The Demon Hunter’s Romance (that was let go due to differing circumstances)
Amazing, but be warned your heart will be healed, torn, healed, and be broken again. I was stuck in a drama slump until this aired. I throughly enjoyed every episode, every moment from the beginning to end. Every detail, turn of plot, twists, connections—everything was painfully perfected. Every character, even smaller roles, were fleshed out and intriguing.
I especially appreciated how the love between Banxia and Xuanye developed. Thank goodness it was not a love at first sight or love without reasoning. Song Zuer and Allen Ren had overflowing chemistry in addition to the top notch storytelling. Gotta give a shout out to Chi Xue, Youhuang, Wen Jian, Lingying, and Xuanye’s father (the most amazing, understanding, and kind father—their reunion was beyond touching and made me teared up).
Alas, the divided ending… it was painful, but beautifully so—a perfect example of “it’s better to have loved and lost, than to not have loved at all.” I’m glad both remembered their last memories together, it would’ve been too much if only Xuanye remembered.
When the ending came and they ultimately, quietly made the best decision for their circumstances, I found it understandable. Xuanye’s people needed him, and so did Banxia’s family. They each had things to take care of, and respected the other person’s decision. For me, this was the ultimate act of love.
In my heart, I’ll imagine that they do indeed meet again after things have settled down in Carefree Land and resume living out their days together.
