It is rare to see such satisfying plot
There are heartbreaks, yes, but never in vain and not without a sound cause.
At first, i was drawn on how good the fighting scenes, gorgeous costumes and CGIs scenes. All these visual pleasantry paired with such ambient music made it even more otherworldly.
And then comes the characters, I think TLC is the best fictional anti hero ever created in chinese dramaverse. He is a master of scheming, seemingly heartless, and a tsundere to a fault. All the misunderstanding stemmed from his unwillingness to share his plan to his companions, which i would find unreasonable if not for the complexity of the situation he faced. I usually hated misunderstanding plot, but i did realized from the get go that TLC really could only conceal such situations, i would do that too if i was in his shoes.
At first, i felt this series focused on too much characters, but then these characters have profound existences and i can't deny their importance to the plot.
The death of characters doesn't feel unnecessary, sad, but it moved the plot onwards. And at the end of the series, i feel attached to all the characters involved that i felt the ending is rather satisfying than bittersweet.
The only sad part of the whole plot is where they all forgot they ever worked with an important companion. It is the most sensible ending that could happen in such times, hence my satisfaction for the ending, but i can't help but feel sad to the forgotten one.
