Moonstruck

I started this before, but the art style was really a turnoff for me.

Based on experience from other shows, this 'epilogue' sometimes only end up being 3mins extra/special clip. I'm crossing my fingers we get something more substantial here though. But same as you, I will take whatever.haha

Btw, anyone knows where I can download the novel art in HD. They are super pretty and I want to print them out.

I'm so happy we'll get 2 epilogues. But my gut feeling is that these will be supershort vids. Crossing my fingers that I am wrong

I'm on episode 6 and struggling to continue this as it is making my blood boil because Kla is f-ing stupid. Like I get it, he wanted to save the fake friend, but he made dumb moves one after another. If he could just stop screaming and use his brain for a second. And the worst of all, he had the audacity to blame Khim. The writers could have executed this 'separation/misunderstadning' differently, it's so annoying how they did it.

is there anywhere where we can read the novel with good translation?

I still can't get myself to write a full review as it feels like that would be a closure.. I miss this show. T.T

can you tell us how different DFQC is in the novel pls?

really? How come it is not in Mydramalist, usually they add even rumors here.. crossing fingers it's true

I saw an article that he is mostly dubbed (probably more so on historical/costume dramas) because he has a 'weak' voice, it doesn't match the character.
I think the voice actor did a great job though.

Yes, the back view with the muscled arms is imposing, the front view not so much, that's probably why they skipped a frontal shot. Glad to hear Dylan is working on himself.

It's also not uncommon in the Chinese industry that some actors skip this effort. Some use body suits, pads and body doubles. Happy to hear Dylan is dedicated and putting some work.

I have another important random question haha
On *that scene*, the thunder punishment scene, was that really Dylan's back or is it a body double?
I know he's fit but he's still on the slim side.
That back and arm scene is so hot hahaha
But it looks more muscular than Dylan

Yes, and same as in Ashes of Love, Xufeng scoured the world to look for a fragment of JinMi's spirit to revive her.

I'll keep reposting this every now and then until all these comments about 'open ending, it is a dream/hallucination/it's not real' comments go away (you guys are scaring off new viewers lol).
I'm telling you THE ENDING IS REAL.
This is a Xianxia genre, you should not equate physical death with absolute death. Their physical manifestations are just a vessel for their primordial spirit/soul. Some spirits are not born from parents, they could be in a form whatever being (plants, animals, dragons etc) and only thru acquiring 'energy' or 'cultivating' are they able to manifest into physical human form.
In the case of DFQC and Chidi woman, they are even more special as their primordial spirit is way stronger than any beings in the 3 realm.
Remember how in episode 1 they said DFQC is basically indestructible, therefore the best they could do is scatter and trap his spirit in the Haotian tower. Technically, in these 30,000 years he was also dead if we only talk about physical form.
In Xianxia world , you can be *dead* but not *dead dead*. As long as even a wisp of their primordial spirit remains, they can come back to physical form after acquiring enough cultivation. This is basically the same concept DFQC did on XLH primordial spirit inside the seed, nurtured her until she gains form.

SPOILER!!!
In the last episode, you'll notice XLH stopped crying and calmed down when she saw the orchid bone , because she knows there is hope of him coming back, as that orchid bone still has a trace of his spirit. That's why she's also not looking depressed in the 500 years, she's helping DFQC cultivate back to physical form. This is also the reason why the ending seems very anti-climactic, no drama, no effects, XLH wasn't even surprised or shocked, it's because she knew he will be back and it was only a matter of time.
Now that I rethink it, that "I'm back' line is not as lame. It just shows how much faith they have that they will naturally get back together again.

Short answer to is this drama really good : YES

Now for the more objective answer : This doesn't have that same complicated 'saga' as Eternal Love or Ashes of Love. The story here is much simpler and easy to follow. I do think this is one of the best introductory drama for those who are not familiar with Xianxia. However, even though the story is much simpler compared to other xianxia, it is beautifully executed and emotionally charged. Because there are also less characters, you'll see more focus on ML and FL development. The events and action here are also more logical compared to other fantasy dramas. The characters are consistent, the flow is very smooth, there is no love at first sight or grand gestures, the way they fell in love is very natural. DongFang QingCang ironically also reminds me of Yehua, though they are the polar opposite on morals, their actions towards their beloved is steadfast and admirable.

I didn't like you in Meteor Garden, I actually thought the franchise gave you fame before you even deserve it. But seeing you now in LBFaD, wow, what a glow up! You did justice to the role, very well done. It's real skill to project that commanding aura without looking like you're trying too hard., plus the emotional scenes are also beautifully done. Moon Supreme will go down as one of my most favorite characters. Looking forward to your future works.

and then disappearing in black smoke..so dreamy <3

I see. thanks!!
