If I am going to keep all the characters: The fight flashback between Liu Yan and Tang Lici at the beginning of…
Tang Lici protecting her, before the underwater scene! That was absolute gold. My heart twisted for poor ZJC when he blew out the candle, because I could see what was coming. She was very brave.
It is great that the likes of Chi Yun, Shen Langhun and Shui Duopo contributed to helping Tang Lici to open up more and also lead to such exchanges with ZCJ. Overall for screentime plus emotional exchanges, ZCJ would be FL but to me, there is only one lead for this drama as per the original details: Luo Yunxi.
And he is surrounded by a supporting cast that mostly enables this drama to be what it is :)
~*~*~*~
Supposed to be 12 episodes in total while shooting is ongoing in Chengdu, although I am hoping for 16 episodes. Wu Jinyan is going to be sassy and kickass! Aero is going to be tangled in a cat-and-mouse game with her. Less than 10 minutes after the details for《重生之门·源起》were announced on Weibo, I was making the edits for submission on MDL. My edits have been approved very quickly (I'm not new to edits on MDL) but oddly enough, no credit to me. Checking that out. Will have to painstakingly add the screenwriters and other crew to MDL, before I can even add them to the drama D:
(I was excited about the new first season of Time Raiders from the DmBJ series because of the author's input this time, but Francis Ng and Cao Lei are under-utilised D: so I hope in the second season, they will have more scenes because their acting is awesome.)
Waiting forever for 《秋雪漫过的冬天》starring Mark Chao and Zhang Zifeng, which is the C-drama remake of the K-drama hit "My Mister". The extent of micro-emoting for this drama is extensively heavy and varied, and these two are perfect for their roles.
Hats off to Azure! Your writing on SLY is so insightful that, in my opinion, the C audience as well as the producer…
Patitoruani on Reddit is TaraVerde on MDL here. I've been promoting their review from more than 12 days ago, then it was accidentally deleted, hence I promoted their rewritten review here: https://kisskh.at/755725-shui-long-yin#comment-24390164
Omg! Everyone is so stupid! Im super angry! What sword Alliance? All fakers and hypocrite! Esp master Pu Zhu who…
Like his mother, Tang Lici was pure-hearted and just too kind. But it is such kindness that enabled this "reset" to happen. Tang Lici went against destiny and rewrote his fate. That's amazing. I am half-torn between watching Liu Yan talk to Tang Lici one final time (because that was just too beautiful) versus "I don't want to use a towel again..." XD
Frankly, I am very cheesed off that Chi Yun died due to Bai Suche. It was totally unnecessary, but that's because she was in the drama.

Puzhu's idea of dealing with the situation was to take over the leadership position of Tianjing Pavilion due to his deceased master, which necessitated withdrawing from the secular world. It was only because of Master Shao's death plus Zhong Chunji being Princess Lang Ya enabling the Imperial Court to once again meddle in the affairs of the pugilistic world, that Puzhu had reason to enter the secular world including affairs of the pugilistic world, but under greater restraints given his new position as sect leader.
I compiled SLY many achievements during airing on discussion so it does not get lost. https://kisskh.at/discussions/755725-shui-long-yin/146888-shui-long-yin-whispers-of-fate-3weeks-post-svip-finale-achievements
Thank you so much, Data Shifu! I really appreciate how detailed you have been on this subject, throughout the airing of this drama! ꉂ(˵˃ ᗜ ˂˵)⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

Please take @suzuko_d_law's advice and stop wasting your time on people who twist your words. The airing of the drama has ended, and the end results are conclusive to anyone who has finished watching. Those who have finished watching have been honest when answering questions from viewers, about shipping versus romance.
The producers mentioned this was heroism-focused, way before the drama aired. The end results match those claims.
Trolls who use multiple sockpuppets to attack other viewers plus actresses are despicable. Having been on the receiving end of illogical infantile nonsense from the one you are addressing, I would advise you to allow such people with mental health issues to go and seek help.

Your frustration is understandable, BTW. As for Zhong Chunji, wait until episode 40.
They crammed too much into four episodes when it needed an extra episode. And on top of that, would have helped if Xifang Tao's past had been shown very quickly as a flashback, of what she went through before being raised by Gui Mudan all these years.
It's not about redeeming her, but to give context to why she is what she is, and also what she does in episode 40.
Puzhu is not the smartest, and he is like Tang Lici in this regard: Always giving chances to people whom many would have given up on by now, such as Liu Yan and Xifang Tao.
If I am going to keep all the characters: The fight flashback between Liu Yan and Tang Lici at the beginning of…
Bai Suche is the blink-and-miss love interest of Chi Yun who is a spy for Tang Lici inside Fengliu Dian. If she wasn't in the story, Chi Yun wouldn't have to die for her.
Ahahahaha, Ai Mi is a gem as Shui Duopo. Pretty sure LYX fans noticed she could hold her own against him. She is the only female character that Tang Lici lets his guard down with, other than his mother.
So speaking of character OSTs, my favourite ones are Liu Yan's and Xi Fang Tao's songs.Aside from these, I really…
I think you're one of the few on this page who also appreciates Xifang Tao in a positive manner. She really had it tough, and to be brought up by Gui Mudan... I wanted her backstory to at least be shown in a short flashback.
I enjoy Gui Mudan's character song the most. But for overall songs, I like the OP song the most because it makes…
Sorry about the delay in reply. Notification inundation + MDL lag = ?!
I play the guzheng and piano, which refines being able to identify pitch amongst other things. And I am aurally picky.
Since your voice comes across as roguish and tom-boyish with a feminine undertone for the cover, being able to emphasise the enunciation for certain lines and words, and having more of a pause between certain lines would definitely help. If you could redo that song again as a cover, I think it would be great! Do you need a song example?
You can always add your thoughts for changes to my thread, so others can read. There's no right or wrong, and it is nice to be able to share views.
[ One thing is I wished they hadn't given the drama a license b4 the 40 ep limit ban was lifted so we could've possibly gotten more eps to flesh out some things.] - Absolutely.
SLY does have its flaws, just like everything has. Nothing is perfect and it’s the best drama I have seen in…
SLY is definitely the best drama over the past 30 years, should one look in the xuanhuan/xianxia category. Anyone with Chinese heritage should be proud of such a groundbreaking work of art. I know I am :D
At least now the producers know for certain you don't need "romance" to make such a drama a success where LYX is concerned, given the interactions for this drama between Tang Lici and A-Shui that had non-romance viewers satisfied and romance lovers disappointed. The producers did say much earlier on before the drama aired, that this drama is heroism-focused. And an official trailer released in April 2024 including one scene between A-Shui and Tang Lici which is Tang Lici being non-responsive pretty much set the tone.
Since the drama has finished airing, people should honestly promote the drama for its amazing strengths and beauty on so many fronts.
What do you mean bid farewell 😏 ?You can share whatever thoughts or feelings you have at the moment whenever…
SLY is one for the ages.
It is one drama I will definitely rewatch several times.
And I look forward to your review! Reading your thread about Worldview and Timelines is astonishingly deep and detailed. It's very wonderful and enjoyable to find someone so dedicated to a masterpiece that is incredibly- detailed and complex. I am glad to know you, kwanto, Levi_Nyein, LoveDemonGodTTJ and others on this page :)
Hello Xiang, thank you for taking the time to write this message. My review was based solely on the first episode,…
"Heroes Next Door" is a currently-airing 10-episodes k-drama that my friends are enjoying (no romance) for multiple aspects, which maybe you can check out.
I was conversing with another viewer about costume dramas utilising parody and comedy, and they gave some recs:
I appreciate your review for ADwaD. I watched almost ten episodes which I did enjoy, and then paused it because life was being difficult and I wasn't in the mood to continue. And then funnily enough, I found myself wondering yesterday if I should restart this.
And so, scrolling through the review section, I found your review. Much appreciated for your efforts to share such an evaluation.

More than 4 days ago, I said if there was a female lead, it goes to ZCJ due to screentime: https://kisskh.at/755725-shui-long-yin#comment-24390200
