Chinese Paladin 4 (2024)

Aventuras y amistad

Esta historia empezó un poco lenta, pero estuvo entretenida, Tianhe era un chico sencillo, inocente y amable, que lastimosamente sufrió mucho en la vida, pero también creció y aprendió a lo largo de su viaje, especialmente al lado de sus amigos que siempre lo acompañaron, Lingsha era una chica alegre, algo traviesa, pero con gran corazón que a pesar del destino al que estaba ligada, siempre veía el lado positivo de la vida y sus amigos, Ziying y Mengli también crecieron junto a ellos, se apoyaron mutuamente, a pesar de todos los obstáculos y problemas que se le presentaban a lo largo de su camino.

En todo momento nuestros protagonistas iban aprendiendo nuevas lecciones y enfrentadose a diversos peligros, y aunque la batalla final estaba siendo épica y despiadada, siento que estuvo muy sacado de la manga que una diosa se llevará mágicamente a los villanos qué en todo el drama demostraron ser poderosos, manipulando e imponiendose ante los demás personajes. Además no me gustó el final, dejo muchas cosas en el aire y sinceramente Tianhe ya había sufrido demasiado, había sido humillado injustamente por muchos, a pesar de ser un chico bondadoso, atento y solidario que siempre ponía por delante el bienestar de los demás al propio y termino ciego y sin el amor de su vida, tampoco aclararon que paso con Lingsha, si vivió muchos años a su lado o sí al fin falleció joven. Sus amigos Mengli y Ziying tuvieron un "buen" final y al menos acompañaron a Tianhe en su partida, pero en realidad no se veían felices, simplemente estaban cumpliendo el rol que les habían hecho asumir, pero sinceramente a pesar de que eran grandes personas, no pude conectar completamente con ellos, así que no me molesto mucho lo que les pasó.

En general es un drama entretenido, pero con un final algo decepcionante para mí, pero al menos me gustó conocer las aventuras que vivieron a lo largo de su viaje y el apoyo mutuo que se dieron.

Surprisingly entertaining, give it a try.

I just kinda feel the need to say this; maybe try rating a movie or a drama after you actually watched a few episodes.

Honestly, the sole reason I am watching this drama because of CZY― and that being said, I had no idea what to expect. In the first few episodes, there are indeed a lot of things to grasp, like who is who, how their 'world' works, the name of the sects and all that, but I think it was always like that with fantasy drama.

As the story goes, I found myself genuinely coalesce with the drama. It was somehow heartwarming to see the ML easily bemused by every little things he saw outside of Qingluan Peak. While people might say his character was rather childish, I think it was exactly what to expect from someone who grew up in isolation and never met anyone else except his father and the pig demon.

The interactions between the ML and FL also so funny to watch. One is sly and cunning, meanwhile the other one is kind yet naive and speaks whatever on his mind out loud. And their friendship evolves, I can't wait to see their character development!

Also, for the CGI, I think it was kind of decent. The fighting scenes were fine too. There was nothing big that bothers me so far. I hope it gets better!

[UPDATES AFTER FINISHED WATCHING.]

For this drama, I am kind of relieved that the journey has managed to steer clear of disappointment. (Though there are, of course, room for some improvements.)

But well, I could say, it's akin to the pride of a parent witnessing the growth of my children. Every second is a joy as I savor the unfolding story, relishing the arcs and development of each character. Every obstacle and setback that they encountered served as a tool― shaping the four main leads and their friendships into something beautiful. And even though their friendship might seem almost too perfect, I can't help but adore watching their dynamics. Where I could possibly find friends as genuine and supportive as them in real life? :[

Throughout the entire watching experience, not once did I feel the need to skip any part or conversation, as there were no unnecessary fillers. Every dialogue held significance for the plot. However, I must confess, the temptation to fast-forward arose during scenes featuring the infuriating villains who never failed to make my blood boil. (Side eyeing Su Yao and particular sect leaders as I type.)

(Here goes some small complains.)
To be entirely honest, I believe adding two or more episodes would have been perfect for this drama. There were certain aspects that left me puzzled. I personally believe it was essential to provide more details about what transpired after the great war. The abrupt one hundred-year time skip felt somewhat cruel, leaving me yearning for more insight into Lingsha's final moments with Tianhe― despite the inner conflict about my own emotional strength to witness it, a part of me still desired that closure. Also, I'm curious about how Tianhe lost his sight. Was it related to the divine bow? The connection remains unclear to me.

Towards the last few episodes, the CGI noticeably declined from the impressive quality seen at the beginning of the story. The fighting scenes, unfortunately, felt somehow rushed. I think, a bit more attention to details and time devoted to these aspects would have enhanced the overall watching experience.

In conclusion, it was a truly memorable journey. Zheyuan once again proving his acting prowess, leaving me in awe. His emotional performances drew me in completely, evoking my own tears and smiles in sync with his. While it was my first time watching the other three main leads in a drama, they portrayed their characters exceptionally well. And not to forget, the soundtracks have found a permanent spot on my playlist. Whenever these songs play, I can't resist replaying scenes in my mind. (Forgive me for the emotional indulgence.)
