At this point South Mountain Hunters are more monks than hunters 😅 their rituals are far more elaborate than…
Looool so true. Whereas in the last 2 decades the fiends established their human identities and overtook a whole pharma supply chain. They've worked so much harder for their own success it almost makes me wanna root for them instead 😂
Wait is the younger sister actually Yan Tuo's younger sister or not? They act like real siblings but he told the FL his sister is still missing..? Feel like I missed a line or two about their backgrounds
Saved up the last few episodes so I could finish it in one shot. There are definite flaws especially with the pacing/editing in the second half, but 7.5 is unwarranted
If you're like me - loves historical dramas for the action, visuals and suspension of disbelief, but gets impatient at romance scenes - this is a solid watch where the plot goes quick, the fight choreo is well done, and we get interesting fleshed-out side characters.
As someone who read the novel in Chinese couple years back, I'd say this is a fair adaptation of key plot points from the book to broadcast TV requirements.
Will probably write a full review once I gather my thoughts
It would honestly be a really good, but dark series. I'd totally be for it. But his role in Tokyo Vice is sort…
Would you have any other recs for his other shows? Doesn't have to be a similar sort of character. His portrayal of Matsuda really caught my eye despite his short total appearance time
The actor's portrayal of the yakuza boss character feels very natural and nuanced. A real pity he's only going to be around for a few episodes (per the usual Taxi Driver format) bc his acting chops could definitely flesh out a full 16-episode drama villain. Liking this season so far! Need to revisit S1 and 2 while I wait out the remaining episodes T_T
a silly lighthearted show perfect for playing in the background while i paint my nails. a show i have zero expectations for, or attachments to, and that's ok.
So a few people have been complaining about the FL stepping up and acting like she’s a leader of the family…
Yeap she's formally the First Madam of the Wei family. It's not translated in the English subs but all the other wives/madams also call her 大姐姐/big sister so it's also implied that she's also older in age
