Moonstruck

That line where he said 'You're taking it out on me' when she was being irritatable. I don't know why I like it so much.haha It's so refreshing to see what healthy relationship they have.
For all the bad stuff they are going thru, they are really pretty chill couple.

From what I understood, those slaves are from demon realm. They're basically like prisoners of war in the Yin Palace. Her mother is one of those slaves, and their dream is to get back to demonrealm. Which is why RuLing wants to lift the barrier.

They're like one kinky couple who likes doing role plays.
Brother and sister, and now Madam and her boytoy 😂🤣

One thing I'm confused, is RuLing half demon?
There seem to be some stigma with being a demon, but why was RuLing even allowed to be head of a sect?

In Arthur we trust 🙏
I think he's really picky with dramas and characters he play. He might missed a bit with Eat,Run,Love, but so far, LiXun and Sima Jiao are iconic.
This makes me excited for Love Beyond the Grave even though I'm trying hard to manage expectation.haha

I was happy even if this stayed as a comedic series that gives us butterflies. But woah, episode 12 onwards set a different tone and they did it right!
It was gory, heavy and dark when it needed it to be. Again, this series just continue to positively surprise.💫

I don't get ep13, what is actually 'happening' when they visit their soul manor? haha

You know what, normally I don't like CGI characters. But her otter form is so darn cute and funny! All the expressions are on point 🤣🤣

Dramas on this time era usually have bad ending. I hope this one doesn't traumatize us.🕯🕯

I have to agree. Even though I like both leads, it wasn't capturing my interest.
I expected it to have a more serious and gritty tone. It pains me to say it felt lame on most parts.
And the side plots were also not that interesting. ZY was also not so convincing as a female general. I wish they just went all out with more romance than having half baked plots. 🥲
I'm on ep26 and paused it to watch WDBTD.
Might pick it up one day again too.

Also I just want to point out how the rating is slowly going upwards. This started with a really low score, and with an obvious negative bias from some viewers. The way it's going up means it's objectively good.
Total contrast to other overhyped series that starts big then crash and burn.
Anyway, not that rating really matters lol

I've dropped LOTFG for this and I'm now on ep9.
I've been trying to figure out what makes this show so much fun (aside from my little bias for Arthur). This drama reminds me of shoujo animes, a likeable funny FL and proper tsundere ML haha
The story is also simple and easy to follow, not too much conspiracy and focus on side characters. I think around 80% of each episodes are just leads interacting with each other! (something that is rare for xianxia). It's definitely hitting all the right spot for me. 😆

Honestly LOTFG is only okay for me. The expectation I got from some of the battlescene pics from last year did not match the reality.
Anyway, this new drama appeared out of the blue for me (even the mydramalist page also seem not prepared for it). Having no expectation is a good thing. But please don't suck🕯🕯

I've been seeing more ChengLei clips on Tiktok, it's so cute how he is really shy.
I have the impression he's not one of those guys who knew they are attractive from early on. It seems the new found fame and adoration is baffling for him.
So refreshing seeing handsome men unaware they are handsome and not being full of themselves. Haha

And just from the bts, aren't the visuals insane 🤯
It only needs a semblance of a plot as their faces are enough to catch interest

I'm so excited to see toxic ZhangLingHe again 😘

In the novel, the events were actually seamless and logical. You can even follow the reasoning of the villains and how things escalated the way they did.
They did take a lot of liberty in drama version, there are just too many characters and sub-arcs in the novel that is hard to put on screen.
But I can also understand how the laters eps seem bland, they did what they can to adapt it for tv.

It's a pretty simple plot that is somehow fun to watch.
I like both ML and FL, but at the moment I only see sibling chemistry. Let's see in later eps when romance starts to kick in.

And I gotta mention it again, Arthur's voice is just *chef's kiss 🤌😘".

She seems good. I think she'll be a couple with the snakeguy

He really left his mark after Lighter & Princess, I think that became his representative work.
He was in a bit of scandal after that (ex-gf tried to extort money and leaked intimate photos). Anyway he recovered after a short hiatus.
Also, he's a nepo baby, his parents are big in entertainment industry (actress mom and director dad, his dad even directs in Hollywood). He can afford to be selective with work and take breaks when needed. Btw, altho he's a nepo baby, he's not annoying. He's truly talented and also based on interviews and reality shows, he seems quite grounded and not too reliant on his parents's fame.
