Title Miss the Dragon Spoiler
His motive is not great but you know Fate deity is not that powerful, he just is like a heavenly record keeper…
Yes I agree, its not brought out as well as it could have been but he came across as envious and malcontented within the first few episodes so I had him pinpointed as the villain early on. I do think it is pretty cool how he basically manipulated the entire series of Liu Ying's reincarnations so that her soul would be properly "seasoned" by the powerful aura of the dragon king's protection. I guess they wanted it to be kind of a "twist" or a surprise and it just didn't pop out.

Title Miss the Dragon Spoiler
Dude wtf is with that ending... all that suffering for 3 lifetimes and their ending was that?! Were they being…
It wasn't that bad because the FL is ultimately a mortal, she would have never been able to have more than a lifetime with dragon king anyway without going through the same reincarnation process again. This way, they are both guarding the heaven's net together for all eternity. They didn't get sucked into the mirror like most people think - that is just an artefact that Xie Qianxun uses to monitor the skies.
There is apparently an easter egg (eye roll) that shows she gets reincarnated into a fifth life where they are together. I didn't bother to hunt it down to watch it (probably behind a pay wall) bc I think the ending as is is fine as is rather than an never ending cycle.

Title Miss the Dragon Spoiler
I joked some time ago that there will be no explanation why Mingge Xingjun turns evil, but looks like it was not…
His motive is not great but you know Fate deity is not that powerful, he just is like a heavenly record keeper that is privy to a lot of secrets by virtue of his role. But he has to toady to all the other deities and has no real power, that's why he always covets powerful artefacts and is willing to trade them for secrets. And all beings are always trying to cultivate to advance themselves. He was probably always envious of Dragon King's awesome power and when he stumbled upon how special Liu Ying's soul is, he seized the opportunity to use it to make himself more powerful than maybe even Jade Emperor.

How is the rating calculated in MDL? If it's douban, it's based on the users.
It is incredibly static. Like the thing doesn't move ever unless its a glitch. The fact that 2x the no of people have voted since we were watching when airing and the rating does not change. It either says most people are crowd followers, they just rate it close to the existing rating. Or there is something dodgy about it.

Yes, it was almost a foregone conclusion he was a fake bc otherwise, he would have a legit claim to the throne.…
I am actually currently watching it, I think it could tide you over! Its by the Joy of Life writer actually.

Thank you for your kind words. If you keep reading, I will keep writing. And I hope you enjoy Ancient Detective, its a really excellent mystery. :)

Title The Imperial Coroner Spoiler
Yes, it was almost a foregone conclusion he was a fake bc otherwise, he would have a legit claim to the throne.…
Yes, especially when as son of the previous emperor, the real Duke Chang would have a superior claim to the throne.
Why don't you check out Young Bloods if you haven't watched it yet. Its similar ensemble team of spies. And Su Xiao Tong plays an uncannily similar character and is paired up with another uncannily similar character to Prince An but they are the second couple. Its a very good show, at least comparable if not better than this.

Title The Rebel
Having seen the first 2 episodes, this drama is fairly easy to understand. I usually have trouble understanding…
It always cracks me up that as a Chinese production CCP = good guys and Kuomintang = bad guys. If it were Taiwanese production, then just flip it.

Finally WOH/SHL 2 days concert has their own page in douban and the rating is 9.5https://movie.douban.com/subject/35430794/Wow!!I…
Ii think what is special about the WOH cast is you can tell how much they loved the production and each other. I also think shooting a drama on a shoestring budget during a global pandemic is kind of an extra kind of bonding, almost found family like experience. The concert was both like a victory and farewell party.

Title The Rebel
It looks right for the raws but not sure if the subs will be able to keep up.
I watched the first 6. Its definitely not crappy and in general its well written and well acted. It appears like there may be a pretty big logic hole but it could go away when more is revealed later. And since outside of this the writing overall doesn't look sloppy, I am willing to go with it for now and just assume its not a logic flaw for now.

I hope for ZZH Retro Detective goes well. But for years I have watched the industry try to recapture that wild whacky side splitting craziness of Aces Goes Places with Detective Chinatown the most successful so far but still a far cry away from the original. I am not quite convinced Retro Detective is gonna be able to do it either but it still could be quite successful for him.

Is the episode timer correct? It says episode 7 will air tomorrow already.

Oh I don't mind even if he is going for traffic. At his age and while he is hot, it is the smart thing to do and he should. I really like him but I don't have to want to watch everything he is in.

I am looking forward to Anle as well but I feel its going to be a long way off.

I am not excited any of the roles discussed in the article to be honest. I don't think they are going to elevate either actor. ZZH is working with Zhao Wei now and I am sure he will pick his projects carefully going forward so let's wait and see what shakes out. Unlike Gong Jun, he has already done his fair share of the very popular historical romances so it seems he may be keen on going down a different path.

As for Gong Jun, he is rumored to be cast in Legend of Anle with Dilraba no? If that comes through, it will be huge for him. And I think he is also being paired up with Li Yitong on something else, which also could also be great for him. I have never liked Zhang Huiwen, she doesn't connect with any of her male leads so please lets not judge him if Flaming Hearts goes down in flames.
