I know the ending is somewhat a happy one. But i wasn't satisfied with such ending. TTEOTM ending is somewhat similar to Immortal Samsara's ending. Toi sad, too heartbreaking.
Everyone should read your review! You kept up with the updates which I hope those who are turned off by the negative…
I hope both our reviews help people disregard the negative comments and reviews! I've rewatched the last six episodes on Youku already. And my translation were almost in line with the subtitles. Loved all 40 episodes through and through! Peirong are the cutest couple!
One of the most detailed review ever. You hit the spot with this review. You analyzed how their lives was in the past, how they met each other in the present, how their relationship progressed, and how the developed unwavering trust in each other. It's a pity, really a pity, that some are just hellbent on criticizing such a "masterpiece". And yes, TPR is indeed a drama of second chances. Thanks for painstakingly writing such a stellar review!
Excellent review! Thank you for the time and effort you put into this. Your review is insightful as needed for…
Glad you loved it. Yes, the characters have depth, some sees it, but are just ignoring it. Their chemistry is natural, unique, electrifying, and off the charts. There's this satisfaction I get watching our Peirong together, they are indeed the loveliest couple ever!! Mai Mai and Ling He makes the perfect pair!
Yes, the ending was so satisfying. After all, The Double that some compared this drama to, also had an ending that's somewhat similar. Shen Yu Rong also commited suicide, didn't he? I don't get where all their hatred is coming from. I'll be watching the express episodes on Youku soon, since the subtitles for the one I watched previously was off, but glad I understand Mandarin to some extent. Will rewatch on Youku to have a better understanding of this "masterpiece".
The second male lead keeps saying "I must protect His Highness" and his affectionate lines are awkward and inexplicable.
Sure, it'd have been nice if the screenwriter followed the novel. But there'd always be changes in drama, just like TD, the novel also wasn't entirely followed, was it?
It's should happy ending if they end when they were together just like Who rules the world when the male lead…
You're right. The drama should have ended where Tuoba Yun ascended the throne with Weiyoung as his empress. Also, with their few months of living in harmony together. The drama would have been perfect. But they just had to proceed up until the ML's death. Such heartbreak. If the ML hadn't died, even if he had four years left to live, as long as, just as long as, he didn't die in the end, I'd have given this a full 10. But he died in the end, hence, I gave it a 9!
Yes, some seem to have forgotten how Shen Yu Rong got a lot of screentime in TD. I remember Duke Su wasn't in…
Yes. Also, in the double, Shen Yu Rong also commited suicide. Commiting suicide seems to be the norms for villains in historical dramas. To be honest, I still can't figure out, whom between Duke Su and Shen Yu Rong had more screentime.
I couldn’t finish watching it, I feel very irritated. The FL is unpleasant and selfish. ML ... and which one…
How can you say the FL is unpleasant and selfish? She's a princess who was raised to choose power as "love is considered nothing in front of power", that's the way of the imperial family. So, for that kind of bring up, it takes time to change. In my opinion, she's someone who finds it hard to trust other people, also, she's quite reserved.
The plot seemed to move on its own. No one really had anything to do with when, why or how. Few examples: Qin…
Yes, some answers are just not given to watchers. In the double, till the end, we never knew XFF's age, how the emperor took consort Li as his concubine, Consort Li's age. The audience just had to guessed it.
I didn't want to ....but still I'd say this as I was holding it in since the beginning of the drama. The director…
Yes, some seem to have forgotten how Shen Yu Rong got a lot of screentime in TD. I remember Duke Su wasn't in an episode, but Shen Yu Rong was. Shen Yu Rong even got a lot more screentime than the SML (Ye Shi Je). But it seems people have forgotten about that. In most dramas, it's normal for villains to get some screentime, people are just not resonating with such facts.
