No she didn't listen to the system because it was a life or death decision at that moment! The array set up was a literal "bomb" and the others couldn't supress it without her help...So I don't see how that makes her "choosing to go with the flow". I do agree with her trying to be more prepared and have a strategy and she might have not been the perfect FL with a halo but I think her flaws are what makes her more humane too...Cause I really can't imagine how I would act in her place...Cause is fun and games for both of us until you actually wake up in it and have no way out aside from listening to the system!

The girl is currently losing her memory cause of the system and turning into a real game character that's all I know! And I said to you earlier the choice happended without her knowing the side effect would be this...It was a life or death moment and needed the powers so whatever the side effect she went ahead and didn't even listen to what the system had to say...Cause if that demon's array in the capital went off she would long gone already and game over! You literally blame her for things she did unconsciously or had no control over it....I just can't understand what you want from her at this point...Like these things aren't even related to Mu Sheng and his "hotness"...And in the beginning girl had no feelings for him and just doing it with the purpose of hitting 100%...But guess what? Feelings can grow...And them falling for eo genuinely if anything just sped up the process so I don't see ur issue with that either...Sure you might not find mu sheng worthy of her but that's personal preference I guess...

Same here! This was the main reason why I felt the drama get too choppy on the bracelet /imperial city arc...And also because not only of the "not showing us rather just telling what happened" but also because some important scenes were neither shown nor told in detail but rather we just got to see the result...Overal that arc's editing was all over the place...I am glad the current arc feels a bit better paced tho and I hope the next eps get better cause the beginning of the drama was so strong...

How can you make someone genuinely fall in love with you (especially someone as suspicious and guarded as Mu Sheng) without putting any heart or interest in it?? lmao Also Mu Sheng heart is not made of stone(and neither is miaomiao's)...It's just that as someone who is guarded and has been hurt before it's hard to warm up to you...And basically, he is the type who will only care for those he considers "his people" hence the black lotus character reference...Whether she fears the system, accepts its rule or not...This is her only way to make it out of there...Whether she, you or anyone of us likes it or not..."Can she question for once that how evil the system is and if this game character Mu Sheng is a trap to keep her here and ultimately kill her. " Now...Are we even watching the same show lol If the system wanted her to fall in love with Mu Sheng to prevent her from leaving why did it set the rule of releasing her after Mu Sheng reached 100% ?? That's contradicting...And the current Musheng is deeply in love with her and already considers her one of his people (he literally said on today's ep he wouldn't mind dying to stop the catastrophe and save this world to protect his loved ones)
He would't hurt her...

We all know the og character had ill intentions for his sister...Before miaomiao entered her body the 2 siblings and Fuyi had already been living in her house and knew each other...Plus he found valid evidence of her being the one who broke the talisma on Yao's door on the very same day Miaomiao entered the body...So tho that was not her fault her acting like she cares for Yao all of a sudden and changing her attitude was 100% suspicious to Mu Sheng (as it should). It took a while after many tests to finally come and trust her good nature and realize it was genuine and no I don't think he only changed his attitude after the demon side reveal...This was just a big catalyst that sped up the process...You can see little changes earlier too!! Also, the system said that she had to win his love to go back home...So her actions of goodwill initially weren't pure-hearted as well and I don't get your "If I was in her place i wouldn't have given up on going back home ever. I love that he is hot but MiaoMiao deserves a peaceful life back home." comment cause her way to get home one way or the other WAS through her achieving 100% of his love lol
And also about this part " BUT is he really worth losing her memories over him and taking a huge risk of not being able to go home ?" She lost her memories as a side effect of her new powers...Which at the time she didn't know (the system tried to mention the side effects but she was rushing and had no time to listen) cause she needed to save everyone (herself included) from the demon's distractive array setup, which was about to go off...So it wasn't a conscious decision or an act of love for Mu Sheng but rather an act of her survival...

So about today's episode... I don't know if it's only me, but I have been feeling like Fuyi's master has been leading all four of them. The things he said to Fuyi and Yao about his identity, though not a lie, I doubt they're the full truth. It feels like he knows way more than he revealed, and he is just trying to lead them on by throwing them some clues. Also, Miaomiao's memory loss side effect after her powers got activated seems to be in full swing now...Girl has even forgotten the love percentage and everything but she still had the notebook she wrote the og novel plot on! So maybe that can give them clues about the city and Qilin Mountain...I start to feel more and more that this "resentful woman" might really have smth to do with Mu Sheng's mother...And I am very interested about Fuyi's backstory too!! His flashback looked quite chilling...

Okay, I think we are back on track after this new arc started!! I mean there are still many questions being raised every day but now we are at least getting some answers and the editing doesn't feel as choppy as it did in the Capital arc!! Btw most cdrama I have watched tend to have a very pleasing strong start, then fumble a bit in the middle before getting back on track again lol

As for ep 25 my commentary will follow in the replies under spoiler tag ^^

Yep sweet happy ending ^^

Blocked?? I have no idea...Minority/Our youth which is the title of this manhwa the drama is based on is a very good story and it's even shounen ai I think so no too explicit scenes in it...Maybe cause of the bullying and domestic violence it has in the begining??

I just found out about this adaptation today from X!! The og manhwa has been one of my all time faves so to see it get an adaptation and bring the characters and their struggles, love, and whole journey to life is very exciting!! I hope they do this justice (tho I don't mind minor changes) and I will be tuning in for sure!! It's such a bummer tho that we only get 1 ep/week TT

Yes cause the og is a manhwa called Our Youth/Minority!! It's a great webtoon honestly one of my fave and to see it become a J-BL adaptation was so surprising!! I am so excited and hope they follow the og storyline well ><

Same Lmaoo When I was watching the ep yesterday I remember posing the ep and zooming in ><

Miaomiao's resemblance to the Mu ancestor might have smth to do with the system giving her those powers I think...Like the connection probably happened after this change to the plot occurred...The fact that she has forgotten her real world must be one of the side effects as well(as many have said already). Also, I think the resentful demon might be Mu Sheng's mother after all...It would serve as a nice tragic twist and have mother and son fight against eo...And I am sure the reason she turned resentful was probably the cause of what the Dowader concubine did to the Qilin mountain separating her from the man she loves and her son...Plus maybe smth to do with Mu yao's father (I think he wasn't a good man unlike what his daughter thinks and hurt her which is why she came back to kill the whole Mu clan). Now I am also VERY curious about Fuyi's master....Who is that old man? Could he be the author after all?? Is that why he is so knowledgeable??

Hm...Today's ep was okay!! Personally, I liked it since the plot moved a bit forward and some things got revealed, even tho there are still many things left to be covered overall!! I just hope those 8 eps will be enough and they won't end the drama sloppily...Also, today's ep felt a bit more well put together. I hope they will keep it up until the end cause the Capital arc with the bracelet was choppy af on some parts of the eps...Now about the missing kiss scenes, unlike most people here, the kisses are not a priority for me as long as the leads have good chemi & cute moments together (which they do) so I am okay with it ^^

Btw Some thoughts after watching ep 24 below tagged in spoiler!

True to that...Most Cdramas have strong begining but start to famble either in the ending part or mid-way through the drama...While krdama usually have better pacing overal! But these days lack a bit in their plots like there are still gems but more rarely than before...Cdrama on the other hand seem more creative! I guess u can say both have their strong and weak points ^^

Personally I will agree that Cdrama have picked up their pace in the last couple of years and made me tune into them more compared to Kdrama (tho there are still 4-5 gems every year). However Thail BL are definitely a far cry from representing the best BL series lmao So tho I like BL I would def NOT reccomend those (there are only 2-3 worthy every year and the rest 30+ are overrated trash basically thai dramas value quantity over quality) and BL is more than thai dramas is a genre of it's own ^^

Oh thank you! I feel better now lol He was already getting on my nerves in these 13 eps with his perfect scholar mode on basically living in his own bubble like "a pure lotus that was sheltered from rain" cause of his privileged background...I really want him to get that reality check while looking at our leads but I would hate to see him make advances at Duan Wu when she is separated from Yan Zi Jing.

Oh I see, thank you! So his mother's surname Mu has no relation to the Mu family of demon cathcher's and she is a succubus demon? That makes sense for that bracelet being his mother's then since it had to do with seduction/bewitchment! But does that mean she really used that on Mu Sheng's father or was it a real love token between them? Another question added lmao

I see thank you!

So from ep 14-19 we will have their romance and then after ep 19 starts their "break up" phase? (I already had a feeling this drama would use that trope from the way things went that why I asked TT)
So do we know how long their separation will last??
And thank you for answering ^^
