Not all laughs.
April 2026
I so enjoyed this fantasy/Xanxia C-drama. It has humour, sarcasm, action and subtle romance.
There is also tragedy, and I cried on more than one occasion.
Demons come in all forms, and this story proves that, as is so often the case, it's the human looking ones that need worrying about the most!
Expect signature beautiful sets, costumes and actors (m&f).
A great band of characters (who don't all want to be together at all, and don't all get on), with varying abilities and very different personalities, are tasked with catching demons that have escaped the Demon Realm. They also have to fix the 'leak'!
A few eps dragged a bit, but for me, not unbearably.
One particular scene also gets revisited a bit too often, and whilst it's an important one, it did irk me a bit.
A couple of irritating support characters (again, not massively so, as covered by others), and I found Wen Xiao a bit 'wet' at times.
Still, overall it's another that's recommended and one I really enjoyed.
Note: Not that strong on romance, incase it's your thing.
