Top Form

This series has so much depth. It's a commentary on the pressures of the entertainment industry, a glimpse into the isolation and loneliness of our beloved stars, a love story with so much passion and pure devotion, and so much more. The actors are the best. And I've watched a LOT of Thai series, both straight and BL. And a LOT of BL from around the world. The emotions these actors can portray will have you gutted! The NC scenes are so well done too, but that's just a side part to the story. This series team deserves ALL the awards! All of the actors, writers, directors, the cinematographers and editors are out of this world. They created a masterpiece.

Top Form is an adaptation of the anime Dakaichi: I'm Being Harassed By the Sexiest Man of the Year

Who would have thought that it would be Thailand that would take on the series of this anime. What a great decision.

The director and the scriptwriters deserve a lot of praise. The latter in particular have managed to realise the essence of the story and cut out problematic parts of the story without changing the nature of the characters. Probs.

There were some sound issues in the first episode, but I'll generously look past that.

All in all, I have high hopes and expectations for this crew for future projects. They are brave and manage to tell a good story in an atmospheric setting.

But what would the best story be without the right actors? What can I say, Boom and Smart as Akin (Takato in the anime) and Jin (aka Junta) have literally stepped out of the anime. They are the perfect cast. Their acting with each other is natural, nuanced and very sensual. So much so that in some scenes you get the impression that you've caught them in flagrante delicto and hold your hands in front of your face, blushing. You will never be able to look at honey in the same way again. Honey has lost its innocence with the series....

But you can also feel the doubts, the insecurities, the injuries throughout their bodies. Both deliver a brilliant acting performance. The decision to orientate itself very closely to the anime visually means that some people may be distracted by Jin from time to time.

Personally, I really appreciate the fact that the visuals and story are so close to the original, but that the story is brought up to 2025 by not glamorising sexual assault. Despite everything, dark sides are also legitimately illuminated. We grow into their relationship with Akin and Jin and experience highs and lows. Will there be a happy ending?

This will be added at the end of the series.

I can only say that it is very much worth watching Top Form.

What a discovery and what potential for future BLs has been uncovered here. Props to the cast and crew!

What should I say about this series man.... I have been watching BL SERIES from a long time...at some point they became redundant and boring because of the concept less,illogical and repetitive content.... But TOPFORM is like a breath of fresh air which pulled me again into the BL world...the storyline is top-notch...THE ACTOR'S PERFORMANCE IS TOPFORM MAINLY BOOM(AKIN)'S PERFORMANCE IS TOPNOTCH.... Just give it a try...it will pull you and make you obsessed with it.

Let's just say the buildup,storyline,screenplay,ost,emotional content,drama,NC SCENES,Acting and everything about it is great.. that's itfor now guys bye ..have a great watching.

Topform is a standout example of how to adapt manga to live-action the right way. It captures the original's heart, humor, and intensity without losing anything in translation. The result is a stylish, emotionally grounded drama that respects its source while creating something that feels fresh and alive.

A big part of that success comes down to the casting. Boom and Smart are absolutely magnetic as Jin and Akin. They bring a dynamic energy and emotional depth to the screen that goes beyond what you'd expect. The chemistry is BEYOND anything you could imagine. Whether they're clashing or connecting, you feel every beat-and their performances alone are reason enough to watch. Is it odd to say someone looks beautiful when they cry? Watching Boom will make you rethink things.

The overall tone and pacing keep things tight and compelling, with just enough room for character growth and atmosphere. And even though the current season isn't finished yet, the world-building and emotional investment already scream for a Season 2, hell gimme Season 3!!!b Here's hoping we get it, because I'm not ready to let go of Jin & Akin.

Hands down one of the best BLs I've seen in a long time. Powerful performances, stunning chemistry, and a story that keeps evolving, getting more captivating with each episode. It's not just entertaining - it's emotionally rich and thoughtfully crafted. You'll find yourself getting more invested with every scene.

Smart and Boom light up the screen - perfect casting, perfect chemistry. Their connection feels effortless and electric, adding real weight to every moment they share.

Every time you think you've seen the best, something like this comes along and proves you wrong.

Trust me - it's a must-watch!
