Exceeded expectations.

There is nothing average about this show.

I loved the character development, I appreciate the fact that people faced consequences for their actions.
I appreciate that there is more than one couple whose stories are explored fully and given enough attention.

Thorn and Tupfah.
I don't understand that people do not get the fact that he was as much a professional athlete as Tupfah. I would even argue he was the better athlete. He never wavered from what he wanted.
The pain and loneliness he felt after his injury was heartbreaking to watch. I cannot imagine going through that and then having your friends and the person you love exclude you from their lives.
Starting secret chat groups? Talk about ghosting.
His 'friends' sneaking to the beach to talk about their futures without him was not how people who care about you react.

Tupfah knew he was in the wrong hence lying about the training sessions with Chain in the mornings. While Thorn encourages him and supports him, he keeps secrets from him. He promises Thorn that he will always be available to him, but breaks those promises every time. Of course, Thorn would feel betrayed. When he tells Tupfah that the only reason he would be alone is that others left him? That was such a powerful line, delivered perfectly by Suar. His acting was incredibly in these scenes.
Overhearing Tupfah questioning his love for Thorn to Chain of all people, again betrayal.

His actions after that are understandable, this is his life too, his passion too. He does go about it the wrong way, but it is out of a need to prove to himself and others that he still counts. After realizing how wrong he was, it leaves him terrified that he would lose everything, again. It is only here that Tupfah finally and thankfully realizes how much Thorn was hurt.

Aai and Sean? Typical BL storyline, there are some issues, but again, it is resolved easily by the last episode.

Dome and Vee,
This was a problematic relationship from the start. If Dome broke up with Pan as soon as he realized he has feelings for Vee, it could have mitigated the fallout. But he doesn't, he actively pursues Vee, while still dating Pan.
Vee's reaction when Dome tells him he is going to break up with Pan was authentic, the guilt consumed him at that stage.
Even when Pan tells Vee that she is okay with their relationship, how do you explain that you are now dating your sister's boyfriend immediately after they broke up?
I do give Vee credit that he knows this is wrong, distances himself from Dome. He is mature enough to understand that it will take time for everyone to move on before they can pursue a relationship.
In the end, it is the only thing that they can do.
