My singular MDL review, because I never review but LBFaD is the best Chinese drama I've watched
I'm not the biggest drama watcher, and my principle is to not rate anything as I'm not a fair critique. But LBFaD was simply such an enjoyable and fun watch that this will likely forever be my only review ever, even if only to show how much I loved the drama. All 10/10 stars for me; any flaw can be looked over and is overall understandable. The only downside for me is a slight pacing issue and choppy feel, which is sadly common in Chinese dramas. I look forward to watch other dramas by the cast!Was this review helpful to you?

HOLY SMOKE WHAT A DRAMA
This drama was really amazing and sooooo well done that i binged watched over a weekend!!!I loved everything about it the leads the costumes the story line the plots the scenery everything that it had i LOVED IT.
Love Between Fairy and Devil is a xianxia drama, which narrates the story of forbidden love between a devil and a fairy., boy did DW pull off the whole Devil look to the highest point, his acting his expressions his costumes everything he did in this drama well worth and possibly more than a 10 . I also love how the drama sets a certain persona and design for each tribe and realm meticulously. For instance, in the fairy realm, the gods use bright and light outfits and headpieces with overexposure to the lighting. The fairy realm has a very heavy element of the Chinese culture, meanwhile, the demon/ moon realm has a hint of medieval elements in its location, outfits and more. The drama team also paid attention to those small actors/extras like the guards, their outfit is not sloppy, it is fitting to the overall persona they set. Such as the moon palace guards has dark and big outfit which looks intricate!
OSTs [10/10] —
One of the best parts of this drama is those musical scores. There is one for every situation ;)
◍ "Parting Love" (诀爱) - Faye Chan (the stunning illustrations we get for this intro song and the voice! I have never skipped this honestly, it turns out to be my favorite song from this drama, everytime it's played for the leads, it adds a special magic to their chemistry)
◍ "The Oath of Canglan" (苍兰契) - Li Changchao (the song for both Dongfang hellfire and orchid's first powers as well. I love how the singer shifts to a different pitch in middle and the upbeat music behind is just my style, my second favorite)
◍ "Loss of Memory" (失忆) - Yu Shuxin
◍ "Looking For You" (寻一个你) - Liu Yuning
◍ "Shore" (彼岸) - Jing Long & Jing Di
◍ "Longing" (念) - Shuang Sheng
◍ "I Still Remember That Day" (我还记得那天) - Shen Yi Cheng
◍ "I Want To Be With You" (想和你) - Yu Shuxin & Dylan Wang
◍ "Remaining Love" (余情) - Zhou Shen (smoothly ending every episode with his angelic voice)
The Visuals were amazing and set the tone of each episode or character that was been played at the time every realm is uniquely detailed and fleshed out, from makeup to forms of magic used to costumes, interior design, architecture, and customs.
Overall: This drama well worth watching if not for DW but for the story in itself ... Think i will do go a rewatch, as i have not come across any other of this type to grab me so..

Best Xianxia drama of the last t years
I am not good with words. So sometimes saying little is best. I am not exaggerating by saying is the best drama in it's genre for a while. The time spent for the cinematography is well spent, the actors went above and beyond, I think the best roles they have done in all their careers. Anyway it is a drama worth watching and re-watching. The story is really well written and it is perfectly told in it's length.Anyway I wish that Esther and Dylan do another drama together their chemistry was off the charts and its been a while since I saw a couple so comfortable with each other.

BEST OF THE BEST
I rewated this drama already 3 times and I am ready to do it again!For the story line: I just love it, really good a bit of everything you need in one romance drama!
For the acting: Everyone done really good job. How ML and FL chaning personalities it just incredible job. You can tell Dylan improve so much in this drama.
Music: I love the music. I am still listening it almost daily. It is in my playlist at Spotify.
I would say must watch. It is 1000 worth it! Soon need to do my 4th watch hehe.

must watch xianxia
wow, i really don' t know why i delayed watching this show for such a long time.i used to think it was maybe really overhyped, but now that i have watched the entire thing i know for a fact the reason why it's still constantly talked about, extremely liked, and has thousands of fans all over.
it's a beautifully told love story that almost has the feel of a grecian tragedy in the ancient times. while watching, speaking from my experience, i really couldn't help but feel for all the characters.
everything about this show was beautifully written by the writers AND beautifully acted out by the actors.
forbidden love lore written SO good i had to take little breaks while watching and just take a little lap around my room.
i really have a LOT to say but feel like i almost shouldn't, because this show is truly something that should be experienced by the person watching, first hand.
10/10

Totally worth the money spent!!
Wow!!! what great drama..loved every bit. The acting the main leads were fantastic. They did justice to the characters.My first time watching Esther, she was great!
Dylan...boy oh boy...his acting has improved tremendously...he portrayed his character so well, the emotional scenes really tugged at your heart...he makes you cry with him...his character switches were done so well too.
I am going to miss this blue eyed devil and the love of his life..little orchid.
Time and money well spent. 🥰🥰
I hope to see them both again in another drama.

Love and Sacrifice
I started watching Love Between Fatty and The View with a bit of skepticism. In the first episodes, especially from 1 to 10, it was really hard to get into the story, mainly because of the weak effects that took away some of the immersion. I even thought about dropping it.But everything changed from episode 11 onwards. That’s when I started to truly root for the Moon Supreme, cheering for him in every scene. By episode 16, there was no turning back—I was completely in love with his character.
From that point on, the drama had me hooked. Every detail of the plot, every emotion conveyed, kept me glued to the screen. What started as a dragging experience turned into a full-blown obsession, all thanks to the charisma and intensity the Moon Supreme brought to the story.

Dangerous gateway drug to a whole new world of epic romantic fantasy
This is one of the most popular xianxia, with reasons. Plot is so well written, art direction is top notch (so many frames look like paintings), OST is killer, costumes are legendary, there is tons of alchemy between the actors. It manages to be sweet, funny, heartbreaking. It's very well-paced and has no filler, which is rare. I even love Esther Yu's voice. It was my first xianxia and it hooked me hard on the genre, making me desperate to find other shows like it (and thrilled when I discovered that there was an entire catalogue of it waiting for me). What to say that hasen't been said about it already, just watch it.Was this review helpful to you?
THIS IS MY FAVE SERIES!
Every eps, my expression was "Whoa, shep, ghad super!" The plot was super interesting (never looked at how many eps it has). I'm an overthinker who loves to predict what's next but men, this series fooled me thrice! The effects were awesome! FL was fantastic, she may seem linear but she shows her courage more than they emphasized. I like her lighter personality than the last eps. ML was superb too! They manage to portray his character in deep to emphasize the importance of it in the plot. I didn't know the actor until my friend recognized him. And sheezzz, when they switched bodies, their acting was freakin distinguishable! There are minor questions that were not answered but oh well, not important, just OC guy. The ending was quite short though. I want more of them! huuhu. That's why I got a hangover on this one for about a month before I decided to watch and move on. It's not light because the plot was AWESOME. OVERALL, this one is freakin good!Was this review helpful to you?

I have rewatched this drama so many times and I still love it so much.
This is always the drama I recommend when someone asks for one.I love everything from the handsome Dylan Wang to my ultimate favourite Esther Yu, to the emotional music to the beautiful costumes, to the plot twists. There are some scenes that are boring, but I was able to get through them without much skipping. But nonetheless, I ended up rewatching the drama like 5 times and even watched the "boring" scenes again because the drama ended up being so so good!
If you are debating whether or not you should spend time on this drama. I beg you to watch it!! It is the best!
SPOILERS:
I know some people were not as satisfied with the ending because it was this cyclic idea where he waits for her, then she waits for him, then he waits for her again. But I think that's the whole point of their story - that they're always there for each other. I think it's the perfect ending for them where they are finally able to settle down in the place they grew most close together yet still have the powers and control of the universe.
