Will Update As I Watch More Episodes
This is my try in giving each section of Our Skyy 2 a review. Writing it after each part is done, mostly because my long term memory isn't that good. Ratings for previous part might change as I watch more parts.
1. Never Let Me Go (8.5 star)
I have to say that the transition from a bodyguard/boss story into a fantasy-themed one with reverse reincarnation is shocking! Maybe because they only have 2 episodes or about 100 minutes to make up the rule of the fantasy, give explanations on how it could happens, and not to mention the actual story in the past itself, the overall plot seems to be full of holes to me and lots of questions that left unanswered. But considering this is a special and the fact that I have bias for BL series, I'll just try to enjoy the overall theme and story without thinking much about the plot holes.
I could enjoy the historical theme more, if they explain or give rough descriptions on what time period they were reverse reincarnated to. Love the role reversal where Palm becomes the lord while Nueng is the servant and how the power dynamic is shifted according to their new roles. Love the moments where they talk about their plans for the future and when they have differing opinions, they can talk it out (although I think you would need to talk more than that especially discussing important matters like that). Also loves it that both Palm and Nueng shows they have each their own good and bad quality but they still stick to each other despite of that.
Side couples come as a surprise to me! Even though they only have a few minutes of screentime, apparently I was too invested in their story. I unexpectedly shed some tears when in the current era, Phum (Petch) and Kan (Kla) are boyfriends too. It feels like they got what they deserves, even when they couldn't be together in the past era.
2. Star in My Mind (7.5 star)
I know it will be full of lovey-dovey moments from the trailers and maybe that's why I was surprised when it delivers some really good lines about healthy relationship and trusts. Watch out for the little surprise at the end, they can make you suddenly feel warm and fuzzy inside! Overall, a good mini-series to binge-watch when you need mood booster
Side couples are there, although not as much as in NLMG (and not much interaction either!!!) Happy that Typhoon is implied to be able to move on but still being friends with Dao.
