Ep34: heartbreaking episode. To kill off one of tgebmain protogonists like that ... whynwould ypu give pne of the most important prop to the stupidest person in tye room?? Why would they not carry the props with them always.. and most importantly, it seems ruan lanzhu anticipated his death. Why didnt he find ways to survive??? A smart guy like ruan lanzhu would not die like that, at this point i would like to believe he feigned his death to hoodwink players and box demon... i could be wrong in my assumptions . But this is only way to survive this episode.... 😅
I love the drama for so many things..firstly, to show so many differeny types of worlds in the form of different doors, viewer is not sure what he/she is going to be served next in the next door..each challenge. Ambience is different .. while it is heart racing , anxiety inducing , it is also heart warming to see some great frendships , some survival stories built on mutual trust , personal sacrifice to protect each other..also, there is so much joy in guessing , the story behind the game, the story that is on , the story the will unviel ... it was heart breaking to watch some heart touching characters die , esp li dong yuan, and heart burning moments seeing crass greediness , and backstabbing ..and unnecessary killings.. The main motive for the game creation being 2 kids wanting to recreate a happy world they didnt had themselves using VR world, and to corrupt it and make it an anathema to their original dream must be really biggest heartbreak for the game creator. It reflecting exactly the real world values, which luishi and his friend probably wanted to escape from in their dream VR world, is really a tragedy... so much to learn and so much to enjoy from this wonderful series... wonderful watch this one
Am amazed at the writer of this wonderful series. This is in the league of harry potter series.. as charming, or more .. wonder what gives to birth such a brilliant gem.. next, the directorial and screen writing department... this could have gone brilliantly wrong , in wrong hands... kudos for a job brilliantly done.👏👏...next , casting department , for choosing a good cast doing equally good job... and lastly , the art department for making the worlds behind each door very engaging and adding immendely to the series..

Hmm..no please.. this is fun..making my own conclusions after each episode.. however off the nark they might be.. i started with assuming maybe , just may be ruan lanzhu is the original maker of the game, seeing his activism in trying to clean the game.. then after the juishi' s dorm made first appearance.. and him feeling a lot of familiarity, i assumed maybe he made it himself and forgot due to some mysterious reasons... and now, after few more episodes. It seems juishis best friend from college with whom he had bad fall out is the game creator ..since he inserted their dorm room into the game..and also, seems he is trying to say something using this insert to juishi... lets see if this is correct guess.. and what message juishis friend from college wishes to say to him

Ok , i also have a weird theory.. may be all of it is just hallucinations juishi is experiencing.. didnt thag internet cafe guy day that one of the side effects of playing is players experiencing hallucinations.
some thoughts after watching ep3: it seems 1. lanzhu knew juishi from before entering the 1st door , and he could be the one who couriered the game cd in 1st episode, post which he entered the door when he went back home. 2.lanzhu knew before itself that juishi will enter the door, and was waiting for him. he behaves very familiar with juishi right from the start, while juishi doesnt. makes one wonder , lanzhi knew of juishi , must have been tracking him for some time and hence feel familiar .. 3. i suspect this could be because juishi played the trail pack of the game some 1000 times and since lanzhu appears to be the creater of the game , may have known about juishi from data tracking of the game??.
If feng wenqing is time looper, as deducrd by ML in ep11.. then Mo mudt know about the time loop thing, as both wenqing and him seem to be pretty close in those days when she was gettinh treatment from him.
What a hilarious show! I dropped this show once. Started watching on a whim and discovered a gem... THE most hilarious show i have ever watched in drama history. Love all characters , esp female lead. Watching her for the 1st time. Havent seen her in any shows before. She is sooooo good. Even 10 is too small a rating for this show. 👍👍👌👌👏👏
the biggest teach in this series is what you are teach your child - in the form of how you are treating them (pokhai) and what you are telling them (lookmee) - impacts her or him Phuchong could have been more kind, and need not be unnecessarily insulting and humiliating towards Phokhai , and could have treated more equally all his sons.. his attitude towards his mother and him, irrespective of kind and nice behavaviour of his both legitimate sons, created a monster who was bent on stealing everything from him and his sons , even at the cost of harming innocents unrelated to this family In the case of lookmee, it seems she is an only child, whose father (parents ) brought her up with a lot of care and progressive ideas , and groomed her to take over his business - Mistake of her father seem to be to tell her to always choose best and be number 1 . she follows this without regard to human cost , and disregard to any values. she takes paths inimical to the culture she lives in - extremelt brash , arrogant , no respect towards elders or people in respectable role in soceity( teachers here) ... in the beginning i assumed this was because she has to make her place in a male dominated business world, Even in such a place , with her fathers backing she could still made her impact with out rudeness or arrogance. infact she was in best place to be No 1 with her fathers monetary power and inlaws business power (if she had married Phanin) = she would have been a queen without effort - ruled both financial and business world together with her maternal and inlaws backing. i didnt understand till end why owning /stealing her future inlaws business was that important, since after Yo's death Phanin was only legitimate son and Pokhai has no place to take over /sieze business.. so both her fathers and inlaws businesses was for her taking. Her nastiness put off Phanin even before anything began in their relationship. am surprised her father (who seem to be pretty agressive himself in winning!) has no clue what paths/actions his daughter is treading.... he appeared shocked when the revelation happened in the end. i wonder if she grew up without mother who could have teached her a different values? it would have been nice to know more about her earlier life
While watching this series it makes me wonder the patience of Lis.... Yo, Nont and Panin... all 3 crazy obsessive idiots... she seem to attract such shit...so many times i felt she should have sternly told off Yo in the earlier episodes and Nont in later episodes.. what useless idiots, who dont understand boundaries, she told them time and again she sees them as ONLY friends and that will never change..they buzz around her like flies thinking some day she will accept them if they just stay within her eye sight. The amount of damage each cause , selfish self centred idiots doesnt even seem to realise or care.. when Yo asked to register marriage with her for the sake of her yet to be born child, you could read the bustling happiness inside him, to have somehow make it to her spouse status.. and that idiot Yo gone one cra cra zone once he realises her relationship with his brother... Lis and Lin are the only true epitomes of friendship..rest all , friends in name sake only, all waiting in wings for Lis to fall in love with them...
Ep4.. am just wondering how is it in anyway FL's fault. That brother of ML is a blot on friendship. He assumed everything , and not even leaving her with free choice to pick her own love. Between him and ML, it seems not reciprocating back is her big sin, even if ML's brother never explicitly told her his feelings. Both ML and his brother are bigger evils to spoil a young innocent woman's life between them. In retrospect, the villians seem better.. ML's half brother deserves every bit of family wealth. And the nang rai... i dont mind her either, given what ML did to FL , the ML's familys deserve what is coming their way ! *sigh*.? Enough of rant...
Ohok, while i was leaning towards parallel universe theory, another twist is making me lean different story versipns towards, dreams of a comatosed FL ..most likely this is what it is, unless the writers hid more twists ..🤣🤣🤦♀️
Ep8 , non stop binging. What yardstick you need to measure on how good a drama is. Nah, not binging because there is no dramas to watch. Set aside others to watch this 👍
At this point, dont know who is a bigger psycho.. there are 2, both screaming huge red flags and either could be reaponsible for what FL is experiencing...
Watching something different after a long time.. this series can seem difficult to understand. Too many things thown at u , making u wonder if she really has mental distortion issue, or parallel universe thing ( the doc proposed it, funnily!), or may be case of usurping her assets(only daughter?? , FL parents seem richie rich), cause accident and plant false memories ) , give medicine to cause hallucinations. Blackmail psychologist and others(?) To make her believe she is losing it to make her not leave him ever or make her legally invalid to gain her assets or gain legal custody of her.. so many possibilities ... wonder which direction this series will take..
Also mother ending in mental institution.. wonder what happened there? Atleast 1 thing she dreamed up/saw ( her sister in glass box!) she found clues to it in the studio ...
The 2 redflags, maybe both psychos working together???
Ep4 , I have started watching this on whim , while browsing randomly on youtube . I didnt expect anything from it, it turned out to be totally surprise. I like the suspense, the way the series is moving forward.. I have various theories on what is going on, nevetheless, i have to add more as the story is moving forward. so far good, hope this end well, and is written well.
watching it after dropping it few times .. couldn't manage to complete 1st episode.. but ratings got me curious…
the way FL's mother reacts when she sees ML makes one wonder if she has crossed paths and has any role in his issues at school...and if ML knew FL from before school, since he seem to have paid some attention from first moment he lays eyes on her
watching it after dropping it few times .. couldn't manage to complete 1st episode.. but ratings got me curious enough to give it one more chance.. pushed myself to complete 1st episode.. it was worth it.. the story gets interesting after that , also never been fan of chen feiyu... not sure why i couldnt like him... took me few episodces to like ...
ep9/10 ... i was surprised that one person ZhangXiaobai could bully so many - not just students , but also deans of UG and graduate school , and school could do nothing? ... steal projects, make profits off juniors efforts , get cheap labour from students , bully them into submission, not allow them to graduate , pay them peanuts.. and no one had a hint ? no one complained , took action? female lead has powerful parents who could intervene , if not , so many students would have lost their future, delayed studies, lose interest in their specialization - all for one person's greed and ambition..scary!

The only one deserve of sympathy is FL...
