Note to self: if you ever visit Thailand, avoid jungles... there's people with guns, with powers, with powders, with rifles, you get lost (BUT found a second later) or kidnapped (BUT rescued thanks to GPS hidden under mugs), there's zombies, ancient cities with demonic powers, tombraiders, scriptraiders... holy moly.

I'll be trivial, but....... I just can't stop looking at Big, he's such a fine man!

I think this is exactly what the director wanted - he's a pretty good actor usually, and it feels he was told to act like a crazyassb!tch... and so he's doing as told.

If TongTong hasn't lost his voice after all this screaming, he never will...

I still haven't watched Dashing Youth (but I will as soon as I finish MDZS donghua) so I can't compare, but TBOY also did a better rendition of fights (I mean, some things like the huge cgi beats are indeed cringe, but that's also part of the charm, right? XD).

Siwat: "can you forgive my father?"
Answer from Khao: jump on him and basically eat him. o.o

These two boys (and Thara's actor too) are very nice to watch, but everything that happens has less and less sense episode after episode. Mind me, the base plot is actually pretty intriguing, but the execution is a mess... there is almost no scene in which i'm watching without saying "why?" or "what are they doing?" or "this is very stupid" or "that's not an intelligent thing to do".
That's such a pity because this could have been a huge series.

In episode 18, after Li Han Yi is attacked and is almost dying in bed, he and the Scholar Deity cure her - but while doing so, Zhao Yu Zhen absorbs one toxic needle from Li Han Yi to save her and that will cause him to die.

Ahahahah yes I've seen there's also a chibi version, it can definitely be a perfect way to recover from all the blood, drama, tragedy and so on! XD

Thanks for all your suggestions and notes! <3

I watched this when it aired back in the days and I remember I loved how it managed to be manga-like because One Pound Gospel is one of my favourite works from Rumiko Takahashi... it was a very fun ride - the series might not have aged well, but Kame's acting was so damn funny!

Noooooo I have it on my nightstand but never get enough time to start reading in peace. Work is killing me T_T

Anyway, I had recognized some voices and that way of calling "Wei Ying" with so much pathos is indeed unforgettable!

I just finished S1 (that I loved, narratively speaking it's so much clearer than the drama although it has way less screentime) and S2 which, tho', seems to cut too short on some very important moments. I think I'll start S3 tonight. <3

After finishing Blood River I couldn't jump directly to another wuxia, so I finally decided to watch the donghua from Mo Dao Zu Shi, because I was missing WWX and LWJ... and I'm really pleasently surprised!

The first episodes are actually more easy to follow than the Untamed first ones (there were definitely too many characters for me) and I'm loving the voice actors!

Next step will be the novel, but I'll need some quiet time for that.

Yes, I know the backstory and inspiration from DB.

What I meant is, visually in terms of CGI that is used in a more "cartoonish" way - I can suspend my disbelief for the laws of physics while watching martial arts movies or series (or dramas in general), and I'm happy to do so because the final effect of these "superpower martial arts" is usually elegant and a pleasure to watch... but some of the scenes here feel "too lazy" in the way the characters move on screen. For example, MuYu's umbrella flying around like Aladdin's magic carpet. T_T

(I don't know how to explain this in English in a very good way, sorry)

Aaaaand, it's done.
Not quite what I was expecting but I loved it: I was impressed by all the actors, especially the ones playing Su Chang He, prince Langya and Tang Lianyue (I already knew Gong Jun would slay this role, so no doubts on that) and by how the story was always flowing and intertwining events and characters.

For some reasons I still liked TBOY better, to be honest, maybe because it was more "brotherhood-packed" and all the female characters in there kicked asses (yes, Sikong QianLuo was one damn fighter!)... here I had some issues with the fights, they felt as direct out of a Dragon Ball episode and sometimes they were too packed with cringey CGI that lacked elegance.

But anyway, getting the chance to see Gong Jun with white hair once again was a treat, AND I hope they'll cast some of these faces in TBOY's second season too. :)

9/10! <3

Not needed, you can watch it as a stand-alone drama too (although watching DY before might help in knowing the backstories of most characters).

I thought the same thing, also because Apo said he didn't put any peach in the drink...

Me and Wh...aaaaaat did we just see? That was one great ending for episode 5, gogogo BigPark!

PS, I'll say it at every comment: Big is such a fine man!

"Do you see what I see, Professor?"

"Three hot guys being all secretive in the middle of the forest BUT right in front of our nose? Yes, I do!"

This is so much fun! XDDDD
Poppy in the butler role is hilarious and the comedy is so well made, it's a mix of surreal moments, exaggeration and pure fun! And yet, there are some heartfelt moments that pop up to warm our hearts!

Big is so goodlooking and Park is way more natural here than in their previous series... love their chemistry! Also, a huge shoutout to Jeng who, aside of being so cute in both worlds, also is one hell of a natural actor! He's so smooth!

Can't wait for next episodes, this is my comfort show!

I saw the poster by chance and I thought: "I know those eyes...!" <3
....can't wait to see GJ in this series, the short trailer looks great!

ahahaha yes, when the crazy lady appeared I had to rewind because for a moment I thought I was in the wrong drama, it kinda felt like a ghost or a zombie popping out of nowhere! XD
