Ep 33? 3x, the one where Ning Yi almost got derobed in court (his lineage was in question), Helian Zheng was essentially a background post for most of the scene, but he was staring at Wei Zhi. Then afterwards, he caught up with Wei Zhi and Ning Yi talking and he was hinting about marrying Zhi Wei or something to see their reaction, he was fishing basically, and got it confirmed. ZW and WZ do have the same face after all, she only gets away with it because most people never see Zhi Wei, basically everyone that do finds out.

Lol, both depressing and suffer from pacing issue. Although I guess NiF2's pacing issue show up later. (I do recommend both...) cdrama isn't that good at light romance I think, there's a couple pretty good school drama though, if you watch those. My Huckleberry Friends is my go to, but it's light on romance and more down to earth than expected. mhmm Gank Your Heart or Young Blood (idk if this has subs....)

You are not alone. I actually watched the drama for the friendship and the flashback/team solo that lot of people complain about because it adapted the parts of the other book in the series that I liked more. The adaptation is actually bit better than the book in showing female lead more, and round off some plot holes.

Complaints about promotion tactics, dissatisfaction with Ye Xiu's casting and some changes to plot that lead to slightly different characterisations (common issue with adaptations and I think it's within acceptable range). Note that drama have a bigger base than anime on douban generally speaking, and the scores shouldn't be compared across. I personally look at 7+ for cdramas and 8+ anime if I looked at douban scores.

16th is the day prequel movie hits the theatre. I'm actually starting to doubt they'll release it this month. Maybe next month.

VIP users are just 6 episodes ahead. so this week we are on ep 24.

Doesn't exist on any music platform and not listed in the credits. I honestly get the impression they didn't get permission to play the Cantonese version so they just did that.

I can't find it in Chinese either lmao. The lyrics are the same as the Cantonese version and that's the version the book refers to too. The actors were singing the Cantonese version and dubbed over. (Usually when you do a Mandarin cover, the lyrics are different because they rhyme differently. idk what's up with this drama.....this song trips me + many people up so so much)

It's the same song they play whenever Team Solo is together, Beyond's A Brighter Future 海阔天空. Mandarin cover, I'm not sure who sings the version in drama. It weirds me out so so much and I keep mentally replacing it with Cantonese version since the lyrics are the same.

While I agree it dragged towards the end, especially if you are only interested in the romance. The 40 episodes does include all three novels in the series. If you care about the friendship between team Solo, episode 36 is pretty good payoff I think. If not, then it's pretty fair.

I think Li Xian was better in Tienstin Mystic (available on netflix) and I liked Yang Zi more in Ashes of Love. I really didn't like the initial setup/characterisations for this, novel or drama.

? Sorry you got the idea I'm upset, I'm not lol. Mild confusion maybe.

Ummm. Su Cheng isn't HSY's boss, she's his business partner's wife + team leader. I don't know where you got the idea she's rich, she's not. She was broke and not doing well, and thought Xiao Ai would do better with Team Solo.

It's the lips lol. Ni Ni actually really likes Shu Qi and sometimes they interact on instagram.

It's when a lot of stations have variety shows and special programming. Even the dramas that air might get less episodes or different scheduling.

Have you seen the original Scarlet Heart? I don't think RotP is a bad start to historical, since other people have started with Nirvana in Fire, a similar serious, political focused cdrama that's not SO heavy it's difficult to get. I've known people that started with either and loved them. But it really depends on your taste.

She did really well at school so she was reasonably popular I'd think. The book was written from her POV and heavily focused on her feelings, so it's little hard to gauge. With You's Luo Zhi have been previously criticised by book fans for being too outgoing, actually. But I feel she could have been like that with Geng Geng, hell, with anyone that wasn't Sheng Huai Nan. She's pretty easygoing with other people in this drama too.

Since you watched With You, maybe My Huckleberry Friends, by the same company? Not really fluffy though and it still leans down to earth slice of life.

Put Your Head on My Shoulders and Le Coup might be more your thing if you are looking for fluff dramas.

Fairly close to the book since the author was the screenwriter and did parts of the directing after the previous director flaked out. It's a fairly down to earth series, but like the book it suffers from fair few misunderstanding and melodramatic bits. It also feels fairly anticlimatic, and lacking focus due to sheer amount of characters and their rather complicated love lines. I know it's to show different outcomes of unrequited love, but it resonated less than the book for me, there were too many bits where I just eh. Okay watch but not amazing. Luo Zhi is pretty great, even though I feel both leads could use better haircuts.

Yes.
