So I watched the trailer and...I can't figure out if Deng Wei is supposed to be playing Sakujun (as previously mentioned), Ryuurei (because he talks about 'kindred spirits') or Ensei (because of that beard!). Anyone have a clue? It seems like they mashed a lot of the characters into one.
I lol at your rant because I just watched this and I feel the same way! Jack was clearly the superior choice in…
hahahahaha...this is so funny. You know I was not expecting this kinda throwaway show to affect me as much as it did, but it did! Now I've made two songs about Jack and how fucking painful that must have been. Poor dude! Like...whyyyyy?!?! Also add Jack falls hopelessly in love irl with some girl she doesn't like. Take that, stupid!
First comment ever on here! 😁I just wanted to say: Deng Wei was sooo much better for her, through the WHOLE…
I lol at your rant because I just watched this and I feel the same way! Jack was clearly the superior choice in every way, but noooooo...she had to stay with the other dork. And who could ever not change their minds after seeing Deng Wei cry? For real, I've never seen a person cry so beautifully. Ever ever. He's a painting, a study in sadness. So freaking gorgeous, I can't imagine ever letting him go in the film. 'Realistically' after Jack gets respawned in the game, she'd be like 'oh wooooow Jack I can touch you now?' and they'd hit it until they couldn't stand up anymore! And maybe kill the prince, get out of the game, and she meets up with Jack irl. I wonder if that indeed is how it was originally written, but they had to change it bc censors. (poor prince, he wasn't bad, but he just can't compare!) Very damn frustrating! Seemed like a missed opportunity.
I didn't want to watch this at first (bc stupid title), but I was pleasantly surprised as it turned out a lot better than expected. The plot wasn't bad, and it was pretty okayfine engaging (waaaaaaay better than Journey of Chong Zi, which was a disaster for the most part imo and just hard to watch). The acting was decent for the most part, the and FL didn't annoy me as much as others do. But let's be honest, the reason I'm here is for Deng Wei. His character was absolutely heartbreaking, and Deng Wei's doing what he excels at: being lost/sad/confused/devastated and crying. q_q
He doesn't emote much, but when he does the sun and the moon mourn with him. Nobody I've seen cries like him, and it shatters me every time. It's so heartbreaking to thing such a beautiful creature - inside and out - couldn't even touch the one he loves more than the universe. He was locked away in darkness for ages, just so she could be with her NPC boyfriend. He even deleted all his memories and got respawned in the game as an NPC, just to be near her. And she still was like 'ummm no' to him and went for the dour prince anyway. Like...what? (Okay fine, weirdo, he's waaaay too good for you anyway!) And seeing Deng Wei in a fuzzy raccoon tail hat is worth watching this show just for that!
I wish I could see him in more of these heartbreaking roles. It's truly his secret sauce, and whenever he plays them, he absolutely steals the show and creates an unforgettable performance.
For me, it felt believable for Su Yi Shui to fall for Mu Qing Ge, because on his birthday, he tried going back…
I think it would have helped a lot if they had grubbed him up a lot, made him look super shitty. he comes in all dressed in princely robes, not looking abused or anything. maybe more blood capsules maybe would've helped lol. instead he doesn't look like he's suffered at all, he still has all the trappings and bearings of a prince. he doesn't look like he's considered a second-class citizen, despite whatever teasing he bears. he still has favor. anyway, a lot could have been done to sell the 'why?' in this. think more 'john snow' where he is clearly considered a bastard and has to look after horses and stuff, is a lot more down to earth than the rest of his family.

i guess that makes sense. i don't know why it didn't land, perhaps his isolation didn't land as much as it should have for me. Perhaps the concept of him being mistreated by the female sex was somewhat unrealistic because he is so good looking, running around looking amazing. It's hard for me to believe he didn't have ladies being nice to him all his life, despite his mother. Btw, isn't he from a town called 'hohhot'? i don't know if it's pronounced 'ha-hawt' or 'ho-hot', but either way...!!! lol
