The Eclipse Ep 6 Live Blogging

I have class from 10:10-11 while this show goes on from 9:40-10:40 so... is it better to just watch it all at 11 or start at 9:40, watch part 1 and maybe 2, then watch other parts at 11? Agh, why couldn’t this show be at 9 or my class at 11 T.T I need this show in my brain as soon as it releases

Sep 15 

Okay, I didn’t start watching it as it premiered, so am now watching the whole thing after my class ended (which ended 10 minutes later than scheduled </3). thankfully I’ve avoided spoilers so far hoho (except someone saying “wow they really turned the prefects club into a cult” so... that’s giving me some thoughts and someone else saying they were shaking while watching pt 4 lol)

6-1

bro absolutely incredible way of weaving in Akk’s initiation with the fire and his smile vs the fire and his expression now

oh wait is she not supposed to monitoring the school? Chadok seems surprised to see her at the office. Is she also investigating on her own?

No fucking way D: I really was hoping Akk hadn’t done the car to neutral thing because that really could hurt someone but he had ahh. Someone on MDL brought it up last week that in that scene 1) Akk was the first one to shout to move, how did he know when he’d just come onto the scene? 2) Maybe Akk chased Ayan because he thought Ayan knew. I’ll keep this in mind when I decide to rewatch the episodes ig

Anyway, also very interesting that Ayan knew the whole time that Akk did that... will keep that fact in mind too when I rewatch

6-2

I do love it when they show the fact that Akk’s doing what he’s doing not just because he loves the school but because of self-serving reasons as well, whether it be that he wants the college scholarship like he admitted in ep 5 or that he doesn’t want Suppalo’s reputation to be ruined while he’s the head of the prefects.  + the “You maintain peace and goodness by doing all those shitty things, Akk?”  

He says he doesn’t wanna hurt anybody, that’s why I was so hoping that he didn’t do the flower pot + car stints because those can certainly hurt someone

the direction of the conversation is slightly confusing to me like it’s adjacent to what needs to be said but now exactly? or maybe it is... the way to get through to Akk doing bad things selfishly is to reassure him that he doesn’t need to do all that instead of just saying why the fuck are you doing all that dumbass? Also, I guess Ayan already knew Akk was doing bad shit and liked him still, so he cares more about Akk than his deeds and wants to show that.

Ayan’s hand on Akk’s nape. Hah. okay. well. 

Okay, this conversation about Chadok and Ayan questioning him is what I thought would happen before the reassurance and caring stuff but I guess it was like “Ayan questioning him” -> “Ayan reassuring him just to show that he cares and also to let Akk know he can talk to him” -> “Ayan questioning him again”

I’m fine with teacher/student romances when I’m watching a show with like no damn morality but this one where we’re very concerned with people in power and how they use it, I hope they don’t go there and if they do, I wonder how they’d handle it. Although... I wonder if she isn’t just using Wat at this point to just more info on his group/Akk and perhaps Chadok in a roundabout way.

uhh was Not expecting Kan’s “Cause you’re always with Aye. I’m jealous.” goddamn how will you wiggle out of that one my guy. Ah yes, this is like the 50th BL that has used the worried/jealous sounding similar in Thai excuse lol also Thua’s smile ahhhhh

bruv this part took me forever to watch. This is what happens when I’m not watching during premier I guess

6-3

no way not the “are you guys just a ship or real?” i thought i would’ve avoided this shit in this show at least. I guess it’s fun to see Ayan enjoying and milking it though lol Ayan’s laugh is sooo cute here

Ayan called The World Remembers trio “the 3 Jums” what does that mean?

Thua has some meddling ass friends lmfao first Ayan telling his mom that Thua keeps things to himself + Kan’s audacity right here saying “If he does anything, tell me and I’ll deal with him” right in front of Thua’s stepdad like won’t that just make it worse for Thua? 

I’m so confused by this stepdad “if he’s your faen, admit it. we’re in a new age now. how’s school?” seems like something caring people would say but I guess it’s a way to make Thua lower his guards OR that he’s an alright dude most of the time but gets really angry really quickly and that’s when he’s abusive

KanThua “legendary boyfriends” so funny

a flashback to Kan and Thua before their falling out? Hal said that in the special ep, they said the two used to be friends before before Kan started avoiding Thua and has only just started getting close to him again

lol Akk’s walking into school after dark privileges (we’re gonna ignore how they both got in and left before in part 1 I guess)

6-4

in the thumbnail, Ayan has his hand around Akk’s head too while in bed, so that’s good because the teaser from last week was like “ooh Akk’s going in for the kiss while Ayan’s asleep”

Ayan’s so funny, just getting into bed with Akk with a smile. this whole bed sharing scene is sooo bl, so cute. 

I’m too nervous to continue watching ahh like 5 mins left

Aw, Ayan’s nightmare again :( Also the first time we saw it, we didn’t know much about the necklace but now we know for sure that it’s like current day Ayan with his necklace have a nightmare that he was there with Dika but couldn’t stop him

I heard a kiss sound but also could see Ayan’s uncovered lips, so cheek kiss?

okayy several kisses and cuddling afterwards. I liked the silence no bg-music kiss (tho ngl the heavy breathing after the kiss threw me off cuz I was like um??? but it was just Ayan getting a hold of himself I think). I also like that it’s a soft, comforting kiss; their chemistry and dynamic means that you kind of expect like an explosive kiss and I really hope we do get one later but their first ones being kinda unsure before going in again and being comforting is so good

I guess I won’t watch the preview but I suspect I’ll be spoiled about it anyway. 

Overall Episode Thoughts:

short episodes but we get to see everything: curse stuff, akk and ayan romantic and platonic progressions, akk character development, wat and teacher sani, kan and thua. even got glimpses of The World Remembers kids (and glad to know they’re liked and having fun outside of school), no prefect trio scenes but got Wat talking about them + kan and wat convo, got a glimpse of Chadok, no progress on the uncle but we saw him in the nightmare again, also spent time searching for the notebook even if we didn’t find it. 

Really enjoyed it, the show keeps getting better and better. I love how much things have started making sense retroactively now that we know that Akk is the curse and Ayan knew it too. This makes me hopeful that they’ll continue have a comprehensible and fun plot and reveals, as well as land the ending hopefully

Fave Scene:

The first and last scenes I think. I thought the production of the show thus far has been alright but not impressive but I loved how the first scene and the last scene were shot and edited a lot. 

The way the present and past scenes were weaved together was so good, connected by the fire but Akk’s expression as he’s initiated surrounded by people, including ones he adores vs his expression as he is about to set fire to the effigy really impacted me right at the start of the episode. 

For the last scene, I was surprised by this show which is obsessed with dramatic background music chose for it be silent. I think it was a very good choice, made me anticipate the characters’ reactions more and also portrayed the “they’re the only ones here” vibe well.

 + Khao’s laughter in that beachside food scene when the servers asked if they’re a ship or real 

Curse Culprit Suspects (Or the Notebook Thief): 

Well, seems like Akk is the only Curse Culprit. 

I actually don’t know how the Notebook Thief is other than people saying they didn’t see Kan or Thua in the scene. 

Also, I wonder when Namo’s gonna make an impact. Is he scheming something or is he just a red herring and he’s gonna be helpful in the end somehow? Or maybe turn against the students in the end but isn’t against them right now.
