Amanda L

I actually hate TMOPB supporting casts. They're not doing anything for me, I do not understand some of the actors and actresses appeals. Don’t send hate my way, just my honest opinion.

It's only a drama lol, I know how you feel, I'm the same. The things that both Jiu Chen and Ling Xi did for each other unconditionally are what really killing me. My heart just can't take it. I’m watching behind the scenes videos to lightening up the moods.

It's a female actress that play the role of a male to female transition.

I just want to share this. I'm excited to see the upcoming episodes.

I can’t express how much I love this series, such a wholesome drama. I just really love the whole casts.

I also really hope that they keep up with the pacing and the consistency of all characters.

@Jen If there're certain parts that you need clarification, I can help you with them. I don't fully understand all of the micro detail but I do get the gist of what's happening.

Most of his dialogs are through his expressions. Subtlety acting, this is not a series that you can do other things while watch it.

Jiu Chen doesn’t have a lot of dialog so you have to pay attention to his expression. Some of his facial expressions when it comes to Ling Xi are hilarious. Both of them are very comedic at time.

I don't understand the negative reactions either. What I noticed is those people either like the series because of the 2 leads or just downright hate it because of them. I think this series is so much better than TMOPB, mainly because I hate the dragged out love triangle in TMOPB.

There's a character chart on this website.

She's the daughter of the princess (the one with the marking on the face). They're another clan (San Ling) and not related to the demon king. They just happen to wear black and has black marking. Before the demon king got sealed up, he left a part of his spirit in ling xi.

I don’t see her character the way you do. So far I think Victoria did a very good job conveying the character feeling moreso than Huang JingYu. While her character is insecure but she didn’t play it as an annoyance or pushover so I’m okay with it.
On the other hand, JingYu couldn’t bring out the emotional depths of yearning and the undying love that I am supposed to feel on screen at all.
I also would like to throw in a disclaimer that I’m not a fan of Victoria or JingYu but just someone rendering a neutral view points.

I think it's okay Victoria's character starting out weak and improve over the course of the series.

She is dealing with a lot of insecurity so it makes sense for her character to be that way. With her family being poorer than her friends, and she’s not that smart as her friends. They both are getting their PHD or something. I feel like most of the time she doesn’t want to be a bothersome to other people. It probably easier for her to suck it up than speak up.

I assume clip 03 is the restaurant one?
If it is, it's damn funny. The confuse looks on the 2 women.
Thank you for sharing this information. I'm looking forward to more clips.

You should give it a chance. It's very addictive. Very interesting plot line. Acting wasn't bad. I'm really interest in seeing the back story like most people in here.
Not to mention the fan service of shirtless Huang Jing Yu if it's your thing hahaha

While everyone here are all about the 2nd male lead, I'm more drawn to the main male lead. With how his character is written, it should be for a secondary character rather than for a main lead. But there’s a certain earnest on the actor part that I found to be very endearing. With so many series that feature confident man as the main lead, it refreshing to see a man that’s on tippy toes and uncertain what he should do or what to say when it comes to the person he’s falling in love with. And no his voice doesn’t bother me.
But for some unknown reason, I kept on wondering if the 2nd lead is up to something eventhough he is not. He seems to be too perfect and I feel like he’s just adding more pressure to the female lead than what she’s already experience.
Can we talk about the actress that plays Maya Airi; she needs to stop bulging her eyes. It doesn’t add anything to her “villainess” but creeping me out.

I think you should care about how characters “are supposed to be” especially if it’s an adaption. They have to stick to the source material if they’re adaption. Don’t call something adapted from but deviate so much from the source material. That’s deceiving. And if it’s original work then they can’t use the name, premise of an established source and call it their own, it’s call plagiarism.
Like CandraDee said, Hana Nochi Hare is not about Tsukushi & Tsukasa. Even the mangaka manages to move past their story and came up Hana Nochi Hare so I think you should watch this as it intended.
There’s also a thing call fan-fiction where you can write whatever storyline you want based on your favorite HanaDan couple. Food for thought.

Very good 1st and 2nd episodes, I enjoy it tremendously.
