unique and beautifully portrayed. The strong attention to the smallest details that ties the story together, such as the birthmarks on Pharm and Dean's temples, the legend of the Red Thread of Fate (Which is real BTW), even the idea of In and Korn switching families when reincarnated as Pharm and Dean, were all well thought out. A lot of credit goes to the original author of the story Lazysheep for creating this masterpiece of a story.

Things that I didn’t like about the series:
There really isn't much I didn't like.
- I will admit that some scenes dragged on longer than necessary. A lot of people mentioned the long stares that seem to happen throughout the series, and unfortunately, I have to agree with them. The constant staring in silence for long periods of time could've been cut down some. When it happens to Pharm and Dean, I can understand why given that I read the actual novel that the series is based on, but it makes it harder for those who haven't to understand what all is going on in their heads.
- The same could also be said for the flashbacks. In the book, it's mentioned that Pharm and Dean see the flashbacks in their dreams, but the minute they wake up, all the details are left completely blank. It's only until they start spending more time together that the details slowly begin to reveal themselves. But you wouldn't know that unless you either read the book or would've guessed it. When you have a story this complex, it's kind of hard to SHOW the smaller details like this rather than TELLING it, but not showing it leaves viewers in the dark about what's going on.
- Now I love Win and Team as a pair, but I feel like they've stolen the show from Pharm and Dean, which irks me to no end. Not that there's anything wrong with them, but I wish they saved their relationship for the spinoff. I wanted the show to be focused on more of Pharm/Dean and In/Korn.
- I also think things were starting to get repetitive, but at the same time I understand why. I just feel like they could've done more.

Overall Thoughts:
If it wasn't obvious at this point, then let me spell it out for you. I FREAKING LOVE THIS SERIES! This is a top tier masterpiece in my book, even with the flaws it has. You rarely find a healthy couple like Pharm and Dean in a show, so to see it here was a breath of fresh air. The storyline alone is brilliant, and the cast and crew overall did a great job bringing this story to life. There were a few missteps, but nothing that hindered me from enjoying this series. I laughed, I cried, and gushed, and cried, and cried, and cried some more!! All the tears, I swear! Ohm and Fluke did an amazing job portraying Dean and Pharm, and I hope to see them again in another series. I know they'll be replaying their roles in WinTeam's spinoff, so I'm looking forward to that. This will be a high ranking BL for me, and I fullheartedly recommend this show to anyone who enjoys BL, a complex storyline, and proof that true love conquers all including time.

Rank: 9/10
