Timeless love between a demon lord and an elf.
This special lays down the groundwork for an intriguing story about a demon lord pining to be remembered by an elf she loves dearly. But how did they end up in this situation?Part 1 introduces a question from the elf's current perspective and then the demon lord takes us back to their past in Part 2 to provide the answer. Each part is shot and narrated in such a way where the actors dub lines over their scenes, yet the characters don't always move their mouths to speak even though they are talking to each other. Despite the many blurred lines this direction creates, it doesn't feel like any part of the story has been lost. Instead, it comes across as an interesting stylistic choice that suits the music video/compilation aesthetic of this fast-paced, short-form content.
If you find yourself in the mood for a vaguely wuxia-themed fantasy, this one has a plot that is easy to follow and beautiful scenes to momentarily lose yourself in. Just be prepared to end the video wanting more to sink your teeth into.
