So nice to see a reasonable comment by someone who is not enjoying it as much.

a donghua drama mix by intention.

Its not the lighting its the 3D effect. Feel like this is an uniformed opinion. The drama so far is 🔥🔥🔥. Highly recommended though you may want to do a bit of background research before starting so you know what you are watching and in turn how to critique it. That and the first two episodes are packed with info so it may seem slow. Good luck.

agreed.

mortal to immortal journey starting as a ("realist") and moving to a xianxia. how I interpret it. no matter the classification, this is a 'new breed' of novel to donghua to drama leaving in as much detail and resolution as possible.

Understood. Thank you for the info. Appreciated.

Is this moving from a wuxia to a xianxia to a xuanhuan? Starting to wonder. They are managing to keep the wuxia (real) in the ML's fighting form and hero making though his burn them up with a straight face and walk away is more kill as needed vs battling evil. That fact that the genres are moving around at all is 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻.

BTW - the director/production team/writers call it a "realist xianxia"

Agree it is weird and sus.

This.

Its a wuxia/xianxia drama hybrid. Front end is wuxia and the further we get into it the more it morphs into a xianxia - though the hero spirit and fighting style of the ML stays true to wuxia.

Appreciate the comment. First two episodes really did feel like 16 - just had not thought of it that way.

or dailymotion

Is that romance? Nah.

tnx for the share. can not wait.

Camera work is indeed on point + the 3D motion capture animated edges.

So true! 🤣 🤣 🤣

Appreciate the share. Interesting to think of the different emotional effects of the artforms (donghua, novel, drama).

This drama is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥. Another layer of ooooy goooy gooodness w/the vfx in the fight scene presenting as nearly a hybrid between the donghua series and the drama version. The 3D motion capture animated edges resulting in sword sharp crisp lines and saturated colour with a sustained moiré effect are beyond - I fck with it like no other. Wondering how many of the same professional people are responsible for both the donghua and the drama. And, how did they decide when and where to compromise on the production? This sht would take over your working life for ever and ever.

I appreciate the imagnination comment. Had not thought of that before.

Talking about the physical production involving humans on set. More humans cleaner cable work. Not commenting on the vfx. Am enjoying the vfx - its feeling like a hybrid drama/donghua and I fck with it.
