On Legend of the Female General Aug 16, 2025
While height, size and strength is definitely a combat advantage, I want to point out that a few of the greatest generals in Chinese history had none of those advantages:
Sun Bin (3 Kingdoms) was crippled.
Zhuge Liang (3 Kingdoms) was scrawny and skinny; he could only carry a fan on the battlefield.
Wei Qing and Huo Qubing (Han Dynasty - coming soon The Fated General) were not exceptionally big or tall they were just fleet footed cavalry experts.
Yue Fei (Song Dynasty) - was not known for his size, he was just a terrific archer.
AND drum roll - the great Cao Cao (3 Kingdoms) - recorded as short and unimposing in stature.

Avenues is a troll I stopped watching ages ago bc she is so long winded, nasty and boring. I remember she is particularly…
I totally understand why many international viewer watch her. There aren’t many good English speaking reviewers out there. I hate spoilers so I don’t really watch or read them but there are many good Chinese reviewers out there.

She is trying to make a living out of her channel but got bored with watching idol dramas long ago. She should just watch and review content she genuinely enjoys but unfortunately to make $$$ she keeps chasing the popular dramas with traffic actors which to be honest most people grow out of eventually.

When you says "forced acting" you mean Yu Shu Xin/Zhao LuSi unnatural over-the-top type of acting or you…
No not at all - I don’t watch YSX I can’t take her voice and I am bored with Lusi’s same same acting I am sorry for her struggles but I won’t miss her dramas.

I don’t know her specific likes or dislikes anymore but that sounds like her.

As someone who only watches dramas for entertainment, rather than to analyse every detail, I watched and enjoyed…
There is no right or wrong, reviews are just other people’s opinions we can individually choose to agree or disagree. And a 10.0 rating lacks credibility and objectivity in the same way a 1.0 rating does. The truth if there is such a thing is more likely to be somewhere in between.

I don’t know - I was told she was just a failed voice dubber in the industry. She carries a lot pf professional envy and resentment in her critiques.

She is particularly abusive bc she also bashes the actors with said tree. It’s fine if she wants to criticize their acting but a lot of times it devolves into very personal attracts. I blacklisted her after what she did to Zhang Zhehan and haven’t watched her since.

Lmao you just threw shade at two birds with one stone! I do think WXY is way more talented than those two but he is very young and there are parts that his acting misses the moment.

I have just seen avenue x review of the drama and her view pretty much aligns with the crowd who dropped the show…
Avenues is a troll I stopped watching ages ago bc she is so long winded, nasty and boring. I remember she is particularly bad at reviewing mystery dramas bc she is one of those that jumps to conclusions too early and misses the forest bc she bangs her head against the trees. If you insist on continuing to waste time watching her than go for all the dramas she hates - with few exceptions, she is a very reliable contrarian indicator.

Those trolls are right now probably desperately trying to pretend they liked it from the start!!!😅😆😂

It's like they ran a reverse 华山论剑 to crown the shittiest writers in China. And the 5 finalists were each…
Imagine the hubris of
anyone who thinks they can write JY’s best characters’ backstories. I would never… and this atrocity explains why.

I think even as Yesha he liked bonding with them. Those are people linked to his beloved brother. The only reason…
I still think that while it was hypocritical of Beikun of all people to be Yesha 2.0, some of his revenge is arguably still justified, maybe not on behalf of himself but for the other innocent victims. Revenge is a complicated topic, in some ways there is no right or wrong answer. And that was Zhong's most important lesson to himself and to Beiming - do the ends justify the means?

You're right. In the end, YeSha is the definition of "made to become a villain, and not born to be a villain".…
Its that old debate of nature vs nurture. As Beiming said, he would never have been able to do what Beikun did. And Beiming owns their dad's role in this whole fiasco whereas Beikun only wanted the formula for the pill.

I am willing to give it extra points for the whole speech in front of the emperor. I mean - for a Chinese drama…
Emperor best not dare to hurt him. In case that dratted pill ever resurfaces, he still carries the antidote in his blood.

I think the writer originally intended to have Zhong give Beikun to the poison master, Bei Hai's sect brother. That would have made a lot more sense and would have been in character. I say this bc Bei Hai's pill is 疾风丸 (Jífēng Wán) or Swift WIND Pill. Coroner Feng's name 风清浊 (Fēng Qīng Zhuó) can be translated as "WIND Purge" or "Cleansing WIND". But maybe they decided to make Bei Kun Tong Shuang instead bc they managed to cast an actor that looks enough like Wang Xingyue to be siblings. I don't have a huge problem with this creative choice bc it also works but it does make Bei Kun's motive seem hypocritical (his father made the pill and urged the late emperor to use it). Whereas if Tong Shuang/Yesha were just an ordinary Haiya orphan like Miao Jie, his hate would have been more understandable. Its not a fatal flaw, it just made some of the character motivations of both Zhong and TS seem a bit iffy.

General Tong's first instinct was to kill all the Haiya kids but the others stopped him. He probably always felt contempt for him and after Miao Jie, was the absolute worse person Zhong could have entrusted Beikun with.
