Delightful with some darkness
I really enjoyed the story line. I did skip over most of the battles but the story / slow burn romance was pretty good.I did NOT like the camera movement and the weird screaming music at the end of an episode was intense and jarring.
I love the camaraderie of the characters, how they developed. I love how the bad guys still had a depth to them and the intense storytelling of it all.
Honestly, I never laughed so much. I found the interactions continuing to hide the truths of various people highly amusing. I really enjoyed episode 26 in particular.
I love strong female characters and Fan Changyu is probably the strongest and best of all C-Drama characters I've ever seen. She doesn't get weak, she always remains strong and her character doesn't change. I love that. I love all the supporting cast too. I love that they are all changed by her simple truths, honesty and forth-righteousness.
The darkness, of course, is the fighting and battles. The story wouldn't have been as great without them but maybe they didn't need to be quite so long and intense. That's just my opinion. I'm pretty sure most people enjoyed the battles too.
