Thx, I always give high ratings to plot heavy dramas. Anyway been out all day, haven't had a chance to read yours…
If they make S3 and ask LYN to reprise his role, I wouldn't be surprised if he accepted it. One of the main production companies that made Eternal Brotherhood has made a few dramas with him as one of the cast be it as a main actor, supporting or guest star. It seems they really like him and he likes them too.
That's interesting. I'm feeling that there's still a possibility that they'll make S3. The drama's weibo account…
If they do make S3, I hope they'll get bigger budget. The drama deserves big budget. I feel it's really a pity that such a good story didn't get appropriate treatment it deserved.
Interestingly, the Douban score has now been closed/removed again. This suggests they must be exploring continuing…
That's interesting. I'm feeling that there's still a possibility that they'll make S3. The drama's weibo account hasn't posted a farewell message. They did at the end of S1 but didn't say anything when S2 ended. YXW's didn't post a farewell message either on his weibo and neither did the other cast.
Glad to hear it! Did Painting Jianghu manage to get completed? Only see a couple of clips of BTS on bilibili where…
Wouldn't you mind PMing me one or a couple of these articles? I'd love to read them. I don't speak or read Chinese but I can use Google translate :D I agree with you on Zichuan Xiu being his most complex role. It's hard to make ppl laugh and he nails Xiu's antics really well. And thanks to the screenwriters who created witty lines. His Zichuan Xiu is more fascinating than the donghua's version lol I look forward to S3 of STOTD, too! Perhaps we'll get Wu Zetian and Di Renjie in flashbacks? That would be great.
It seems to me there is a lot of new arcs that were opened that is unnecessary if they don't make more seasons…
Ah I see. There seems to be a little bit misunderstanding because of the "brotherhood" in the title. I've just googled. Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is a Japanese anime. Original title is Hagane no renkinjutsushi. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1355642/ The donghua adaptation is called Purple River. I believe it's a direct translation from 紫川, isn't it? Here's the imdb. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17048374/

If reports were true, it would take a miracle if they released it in August this year lol. On reddit someone said the studio has completed 15 episodes so there's 37 more to go. They're busy making another donghua which is more popular than Purple River. That's why the completion of Purple River 2 is progressing slowly. Season 1 has 42 episodes with each episode about 19 min long. Like the drama, it covers the first arc. I don't know if season 2 will cover the same arc as season 2 of the drama. The cast is the same but they've changed the character models.

Painting Jianghu was filmed before Eternal Brotherhood, wasn't it? That would be awesome if it can be aired. Yang Xuwen's not professionally trained in martial arts but can act like he's good at it. So far I've seen him in LOCH, SToTD and Eternal Brotherhood and each character is so different from one another. When I watched these 3 dramas, I saw Guo Jing, Lu Lingfeng, and Zichuan Xiu, not Yang Xuwen. He's really good. Where can I read reviews of his Zichuan Xiu's interpretation? Was it on douban?
Yang Xuwen is getting tons of praise online for his complez and schizophrenic interpretation of Zichuan Xiu. Maybe…
Glad to hear it! Did Painting Jianghu manage to get completed? Only see a couple of clips of BTS on bilibili where he's seen fighting with wires and stuff.
Q for everyone; do you think ZX did the right thing by infiltrating the Bei camp and assassinating LH for betrayal…
I can't say whether it's right or wrong objectively but I can say that killing LH had been his main obsession since he failed to do it. Ge Ying Xing was like his father to him and he was truly devastated by the death of Ge. He swore to take revenge and saw that LH was the murderer of his Ge.
