My Girlfriend Is an Alien Episode 19

By far the best episode in a loooong time.

Finally, this episode moved multiple character arcs forward. The obvious one is Xiaoqi finally realizing she truly cares more about Fang Leng than she even cares about retrieving the messenger and going home. Unfortunately, while she is on her way to this understanding, it comes too late before Leng gets seriously hurt as she inadvertently disturbs the messenger, which got embedded next to his heart in the car accident. This puts his life in danger and this event reveals some new character traits in Fang Lie. On one hand, he seems to truly see just how much despair Xiaoqi is feeling for Leng and he helps to get his family out of the way for her to see him. But then, at the critical moment of letting her see him, he shows his true selfish, awful colors by forcing her to promise to give up Leng after this. Because he selfishly wants her,. I've kind of disliked his stupid, childish character ever since the very beginning and this action just cements it. He is one of the worst kind of 'villains' because he stupidly and naively thinks he is a good person. But he is not. He is as emotionally stupid and selfish like a child. And like a child, he breaks things.
