Huai’an is an embodiment of a vast array of emotions and the way he corrupts others is astounding. In him you can find love, hate, more hate, anger, lots of anger, desperation (to not die too early), patriotism, loyalty, friendship, sadness, longing to both live and to die. His ability to love his family and friends despite the hate he abhors shows how deeply he cares. This tells it all. Not dead, yet not alive.
Really job well done to the scriptwriters, the director and the actors. Everyone is superb. The ending really does not matter. Their delivery and interwoven-ness of the subplots and characters is a new first for me. I really had gotten tired of the cliche subplots and twists. Where is the fun in knowing what to expect? The mental gymnastics this series gives is just so thrilling.

Yayyyyy!!! Heat index 10.000! 🔥🥳🎉👏🏻😘😍Thanks to Cheng Yi's fans who are always so dedicated…
This drama broke the heat index in the best way. It wasn't because of heavy promotion or traffic, but purely because of its outstanding quality and amazing acting. So well deserved🔥🎉🥳🥳 Congratulations Cheng Yi and the all team 🥳🎉
It's already midnight here but I'm rewatching episodes 19-20. Hands-down this series is one of the best series of 2025. Cheng yi's performance is a masterclass.
When Huai An said he'd get revenge by all means, that includes his life as well.. I'm prepared for what's to come..…
I do not think I can ever accept a sad ending but for this drama, I cannot see the other way out, considering how the last villain has as strong mind as Huaian

The Vendetta of An has such high quality writing not only for its plots and twists but for how it tells the story…
When Huai An said he'd get revenge by all means, that includes his life as well.. I'm prepared for what's to come.. I think I am... :'3 Not only young actors & actresses, but the veteran actors played their roles so well!! I'm in awe of their performances! ✨✨✨
The Vendetta of An has such high quality writing not only for its plots and twists but for how it tells the story of the characters, not as mere protagonists or villains, but their feelings as human being. This drama was not shy in showing an unhinged ML, whereas other dramas chose to highlight the ML as always righteous. Xie Huaian manipulated others (and even viewers) with his schemes, threw himself into danger that might end his life, and used even his angst and cry to deceive his enemy. The villain had killed so many but was vulnerable thus allowing his loneliness took the best of him. Combination of very well written script and great actors truly makes this drama outstanding.
I am so glad that Cheng Yi will end this 'tiresome' 2025 with a high quality, highly accepted drama ❣️
This is a literal case of “鹬蚌相争，渔翁得利”. XHA is so busy with plotting to kill YHS, he wouldn’t see this coming and as YHS said XHA biggest weakness is that he is too fixated on revenge and missing crucial background happening. So we have the final arc, the next 8 ep on how is XHA going to save Chang An. No dull moments.

I love the drama but there are to many characters. it is hard for me to keep up sometimes.
Which is why this is the first drama in a long time that I rewind backward then fast forward because every characters have their background and each death is meaningful in a way if you watch it slowly.
1. Wuyang is a formidable general, even the 400 men YFS/Tiemo sent to kill him failed. His army is still around. Gu Yu by comparison was well intentioned but not that smart and he can't fight. 2. The 4 military commanders are still intact and are unlikely to defect. 3. Hopefully YZ is still alive. And Shen Xiaoqing. 4. Zhou Mo and the rest of the Huainan buddies should be able to come out of hiding now that YFS is gone. 5. Zhang Sheng and possibly others loyal to his father are still at Cangshuichuan. 6. Qingyi and his mom 7. Last but not least, the axe murderer deposed emperor.
Ep 19 & 20 were EPIC. Words can't even begin to explain all the emotions I felt while watching it, from shock to sadness to wow to more shock. My heart was pounding the entire time. Plot twist after plot twist after plot twist in just 2 episodes. This drama delivers on all front. TVOA has officially becomes my favorite drama this year.
