Sweet and often humorous
Okay, the story has a predictable sort of story to it, but I have enjoyed almost everything about it. Sets are lovely, and the male players have good costumes (which is mainly how I got into Chinese Historical dramas).I laugh a lot, and have gotten quite touched by the male lead's family, and their honest love of each other.... and I enjoy the fantastical, as... after all? Our young man is in a game, for goodnesssakes.
So: Within this predictable sorta tale, there is a sweetness and a few surprises!
I'm a big fan of Ni Hong Jie. Her acting feels so sincere.

I would love to know who the art director was for this series. I would watch all their work
I find this series well told, well acted. The sets, costumes, make-up helped tell the story beautifully. Even the lighting is worth mentioning. Great colors. Inspiring.Hmmm.. I am required to write more. So few people I know want me to blather about anything! I'm honored!
Editing seems nice too. The tale has a good clip, never spending and overly tedious amount of time on any points, but still guiding us on where to look and think about what's going on.
