Based on the first three episodes, the plot is pretty predictable, but it’s still a fun, lighthearted drama. It’s a perfect palate cleanser from heavier stuff, which is really working for me in contrast to Reverend Insanity.
why do you need to watch the whole drama to realize it ? she’s always gorgeous.
Well, ever since I first saw her in Parallel World I already thought that, but I only commented on Blossom because, going back to episode 18 where I left off, she gave me the same vibe as the first time I saw the protagonist of The Double.
Watching the drama again to finish it, I realize that Meng Zi Yi is among the most beautiful leading ladies I've seen in Chinese dramas, it's like seeing Wu Jin Yan in The Double again...
Jesus Christ, how this final arc of Tianqui drags on. The others were so good, and this one takes forever to finish…
In the end, I skipped the scenes from episode 35 to the end, but even so, the drama was far above average for wuxia I've seen, so an 8.5 fits very well. If the final arc had been as captivating as the rest of the drama, I don't think I would have needed to skip it (even with all the plot that happens at the end, I don't know, it seemed quite below the beginning/middle for me).
Jesus Christ, how this final arc of Tianqui drags on. The others were so good, and this one takes forever to finish and reach a conclusion. The only thing on my mind is, "I hope it ends soon."
Watching this drama is dangerous, it creates an overwhelming urge to watch TBY to better understand this one and relive the iconic scenes from TBY, which must be rewatched at least once after finishing. (The rule is clear: after a year, if you feel like it, you have to rewatch it...)
For me, the power of friendship never gets old. 😉
Hahaha, that's true, I ended up comparing this drama to The Killer's Shopping List because the atmosphere is somewhat similar (I think that might sound a little strange). I found it a bit childish, but the intention here is to be lighter than its competitors, which would be other dramas with superpowers or the same atmosphere. In the end, I think I got stressed out over a silly reason.
Another drama where one of the protagonists does something absurd and is convinced by the power of friendship. After finishing episode 5, the only thing that comes to my mind is: there were so many paths the drama could have taken, and it just goes with this one...
oh, I think it is slow *because* of the investigation?I actually believe the issue here is a lack of build up.…
It's very likely that's the case. I finished episode 12, but I'm going to wait for the drama to finish and see some reviews. This is the type of drama I would finish just for the fight scenes and the cast, since neither the story nor the plot gives me any real feeling.
From what I've seen, in this case half of episode 12, I think I'm the only alien who finds the drama a bit slow for its premise (I haven't read many comments btw)? I think if the drama leaned more towards the investigative side it would make me happier, kind of like if it followed the same path as STTD, but having said that, the drama is quite good; the presence of the leaders and the action scenes alone carry the drama.
It's always funny to see kids saying things they would never say in real life, like Hong Bin did in episode 3 lol (but unfortunately there's no way to do it any other way).
"Topokki from hell" was the best line I heard in dramas this year LMAO
It had been a long time since a drama made me as emotional as episode 8 of this one did, and that's not even its focus – I can count on my fingers the dramas that have done that, and this one is one of them, even though the focus isn't on the emotional/melodramatic aspect.
This drama really captivated me in the first two episodes, I'm very eager to see the continuation, hopefully it maintains this quality. It reminds me of Gaus Electronics, it's good that they still make dramas like this.
