Shi Lai Yun Zhuan (2024)

A short c-drama shonen?

I'm surprised no one has written yet a review for this series, and also that it has such a low score for the standards of this site (it currently has a 6.6 when I'm writing this, which in MDL usually means "don't touch it even with a stick").

Look, this is a short c-drama, so it has low budget production shortcomings that has to be expected, but if you accept that, I think this should be enjoyable for people who like shonen manga or anime, cause this show has a lot in common with that kind of story: likable, juvenile, silly except when it counts ML; 3 beautiful girls helping him and showing interest in him in different ways; and a lot of "battles", that in this case consisted in stone gambling competitions (something that I didn't even know existed before watching this show).

It has a light tone, except for some episodes towards the end when it sudenly becomes too dramatic, but it comes back to the light side for the ending.

It also has a mystery villain, other laughable villains, a missing grandpa, a femme fatale, an annoying rich girl and many, many stones.

What more can I say? I had fun.
