PARBDEE

One of the reasons people are throwing rocks at "Wu" seems to be because the trailer looks great, and I've been seeing a lot of accusations that BL series don't get the budgets to look that great, but I think it's just…because it's Parbdee. "Wu" is directed by Waa and produced by Parbdee, which is hands-down the best in the game as far as post-production goes, in my opinion.

"Be My Favorite" was also directed by Waa, and it was Parbdee's first BL series:

Since then, they've done:

"The Trainee" (2024):

"ThamePo" (2024):

Upcoming series "Plan B to U" (2026):

"Write You Again" (2026):

"Twenty-One" (2026):

Aaand "You Maniac" (2026):

Post is a HUGE aspect of what makes a series sound good, look good, etc. When I got here, it was common to hear an actor's clothes rustling against the lav mic, so like, the fact that that's less common nowadays means more money is being spent today than it was even six years ago.

And like I said, Parbdee only entered the game in 2023 with "Be My Favorite," and now in 2026 they're signed on to do, what, four? That's big.

It's possible a lot of interfans haven't realized who Parbdee are yet because a lot of interfans didn't watch "Be My Favorite" or "The Trainee." I can't speak to a lot of the series out there because quality is definitely lower priority in general across the board, be they het, BL, GL, or miscellaneous. But BL is definitely not getting the short end of the stick anymore if Parbdee's not only involved but increasing the number of series they take on by this amount.

Also, the colorist for the 2026 lineup is on Instagram if you want to follow them! I love all the making-of information, so I highly recommend looking into the staff's social media channels while waiting for a series to air. It makes the whole process easier to wait through and appreciate the work the crew does that often goes unappreciated.

The colorist posted this cool step-by-step video of the color-grading process on the trailer of "Wu"—but be warned that this means Krist's rotting demon-shaman fangs are all out on display in multiple colors. 🥳

You can also check out TwinCam on TikTok for some examples of the color grading in some of the BL pilots:

"You Maniac" here, "Write You Again" here, and "Plan B to U" here.

TwinCams aren't the colorist but I think they rent out the camera equipment made to film the series, so they may upload more content as each series goes through their respective productions.

Anyway, Parbdee is pretty reliable in terms of quality, which is why four of the only six BL series I'm looking forward to this year are under their management, and I hope they take on more GL next year. 🔥

so heres me again... scribbling through my thoughts about #TheGiftedEP6 i re-learned how to upload pictures now

i have a huge amount of love for Pang ever since because of his character thats why my initial reaction to everything that happens is how will this affect him. i can't even fathom the pain he's going through. seeing everything go down and blaming himself.

 i actually have a lot of thoughts more to process

but let me just prioritize Pang. he has this big responsibility in his shoulders and he always felt like he needed to do something for him and he's loved ones. the one who wears the crown, must bear its weight. it breaks my heart to see him down and feel so helpless. he has a lot in his plate with people really depending on him. he didnt want to be the leader/catalyst, but he did everything--more than what he can offer. please, be strong, Pang. hang in there.

second, GUN ATP ACADEMY AWARDS. this and the last EP really explained how trust can easily be ruined and how mistrust from each other can create destruction within the system. Khun Darin was a snake in her own. She took advantage of the growing doubt between the XV and purposely used Punn to start the division. She knew Punn’s abilities and though Punn was able to withstand her in the first part when he said something like “Whatever Parawet says”, the growing doubt and mistrust within the group fuel the fire for Punn to eventually fall to Khun Darin’s trap. While my friend and I watched the part when Pang didnt disclose his plan with Punn, i knew that its gonna spark the push needed for Punn to really switch. And also his potential is on a heat because of his fight with Claire - the piece that has been holding back all of his other personalities. I get Punn tho, Pang couldve really just tell but I also get the internal feud between the boys and girls in which Pang is in the centerpoint. Pang was placed in a very diff situation. 

third, FIAT ANGELO ANOTHER ACADEMY AWARDS. god the look of pure evil and no regrets get me every time. he was smiling like he didnt just stab Punn and gassed all his friends. the smile mom. he’s insanely good. okay, now for his reasons, do I get some part of what his point was, the totality doesnt really sit well. his method was really wrong and he wanted something radical but wrong. he wasnt satisfied with the system as it is thats why he wanted to alienate what he thought was the problem. you see the thing is, the system was the problem that Pang wanted to fix from the inside. But Korn wanted to remove something from the system which would create an imbalance nature. I hate Korn, his betrayal, and ideals so much but NOT the point of him dying jesus no--- not like that. 

next. an important part. aside from answering some of the mysteries, it was so nice and warm to know that Chanon was watching over them silently all along. and how the gifted juniors sparked a need for change in society. the gifted is really a family. it was like Chanon was this guardian angel looking at them from a far and ready to come and rescue (just like this) when its necessary. i really love this part. and can i just emphasize, his talk with Pang on CHANGE was very timely. and boi the relief i felt when some of the theories and unanswered questions were already finally explained. its been really hard to walk in a dark road and not knowing what you're finding. this shed some light to why are they doing what they doing. 

it also makes it a lot easier for us to process and digest things when you actually know whats going on

another one, tf you mean Time is dead? No that doesnt make sense to me. He isn’t dead, i can feel it. Theres no body or anything so no he cant be. We’re not having 2 gifted dead students here just to frame up Director Suport and force his resignation so the Minister and Darin could enter. no that aint it. i have my theories, which includes ‘Time’ and Wave. But let see where this goes.

last, and please. my darling Wave. Wave, sweetie, I know you're angry, confused, and hurt but please trust Pang on this. He has his reasons you know he does. This is a lot for you also but please don't leave Pang. You were always his shoulder and support system. He needs you most now.

I've seen a few more comments about "Wu" Actually Looking Good Unlike BL Series Why Is That so now I'm just sitting here on my porch swing with a little Because It's Produced by Parbdee and I Guess You're Not Watching Parbdee's BL Series Enough to Recognize Their Post-Production Quality sign.
