Yes! The leads have amazing chemistry! They really did justice to the characters! The love between WWX and LZ is evident even with all the censorship! I was definitely satisfied <3

Oh yeah, the novel has a really sweet ending! They actually end up together and confess their love <3 And there are some bed scenes as well XD

The future starts at episode 33! :) The first 2 are also the future! 3-32 are in the past! And 33 is the present, when he comes back 16 years later

Sadly, they won't find out that he can't use his sword until later! They don't find out until 16 years later after his "death" and him coming back! It was a very emotional scene when they found out what sacrifices he made for Jiang Cheng!

They are somewhat different! There is a more um... juicy/steamy scenes by the end of the novel XD

If you are hesistant to watch this because you want it to be more BL than it is, PLEASE give it a try anyways! I originally watched this with a mindset that there will NOT be much BL due to the censorship, and I really really enjoyed it. This is now one of my favorite dramas of all time, if not my favorite. This drama has more than just the bromance between the leads. The story is ABSOLUTELY amazing. The plot, the characters, the setting of the world they are living in, the soundtrack, the relationship between the leads... all simply phenonmenal! This is a gem! And even though they take out all the skinship scenes between the leads, you can still feel their love, I promise. The way that they look at each other and the things that they do for one another, especially how much Lan Zhan sacrified in order to protect Wei Ying... I promise you still feel their strong connection/relationship even without a blatant love confession or skinship scenes! You will not regret watching this <3

So Wei Wu Xian can’t use his sword to fight anymore because he gave his golden core to Jiang Cheng, and now he lacks spiritual power to do sword fighting. So his new way of protecting himself is using the flute and doing certain crafty tricks which other people see as dangerous. Lan Wangji is worried that Wei Wu Xian might lose control and not be able to control himself and that evil might take over sometime if he messes up. That’s why he gets known later as the “Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation.” His new ways are considered “demonic.” But he has no choice, because that was what he learned the past 3 months he was gone in order to protect himself since he can’t use his sword to fight anymore.

I've rewatched this 3 times now, and it's just as good everytime!
100% recommended!

I agree 100%! It is SO hard for me to move on right now. I've literally rewatched the drama SO many times now! I've read the novel over and over again as well. Post series depression is coming :(

The rating on Douban for this drama is a 7.9 which is freaking amazing! Most dramas on there can barely reach 7.0. Maybe the rating can jump up to 8.0 sometime in the future soon? XD
So happy for the success of this drama!

Yes, this drama is actually really popular in China as well! As the person above me mentioned, it is a 7.9 on Douban, which is an amazingly high rating! Most of the dramas can barely even reach 7.0 on there!

As you can see, The Untamed is really high compared to some other really popular dramas! Not only that, it's able to achieve that high score even with THAT many people rating it! It has the most people rating it as well out of this list of popular dramas :')

YES! I didn't need any sexual or skinship scenes in order to see the love between them! It's just so evident <3 The way that they look at one another and their actions towards one another just speak volumes <3

I wanted to watch this for Wang Yibo, but I really wish that I watched this before The Untamed, because after The Untamed, this drama was just incomparable for me :( I couldn't finish it because I wasn't as intrigued ahhhh

I feel you! I tried watching this, but I couldn't get into the story! I wish I saw this before The Untamed. The Untamed is such an amazing drama, and this was nowhere close to it :( So I ended up not being able to continue this drama haha

This is one of the first Chinese Xianxia dramas that I've seen, and it was amazing! Looking back at it brings so many memories!

Wow, he's an amazing actor! I first saw him in Chinese Paladin, and I have loved him since then!

Awh there was backlash? What for?

I did indeed drop it! I just got bored and couldn't continue :/

Wow that's amazing! This is already a really popular series, considering how many adaptations were made off of the novel so I wouldn't be surprised if this drama got really big as well! I know for sure that the actors gained a lot of popularity of this XD I've always heard of Mo Dao Zu Shi, but the drama was actually the first adaptation that I saw! And then I read the novel afterwards. I absolutely fell in love with this series! I'm onto the audio drama right now XD I wish that the Manhua was finished! I haven't really started the Donghua yet, but I'm waiting for season 2 to be finished before I start! :) I'm happy that this drama is doing well! I did notice the high rating on Douban so I'm happy for this drama <3

Still one of my favorite dramas of all time! Very lighthearted and cute! Rewatched it several times already. A classic <3
