13 Fireflies

8.8 would be great, it would put it on par with TMPOB and Love and Redemption. One of the funniest little pieces of trivia is how Love and Destiny is the highest rated xianxia on Douban with an 8.3 score (impressive for Douban), when it barely made it to 8.4 on MDL (just okay)

At this point I'm starting to wish for an extended director's cut tbh, make it 45 episodes long.

it's like the editing team said... "cut ALL the things!"

lmao I couldn't make it past 2 episodes of Chongzi... that makeup. It made everyone look so weird.

Yeah...the drama is worth watching just for him...he carries it. Anyone else in the lead role and it would have been unwatchable.

The single best thing about that drama is the chemistry between the leads. At one point I needed to go sit in front of an electric fan :P

I don't think CXX has ever done a couple's shoot...so maybe it's a policy he has. I wish they could have done the livestream AND a photoshoot.

Don't get me wrong, I adore CMC and HXL, but why aren't we getting a special photoshoot of the main leads? I'm just not sure how to read this production team. I get that everyone is managed separately, but it boggles the mind that the supporting couple got a photoshoot and not the main. (by the way, the photoshoot was amazing, love every single shot).

Saw this melon too, not sure if it's been confirmed, but if that's the case, I'll be glad to be flooded with pictures and video and I'm hoping and praying they make a special announcement *hint hint Liu Ning, come on!*

GMP has a special epilogue consisting of 4 mini episodes that is simply the most adorable thing ever (and happy) and totally healed me after the sad ending though. I cannot recommend this drama enough, *especially* if you like CXX.

This reminds me of how FIL is now back trending on the Youku app, you are not alone. I watched FIL while watching TSL so it was a major shift every time I switched between dramas but somehow I managed. I much prefer his own voice though.

Wow...this page now officially has more comments than Love and Redemption (a drama aired in 2020).

They keep feeding us breadcrumbs...they're the worst I swear

🤣🤣🤣🤣 i can't

This really warms my heart...I feel seen lol

They're not banned per se but sorta put on hold? It's a softban. They need to re-edit these dramas and then release them with little fanfare. Most of the issues were with how BLs were taking over everything and the toxic fan culture around them. They'll probably release them bit by bit so it might be a while unfortunately.

Haha thanks

I'm so into CMC now, Guardians of the Lands has straight up skyrocketed to the top of my most anticipated dramas, even knocking out Heaven Official's Blessing, The Long Promise and Immortality. You've summed up so many of my thoughts so well. And the more I think about the ending, the better I feel about it, for some reason.

I think we will but they defiinitely weren't planning to have one so they're probably scrambling now to put something together after the massive response to the finale. For the the producer to come out and literally ask if people want one and then say he can make it happen, that's a big deal.

Sameee I've been looking for the BGM
