Ep. 26 and 27 was mediocre but I'm still in disbelief over the Empress dowagers behavior. I don't know if I misunderstood…
I had the same problem with Di Shengtian and when I asked the question somewhere further down, someone explained that she had left (or was made to leave) the empire because the previous emperor had the hots for her and thus she escaped the extermination of her clan.
Overall, Destined probably has a better production and writing (even though there were also some cringe-worthy…
Same here - I'm always looking forward to new episodes for this one, whereas for the other dramas I can very easily not watch all available episodes.😁 It must be that I'm addicted to bathing scenes...😂😂😂
I finished Destined and I’m thinking of starting this . Is it that good as well ? I liked her drama Long ballad…
Overall, Destined probably has a better production and writing (even though there were also some cringe-worthy plot turns and scenes). The acting here is on equal level with Destined, I would say and the story really is captivating. I know I rant a lot about the ridiculous writing etc., but comparing LoA with better produced recent dramas that I'm also watching (like Destined or Mysterious Lotus Casebook) I still find it more compelling despite all its flaws.
Yes, what would do without the novel readers to help us understand this drama? I think the production team (who did such a lousy job) should give them half their salary!
Given that there's a wedding emoji at episode 39, I think they will patch it up but probably not until HY falls…
They might even come back trying to convince everyone that they are someone completely different without bothering to wear a mask or change their clothes and hairstyle 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hopefully LoA will spare us such a suspension of disbelief....
Well, she has been robbed. This is based on a female-centric novel that has her in almost every scene. In the…
I doubt that this is what will happen. The ML is the lead actor so it would be unusual not to have him around in all the episodes. This is the reason why I was questioning the choice to turn the ML into the lead rather than the FL who has a continuous presence in the story. I would assume that they probably start the story at the point when the ML becomes more involved and then tell the part of the story before that in a series of flashbacks.
I really love how the story is going finally. I don't know why there many people saying that the plot is really…
It's not so much the plot that is bad but the way it is presented and (not) driven forward. You call it a well-planned revenge plot, but we didn't really get see anyone being busy planning/organising any of this. It must have been the elves who did it while everyone else sat around chatting and drinking. It would have been so much more compelling to show the viewers some bits and pieces here and there to intrigue them and then let it all come together in the big scene during the birthday banquet.
Any LMX fans here? Loved his character when I read parts of the novel, kinda wish they kept him the same but still…
I didn't read the novel (yet) but in the drama he is my favourite character. He is the only one who has realised that you cannot make an omlette without breaking some eggs.
People think that Crown Prince is dumb but they are showing their stupidity. We are seeing story from Anle's point…
It's not that he's stupid, but he is so beige! How can he ask the women who he supposedly loves to deny her identity forever and drop her life's purpose just for the sake of not stirring the waters. That just shows he doesn't know her at all!
I came here so frustrated, now Im relieved. Other viewers feeling the same. The character of HY is probably the…
I understand your disappointment with the HY character in the drama. I also find him rather 'meh'. It would have been good to show some more of his inner struggle between supporting Anle and being loyal to his family. Him testing her to make sure she has solid evidence was ok, but the fact that he wants her to live on as Anle is just ludicrous. I mean he knows her character (and presumable loves her for it) so how could he ask her to stop being who she is just for the sake of keeping everything quiet. The writing really puts him in a very bad light.
