Love between Fairy and Devil

Lovely story

Thd plot is really intriguing, abd the costumes are beautiful ( heard the actress brought 300 costumes herself !). Heaven forgive me, but I liked the Devil, the actor really git thd script perfectly. Fairy was nice and sweet, but her voice really destroyed all the romantic feeling. Very beautiful CGI, colours amazing and very exciting gof a xanxia. Nice OST, complementing the story, though I will not save any to listen to it later. I think it eon viewers in comparison with other xanxias released at the same time because of the original plot and costumes, also very clever marketing team . Worth watching !

Romance Comedy with a bit of angst...

I never thought there would come a day when I would like body-switch scenes in a drama. I usually find those scenes cringe and cheesy, but it was done so well in this drama that I was practically looking forward to such scenes.

The cast carried the comedy part of the drama so well. I guess it's because both of the leads have a fun dynamic and personality in real life. In the heavy sad scenes of the drama, I was amazed by the improvement of Dylan Wang's acting. He really came a long way from his previous drama meteor garden. On the other hand, Yu Shi Xin's acting is a bit lackluster for me when it came to heavy scenes.

Overall, I truly enjoyed this drama. The visuals and the effects are insane. I wish that it didn't deteriorate at the end though. Also, I was hoping the story gets to showcase the new power acquired by the male lead more.

Simply put, there's much to praise in 'Love Between Fairy and Devil,' and while I don't intend to reiterate what's already been said, I'd like add my own unique opinion.

To begin with, here's a spoiler-free synopsis:

The tale follows Lan Hua, an immortal fairy who inadvertently releases Dongfang Qingcang, the enigmatic leader of the moon tribe, forging an unexpected connection that binds them. Dongfang Qingcang's quest to sever this link and unleash his malevolent forces forms the crux of the storyline.

Visuals hold tremendous weight in this genre, and 'Love Between Fairy and Devil' truly excels in this aspect. The CGI, often a point of contention in xinxia dramas, is used expertly and never too much. The meticulously crafted costumes and set design further elevate the visual grandeur of the show.

Pacing, a key factor in lengthy series, is a strong suit here. The middle portion of the drama strikes an ideal rhythm, effectively propelling the narrative forward. While the initial stages might have taken a while to gain momentum and the conclusion lingered somewhat (perhaps intentionally), the middle span felt like a breeze. The side plots deserve applause for their engaging nature, intricately woven into the main storyline. Each subplot serves a purpose, ensuring that no screen time feels wasted.

While the overarching plot adheres to familiar xianxia tropes, the execution is anything but formulaic. The drama consistently subverts expectations, infusing freshness into established themes. Whenever they introduced something I thought I had seen a thousand times before, they suprised me with a different spin on it. . The climax, although it was expected that she would sacrifice herself, still had a satisfying impact

Turning to performances, my personal bias towards Yu Shuxin and Wang Hedi may be evident, but it's hard to deny their chemistry. Yu Shuxin's portrayal of the delicate yet determined Lan Hua is commendable, particularly in emotionally charged scenes. Wang Hedi, though dubbed, conveys his character's demeanor with a fitting stoicism, and his moments of emotional vulnerability are truly compelling. His expressions convey such a heartwrenching loss - it's hard not to believe him.

The show's original soundtrack deserves a special mention. Its resonance is so profound that people unacquainted with the drama know a few songs, a testament to its captivating quality.

In conclusion, 'Love Between Fairy and Devil' is a gem worthy of acclaim. While it traverses familiar territory, its unique execution, coupled with impeccable visuals, masterful pacing, and genuine performances, sets it apart. This drama, with its alluring blend of fantasy and emotion, manages to strike chords that resonate with me to this day.

A Fantasy Romance That Soars Beyond the Clouds

Let me just start by saying — I did not expect to fall this hard for a fantasy C-drama. But Love Between Fairy and Devil completely wrecked me (in the best way possible). If you're into epic love stories, emotional depth, and magical worlds, this one deserves a spot at the top of your watchlist. ❤️

At first glance, this seems like a typical xianxia setup: a cold, ruthless demon lord (Dongfang Qingcang) and a bubbly, low-level fairy (Xiao Lan Hua) with a fated connection. But the execution? So much better than expected. 💯

It starts lighthearted and comedic, even a little silly. But the emotional depth slowly creeps in — and then punches you in the gut. The soul-binding/body-swap plot twist is used meaningfully, not just for laughs. Themes of fate, redemption, and sacrifice hit hard in the second half. The stakes feel real, the pain feels earned, and the payoff is immensely satisfying.😭❤️

Dylan Wang 🔥 blew me away. He managed to balance Dongfang Qingcang’s intimidating presence with his quiet vulnerability. His character arc — from unfeeling demon to a man who learns to love — was portrayed with nuance and restraint.

Esther Yu🌸, despite early criticism for her high-pitched voice and cutesy behavior, completely won me over. Xiao Lan Hua's growth from a timid, naive girl to a brave, emotionally resilient woman is one of the best parts of the show.

Their chemistry is electric 🫠 — filled with tension, tenderness, and raw emotion. You feel the longing and the heartbreak.

And let’s not ignore:
🛡️ Changheng – Loyal second lead who deserved better
🧠 Rong Hao – The definition of tragic friend turns chaotic

👎 What Could Be Better?
Some of the side plot resolutions felt rushed or underexplored.
Esther Yu’s performance takes a few episodes to adjust to — she’s adorable, but can come off a little too exaggerated early on.
A few secondary characters deserved more fleshing out (especially the female leads in the heavenly realm).

❤️ Final Thoughts
Love Between Fairy and Devil is more than a fantasy romance — it’s a story about transformation, sacrifice, and the pain of loving someone in a doomed world. The writing, acting, and production all come together to deliver a drama that stays with you long after the final episode.

If you love "Eternal Love", or anything in the xianxia romance genre, this one is a must-watch.

✔️ Watch it for the stunning visuals.
✔️ Stay for the soul-deep romance.
✔️ Cry for the emotional payoff.

Being bad can be good. Surprisingly good!

I was pleasantly surprised by this gem. It is so entertaining, I don't have words to describe it. The acting is amazing! Everyone is perfect but special mention to Dylan Wang who plays the cold-hearted devoid-of-emotions devil, the devil with all his emotions, and the fairy (body swap) extremely well! It's Dylan Wang's best work yet ♥️. Dylan plays them in a nuanced manner and is extremely charismatic. Esther Yu's portrayal of the fairy's character development is subtle and brilliant. I love the small details, like changes in her mannerisms, voice, etc. Just great! This drama has laudable CGI and visuals-- artistic and elegant. The drama has the right mix of angst, comedy, bromance, and romance. Love it!
Please do give it a chance, you won't regret it. (Especially if you're not a fan of this genre)
For once, it's hard not to be on the devil's side. The bad boy deserves to get the girl.
If only they could have elaborated the ending... I love a happy ending, but this one seems a slapstick ending that was rushed, just to wrap up the drama on a high note... It's just 36 episodes. What's another 1 more...or 4... or 10. Just give us a season 2!

TO THE WORLD HE IS DEVIL....BUT FOR HER HE IS WOODEN HEAD

I just rewatched the show and honestly i liked it more then the first time , when i first watched i had just started watching cdramas and whole wuxia - xiaxian thing was entirely new to me,,,but after watching lot of these type of drama i can definatly say that it is one of the best,,,like bestest.....it's a trend setter for me.
LBFAD is just too good for me,,,it have nice story , good actors with mind blowing chemistry, smoothing ost and eye caching visuals that you will fall in love with.
the story is it's main selling point and it will not disappoint you trust me because i liked it so so much....the way it was going arc by arc and the development of their relationship was quite good.
whole drama have many different story and each one is good and my most fav is when they are mortals and least fav is when fl becomes goddess .
in the whole drama the thing i hate was second leads story and the final arc,,,i just feel that it was very rusted and could have been good because it had the story to tell more.
SO ALL IN ALL IF YOU LIKE THIS TYPE OF DRAMA THEN WATCH IT JUST RIGHT NOW,,,IT WILL NOT DISSPOINT YOU IN ANY WAY AND LISTEN TO IT'S OST ALL THE TIME.

after watching first time this show i liked it's ost and was listing to it now after watching it again i fell in love with all the songs and melody of this drama.

Aesthetically pleasing, funny and unexpectedly emotional drama

I have a few negative things to say, and I will say them first.
✘ Regarding the male lead:
In the beginning, we get an overpowered villain male lead with deadly ancient powers. He could basically destroy entire realms and no one could stop him. He is ruthless, emotionless, and deadly. Now I'm a sucker for overpowered anti-heroes so the premise was right up my alley. I love it when shows don't just hype up someone, but also DELIVER. In this aspect, the show delivered in episode 9 (my fave episode in the entire show) and then never again. It got me sooo hyped up, but then it fell through. The hero becomes more of a hero than a villain, he becomes emotional and weak. He completely changes his cold and ruthless demeanor I loved. I am okay with having him gain emotions and falling in love as a part of his character development, but I really hated him becoming as weak as any other immortal. He gains his powers back in the very end, but we get to see nothing of it. :(((

✘ Regarding the ending:
The ending was very rushed. The angst that began with him losing his powers and the heroine dying continues up to the last few seconds of the show. The hero returns, they kiss, and the end. We see nothing more of the goddess/Orchid mix of a character. I'm still not sure how that works. We get robbed of seeing him in his overpowered state again and reuniting with his people and others. We see nothing of how others react to him coming back. We don't even get the wedding. I feel like the price we paid with all the angst and heartbreak wasn't worth the 3 seconds of HEA.

That being said... I LOVED everything else.
❥ The whole show was soooo AESTHETICALLY PLEASING, I can't stress this enough:
The cinematography was stunning. The intro and outro art was really something else, just absolutely gorgeous. I absolutely loved the costumes, especially Moon Supreme's armor. The soundtracks are amazing, especially the main theme/opening song (Cut Off Love (诀爱 Jue ai)) - I'm still listening to it now after the show ended, it gives me goosebumps and possibly PTSD to all the emotional scenes, lol.

❥ Some scenes were so EMOTIONAL, they made me cry:
The father-son scenes really opened an important theme of sacrifice. Heroine's sacrifice was gut-wrenching. And finally, the hero's sacrifice probably hit the most, because I really felt he was gonna disappear forever.

❥ The show was really FUNNY too, especially in the beginning! It had so many comic relief scenes that really made you cringe-laugh all the time.

TL;DR: get ready to laugh, cry, have PTSD from this. 10/10, worth rewatching and worth sticking with 36 episodes.

please don’t come @ me for not giving this 10/10

I LOVED THIS DRAMA. i started watching this drama because of Yu Shuxin. oh my god i did not regret it at all. It was so interesting to watch the scenes where DFQC and Orchid switch bodies. It was very cute to watch Didi copying Xinxin’s behaviors BUT SEEING XINXIN ACTING COLD AND CALCULATING??? OH MY GOD IM IN LOVE. The sound track is also very gorgeous 10/10 i find myself relistening to it quite often. i usually don’t do cp but Didi and Xinxin’s off screen chemistry is so cute. Though my only complaint is that it got boring towards the end when Orchid got resurrected as Xiyun, the ending where they completely skipped Orchid’s journey to resurrect DFQC by using the bone orchid also felt really rushed, they should have shown something similar to when DFQC spent years taking care of Orchid before she can return to a human body again…other than that i loved every part of the plot especially DFQC’s dream of being married with Orchid for 500 years AND the subplot which Lady Chidi and Ronghao was also really entertaining. My favorite arc was when they went to the human world together and DFQC even befriend Changheng as his first friend. Sadly I don’t think I could rewatch it again as it wouldn’t feel as magical as the first time I’ve watched it but I will look forward to the day that Didi and Xinxin works together again on a drama!

Le Démon ne pourra jamais rien contre l'Amour...

Il y a le royaume des Fées et la tribu de la Lune en guerre depuis des millénaires. le Seigneur de la Lune, le puissant démon Dong Fang Qing Cang a été scellé avec son armée depuis 30 000 ans. La fée Orchidée, tout à fait en bas de l’échelle sociale du royaume des Fées ne rêve que de gagner son immortalité, et sans trop le faire exprès elle brise le sceau qui retient Don Fang prisonnier, le liant à elle par le sceau du cœur. Et voilà notre magnifique démon obligé de suivre la petite fée insignifiante pour essayer de récupérer son armée…
Bon, mon résumé est insuffisant et bancal, mais ça n’a pas grande importance, parce que, même si je n’ai pas tout suivi dans les histoires de guerres, morts, résurrections et récupération des l’âme primitive, ce qui m’a emballé c’est la superbe histoire d’amour entre les deux personnages principaux. Je craignais au début une héroïne cucu et bêtifiante mais pas du tout, Orchidée a la vraie intelligence du cœur et son influence sera déterminante dans l’évolution de Don Fang, à qui elle va réapprendre les sentiments, les émotions, qu’on lui avait arrachées pour en faire le futur maître sans pitié de sa tribu. Autour de l’amour lumineux de Dong Fang et Orchidée s’entremêlent de sombres passions d’ambition ou de haine, ou même d’un amour désespéré qui pousse Rong Hao (un autre personnage du royaume des Fées) aux extrémités de la trahison et de la mort. C’est une histoire à la fois « de bruit et de fureur » et aussi de rédemption par le don de soi, dont la morale ultime est que le destin existe peut-être mais que le cœur peut le vaincre s’il y met suffisamment d’amour et de ténacité !
la fin m’a satisfaite, évidemment, mais j’aurais quand même aimé un petit bout d’explication…
L’OST est très belle, les décors et costumes aussi, et les Chinois (ceux du drama tout au moins !) sont fichtrement beaux (hommes et femmes, si je peux me permettre une classification archaïque et démodée… )
J’ai vraiment aimé ce drama que je me prépare à revoir incessamment sur Netflix, en srt anglais, mais au moins sans les tartines des paroles des chansons de Viki !
