Amazing story, unforgettable characters, and nonstop action!

I was first drawn in by the opening scene of the red-clad female general from Jinxiu, aiming her peacock feather-tipped arrow towards the formidable Susha general on horseback. Two arrows were fired in quick succession, the first deflected, the next hitting its target. The Susha general, disbelief on his face, falling to the ground. Afterwards, Susha soldiers surrounding and protecting him...

This was the start of the most amazing Cdrama I've seen so far. Watching this for the past few weeks as it aired was like being caught in a raging river, going over rapids, boulders, at times descending into small pools of calm water, but only briefly, because those moments of respite would quickly trickle and whirl into new currents that gushed relentlessly towards its final conclusion. What a wild ride, and I loved every minute of it!

The story, plot, characters, set design, music were unforgettable. I couldn't believe how much detail went into each scene, like the costumes, interiors, hairstyles etc. were impressive. Everything was brought to life. I also liked the outdoor / nature scenes, the pacing of the story, and the fight choreography. CZY had his own fighting style - raw and powerful, which is different from say Cheng Lei (in MJTY or LOTFG) who had a more graceful and controlled style (although not sure how much the actor did with these scenes). LQ's fighting forms were beautiful as well, you can tell she has a great foundation in traditional dance. She is truly the epitome of a female general! Really enjoyed the action sequences from them.

I also loved how the relationship developed and deepened between the MC. Their love was rooted in mutual respect and understanding, which was so unbelievable considering how they hated and wanted to kill each other. He definitely fell for her first based on how he described her portrait in such detail! Loved them so much! The other characters were great too - my favorites were FSG's Feng battalion soldiers, Dr. Ling, FSG's father, Murong father, and the dark horse couple, FXY & XJY 💞. The character development & script, really brought everyone to life. There were some characters though who weren't developed as well, like the female doctor, XJS, & Murong Yao, but that didn't take away from my enjoyment of FH.

Fated Hearts will stick with me for a while - I'll probably watch it a few more times 😆 before I can move on to the next one!

Highly recommend!
