still at 5.4. I don't think it's going to change too much. sometimes it can go up or down by 0.2. don't worry about the douban ratings.

I read a review that cited two reasons for the low douban ratings are C-netizens have a thing about his voice dub, and the drama is polarizing to them. It's a nice review.

I don't put too much stake in Douban ratings for the reasons mentioned, especially when a drama is polarizing. I've seen a few dramas with low ratings due to polarization. In Dafeng's case, however, the low ratings don't reflect its entertainment value, creativity, and uniqueness. As long as his fans keep supporting him, he should keep using his own voice, and he is immensely popular.

ok, so it takes time for the true # Watchers to show up. It should end up toward 20k mark.

oh ok, thanks ,i'm sure it'll go much higher in the coming weeks

the douban user ratings is quite high at 103,845. I would expect it to climb to 150k eventually. That aligns with the super high heat index the drama is receiving

Why is the # of watchers on MDL not higher if the heat index is over 30K?

every character main or supporting had their own dynamics and conflicts. There were also children to adult dynamics. another favorite was Hong Ri and Bai Jue friendship. HR, a Qilin, was dependable, loyal and protected BJ, also bff.

When I see comments about ALP, I get nostalgic thinking about all the love stories in that drama, even love triangle between the evil Wu Huang and Mu Guang, and Gu Jun, and the love between Feng Ran and Jian Jian, Oh there were so many cp and love stories, and lifetimes in a single drama.

Tian Qi and Bai Jue had a complex dynamic where they often clashed due to their contrasting personalities. Tian Qi viewed Bai Jue as too cold and distant (nickname is ice cube in the drama), while Bai Jue preferred to be left alone and found Tian Qi's behavior intrusive. Despite their frequent criticisms, disagreements, and friendly fights, they were on the same team and worked together as true gods. It was their differing temperaments that caused the conflict. Later, their relationship evolved into a love triangle, adding more complexity and emotional depth to their interactions. They did become bff in the end.

even jokers can rate

Actually, I liked the primarily pastel colors of the other one, for it me it matched the tone, mood, music, theme, personalities, and atmosphere or the ethereal and enchanting ambiance of that drama, especially in some emotional and passionate scenes like when Bai Jue unblock Shanggu or taught her sword. However, it was not all pastel. It also depicted evil with dark and vibrant colors (purple flowers) adding intensity and contrast. There was a wedding scene with striking matching elegant black and gold costumes really elegant design.

In contrast, the bolder colors of this drama create a mainly energetic and exciting ambiance, better aligning with its dynamic tone and mood.

ALP is complex drama. It can't be sum up by a word.

I'm most curious about this drama, so I'm looking forward to it the most. These short dramas may not be the big popular dramas but I'm into following his work, and he's doing so many different kinds of characters, which is why I find him interesting to follow.

If she wants to take the blame, then let her, that's why he fired her, to teach her that lesson. Nice guys come in last.

Star: 星 (xīng) Moon: 月 (yuè)

I had the exact same thoughts when I read his post. But Bai Jue also made serious mistakes too when he was young. They used that to bribe him to train Shanggu. No one is perfect, not even a True God.

"As long as the world remains, so shall we" - means it will be a happy ending where they both become Gods?

Zhang Ya Qin is a talented actress. Her manner of speech and demeanor for female royalty is familiar to me having watched another Tang dynasty drama.

she was slapped by her mother in BCE, and it was a real slap, not pretend because YZ wanted to really feel it to make her reaction realistic.

His own voice in Kill Me Love Me sounded so much like his voice in ALP when he was Jing Yuan. That's why I thought ALP was also his voice, but you confirmed it is not. After his performance in ALP, he got main roles and leading roles.

I first saw him in Wrong Carriage, Right Groom, very lighthearted easy and fun to watch, and I thought he was charming

seriously?
