I’m intrigued...but I’m a stickler for happy endings. Anyone know about this one yet?
CN dramas... usually have a bad or somewhat bittersweet ending. I personally have not finished the series yet, but I'm guessing someone will die, but a happy ending for the two leads.
They aren’t siblings. Male lead doesn’t really have a sister. He’s just playing along when female lead thought…
Ah. Thanks for clarifications I guess. I did quickly skim through the episodes to see if it would be worth saving up to binge later on so it's very likely I missed some stuff.
Where did you watch the episodes? Wasn't Lu Si's character time traveled? So that means they aren't siblings...because…
Watched on maplestage (no subs) http://maplestage.com/show/%E5%A4%A9%E9%9B%B7%E4%B8%80%E9%83%A8%E4%B9%8B%E6%98%A5%E8%8A%B1%E7%A7%8B%E6%9C%88 . Lu Si's character was time travelled, but into the body of Chun Hua, who's apparently Qiu Ye's sister (according to Qiu Ye, which isn't all that believable because he's the head of the Demon Sect.) But in the latest episodes, Chun Hua is apparently Xiao Bai's sister. It's a really awkward storyline so far.
I like it so far except for one thing. Really hope the main leads aren't actually siblings... so I can ship them (I really want to ship them, especially after seeing Prodigy healer!). Otherwise, yea, I'm not up for some juicy incest xD
Final Impressions: The first season was great, simple and easy to watch but the second one just rolled downhill. Everything I have mentioned in my first impressions still applies, except for the plot which gets messy and kinda dumb when the whole body switching thing happens. The acting of the two main leads still do the thing, but the other characters are rather cringy or fully unlikable.
Honestly, this article is lacking so much in the China category. I mean those are good, but there are better ones, especially above Naga Pearls that aren't that known. Otherwise, great list.
Correction from my previous comments: The story actually does in most part follow the original, only small details and characters have been altered. I haven't realised this since they change the "evil" sects robe colours and stuff (which confused me because they kept the colours for all other respective sects, but I guess red and black does look more evil), and thought the villain was completely different. From what I can remember though his motivations has been changed from the original plotline.
Agree with your list (but imma voice this unpopular opinion out, I never really liked Eternal Love xd , simply a bit too much romance for me in a Xianxia styled fantasy drama)
