no? everyone has different preferences when it comes to plots and dramas. not all romance dramas are the same and they don't have to be. a lot of people like slow burn romance. it doesn't always have to be intense and quick. there's room for different tropes in different dramas.
It wasn't as bad as people are making it out to be, but i don't really get the purpose of this season overall. If viewed as separate from the first two seasons, it's still good and the actors all did a great job, I just don't really see how this tied into the other seasons. It feels more like a spinoff of sorts. Maybe if there was more leading into them going back to the Borderlands it would make more sense but it just seemed random. I kind of wish it was more about the games and who is running them/why they started. It's still worth watching, but maybe go into it with the idea that it's separate from the other seasons.
I'm guessing the ending means an American version is in the works, or maybe a global type of version where it ends up having people from various countries. I won't doom post about that because while it isn't necessary and would definitely be a cash grab from Netflix, that doesn't mean it will be bad
I feel like the ending was too rushed and could've been extended by at least another episode or two. I wonder…
Wei Liang's death was so unnecessary. They didn't need any sort of catalyst to go and rescue Man Man's father. They would've rescued him anyways for her. Also, I hate that Wei Shao wasn't there at the end when they were visiting his grave. He should've been there too since they were all like brothers and he also had his own little gold weapon too.
Man Man's cousin's death was sad but a lot more understandable with her not wanting Bi Zhi to be controlled
The deaths of Yu Lou and Liu Yan were super anticlimactic, I was hoping they'd actually get punishment, but they got the easy way out. Although I guess them dying thinking the other was still alive and that they failed each other sort of makes up for it. And I guess Liu Yan died the same way he killed Wei Liang. I really wanted to see Yu Lou's face though. They made it seem like such a big deal just to never show us in the end. I thought she was going to take the mask off after she found out Liu Yan knew about it and actually cared about her.
Man Man's uncle also died way too easily after all he did. He literally used his own daughter as a hostage in order to kill of his own niece's new family all for some loser he had zero reason to trust
Also, what happened to Yan coming to help at Panyi in the end after Wei Qu saved Man Man's father? He said they were going to aid them but they never showed up
Not getting to see Wei Shao and Man Man reunite after the battle was sad too, I wanted to see him go home to her after instead of it cutting to the future.
Also what happened to Qiao Ci in the end too? I expected him to fight with them but he kinda just disappeared
The battle itself ended so quickly and easily too despite them making it out to be something so dramatic and serious.
Still enjoyed the drama overall, but the ending was way too rushed with too many holes. It doesn't do the drama justice. And I'm still upset they killed off Wei Liang for no reason. He and Xiao Tao deserved a happy ending together.
I feel like the ending was too rushed and could've been extended by at least another episode or two. I wonder if they filmed more and then cut it down. It felt like everything ended so suddenly and the main antagonists lost so quickly.
Overall, a really good drama though. I just wish the ending was more fleshed out
The question is: why does there always have to be a transgender character in the first place? Netflix always has…
there isn't always a transgender character, and even if there is, why do you care? why does it bother you so much? these people exist in real life so why shouldn't they be portrayed within the media as well?
1. yes they get paid 2. backstories vary from person to person, so not sure 3. organ ring was started by the main square manager as far as i know because his child died from not being able to receive a kidney, so he figures these people are dying anyways, might as well harvest their organs to save others too 4. i thought that theory was debunked but idk 5. no-eul was brought in by the main square manager directly in 2020 or something 6. i believe he ended up going back because there was nothing left for him after his wife died 7. the three of them are just all involved in the games, i don't think there's much more to it than that. but since they have more special roles, they are closer i guess
they didn't ruin her character, they showed that she's human too and isn't perfect. she was excited to get them out and had a lapse in judgement like most people would

Rant about the last couple episodes below
2. backstories vary from person to person, so not sure
3. organ ring was started by the main square manager as far as i know because his child died from not being able to receive a kidney, so he figures these people are dying anyways, might as well harvest their organs to save others too
4. i thought that theory was debunked but idk
5. no-eul was brought in by the main square manager directly in 2020 or something
6. i believe he ended up going back because there was nothing left for him after his wife died
7. the three of them are just all involved in the games, i don't think there's much more to it than that. but since they have more special roles, they are closer i guess
