Dropped like a hot potato
I don't know about you guys but when that DREAM ARC showed up I was like "what the hell is even happening?". The main story is still confusing then you gave me another one to what? To divulge what if they are in good's side? What's more depressing is that they AGAIN GOT INTO AN ARRANGED MARRIAGE. You do not do that to love couples 2x. Can they not be in love naturally? Him saving her or something? So that he and she falls in love naturally? But wth you went with the arranged marriage theme AGAIN. Lol. So boring. Dropped.Was this review helpful to you?

the end of my sanity runs so thin
If I'm being honest, I am watching this show because of Luo Yunxi. I really hoped I would see him as Chu Wanning for now.. but this is what I get for now so I have to live with it.This show has a lot of similarities to the one I wish I was watching, but looking past that I can see a lot of things that are convoluted and messed up about the story. There are an overwhelming amount of 10/10 reviews so I am rating this more realistically. I am being more harsh because so many people just say 10/10.
So its not bad. The costumes are gorgeous, the sets are gorgeous. Its really good looking. At times the CGI is over ambitious. I realize I am not like the many many others that are applauding it. It is way too much whenever it is there, it is like a bad marvel movie. I get it is the heavenly realm or immortal realm or whatever, but still- the amount of disbelief I can overlook is a lot- and it goes over that bar by a large margin. The CGI is CGI, if I can tell by that point it takes me out of the story. The half of the first episode is hard to watch because of the over saturation of the CGI. It is a huge battle and Luo Yunxi's demon god character is overpowered. This drama is just overproduced. I wish at some point someone anywhere would have told them to stop. I should have saw this coming with the posters for this show (the photoshop is horrendous.. why is there hair floating, Luo Yunxi's hand...) also I kid you not, they reuse shots.. and they freeze shots as if they don't have the material.
That's ok. They set it up so I hate him and he is irredeemable. He killed Bai Lu's characters whole clan (she has like three names so forgive me, I call her Bai Lu). Her father dies in front of her eyes and she is taken back in time to Demon Lord not being demon Lord so she can kill him...
This is where I have a problem. He is this dictator that kills anyone for power. He wiped out several races for power, and its fine it isn't explained why he wants that yet. I like the idea of seeing why he becomes bad and his life is honestly so pathetic that I don't blame him for being upset. It is just underwhelming that Bai Lu is sympathizing with him? He killed her whole family but she is so into this new life. The thing I am having a hard time digesting is that the life isn't even hers. I don't know why she cares so much, and if it is because she is nice than I think that is dumb. I'm sorry. She comes back to kill him, but is taking her time for some evil bone- but in the meantime she is sympathizing? The whole killing several races trumps over whatever he is crying about or getting beaten over. This show right there is off, the plot holes of her being the person in the first place to go back in time to kill him. Main character energy I like, but this is just too much.
It was because she was the only one who wasn't dead. I wish someone less easily swayed was there instead. So in the end when she wishes that she didn't sympathize and has her moment, I don't care. I just think she is so so so dumb. It is a whole romance story, but that is my problem. I get it is based off a book, but if other dramas have to change their narrative to make sense - why can't this one?
It would be a million times better if the narrative was changed. Like have Demon Lord not kill her family, change it to minutes before to show that he is about to but is conflicted. Then I would be ok with her sympathizing because of his pause. Or maybe cut out the romance. Honestly this show caters to the audience, to hopeless romantics. What is with China and romanticizing toxic relationships.
Luo Yunxi gets abused by Bai Lu in the previous life, but then she's nice for a few days and he wants to stay with her? It is Stockholm syndrome I swear. Both sides of knowing they are going to get together make me uncomfortable. There are stories that do the whole being evil but being human better. Luo Yunxi pre demon lord is established to have no feelings- so that's another plot hole? I am watching and getting frustrated by the absurdity of all these plot holes. So for that I rate it like I did.
The acting is very good. The costumes are good.. the story is something I can't get into because it is another drama that is yet again falling into the deep romance. I wish stories could be more gritty and stick with it. It is a shame because it is like there is a guy and a girl leading then in China they have to fall in love. Even if that is the worst possible decision for both of the characters.
I’m officially dropping after the multiple plot lines of drugging characters and sleeping together. There is a word for that- and it’s sickening. This drama glorifies the whole idea of that and it’s like they are trying to have it pass because the girl did it to the guy .. it’s flashy its- offensive and spreads the wrong messages. This show is unaware and I can’t buy into their love. Across all the different timelines or universes or lifetimes. It’s toxic and I refuse it. I could write a several page essay and it’s a shame. I wanted to finish this one but I’m done.
Summing it up it is way too much. Everything it too much and it’s not balanced. Maybe it’s good at the end but at this point I wasted 10 hours. That’s a lot and I’m not wasting 30 more

I WANT AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS RANKING
Every time, i cannot really understand why the ranking become so low from the first episodes. This is completely unfair not only for this drama but also for much more that i have noticed. Mydramalist have to give access only for the final assessment. Please stop unfairly rating a drama when its plot hasn't even started yet. By what criteria has this rating been made? I really can't understand it's ridiculous. Τhe application should definitely be improved and not let the user set a score until the completion of viewing a work. How much more so when in the morning his score was 8.7 and in the evening it fell to 8.3.Please write down your reasons ,because I seriously don't understand them. ITS RIDICULOUS!!!!!

Frustrating but good
The story was good. What I couldn't stand in this drama was the unecessary misunderstandings, the never learning from mistakes, the lack of communication on all levels possible, the blaming EVERYTHING on one person based on stereotypes and never doing any form of investigation to make sure you're punishing the correct person even though this is the heavenly realm which should believe in "innocent until proven guilty".There were several points in the drama where I thought this will all go to shit and I'll just cry in the corner because of the sheer stupidy of the FL but sometimes she manages to redeem herself without me noticing and by the time I notice I go back to saying the same thing because she doesn't really learn untill the last 5 eps. I do like her character she doesn't let people trample on her and doesn't like conflict. (Biased cuz I like the actress)
The ML has the best character development in the entire world.
Conclusion: Well written very frustrating story with a bittersweet ending but from my perspective it was a happy ending. To each their own.
SPOILER AHEAD------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All the characters I loved perished, new characters were introduced at around ep 30 onwards I was confused af and dissapointed. The one character I held most hatred towards, died TWICE and brought me so much happiness has returned but this time I no longer hated her which lead to more confusion.

This is one of the best xianxia drama I have watched in the recent years!
The first episode was so typical of xianxia drama and I was struggling to finish watching it. I also did not particularly fancy the cover page of the drama (on Netflix) which shows TJJ’s face only. But I was so thankful I didn’t give up as the drama turned out to be so good! I was captivated by the lead actor Luo Yun Xi’s acting of the character TJJ/ MY and the Denon lord. Also very impressed by Chen Du Ling as YBC (I hated her when she did all the evil things) and Deng Wei as XL. Bai Lu also brought out the character of YXW pretty well. Just the acting by the actors and actresses make the drama worth watching. There were some illogical parts and very obvious villain characters which make some parts of the story predictable but these are quite minor and I would still rate the story as good and coherent. The CGI, customs and OST are great too. However, thought the music could be better, e.g specific ost / remixes ost to support specific scenes, like what was done well in Love like the Galaxy.Was this review helpful to you?
still on episode 14
hear me out, I love this cdraa!!!, if you enjoyed and was immersed with lost you forever,you’ll definitely like this one. My feels, love, emotions for till the end of the moon is beyond the love, feels, and emotions I had with lost you forever. I can’t put into words exactly, but by episode 3 I was instantly hooked, whirl wind of emotions, one minute I’m laughing, having butterflies on my stomach, weeping, in anger. so many emotions with this series, it’s that good! I should know because I am quite picky & very hard to please but I really love this series from acting, to the cast, well except for the elder sister she gets into my nerves lol you’ll have to watch it to know what I’m pertaining too wink*Was this review helpful to you?
One of best xianxia dramas.
This drama is a visually stunning and emotionally intense Chinese fantasy drama, blending elements of romance, power struggles, and dark fantasy. The story is set in a world ruled by demonic forces, where humanity faces extinction, and the female lead plays a key role in trying to turn the tide.The plot is complex, with multiple timelines and deep character arcs, which keeps the audience hooked as the story unfolds. The lead actors, Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu, deliver compelling performances, with excellent chemistry and character development that explores themes of love, sacrifice, and destiny.
The cinematography is a standout, with beautiful sets, intricate costumes, and impressive CGI that brings the fantastical elements to life. The soundtrack also adds to the immersive experience, heightening the emotional weight of key moments.
However, the drama can feel a bit slow-paced at times, particularly in the middle episodes, with some plotlines feeling drawn out. That said, the emotional payoff and high-stakes narrative make it a captivating watch for fans of the fantasy genre.

A very entertaining story
I have watched this drama twice and loved it each time. Generally I can move on from shows but I keep finding myself going back to Till the End of the Moon edits. If you have read the novel and are expecting the same thing from the show, although there are certain scenes that are the same and although the premise is basically the same, they are very different, which I assume is due to censorship. If you plan to watch I also recommend taking into consideration if you can take unrealistic stuff seriously because I know people who found the whole thing funny and cringy because they couldn’t take it seriously. I happen to love taking things seriously though so this became and remains one of my favorite dramas.Was this review helpful to you?

Um dos melhores Cdramas que eu já vi.
Quando eu comecei a ver eu jurava que ia ser apenas o romance de um Deus Demoníaco e uma garota aleatória, mas na verdade eles se aproximaram quando o Deus demoníaco é só um mortal fraco que é maltratado por todo mundo.A protagonista feminina (Li Susu / Ye Xiwu) é uma personagem realmente muito empática e destemida, confesso que em muitas cenas você sente raiva dela porque acompanhou todo o processo do Tantai Jin se apaixonando por ela, enquanto ela no início só pensava em mata-lo, mas seu pai confiou nela para fazer isso e até foi morto pelo Deus Demoníaco (Tantai Jin), mesmo assim ela confio que ele poderia se tornar uma pessoa boa, já que o passado de Tantai Jin era extremamente triste, sua mãe morreu, seu pai o abandonou, quem o cuidou também traiu ele, sua esposa até então maltratava ele e o batia todas as noites, o bichinho literalmente nasceu pra sofrer.
De verdade, a única cena que eu tive um ódio absurdo da protagonista foi na cena que ela queria dar algo para Tantai Jin desmaiar e ela conseguir salvar Xiaolin, faz sentido apenas se pensarmos na personalidade da personagem, mas se pensarmos na missão dela ao vir pro passado e no tempo que ela tinha para fazer isso não faz sentido algum ela sair do foco de sua missão.
Tantai Jin é um personagem que de início pensamos que nasceu para ser maldoso, mas que na verdade, como mortal, era apenas um homem sofrido e que parece ingênuo (só parece, pq o plot dele só ter fingido que trancou com Xiwu provou que ingênuo é algo que ele não é), o desenvolvimento do personagem foi ótimo e a história do por quê que ele virou o Deus demoníaco foi muito bem detalhado e ótima, o fato de que Susu fez tudo certinho para que Tantai Jin se tornasse o Deus demoníaco me fez pausar a série é olhar para o teto por uns 10 minutos.

An Honest Series Review
This is a high-budget drama boasting exceptional cinematography and effects. Frankly, it proved challenging for me to complete, spanning a three-month duration, and my overall sentiment leaned more towards frustration than satisfaction. While the drama's quality is not the issue, my struggle to persevere stemmed from the actions of the female lead character.I acknowledge her reluctance to risk falling in love with the devilish male lead, yet her choices appeared to inadvertently contribute to his descent into darkness. The male lead's singular flaw, an inability to feel love, is understandable, but he manages to develop genuine affection for the female lead despite her questionable actions. Rather than harboring animosity towards the female lead, I recognize that her character was portrayed in this light, and I empathize with her caution given the devil's role in her family's tragedy.
The primary deficiency I observe lies in the realm of communication. Other characters in the narrative fall into either the category of annoyance or likability, forming the crux of my verdict. The acting, particularly by the male and female leads, stands out as top-notch. They adeptly convey the readers' sense of annoyance and frustration. In conclusion, while the drama is commendable, I would hesitate to recommend it to those seeking a portrayal of a healthy relationship due to the evident lack of effective communication among the characters.

FL x ML who was born as and made into a villain
The show has a complex Fl and ML. The ML became evil b/c of his evil bone that made him evil without salvation. However, he gave into this evil because of the abuzz he faced throughout his ENTIRE life. The FL goes back in time to remedy his destruction and evil. The story is never dry and features action and romance. The relationship can be a bit abusive towards the end however this is b/c the ML is messing with the big bad god and sacrificing himself which leads to internally battle this big bad god that can CONTROL him. Also, he says that no one ever is loyal with him but there is the support character that is loyal to him but is relatively new and was not significant as the other ppl who left him at the time. My biggest gripe is that it does not follow the novel which makes the ML more ruthless and shows the side of him that is inconsiderate and makes heartbreaking scenes even more impactful. I also wish it showed more of the happy ending and was not cut off so quick. I do not think there will be a season 2 b/c I have not seen as second book of it mentioned, however maybe the ending will come later but it is not likely.About the season: Till the End of the moon had scenes cut to meet China’s requirements

**My existence for your death**
GOSH! This drama was a rollercoaster ride of emotions, I even thought it would have a happy ending during the last 30+ episodes but boy was I robbed!! ? This drama has got to be my favourite so far, and I would have loved it even more if it didn't have disappointing plots that could have been handled better. ( Like the misunderstanding scene where Ye Xiwu was controlled by Tantai Jin because he thought she wanted to poison him, IF ONLY they communicated better on that part man ? that's prolly why it led to such a disaster ) However, all and all, great story that is quite different from most which I really really enjoyed, I've rewatched this a few times already and I'm planning on watching it every year on my Birthday so this memory won't erase from my mind. ?Was this review helpful to you?
