So far so good, but it's taking me some time to adjust to the new characters, voices, and tone of the show. It feels more lighthearted somehow and not as dark. I especially am having a difficult time with Ning Que's new voice. In the first season, he had the tone of someone who had to grow up too soon, in order to survive and keep Sang Sang alive. His voice was serious, hard, rough, and jaded. Even in the light moments, he managed to sound slightly restrained, unless he was only with Sang Sang or with people he trusted. The voice in this one is just light and fluffy, like there is not a care in the world and it seems very strange to me. Sang Sang is on the verge of dying yet he sounds like everything is fine. There is no sound of worry or that something is upsetting him in the back of his mind while he talks to other people. I'm also surprised that Fu Zi is also more like a jokester. He had few words in the first season, but they carried weight and he was able to be funny with his words and actions without being overtly emphatic. Similar to the new Emperor, just a complete change. And everyone's hairstyle also seems more fluffy. lol
