Never Let Me Go (2022)

**Not for me.**

After watching *We Are* and *Me and Thee* I was curious to see more of PondPhuwin's work and this one has Perth in it who I adore and I was interested to see him acting without Santa. I watched two episodes and lost motivation to watch any more.
The episodes that I watched weren't bad, on the contrary it was an interesting enough story (albeit a bit depressing) with interesting characters, but I just could not find the motivation to sit down and keep watching this one. Truthfully, Slice of Life is my least favorite genre when I'm watching Thai BLs, the pacing always feels slow to me and there's a lot of talking in circles, so I'm not particularly surprised that I lost interest. And not to mention the slow burn romance, I'm sure when fixed ships were new this type of relationship building was still very enjoyable, but nowadays when we know that the main characters are going to end up in a relationship regardless of the situation drawing the romance out and having jealous characters/love triangles just feels pointless.
For someone who loves SoL this series will probably seem fantastic to them, but it isn't for me. Maybe one day I'll try again, but probably not any time soon.
