battleaxe

while I don't have a problem with the first half of the drama, I agree with the general sentiment that the last 10 episodes have a tighter narrative and a crisper pace. maybe they switched writers? it happens
also I totally would not mind seeing the leads together in a romance drama in the future. from the glimpses they've shown us? they have potential

'lightning' should be added to the cast bc girl why are you everywhere

there are these little scenes that show xueman being startled bc the constables and people in general are willing to cooperate with bei ming and not her and 🤣 I hope she figures out someday that its simply bc she's unpleasant (I like her aggy-ness btw) while he's nice.

ohh he's being literally rehabilitated! that's prison pr

peacock finally admits his love and admiration for beiming!🥰😂that prison is doing wonders for him, it's even making him more likable! he should stay there for some time yet.

every new character they bring on is so interesting, and they always manage to do it at the point just when the main narrative is about to get stale

lol I just realized that xue man is totally a nepo baby, and that entire constabulary is her parent. still I love watching her fall upwards, its giving womeninmaledominatedfields

can't believe she was making moves on her sister's man. it really do be the quiet ones! hm hm hm God help us. I like her less now
she and 2ml deserve each other

they do seem to have a stronger connection. but I adore her scenes with shi yao more

I never thought I could like a timid and unassuming fl but here we are, she is lovely!
also I'm totally eating up the main cp dynamic, she's genuinely terrified of him while he's secretly in love with her, then there's the 2ml who will do anything to have her, and claw his way out of the shadows (rooting for him btw!)

yes the first 5 ish eps i've seen so far are good. can't recommend anything beyond that bc its a mini drama and you never know what foolishness is hiding just around the corner

ep 22- congratulations to peacock for finally crafting a plan that worked! delay is not denial guys

I loved the wire work in ep 20 it was immaculate. ooh watching characters effortlessly float around does something really nice to my mind 😌

awesome! thank you friend!❤🤎

anyway chile let me go see if I can find the ost, bc it really banged and doesn't deserve to get dragged down with everything else

lol true

Du Yu Ming the old bug actor is so good, I completely forgot all about his terrifying characters in jol, sword snow stride, etc. i nearly screamed when I remembered🥲🤭

aww I didn't think I was gonna like huo dairong but coroner feng was obsessed so I waited, and well I adore her now!

ep 15 - its really hard to be on the side of the people who died bc like y'all are getting killed for a reason, and its giving there's a really good reason. its like Ripe Town when all those people were getting killed and the vibe was all 👀 but what did y'all do

yes exactly that's the word i'm looking for. she's empowered
