No Boundary (2021)

These are the kind of dramas that I love so much. The intrigue, the martial arts, the fantasy, the animation, the music, the set, the costumes, and the skilled actors and actresses with great skills. It kept me focused on every single episode. Wow, I am truly impressed with the storyline. Zhang Yi Shang (Duan Mu Cui) is excellent, want to see more of her, she plays a strong female leading role and I loved it. Darren Chen (Zhan Hong) is the reason why I watched this. I was impressed with Darren Chen in "Meteor Garden" that I had to watch more of him. I am happy that I did. Wang Yi Fei (Hong Luan) gave me a new perspective on her acting skills. My first impression of her in "Ashes of Love" was not that good but now I feel differently. Gu Zi Cheng (Wen Gu Wei Yu), I am feeling that some scenes were "cut". They need to make a drama on this character. I loved the animation of him being a dragon. This is a rewatch for me. I need to absorb the episodes.

Darren Chen and the other creepy guy...

I watch this drama because of Darren Chen, he was awesome in Sleuth of Ming Dynasty as magistrate. He always has the best smile and cutest face, I think beside Riley Wang, he's one of the cutest actor there is. I am not into super natural theme or super power immortal/devil kind of story line. I am sticking to this drama because Darren Chen worth to watch, well...I like him more as Tang Fan as an intelligent, chatty, childish, lanky, smiley, know nothing about martial art, and everybody's little brother. He's good at it...mirroring his personality. In this drama though he's cold demeanor, quite, respectful, upright, martial artist...25 years old that ripe to find a wife (encourage by his God-Mother). The actress is new, she's quite beautiful. The story is so so ....there're too much of visual effects that I am not fond of, there's one guy that's pretty creepy WenGu Wei Yu that got jealous with the relationship develop between Zhan Yan and Duanmu Cai. This creepy guy was always monitoring - watching Duanmu Cai although he's one of her people...with grumpy face, white robes, jealous, he's not on the best mood all the time. Darren Chen is a charmer, his sweet innocent smile hasn't change, his dimple decorates his cute face. Since he's a local hero, many match-makers try to get close to propose marriage from many local girls...too bad his heart's already belong to immortal Duanmu Cai. They shouldn't be in relationship because one is mortal guy and the other is immortal deity..but fallen in love is hard to deny. Relationship between MLs are on and off all the time...they love but trying to avoid each other - like the long last 20 episodes are getting their heart bruises. They're back 1000 years when the root of love debt calling, different background set - different supporting actors - different dimension. Expect season 2 because there isn't end of drama...

It is actually very nice. Not what I expected from the reviews.

Eyyy just wanna recommend "No Boundary". I wonder why the dramalist review said that the story is messy. Like I delayed watching this because of the reviews. It is really really really nice
* FL and ML is strong. No females are damsel in distress (sorry i dont like this trope especially for the leads)
* the story started with solving cases which is engaging.
* Minimal draggy scenes. Forgivable.
* The plot is really really nice as a whole ??. Though it has illogical storyline and loopholes.
*Some characters are complex.
I was only confuse with Wengu's character at the middle of watching and he is the weirdest one. Like his decision and way of thinking just doesn't makes sense at the middle eps. Maybe bec he is a demon and he thinks differently?
But the write ups isn't as bad as the ratings. For me.

Also the FL isn't familiar/popular but she did justice to the role. She is badass and amazing ? The actress for Hongluan btw is from Ashes of love. But in this drama, she is good. I even cried for her.

Excellent. Great male lead actor. He performed as well as he did in Love 020. Great plot and story line. It is the right length with the storyline focusing primarily on the main leads. Great no to have secondary couples which allows the storyline to flow more smoothly. Great female lead as well. Great, great, great, great,
