Eveything is good
Is this the first zombie-themed BL series? Because I think it is, at least for Chinese BL! And honestly, what a way to introduce this genre to us!
Starting with the acting, they did a great job portraying their characters, especially during the parts where we started hating Lin Zhan. HAHAHAHA. Their chemistry is top-tier, too, and it doesn't stop with the series because my FYP is literally filled with their live broadcasts and how they flirt with each other. Okay, back to the story! 🤣
Storyline-wise, it was straight to the point, and they were able to showcase the story without letting the romance drag everything down. There's a good balance between the action, the zombie apocalypse, the character development, and the romance.
I love how the zombies looked, although I'm not sure if they used AI to enhance some of their appearances. Speaking of zombies, one thing I didn't like was the inconsistency in how they were portrayed. In the earlier parts of the series, the zombies were just scattered around, behaving like zombies usually do. But then came the airport scene, where the zombies seemed to retain some of their natural routines from when they were still human. So, what is it exactly? HAHAHAHA.
I would have loved to know more about the classification of zombies, especially since they introduced a rare type but only gave us a glimpse of it. How did this zombie apocalypse actually start? What are the different types of zombies? What makes them different from one another? I wished they had explored more of the technical aspects of the zombie world.
And have you noticed that after the airport scene, we barely got any more zombie scenes? I guess the production might have been too costly, so they had to focus more on the main storyline involving the first and second couples. But honestly, the funny thing is that I didn't even notice the lack of zombie scenes until I finished the series. I was that invested in what was happening! HAHAHAHA.
As for the action scenes, you can tell that the actors took their roles seriously because the fight sequences were very satisfying to watch. Kudos to everyone, especially A-Leh! He really embraced his character as a tool of the research team. I just wish I could remember the exact name of the team. LOL.
And about us hating Lin Zhan during the middle part of the series, well, I think that's part of the package. In situations like this, there will always be someone whose decisions make you want to pull your hair out, and this time, it just happened to be Lin Zhan. But I do understand his perspective. If all you wanted was to save your brother, you would probably do everything in your power to make that happen, too. His decisions might not always be right, but I could understand where he was coming from.
I also love how the story prioritized the zombie apocalypse and survival aspect, with romance coming in as a bonus. That's why whenever we got those romantic moments, they felt even more exciting to watch. The NCs between the main leads were also shot in a really good way. They weren't unnecessarily dragged out. Just the right amount, and they worked perfectly with the story.
Now, for the second couple! Whoo! This was such a refreshing dynamic for us. A half-zombie and a human? VERY CREATIVE! I love how they made this pairing possible, and honestly, their relationship brought something different to the series. And the ending they gave these two is one of my favorite scenes in the entire series. At least they got to stay together until the very end, even though it was bittersweet. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. 😭❤️
Overall, it's a good watch! It might sound like a long series with 24 episodes, but most of the episodes have short runtimes, so it's actually an easy binge-watch.
And now, here's my theory... I THINK THERE WILL BE A SEASON 2! And honestly? I WILL NOT COMPLAIN. HAHAHAHAHA. GIVE IT TO US! 🧟♂️😭
