I think we are going to agree to disagree. The point I was trying to make is that the drama puffed up her abilities but the details in ep 12 was sloppy writing.

He Yan the new recruit is unproven in battle. She just won 2 fights against 2 other recruits.

Its like a warrant officer saying that this private could draw a defence map. Or a senior non- com who sat back and let a recruit fight against the enemy leader. It doesn't matter which country, which century, drama or real life- the narrative was jarring because it made me go out of the drama story flow moment? That's why I made the original comment.

So we have to agree to disagree. I am fine with what you posted. What I said was its lazy writing to drive a plot forward.

Why would an instructor listen to a 6 month old recruit? That's what she sold her story as.

The enemy got into the garrison. There were no sentries at the game etc.

The time frame for this was or should be pre 19th century. They had no guns remember?

Episode 12.

The barracks had no patrols on the wall and at the gate.

How did the Liehe troops ride into the barracks? There wasn't even any challenge or spike barriers. This is a freaking permanent camp/garrison.

A chief instructor who doesn't know strategy? Why would he listen to her? She is a newbie with no battle experience.

Yeah. Needed to get it off my chest.

I know its the plot device but the writer needs to do some research. Cavalry will trump infantry. Only 12 deaths. For God's sake there is artistic license and pure laziness in writing.

Lmao. I lost the momentum. I am currently reading an ebook. I will catch up later. Of the 3 currently airing Cdrama Summit of my youth has been the most narratively correct. Its not fantastic but at least its more realistic.

But yeah I remember not bathing for days during my army days. Yes I am female. And yes she is immaculate. With the super long hair too.

It's Ryan Cheng. I would watch if he is the good guy. He doesn't do enough dramas that I can afford to just drop it.

No. Its usually one or the other. I just checked ep 11 is out but ep 12 is not. Its the 2130hrs release. Super weird release this time round.

MDL keeps posting release 1330hr and 2130hrs twice a day here. Gets me so confused.

I have seen lesbians who are tougher and more musculine than her.

She is a pure petite female who walks like a girl, doesn't even talk like a tough girl, also has a voice like a girl and doesn't disguise it, ant waist, fair like sunlight never touched her, has a perfect and total skin care, hands like a girl, no Adam's apple.

Basically.... which part is like a boy? Much less an experienced general?

Fact. This is 2025. Do you personally know or have come into contact with feminine yet tough female soldiers or police women? I have. Now that persona? The director didn't get it. China has dramas where they have female police officers. The couple I saw were not bad. I remember a drama the female cast were all female Special Forces soldiers. My God that was bad. That is the vibe I am getting. She is doing well with the fight scenes though but she just doesn't have the female soldier vibe. Or brought up as a boy vibes.

That is odd.

You mean on the legal channels or illegal streaming sites?

Does it get released twice a day? 8 hours apart. That is so odd.

As long as its in the donghua descriptions then its ok.

Its no the quality. Its the style. The strobe lights and the firing sequences of those arrays. That's what i am talking about. I went to YouTube just now just to doublecheck that I didn't give out the wrong comparisons.

Don't worry about it. I am still continuing the drama. I just remembered those video games. It used to be in my hostel during college and I played it for stress relief. Its just that I broke down the elements of the fight scens because I play video shooting games and I also happen to watch a lot of Stargate.

You go enjoy the show. I am just happy to watch Yang Yang.

Er I have actually seen better ones. I would say though it has the one of the MOST special effects in any Cdramas. It is a lot. Maybe tha
t's where the budget went. Have you noticed its repetitive? I mean its the same artifacts so it has to be the same.

I watched those shiny green, orange and yellow light shows in person and on tv. Bring up the New Year countdown shows on TV from many years ago.

The shoot ' em spray effects. Watch your video games. The arcade ones. Some are 20 years old or more. Not the Minecraft or Roblux ones. Not even Brawl Stars but the older ones.

I recall some xianxia dramas and their arrays but yeah this drama is heavy on their laser. I suspect the budget was used up because there is that much CGI in each episode. What I want to know is if the books had such descriptive fight scenes or is it the drama writer who wanted such fight scenes.

I've been very busy in real life so I just watched. I think I finally understand why Youku needed more edit. And why the special effects seems off. I understand the budget was big so why was the special effects so predictable and dated? Is it the budget or is that what happens in the book?

Let's break it down to

1. Wire work. So much of it.
2. Postures- very obvious postures and positions. Its almost wooden as if they are performing to specific instructions.

3. Voice masking. Old tech.
4. Laser show. Also old tech. Must be 10 years or more. There is so much laser graphics used.

5. Graphics. Litèrally like those you see in the older computer games. They didn't change or use their imagination.

6. The monster designs and also the smoke spirits. Geez. Did they reuse the monster designs?

7. The defensive or offensive arrays. I swear, they remind me of StarGate.

8. Did I see some Beyblade designs graphics.

9. So many force fields.

There are no bold or new techniques or designs. There are so many shoot 'em dead games.

I would admit that the actor is good looking. Exactly my type of guy but totally not lovable for me to side his affairs. He reminds me of the 2 other good looking actors. Can't remember the names.

I have zero 2nd lead syndrome. Zilch.

When do they reach adulthood? They are adorable but I am on ep 3 and need to stop for the night. Goddamit I have a full day and weekend and cannot afford to sleep at like 2am.

I was trying to work out the missing X factor for thecrole. However Ryanf Cheng and his brooding gazeis enough for me.

I picked up Summit of ourcyouthcyou see. So that's a guaranteed romance so I guess I would just have to deal with future ir probable future torture and punishments scenes here.

That new drama? I am on it. They cast a whole heap of hunky young guys. Like with good builts. Even better body shapes than the bodyguard for the ML and that Cheng guys. They have the builts to be soldiers in this drama.

I am not a fan or looked at his bio.

I am actually not crazy and fyi I actually need to describe people's looks in my work. So I observe cheekbones etc.

I searched for 5 minutes. He's only 23. I need photos of him when he is really young. You can only tell when they are primary school. Its things that don't change. The eyes- shape. Nose. Lips. Ears. Jawline surgery cannot be used as young children have baby fat anyway so ehen the face grows it
changes.


All I find are photos of a good looking guy. Even without plastic surgery he still gives off WXY vibes.
