I Can't Even
FL lead babytalking is a serious turn off. The fact that her creepy shifu who is hundreds of years older than her is attracted to her babyish behavior is a major creepy-ass red flag. Then he reincarnates her and gives her the same name! Okay weird. But if he just admitted he was obsessed with his ex-disciple, her second incarnation's time on the mountain wouldn't have been so tough. "Oh he's just weird, let's let it go." Then there's Sexual Harrassment Guy Zhou Hou who claims he loves her and won't let it go, even when she always says no all the time, after 2 lifetimes. And the two-dimensional, biased head of the sect who can't see past his nose. Don't forget the compulsory Annoying Shitty Princess who can't ever grow up. These are terrible, very boring, unsympathetic characters.
Best parts of this show:
- Wan Jie/Chu Bufu: best character so far, sweetest, best, most misunderstood, and died way too early. I wish he would come back. But in this show, probably not. The stars of this show are the most annoying.
- Qin Ke: even though all he does is be uptight and sulk, he is played by Deng Wei, and I can watch him pout sulkily with that mouth of his all day long. He's also the only one of her male friends who respects her feelings and doesn't objectify her even after she was reincarnated. I wish she would stop being a baby and hook up with him instead. Or that he would just stop being so uptight and find a nice girl to make out with.
- Mu Yu: I don't know yet, but I think he's actually a bad guy. But he's cute and sweet, so I'm all for it, whatever side he's on.
- Her bff Zhenzhen (I think), she's nice and normal. And her boyfriend is sweet too.
- Shifu's girlfriend Zhou-something. She's actually pretty cool, even though her destined boyfriend is obsessed with a child. I mean, she deserves way better and I hope she moves on soon.
- The demons are more interesting than the immortals, that is clear.
Anyway, I'm about to give up but I read in a spoiler that the FL turns into a demon, so it might be worth continuing on to see that.
