Japan does like a masterpiece of a serie a year and I guess this takes the crown for 2025.
The actors did a fenomal job, especially Akane and Toya's I have to shout out to them cause damn?? Miyazaki Yu was a pleasant surprise, I really liked her portrait of Akane. She looked so cool playing the drums. But Suda Masaki as Toya, woah, terrific. He was an hurricane and sucked everything in his orbit everytime he was on screen. Paired with Takeru while they were performing, it was one of the best highlights of the drama. I would have like more scenes of the band all together cause it was a joy to watch them interacting.
Loved the music and all the songs, they were all very my style. Story a bit of a cliché and it left me kinda wanting more, it lacked a bit of depth (didn't really feel the romance because, tbh, it wasn't really a focal point and second, I was way more invested in all their bond as friends, but it's also very true that bandmates often develop crushes for each other, so). Overall a solid drama and a great watch!
The fact I already know this is not gonna end well for any of the character I love makes me want to punch my pillow repeatedly, but it's too good to stop watching 😭
Ren RuYi omg PLEASE she's so attractive I have never been so jealous of a male lead in my life, those moves she…
She may be my favorite female lead ever of a cdrama, she's such a girl crush. If someone knows of other dramas that have FLs similar to her, I'm all ears for recommendations!!
First time in my life I see a girl in a historical drama cross dressing as a man and look believable. Princess Yang Ying doing a fantastic job interpreting the role of a teenager prince, she actually act and speak as a fifteen noble young man 👏🏻
On episode 10 and the women in this drama are chef kiss for real my god I'm so happy, I love all of them 😭 The FL is soooo my type gosh I'd let her do whatever to me 💕
Plus the brotherly bond between the ML and his soldier friends is so heartwarming, I love the scenes with them all together teasing the ML about his relationship.
(also the ML's actor is way better than I expected?? This man has very expressive eyes and damn he /knows/ how to play a yearner, I'm liking him a lot so far)
Btw the actor who plays Chu Zhao, damn what a pretty face?? I hope his acting is just as good because I don't have any idea who his character is, but I'm already intrigued by his past trauma + scheming to gain favor.
Saw only the first two episodes and while there are some questionable moments, it left me wanting for more, so I'd take that as a win (still wish they had explained how the hell her master found He Yan almost dead drowning in a river, but maybe they'll tell us later? Who knows.)
Also am I the only one who's having problem with the audio? Sometimes it switch a bit and it turns weird, but maybe it's just because I'm watching the youtube version.
Journey to immortality is lonely. But I think you are coming to the part where he will meet a familiar face.
I'm sure his journey will be lonely, but even a friend he see once a year would be nice, I just feel so sad there's no one he can trust or he can see as kindred spirit 😭 At least he looks okay with being always so alone 🥲
Tbh I hope when they'll have Zhou Ye pose as a man for her character, they'll work well with the make up bc I want it to be believable for everyone to mistake her as a man. She's an amazing actress so I'm sure she will deliver no problem on her part 😌
It's been almost five years since I saw this masterpiece and Yin Zheng still remain the most beautiful opera performer I've ever seen in a drama. He just look stunning when he's wearing opera make up and costumes, paired with his amazing acting, he managed to lure even me in his performances when I don't understand a thing about chinese opera.
It's basically old fashion cupcake in a different font 🥺 I don't know if I will like this as much as old fashion cupcake, but for now I will be along for the ride 💕
