I am not a novel reader so idk about actual villains but I do know that this novel has around 900 chaps and this season only covered around 300 chaps which is end of book 1/arc but the ending of that book is different from the ending of the drama. If you have watched post credit scene at the end then you can see there are hints of part 2 so they deviated a little from novel to give us cliffhanger ending & setup for S2. XQA was forgotten way later in the story for a short while in the novel but they changed that & included it at the end of this arc

Ehh Yunhe includes dafeng in 2025 list, Tencent incudes it in 2025 list & calls it their first 2025 explosive 30k HI drama so i don't agree with your last line but you do you. I am not interested in debating about this anymore. I don't think me saying anything will change anyone's mind because you have your own way but i just wanted to express my opinion

He has sued 5 YSX fan accounts on weibo out of which 2 are her big fans who has direct access to her studio & has also appeared in her dramas (meaning they are either close with her or she acknowledges them). This matter has quickly made it to top 1 hotsearch on weibo & xhs where every other fandom including ding yuxi fandom is thanking whd for suing her fans because they all suffered because of her toxic fans. Ever since LGIEF, whd name was dragged to hotsearch & they memed his character dfqc to promote her new drama. They all wish for him to d*e on his birthday, doxxed his phone number & cursed him, fantasizing about bl*wing up his family restaurant and many more toxic stuff. Not just him but they also were involved in slandering xu kai, bai lu & zls that's why everyone is with whd & cheering him for this decision. Timing of this also doesn't help her because her drama flopped hard & people were already exposing her for paying marketing accounts to praise her dramas & slander other dramas & now this happened which is resulting in her getting cancelled everywhere in China rn

He is but we didn't focus that much on long fighting choreography & it was more of him striking enemies on one blow

There is a Twitter melon account who use your list to rank dramas & they didn't mention dafeng on both year list that's why i thought it wasn't included in both 2024 & 2025. Anyway i still don't agree with your logic but i respect you taking your time to be patient with me & replied honestly. Sorry if i was rude but that account told me it was you who didn't include it so i thought it was deliberate. We can agree to disagree on this but your list do help many of us to keep track so keep it up 👍

Right??

She didn't even give it fair chance tbh because most of her criticism would have been non existent if she continued the drama

The thing is you have posted these rankings of 2024 tencent heat index list on x but dafeng is not there because it didn't reach 30k on 2024 so reasonable to not include it there because it didn't happen yet but when 2025 ranking happens & we still don't see dafeng ranking on x then most will wonder where it is??
Putting it on 2024 now means nothing when most people have already seen your 2024 ranking list at the end of the year & now looking forward to 2025 list. Most will not go back to see if dafeng is added now. Plus, the fact i saw comments under your post asking that "what drama will be first one to reach 30k for tencent this year? " when it is a "fact" that dafeng reached 30k "THIS" year that's why your post feels misleading because many see & think no drama this year reached 30k heat index when that is false

Yeah I am not gonna debate on this further because this will go longer if i start providing all the data so I'll just answer your question: if a drama is mostly aired on 2024 then heat index will most likely be from that year too but even if it is not, i think putting it on 2024 list is not wrong because at the end of the day, it is 2024 drama which peaked at the end & reached 30k. With dafeng, our disagreement is mainly on that you consider it 2024 drama so let me ask you a rhetorical question: if a drama airs on 31 dec then you will consider it 2024 drama despite it airing almost all of it's episodes on 2025??
All of it's popularity, rating & metric is achieved on 2025 but we are fixated on putting it on previous year list because it started on 31 dec 2024 & doesn't matter if it was basically a jan 2025 drama because it aired few hours before new year. That's the logic you are using for gotd & it feels illogical. But since you have made up your mind then i am done explaining it to you why it is wrong to not rank it here

It is stupid to include it in 2024 because gotd broadcasting period was 53 days out of which it only aired on last 4 days of 2024 & 49 days it aired on 2025. It reached 30k on jan 11 but just because it started on dec 28th we are gonna ignore the fact that tencent itself consider it their first hit drama of 2025?? Yunhe list rank dafeng as their top 3 drama of 2025. Most of us completed this drama this year because it aired mostly this year. When you exclude a drama from all 2025 list but many audience & platforms in China consider it 2025 drama then it gives the impression that drama failed to achieve these goals because anyone checking this will expect dafeng to be here & if they don't find it, they think it didn't achieve it. Same with listing ratings of 2025 dramas on mdl but not mentioning gotd. I would have understand if more than half of the drama was broadcasted on 2024 but this feels trying to censor its achievements & giving wrong impression to audience. Our source of info should be based on facts & not personal opinions. I hope you understand what I am saying & maybe update this list because it is really unfair to exclude a drama from all these lists when it aired mostly this year

Why guardians of the dafeng is not here? It reached 30k heat index on Jan 11,2025. Tencent consider it their first explosive cdrama of this year & mdl didn't even include it??

It isn't officially announced yet & we all just know this rumor

Broadcasting period is still ongoing. Views have decreased a lot so heat might not be that high rn. The trend for tff is 30-35 million views per ep on yunhe. The drama market condition is very bad in China rn. Most dramas are suffering to even get 30 million views per ep & very few got over 40-50 million views per ep this year so far

Tbh i also only watch main couple moments mostly on rewatch so i get you haha

But she said she don't like slow nature & repeated flashbacks whereas L&P has flashback for 17-18 eps without going back & forth in past & present so i think she might like it. I remember forgetting that i was watching the flashback until they went to present again 🤣

I recommend lighter & princess if you like hate to love trope

How did you check this?

If you want a fluffy & feel good lighthearted drama then try when i fly towards you. It is by the same author who wrote the first frost & Hidden love

This isn't accurate. TFF is definitely the first modern romance hit cdrama of this year but overall it isn't the only drama which is considered hit in china. Under the skin s2, Drifting away, Guardians of the dafeng & Flourished Peony are all ranked higher in terms of avg views per ep

I haven't watched any modern cdramas of this year yet but out of all 3 currently airing, this one interest me the most

Yeah I don't get why it is taking them this long.... hopefully nothing will be cut
