Towards the end the story got rushed in my opinion, but overall a very good drama. The level of sweetness and cuteness is amazing. FL is adorable, doesn't annoy me. ML's acting is flawless. 9.5/10
I have to say, though, that the subtitles are terrible. So if you're not used to bad subtitles or don't know at least a little bit of Chinese, it's going to be tough.
I also came to believe that ZYJ is quite good at acting.
Too bad season 2 is unlikely to ever come out, but since there's a novel, I can always go and read it.
And here is the main problem with Chinese dramas once again. Adapted from a web novel, and I presume the web novel is quite lengthy. The author keeps writing, endlessly writing. A rather common issue. They write too much and have no sense of moderation.
This could have been a good drama if there were only 30 episodes.
But with 60 episodes...
It's dreadfully boring, especially with a plot that keeps going downhill.
I liked first 30 episodes, but it's a real challenge to finish all 60 episodes.
It was good in the beginning, but quickly became average. Too many secondary couples. At a certain point, I got the feeling that the supporting actors were taking up a lot more screen time than the main actors. A lot of things are exaggerated or not really make sense.
While the male leads may have a relationship that could be called "brotherly," many people say, "BL! BL!". If two people are not blood related but act like two good brothers, it's not BL in any sense.
My personal opinion, of course.
But I feel like nowadays in any drama I see, If a man touches another man (gives him a friendly hug for example), some people already say that this is a BL. Like, why...?
This drama somewhat reminded me of My Heroic Husband which was my first drama, and I liked it very much, but this one is so much sillier lol. It's alright, I guess. You have to be in a right mood to watch this, though.
This is harem, by the way. And well, I don't like harems.
Like, he's got two wives and a bunch of girls running around.....
It's kind of annoying.
Wives, too. With one, I didn't understand when and how he had feelings for her. But she got so much screen time.
Unfortunately, there isn't much chemistry between the characters.
I only liked the relationship between him and Liu Xin Yu, but she somehow didn't get much screen time.
So...
The ending is ridiculous as well
This is not to be taken seriously, but even on a non-serious level......
The story is OK, but I really just purely personally don't like Huang Zi Cheng for whatever reason, lol.
WDX can act, but I just don't like his character.
I also feel like the plot will become draggy after the second half. No way they managed to make 38 episodes interesting and dynamic enough all the way through, lol.
Not much romance here... WDX and LYT pairing doesn't work very well for me either. So it's probably a good thing there's not much romance.
Nah... Somebody says it was "insane", but imo it was boring and annoying. 5/10. Although I generally dislike all zombie apocalypses, so... Not my cup of tea.
About kisses, honestly, I get annoyed by people who think that without a huge amount of kisses there can be no chemistry. Romance is not about kisses, lol.
But for the sake of interest, I did a little research, haha.
In my understanding, he prefers to avoid kisses, but if he can't do without them, he does them.
I don't know, either it's respect for his wife, or it's a strict wife, haha, or some other reasons...
I only watched two of his dramas.
In Under The Power he didn't do kisses for some personal reasons and it seemed that no one insisted too much. I even read that at that time he had some kind of illness, so such contact was undesirable, although I don't know for sure.
In Blue Whispers he did kisses, you can see it in the BTS videos, so I don't know. Although with Blue Whispers I know that Reba personally met with his wife, and maybe that's why the issue was resolved right away.
In any case, all this nonsense about "he doesn't do kisses" in my opinion is exaggerated too much.
If you don't watch his dramas just because there's no actual kissing in it, you're a weird person.
This is considered to be one of Reba's best works,right? But it is absolutely not. Still an interesting drama, though.
My PERSONAL opinion, of course.
Also, those manhua inserts are annoying. Who came up with such stupidity in the first place? Or was it the original author's condition? Either way, it's just stupid. Am I watching a drama or an anime?
I really-really liked Seven and Allen here. Amazing duo, actually. They played well. But the plot is a bit of a mess, to be honest. Personal opinion, of course.

I am still watching, though.
Chulan's character development takes too long, so you can get tired of watching those cringe scenes and the endless crying of the main character.
But when he gains a little bit of intelligence and courage, it gets really interesting.
The drama is a little different and a little better than donghua. but the problem remains the same.
My personal opinion, of course.
Also...
In my opinion.
If you use the same methods, you're no better than the people you're taking revenge on.
You say they are bad for killing, but you yourself kill them just as brutally.
In this story, though, no one is trying to become a buddha. So it doesn't really matter.
It's just a revenge story. One of the best I've ever seen.
9/10.

Someone complains about the lack of kissing again, but romance isn't about kissing, lol. My personal opinion, of course.
On a negative note, another love triangle. Smart lady and princes bouncing around.

It's not bad if you're not too picky. But for me personally, it was rather a waste of time.
Seven Tan played well.
ML is a mess.
