I Have So Many Things To Say.....

Fated Hearts started with some real good promises. A warrior prince got wounded by the arrow of his mortal enemy and when he got his consciousness, he eventually found out the woman that almost killed him is somehow got into a worst position than him,injured, lost her abilty to fight and also her memory is gone. I was sitted cause it was a really interesting way to start.

As the story progressed, the bond between the two strengthened....it was not forced,there wasn’t anything clingy, it was mutual,mature and was really enjoyable to see.

But.....everything started to fall apart in the midway when lots of new characters were introduced.Their motives,actions, consequences..many things didn’t make sense. The story introduced Storm sect or something when Susha Prince almost died and the prison where FL and her brothers were tortured when they were child..... that added nothing to the story. The main couple got sided and the side stories took the main plot.


Prince of Susha and Fu Yi Xiao:
CZY is a really good actor he again proved that. A child who lost his mother in front of his eyes and later became the warrior prince who wants to avenge his mother who later found comfort and love in a enemy... Everything was good.

Li qin as Fu YiXiao was terrific.The cold hearted general who go betrayed by someone she trusted the most and later again found her strength... Loved her character arc. She was always strong willed,cautious of her surrounding, smart. The bond between these two clicked cause they trusted each other and communicated which i loved the most. Till the end,they fought beside each other,protected as shield like real power couple.

Princess of Susha and Emperor Xia ZingYan: This is where my headache started. Still trying to find a reason why they made their love story in such a bizzar way. Princess Susha got on my nerves so many times cause of her irresponsible decisions and tantrums.... When her brother assured her she doesn’t have to marry, she still did when Xia Zingshi clealrly told her he's not interested in her. When her family tried to protect her, she eloped with her husband and later got betrayed by him. After that so many things happened, she divorced her husband and got with that douchbag of an emperror Xia Zingyan only for her own benefit,used him for everything .... and lastly when the emperor actually fell for her,she was like nah I'm leaving!!!!
Xia ZingYan as an Emperror was nothing but a menace. A womanizer,good for nothing. But later when they revealed how much he cared for princess of susha and the way he was always ready to be used by her and the reason behind it.... Can't believe I was actually feeling bad for him. They could become a good couple if the story-writer was not in the mood for killing every character. If only the princess stopped throwing tantrums in everything, she probably could get a family with someone that loves her and build a whole empire with him.

Also...what was Feng Suige thinking while making his sister the empress??????She didn’t take a single good decision in the whole series... She is impulsive,never thinks about whats good for everyone,often acts as a childish brat....she is the worst choice to be an empress.

Emperor and Empress of Susha:
Well... I find the emperor a selfish father who never understood his own child. Idk how could he think after everything the prince went through,he would still agree to follow the same path as his father. Boy saw his mother dying in front of his eyes and his father did nothing. Even in the end time of his life,he just sat there,doing nothing.
The Empress was just a beneficiary of the whole situation. I felt like she actually cared about the Emperor but lost her path while trying to secure the future of herself and her son. And that younger prince of susha became victim of this power battle. But he was still a breath of fresh air,he took such a mature decision at such a young age after so many traumatic incidents.

Murong Family :
Another piece of headache. Even if i sympathise with Murong son for his hatred towards the imperial family.... Never understood how someone like Papa Murong who fought and sacrificed for the imperial family his whole life,was a man of honor and moral.... How can he suddenly become a dark character overnight?? What his son did,deserved punishment,but still the emperor already pardoned him. Idk what he thought,why he thought.

Xia Zingshi:
The biggest culprit I guess. His obsession with Fu Yixiao was the reason of his doom. Yeah he was mistreated,abused, neglected..... But still couldn’t sympathise with him,sorry.


The set designs and costumes were gorgeous. Fight scenes were done good. There wasn’t many ost's i guess,only two or three.

Overall it was a good one time watch drama. I enjoyed many parts but also wanted to skip many,Those who want to watch a badass pretty couple will definitely enjoy it.
