I immediately flew here after spotting "Cheng Yi" in the featured articles. First time seeing him, I was already dumbfounded with his acting on L&R. Him as a sickly/strict Emperor Qi Yan in "Stand By Me" and as 3 characters: Ying Yuan, Xuan Ye and Tang Zhou in "Immortal Samsara", were really memorable too.

Despite not watching all his works, I never-endingly praised him for being always active for his fans despite his busy schedules. It's about time Cheng Yi's almost 12 yrs of uphill battles & giving of outstanding performance in all his works be known to many. 📣 If diligence is a person, its Cheng Yi. It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to say that he's one of the best role model for other public figures.

Truly appreciated the creation of this article @Mon and @AwkwardPotato. Good job!

Title Till the End of the Moon Spoiler
The cover art/posters look like "Love between Fairy and Devil". I keep doing double takes thinking it's that.…
To be honest, I only see one similarity. Both posters aimed to give viewers a first hand hint about what kind of relationship the main leads would have. Only, both have different interpretations.

LBFaD poster displayed a heartwarming kiss/skinship which can also be interpreted as the warm Orchid (Sun= her Hairpin) approaching the cold DaQiang(Dead Tree=Headwear) and saving him.

On the other hand, TtEoTM Part 1 poster hints the viewers that Tan Tai Jin want to entrap Ye Xi Wu (His right hand holding her wrist and left hand, her waist). Specifically, a controlling relationship where one dominates the other in an unhealthy manner. I read the novel and these depressing interpretations were true, sadly. But don't fret, maybe the drama cut down on TTJ and YXW's "unhealthy relationship" trope. :)

Has anyone else seen this? It's only a fanmade video in weibo but it literally gave me goosebumps and now I also have butterflies in my stomach😭 , I love the creator!!! Although only little, still, some of the significant TTJ and SuSu's dialogues from the novel were dubbed! Especially that"我不爱你"/"I don't love you.." 💔 Screaming, no words. freaking out, crying, aaa now I think I won't be able to sleep today ... 😭 https://weibo.com/6087664383/L4txR0nWe?refer_flag=1001030103_

I really admired your previous article @Cryssy. And now, this too. Thank you so much for mentioning these dramas, you really increased the hype more. ❤️ The way you described Alchemy Of Souls and Immortal Samsara are simply so true. I guess this is also a cue to rewatch them haha. 😅

OMG Suzume is here,!! I mean who wouldn't be excited for another work of the legendary Makoto Shinkai's! 🥰 Then Till The End Of The Moon were also mentioned! Just thinking about Bai Lu x Yun Xi pairing makes me so weak already 😭 So excited to see these two masterpiece on screen!!

It's Wu Ming Jing's (Bai Shi Qi) birthday today, everyone🥳 🎂Just wanted to share cause I think she also deserve some of the appreciation too in EP22! I truly loved all the things she does for lu yan and the group. I'm also reallyyyy rooting for Shi Qi's and Bei Xi's happiness~~

Ep22's Lu Yan and DengDeng brought us to a really emotional ride there ... this isn't even a xian xia but it felt like it was because of all that angst 😭

I really like the pink skirt the Police Chief's daughter is wearing. Does anyone know what that style is called?
It's a high waist fishbone skirt~

Well, I'm glad YDD has someone who genuinely wants to protect her. I don't know what to think about LY though,…
If only Gu Bei Xi isn't a madman always saying "She is only mine." then I would have also added him to one of the best second male leads I know, for real. I think Yun Xi would have understood his intentions but would also get angry seeing he forgot their oath to "only protect and not harm humans".

A lot from IS is here, I really missed you guys!

Title Thousand Years for You Spoiler
Why DengDeng is really Yun Xi:

So now it was revealed that DengDeng's body is already 'buried' somewhere. Back in ep1, we heard A Xin saying that a human cannot entirely absorb a spirit's energy core without painful consequences. DengDeng was already weak at that time so it is possible that she was unable to absorb Yun Xi's spirit. So what if the opposite happened?

What if they merged DengDeng's spirit to Yun Xi's spirit instead. Thus, causing Yun Xi to transform into a human form but without any memories from 3k yrs ago. And lastly, making DengDeng now part of Yun Xi.

Additionally, DengDeng throughout the drama, talk about her memories by first mentioning, "I remember my Father told me..." or "My Brother told me...". It was like she only heard about those memories and like someone just brainwashed her into thinking those memories are hers. As for the dream world, we can see that Yun Xi was already bigger than a 3yr old so those memories may actually be hers but in the identity of DengDeng and not as Yun Xi anymore.


And... Who else knew it was Zhang Bi Chen singing in the BGM of ep8? Raise your hands, lets be friends! XD

She actually married an actual living chicken and they even grew up together lmao! I cant HAHAHAHA

On another note, had fun watching episode 1. I initially thought this would have a dark vibe considering the angsty feels from the title. Yet this was so light and hilarious to watch. Will definitely look forward for future episodes.

So, has anyone noticed how the supporting couples represent "What if" situations in YY and YD's relationship struggle?…
I really wanted to share this but thought it would be out of place considering the angst during airing time and so I gradually forgot to do so.

The contrast of the other failed relationships gave us a way to recognize how YY and YD's story was truly beautiful and worthy of watching it develop. Immortal Samsara may not be considered excellent for resolving some of its conflicts but it was the best in presenting the Romance genre.

Immortal Samsara admirably demonstrated the significance of 'balance' in relationships, through the presentation of each couple and character seen by us viewers. Although not everyone can notice these details you gave, they were still really good points that needs appreciation. Especially since it added to the enjoyment of seeing Ying Yuan and Yan Dan portraying "the best display of a healthy and mature relationship".

Millions of Kudos to you for describing these observations perfectly Anlly! I think you could add this on your review. 💕

Really loved this. I appreciated LBFAD more because of you. I was shocked when I read about the 4yrs of production time? wow. This just gave me another reason to admire this epic drama.

Honestly, I actually didn't pay too much attention to Esther and Dylan being the male leads since I did not watch any of their series' and only heard about them. But then after watching Ep1-2 when they switched souls, I almost jumped at my seat seeing them both so good at portraying different personalities. I couldn't believe myself for not knowing about these two amazing actors. After finishing the short but truly amazing 36eps, I immediately became a devoted fan of them and lurked on twitter for any posts related to them. I'm also waiting for Esther's next drama, "A romance of a little forest". Now, I'm rewatching LBFAD together with my grandmother. When I told her about this drama and made her watch this, she was blown away by the perfect blend of action, bgm, and romcom(her favourite) that this drama offered. And she told me she never had fun like this ever since she watched AOL, a xianxia she really loved.

Lastly, thank you for adding si ming's quote! I really loved all of her quotes especially the "All that exists is fate, only love is not fate." This is the third review I really liked from you especially after your ALP review (◡‿◡ *)~ You may not know me but I joined your discord since 2021 so It was really fun seeing all of the LBFAD talks there HAHA. I'm still hoping to see you review some korean dramas like "Alchemy Of Souls" but still, here's a big heart! ❤️

Hey Ennea, I'm glad you finally got time to finish IS! YY and YD have such a wholesome and mature relationship.…
Thank you, It was so fulfilling for me to finish watching another favourite drama especially after a busy week ♡ Facts!! Even the way Yan dan and Ying yuan interact are so fun since almost all of the time, they match and easily understand each other's thoughts. This couple is truly a perfect epitome of a beautiful and mature relationship!

Thank you sometimes it feels like I'm not very good with words and getting my point across.
I can relate with not being able to express what I feel most of the time. Even now, I seek help from google just to find the right words. But do not worry, You really made me smile with your review and I understood your points easily, dont worry! 🥰
