Yeah, a hedgehog and a run-away groom. Sigh!BTW, did you cry in any of the scenes? I know they're supposed to…
Even at dying, Mu Yuan manages to give a long speech. I was rather amused at that because while his life seems to be slipping away, he comes back and talks (a lot), then his eyes close, he continues to talk, and talk some more. I was like, come on, die, though losing Mu Yuan is one of the anti climax scenes for me.
BTW, did you cry in any of the scenes? I know they're supposed to be sad which would have normally drawn rivers of tears from me, but this time, I just rolled my eyes, not that I have a heart of coal (XD), I just saw through the director's intention and didn't feel any sadness at all.

IKR? It's been almost 1 year for me and many fans here (we watched it while airing so we got to discuss the drama a lot, you can't imagine the fun we had) and we still check on The Untamed page every day, and try to comfort new fans.
Also search for the behind-the-scenes videos on YouTube. These videos really reinforce everything you see about the couple onscreen and also help to fill the void. Watch the concert videos if you haven't seen them.
They also have a manhua (manga). If you check on the original page (The Untamed) at the "Recent Discussions" section, there are links to the manhua and other various interesting videos and links. That's how many of us passed our days until we finally walked out of this rabbit hole :)
I woke up at 5 AM so that I can complete the whole thing before I start work (I must be crazy). Yeah, you guess it - I didn't get 'my' epic scene. What did I get instead? A runaway groom! Heck!
Sigh, the logic is for 3 years old (no intention in humiliating 3 years old).
So by Episode 47, the closest to 'my' scene is Tou has a 'pretend' fight with Mu Yuan and he just 'stands' there with his fan. That's it! And as for Xue Zhi, she jumps up and with one stroke, everyone falls. You're so right earlier when you mentioned about wishing those actors can really 'fight'. I don't even dare to wish them to fight, just some watchable, believable movements would do, and even this little wish they fail to deliver :( What a joke!
How is the rating so high when all of the comments either hate it or are lukewarm? Is it worth the watch?
I just downgraded my rating from 9.0 to 8.5. I may still downgrade further once I complete the drama. Having said that, the only reason I may maintain my rating is because of Luo Yunxi. Despite his extremely thin little body and extremely white ghost-like face, I love his visual. I love how he looks half hiding behind his big fan, with his hair flying and clothing floating. I guess that's about all I like about this drama.
The Pillow Book novel is better than Three Miles of Peach Blossoms novel imho. Although, the drama leaves a lot…
Yeah, I hate watching how they make girls look stupid and lovesick all the time, and care for nothing else but pursue their men all over the place. I feel it's degrading. Don't get me wrong. I love heart wrenching love story but pursuing men like this as if they itch to get laid is absolutely abominable.
Didn't they fight together with Lord Lu's men in episode 34?
I'm at Episode 46 and so far the fights are pathetic. It's either that gets hurt or this faints. Never a satisfying fight. Now that one of the strongest opponents is dead, there's no one to fight anymore because with Chong Xue Zhi's power alone, she can kill them all with a wave of her hand. No more fun. Don't think I'd ever get my scene :(
Sigh, the logic is for 3 years old (no intention in humiliating 3 years old).
Baby faces playing fathers, that's so true and so hard to watch. Such a shame. When actors reach their 30s, it's almost like their death sentence; they can only play elderly roles. Normally these veteran actors' skills are honed and better actors, and yet they're not being used. Having said that, China is mass producing actors every year and they need to give all these new actors chances in the industry. This way, the more established ones do not have a stranglehold and demand hefty compensation, and they can be replaced by anyone, which should be good (healthier?) for the industry in a way.
Sigh, the logic is for 3 years old (no intention in humiliating 3 years old).
If I had not been that obsessed with 'my' scene (Tou and Xue Zhi hand in hand combating), I would have dropped it long ago. I still haven't seen 'my' coveted scene yet at Episode 44, but it feels we're getting close. At the same time, I'm also prepared for more frustrations. So viewers who have completed the series, please don't spoil it for me.
