Mr. Fanboy stole my heart (and my sanity ?)

I waited over a year for Mr. Fanboy and it was absolutely worth the wait.
Third and Wan are incredibly cute together and their relationship feels natural and genuine. Every episode surprises me, and just when I think I know what's going to happen, another plot twist appears.
As someone who feels emotions deeply, this series completely pulls me in. It makes me laugh, cry, get angry at certain characters (cough Nine cough 😭), and then immediately smile again.
Mr. Fanboy has quickly become one of my favorite BL series alongside Duang With You.
I just LOVE this series sooooo much!!
I 1 000 000% recommend you to watch this if you haven't!! It's going to be the best moments of you life!!! (I hope at least!) Good luck watching Mr. Fanboy!! 😉

Angsty bl

Double Helix is a compelling watch for fans of intense, angsty, and emotionally heavy BL dramas.
Its greatest strength lies in the palpable friction between its leads, capturing the devastating weight of lost time and the unbearable grief of a youth stolen by family interference.
The series pulls no punches when portraying how decades of separation distort genuine affection into toxic desperation, forcing both characters to grapple with what could have been.

​However, the narrative journey isn't without its frustration. Cheng Yichen’s younger brother, Cheng Yicheng, often becomes a difficult figure to root for—his misguided decisions, lack of remorse, and persistent interference stall the path toward peace.

Also, the wife, she knew from the beginning he was hung up over Fu Leng.
After the shooting, nothing was mentioned that she was punished??

​While the reliance on classic melodramatic clichés and a somewhat rushed reconciliation hinder its overall execution, Double Helix delivers an impactful exploration of obsession, trauma, and enduring devotion. It remains a deeply emotional, albeit painful, journey for viewers who enjoy high-stakes romance rooted in shared history and deep wounds.

This shows that a person’s passion for his or her job can be rekindled when s/he no longer has to work just to make a living. The impetus behind the ML’s wake-up call is a winning lottery ticket, which changes his attitude towards his work, rather than his lifestyle. He becomes less isolated along the way and creates a found family among his colleagues.

This drama is primarily character driven. I don’t know enough about the corporate world the characters inhabit to know whether the corporate maneuverings were realistic. I thought that the CEO’s action towards one of the characters in the last episode was odd and I feel that the ML should have at least considered whether he would want to continue to work for a company whose leadership would sacrifice an employee just to teach him a lesson. But many of the characters, including Sales Manager Park and Deputy Manager Yang, were great.

There are no serial killers lurking, no fraught romances, no chaebols, and no spitting up blood. This drama was a good palate cleanser for me after watching too many overwrought (but very fun!) dramas.

✨ SHE SLAPPED THIS HOUSEHOLD INTO SHAPE

OVERALL IMPRESSION🌟
This was a hilarious and entertaining family comedy led by a capable FL who entered a chaotic wealthy household and immediately took command. The mixture of family reform, business trouble, hidden abilities and romance gave the familiar transmigration premise plenty of personality.

WHAT I LIKED💖
• The FL established herself as a formidable matriarch from the opening scene. She remained calm under pressure, acted decisively and refused to tolerate foolishness.
• I loved that she did not simply rescue the family repeatedly. She taught the younger siblings to become useful, responsible and capable of sharing the household burdens.
• The brothers’ transformation was particularly satisfying. Their suspicion gradually became genuine admiration, loyalty and affection.
• The caregiving scenes were unexpectedly funny, especially when the ML had to maintain his unconscious act through some extremely personal medical attention.
• The ML’s secret movements created wonderful comedy as the FL repeatedly questioned whether she was imagining things.
• I enjoyed the eventual reversal in which the commanding ML had to become affectionate, obedient and creative while trying to repair their relationship.
• Liu Yu Hang and Zhang Qi Xuan had excellent chemistry, an appealing height difference and convincing attraction.

WHAT I DISLIKED⚠️
• The ML continued his deception far longer than necessary, even after recognising the FL’s sincerity and competence.
• His hidden assistance did not compensate for allowing her to carry the family’s responsibilities while believing she was alone.
• One sibling’s poor judgment caused serious damage, yet the family remained excessively forgiving.
• The romantic development could have used more affectionate scenes before the conclusion.

PRODUCTION AND PERFORMANCES🎭
The story was well-paced, visually appealing and consistently entertaining. Zhang Qi Xuan convincingly embodied the authority and elegance of an experienced household matriarch, while Liu Yu Hang balanced arrogance, hidden amusement and growing affection. The supporting cast strengthened both the comedy and family development.

FINAL THOUGHTS💭
This was a refreshing comedy about a woman bringing order, competence and purpose into a hopelessly disorganised family. Although the ML’s deception understandably damaged her trust, his later pursuit and the family’s enthusiastic matchmaking made the reconciliation enjoyable. I loved the capable FL, reformed siblings and lively humour, and I can happily recommend it!

FROM REVENGE TO LOVE

Sejujurnya no ekspektasi pas mencoba untuk nonton, that one scene when Qiao Man slapped Wei Shao turned out make me wanna watch this. Ternyata secara plot dan directionnya selera aku banget yang bahkan tiap episodenya itu aku ga terasa waktu nontonnya.

From the first time they met, they really had so much chemistry imo. Terus perubahan dinamika hubungan mereka itu juga sangat di-highlight dan jadi one of the plot itself. Yang aku suka juga ketika suatu cerita itu punya back story dan storynya di-point out di keseluruhan plot kayak TPOB ini. Disini kita dikasih tau kalo kekuatan orang Yanzhou which is disini Qiao Man adalah hatinya yg lembut dan sifatnya yang seperti air, jadi dia bisa pelan pelan membuat orang yang sifat dan hatinya keras seperti batu kayak Wei Shao jadi melembut dan jatuh cinta sama Man Man.

Terus kanal Yongning juga jadi penghubung dari hampir keseluruhan cerita, yang mana Adipati Wei bisa mendapatkan banyak dukungan dari rakyat pun karna kanal ini. Side storynya juga exciting banget, kita bisa liat hubungan antara jenderal-jenderal Wei, terus Wei Liang sama Tao, Qiao Fan sama Bi Zhi, Shinyuan dan Wei Shao juga. So, this drama really make me feel happy and warm at the same time🥺🤍

It's a miracle! - Solid from beginning to end (TL;DR below)

I have finally found it, the one drama that doesn't leave me disappointed with anything.
Agent from Above is super basic. If you're looking for complex plot, setting and characters, a deep meaning, the prettiest costumes and scenery or stellar acting, turn around and don't look back.

What makes Agent from Above so outstanding is how solid it is. It is basic. It is predictable. But it is still engaging. It is one of the few dramas where the ending didn't disappoint me and one of the even fewer dramas where I'd totally watch more seasons.
The episodes are rather short, with 35 minutes on average, and those minutes fly by since there's always something going on.
It certainly helps to know a bit about Chinese history and cultural as well as mythical beliefs, but you can understand what's happening just fine without that knowledge.

ML isn't smart enough to always be one step ahead, but smart enough to not be called an idiot. The fights are becoming consecutively more epic and complex the more the plot progresses, which gives the characters room to grow in a steady pace.
It's fascinating how in a drama about ghosts ad fantasy fights the characters are so realistic in their abilities.

Everything in this drama is down to earth. The side characters cannot take a lot of depth or space, but they are interacting with each other, there's dynamics developing, bonds forming and plots going on. What starts as individual cases soon all comes together. No knots, no loose ends, no forgotten ties. Whatever line they start, they connect to the rest of the plot and bring it to an end. Whatever is left open is left so for a reason.
There is complexity in its simplicity, writers not aiming for more than their screetime could deliver and delivering what they could.

What threw me off initially is the comedy, since there's a lot more of it than I expected. But it's the good type of comedy. The one with situational comedy, witty banter, playing with the truth and with the viewers knowing more than the characters. There's no laughing about others, no play with shame or embarassment. It's simple jokes where nobody gets hurt.
Fair warning though to not make the mistake to think this is lighthearted, as the drama dips into several dark territories. It does so (mostly) with the necessary distance, respect and compassion and doesn't use it as an eyecatcher, but it's there, leading us to a nice message in the end.

The only thing bringing down my rating in the end is the fights. I don't like long fights, so it was nice to see them being kept simple and target-oriented. But because the setting was so simple, it didn't allow for neither unexpected outcomes nor unexpected ways to overcome struggles. The fights were solid. But they were basic, and for someone who doesn't enjoy fights a lot, there wasn't much entertainment to get from it.

TL;DR
Watch this if you want something super basic, but solid. Something that doesn't shy away from dark topics but doesn't delve into them, something with light comedy and a slight touch into heartwarming messages.
Don't watch this if you want something super complex, something heavily focused on fighting or fantasy. Also don't watch if you're scared of evil spirits.

If you expect this drama to do things just as well as full-length ones, you'll lose. But if you see it as the mini it is, it's one of the best you could watch out there.

It took me a week to finish this movie…

And that’s kind of all you need to know about it. It did not really carry the tension, had not one character I was rooting for or even wanted to survive, extremely simple premise, no real plot twist - nothing to truly get me hooked.

And I don’t even know what the movie wanted to tell me… Be careful what you wish for? Be content with what you have? If you hit, just run, or the curse will follow? Don’t be selfless? There was nothing truly cohesive about the lore or the story and the ending left too many questions unanswered.

I did enjoy the performances. No matter the role Kim Byung Chul always delivers. I also loved the practical make up on the old man - looked extremely creepy. On the other hand, the special effects were rather… questionable.

Sometimes I truly question what makes these rather well known actors take roles in these mediocre movies. Do they produce that much revenue? Because that’s the only logical reason.

Overall, hard pass. It just truly gave me nothing.

How Deep a love can be ?

How Deep Can Love Be?

Some love stories are not merely watched; they are felt. They slowly find their way into your heart and settle in a place from which there is no returning. My Dearest is one such story for me.

How deep can love truly be? How pure, how selfless, how boundless? Does love have a limit, or does it exist beyond all the boundaries the world has drawn around human lives? As I watched this story unfold, I found myself returning to the same thought again and again: perhaps the depth of love is simply impossible to measure in words.

This love feels like a beautiful poem, one in which every verse carries a sense of incompleteness, yet somehow finds a remarkable kind of wholeness within it. It is like a tiny drop of morning dew resting on a leaf, holding on for just a fleeting moment, yet carrying within itself the purity of an entire morning.

And perhaps the most extraordinary thing about this love is that it retains its purity even under the cruelest circumstances. When circumstances are merciless, when time is unkind, when life seems determined to keep two souls apart, and yet the same tenderness, devotion, and unwavering affection continue to exist in one's heart—perhaps that is what love, in its truest form, really means.

What a love. What an extraordinary, beautiful love!

A love that does not need to be loud to transform something deep within us. A love that does not constantly demand proof of its existence. A love so profound that words begin to feel inadequate, while even silence starts speaking an entire poem of its own.

Here, love is not merely the desire to be together. It is belonging to someone even in separation. It is retaining tenderness in the midst of pain. It is breaking again and again beneath the weight of time, distance, and circumstances, yet refusing to let those things completely erase what the heart continues to hold sacred.

The beauty of My Dearest lies not only in its love story but also in the feeling it leaves behind. It reminds us that love is not always synonymous with a happy ending. Sometimes, love is a struggle, a wait, a longing, a separation. Sometimes, it is the courage to keep one's heart pure and one's feelings sincere despite everything life chooses to take away.

Perhaps true love is that which manages to preserve a little morning light within itself, even in life's harshest circumstances—like a drop of dew that holds the reflection of the sky within it, untouched in spirit despite all the dust and darkness surrounding it.

Some stories come to an end, but the love within them never truly does. They remain in our hearts like a poem—quiet, beautiful, and eternal.

And for me, My Dearest is precisely that kind of poem. ❤️

Pure Enjoyment! Relish the experience with Wakako!

It’s incredible how just being present with the experiences of Wakako can really enhance the viewing of this drama. If you’re looking for a plot, there isn’t really one. The whole point is to relax and enjoy the experience. It is an experiential show, almost like a VR experience where all you have to do is be present with her and then it feels like you’re really there enjoying the food with her. You get to live as Wakako, as a local Japanese young woman and feel what it would be like to go into these places- the sights, the sounds, the dialogues, the tastes! If you’re distracted and playing games on your phone while watching in the background, you miss the beauty of this series. When I was truly present, I enjoyed each episode thoroughly. The Takoyaki party felt truly like I was there, and it was a delicious experience, as if I was having a girls night there with them and cooking and eating the takoyaki.

The dashimaki tamago episode (#7) was truly epic. The wonderful taste of the tamago made her happily dream of all the characters in the restaurant as if they were dancing to classical music. It was a true food high that I could practically taste the dish with her even though I’m not sure if I’ve had that particular dish before (maybe as a part of a Japanese breakfast set in Japan in the past but I wasn’t paying close enough attention). But I sure could taste it while watching this episode! It put a big smile on my face.

It’s funny how she (and many others in J dramas) toss French stuff into other cuisines. French influence in string in Japanese culture apparently- there’s not a single j drama where the love affair with France is hidden. Like “we’re gonna make it an Italian night!” And then whips out the Brie cheese for a “stylish snack.” Ahhh whatever it’s still a good time and she is very playful. But omg she drank a whole bottle of wine, then whiskey then two cans of beer. How is she still alive? I couldn’t even drink one of those. But I guess that’s what it means to live vicariously through Wakako- my altar ego who likes alcohol.

Do not make the mistake of watching the Korean remake- all of the beautiful presence and experiential magic was totally lost in nonsensical, meaningless, and unnecessary office drama.

Wakako Zake is such a simple series, but don’t underestimate the power of its experience. Be present with it, and you will understand. Truly one of a kind, and I had wonderful experiences and good times along with Wakako.

***I felt her characterization in the first season was okay, but in subsequent seasons Wakako gets more annoying with their childish behavior and trying too hard to be cute. It gets old when your whole personality is “I’m really cute aren’t I? Watch me do cute things like a child eager to grow up! Aren’t I cute now? Am I lovable now?” Yeah but you’re 26, remember?

Hard-Hitting Workplace Reality with the Perfect Blend of Romance, Growth, and Intensity

First Impressions: A Bleak Start at the Bottom
When I started episodes one and two, the drama gave me a genuinely depressing vibe. In my world, I am happy, but stepping into this drama felt like entering a world focused on making you feel unhappy. That was mainly because I was watching everything through the perspective of Tang Ying, our female lead. At the start, she is sitting right at the very bottom of the corporate food chain, taking all the hits.
By episode five, that struggle hits hard. You watch her do everything she can and give 100% of her effort, but she still doesn't get the results or recognition she deserves. It captures that exhausting, relatable feeling of putting your all into your work and coming up empty-handed.
Workplace Realism and Office Politics
The workplace rivalry and politics feel uncomfortably real. It isn’t clean or healthy competition; it portrays the toxic tactics people actually use in the real world. A clear example of this is her higher superior—the boss above both Tang Ying and her immediate supervisor. In the early episodes up to episode five, when her direct senior suddenly had to step away, Tang Ying was left working alone on a massive case. When problems inevitably arose, that senior boss diverted all the blame straight onto her.
Yet, as the show goes on, you realize he was also just doing his own work under pressure. The only reason it felt so brutal and unfair at first was that we were seeing everything through Tang Ying’s eyes—the perspective of someone stuck at the bottom of the food chain taking the brunt of every hit.
Main Leads: Natural Chemistry and Real Communication
Where the drama shines is the relationship between Tang Ying and Elvis's character (Xu Ziquan). Their dynamic progresses so naturally with this effortless, flirty banter back and forth. At first, Tang Ying assumes Elvis is just a playboy. He even admits that he used to be one, but makes it clear that around her, he is no longer that kind of person.
Their chemistry is top-tier—honestly, in Hindi the exact word for it is chummeshwari (absolute perfection). More importantly, they actually communicate. The drama highlights that you don't have to carry everything alone or stay bottled up inside yourself; you can have someone to lean on and support you. Between the advice Tang Ying’s sister gives her and the advice Elvis gets from his assistant as a married man—reminding them that having an open conversation is the only real choice—their relationship matures beautifully.
Lin Xinzi’s Arc and Learning Who to Depend On
The drama also delivers an important message through Tang Ying’s sister, Lin Xinzi: you need to choose the right person to lean on. Early on, Lin Xinzi depends emotionally on someone who turns out to be suffocatingly possessive—trying to control what she wears, even going as far as hiding her swimsuits. Watching Lin Xinzi break away, grow, and eventually find a healthy, beautifully built relationship by the end was one of the best character arcs in the show. The bond and honest advice between both sisters anchored the story really well.
Pacing, the Ending, and the "Food Chain" Metaphor
The pacing throughout was solid, and the ending wrapped up so well. It leaves you with a very realistic takeaway about career progression: things might start looking better as you rise up the food chain, but the higher you climb, the more resistance and harsh criticism you face.
It reminded me of a metaphor: an herbivore is born a vegetarian, a natural producer in its ecosystem. But if that herbivore forces itself to climb up the predatory food chain, it has to force itself to eat meat. Even if it survives, its health and body deteriorate because it is betraying its own nature. That is the warning this drama leaves you with—as you climb up in the corporate world, you risk losing who you fundamentally are if you aren't careful.
Overall, a mature, realistic, and beautifully executed drama.

Only I'm allowed to hate you.

As a criminal drama - good. As an office romance - jesus take the wheel. Just because two people of the same gender are interacting intimately on screen doesn't automatically mean it's good TV.

The acting is not... good. The most consistent is the meekness of Lee Chae Ha, while Ju (Kang) Tae Seon is all over the place (really can't do desperation and sadness). O Ja Hyeon was cringe, there's a way to do crazy, psychotic and unhinged that doesn't require constant laughing. Darling, you are not Joker.

This series feel like a potentially good criminal drama with a badly written in relationship. The story idea is good, but the script is fucking awful. Plotholes upon plotholes, string editing leaves you feeling like there are chunks of context missing, and, as in many BLs, the scenes are desolate as if the main characters are the only people in the world, more so, the only gay people in the world. It gives low budged feel, which it probably is, and I guess not many actors want to be associated with this industry. This would've gone so well if they paid more attention to fleshing out the mystery of who's-done-it, rather than splicing in that relationship as the main attraction. Those two aspects felt completely separate and not because they didn't make a big deal of the main couple being gay, which is the way these stories should be told, but because it wasn't a good or coherent enough story telling.

Every character on screen felt like a solo player, their relationships didn't matter, only their past did. I wouldn't call what the main couple had chemistry, as we like to call it. It was angry, sad and flat at the same time. The only part I liked was when they finally revealed who the son of the casino director and the police chief was. Predictable from his first very questionable remark and the writers did try to bury the lead with a red herring, but in the end that break from the nice persona to a broken, exploited child was quite good. He turned just like both of his parents, they must be so proud.

That first time kissing - so, that's assault. Jail,straight to jail. No rhyme or reason why anyone would take shit like that from someone they work for. Granted, Korea is notorious for bad work culture, bullying and toxic behaviour across the board, but this is as if all three were rolled into one big, fat, toxic, red flag. Going to your employee's home at night? Acting like an entitled asshole, choking and sexually assaulting them? Yeah, sure, that's totally normal. And the other guy acts as if it might as well have been a slap to the face or a push on a shoulder. How often does this actually happen for it to be portrayed as a behaviour one immediately doesn't consider chargeable? And, of course, the meek male lead instantly falls for the abusive boss, because the only way to survive in this harsh world in Stocholm Syndrome.

Raw and Unfiltered Emotions

The First Emotion I felt while watching was Sadness and Hopelessness. The movie didn't have the usual Glamourous lighting or attractive scenery but rather showed the Suffering of two souls with incurable by curable diseases.And I did know this was kinda based on the Real life couple who overcame their diseases. But what actually broke me was because when I watched this movie my father had a stroke and he is a chronic heart patient with less than 35 percentage EF. Thankfully he wasn't paralysed but kind of lost his voice. This Movie kinda showed my situation dealing with my father at that time. And even now he wasn't fully cured he is still can't speak properly but i am really thankful he is alive rn with me.

Now Why I did say that story is that because when they showed the frequent injection for dialysis and the fl doing everything to reduce the swelling and all and the pain and sufferings and Ml suffering with his condition saying he doesn't want to be in the ICU - that's what my dad said too, well not said but showed by signing. I cried when i saw that scene and the scene where they showed the emotional burden the patient feeling for their family. It was on Point. And i Hope No One ever goes through that alone.

It Was Sad with Sufferings but one can overcome it with hope with loving people together and even if they can't overcome it, they fight till the end.

A suprisingly good Mystery-investigative, suspense drama; With nice teamwork.

The drama opens with Luo Yunxi's character, Li Qing Yang, carefully crafting a wood-like puppet, intending to get involved in the widespread puppet-related murder cases. Eventually, he is taken as a suspect, frequently escapes the members of the Divine Constable Bureau, and ends up solving the case and catching the murderer with help from members of the Divine Constable Bureau (Meng Rui, Bai Zhen Zhu, and Yan Cheng).

Li Qing Yang wears a cheerful face, but actually has a dark, hidden past. He's the supposed fourth prince who died 17 years ago; finding out/investigating the truth about his death and exposing the crime helped him live through his days with his master while he was in poor health. Along his journey, he meets friends and family who make him want to truly live, at least for their sake.
Li Qing Yang is a smart character, and I mean "really, really smart". He's sensitive to clues, finds the slightest clue with a glance, keeps note of the slightest suspicious person around the murder, pieces together everything he and his teammate found/got, makes his deduction, and solves the case.
Luo Yun Xi was well suited for his character, adding natural humor and real warmth to Li Qing Yang, and his "rare" crying scene was truly emotional in addition to the buildup made. Li Qing Yang is Luo Yunxi's typical jianghua character, as it didn't differ much from his last role in Whispers of fate - wealthy, strong, secret past and illness that flares up instantly at the use of martial arts.

I loved their teamwork, and how they bring different clues/ideas/thinking to solve the case. My feelings are mixed about how Meng Rui, Zhen Zhu, and Yan Cheng became Divine Constables, which usually takes 100 years to become one, unless you solve an extremely strange case. I didn't feel any of them were smart enough to solve really strange cases; they had their specialty in both observing corpses and incredibly strong martial arts, and so what?! How did they become Divine Constable without being smart enough to catch the true culprit with evidence?! I should have at least gotten some flashbacks into how they became Divine Constable.

Meng Rui had more depth than the rest of the team, excluding Qing Yang. It was interesting seeing the lives of his family woven with the death of the fourth prince. Meng Rui has carried the pain of his family's death and his missing brother for 17 years, shaping him into someone cold and inexpressive, but when Qing Yang came into his life, warmth and affection peeked through the cracks. The scene where Qing Yang allowed Meng Rui to thrust his sword through him was one of the most emotionally tense parts of this drama. Their deep care for one another was really evident; Qing Yang let Meng Rui thrust through him to prevent him from entering a deranged state and also to bring him back to consciousness. While Meng Rui, in his almost deranged state, didn't strike Qing Yang vital spot, a deep part of his almost lost consciousness remembered who he was to him. The way they grew from enemies/suspicion to buddies who truly care is well cherished.

The playful dynamics between Qing Yang and his master were one of the funniest and most endearing parts of this drama, yet it was just heartwarming in a way, when you think the master always treated him at the cost of his inner energy, cared for him all these years, taught him everything he knew.....And Yet......it was all a stage act from 17 years ago; that twist hurt me deeply. His master rescued him 17 years ago, poisoned him with something incurable, sustained him for 17 years with his inner energy and a drug, taught him everything he knew, so he would return and become a puppet emperor serving the needs of the Liluo Kingdom.......when their confrontation came, I was soo heartbroken; it was clear at the end of his master's last breath that the 17 years together wasn't all an act; his master unconsciously grew deep love for him.

I enjoyed the mystery, suspense, and investigative part of this drama. It kept me clicking for another episode to see how they solve the cases/ to see the new cases that arise. I feel the cases were intriguing. But I wish they had explained more on why those stone/tablet always break when a case concerning the gods is solved, is it a supernatural phenomenon/ is it man-made?

Qing Yang and the Emperor deeply loved each other, but power/the throne/peace of the nation kept them from fully expressing their love. The decision the Emperor makes concerning Qing Yang (safety really hurts Qing Yang emotionally, but the emperor thinks about his throne and his people before thinking about how Qing Yang will feel. An emperor cannot truly express real love for his son; if not, that son becomes a target the emperor cannot forever protect- this was Qing Yang and the emperor's story. I was conflicted and heartbroken watching Qing Yang leave his father as he cried helplessly on the ground, in his blind state, when that was the last time he would ever see him. They should have at least resolved all their misunderstandings before his father passed away.

The reveal of Qing Yang being the Long-dead fourth prince was underwhelming, to say the least; his friends weren't even surprised, and it felt like everyone glossed over it like they already knew. A character had the audacity to say Meng Rui suspected.....like, since when was Meng Rui that smart to connect the dots, ughh.

The final confrontation with Liluo was really intense, even more than I imagined. I also didn't expect so many deaths/casualties from the Divine Constable Bureau. It was tragic watching them die in pain, making the ending bittersweet. To be honest, at some point after the many deaths, I thought Qing Yang would die because it seemed so, but I'm happy he was saved by Meng Rui. I liked Jiu Ying personality and also her development; I truly didn't expect she would partake in the last battle; she helped in her way.

Qing Yang illness and the Ode to Canglang really showed how much...Qing Yang and Meng Rui cared for each other. Qing Yang knew that Meng Rui could cure him at the cost of his cultivation, but he didn't want Meng Rui to suffer that; instead, he burnt the book of ode to Canglang, wanting to keep it hidden forever. By the end, when Qing Yang was about to die from the illness, Meng Rui gave all his inner energy to save his life, having found out recently that he cultivates the Ode to Canglang. Meng Rui remains unconscious till the end, not knowing whether he his either dead or alive.

I feel robbed, because I would have loved to see Meng Rui and Qing Yang meet once more before it ended, but things can't always go my way, arghh.

P.s If the first case doesn't convince you, give the second case a try. The first case was the least loved by me.


Thanks for reading
