Best Xianxia that I have seen in a long time…
“Love between fairy and devil” has been the best show I’ve seen in a long time. The graphics are SO physically stunning, sometimes it’s breathtaking. The costumes are so beautiful, and have their own style unlike I’ve seen in other Xianxia. The fighting looks so awesome, my son loved when the dragon appeared. The music makes me want to keep turning up the TV, I’m sad I cannot find the opening theme song on YouTube yet. The humor is hilarious mostly because of Dylan Wang and Esthers acting, it’s not cheesy, and is so well done. The story is good and it’s pretty unique combining elements from other fantasy things to make up the “curse”. All in all it’s the first one I’ve seen in a long time that might match up to my all time favorite Xianxia, however only time will tell, so far I’m super enjoying every minute.Was this review helpful to you?
Would you be with someone who manipulates you for gain?
That’s basically the issue I had with show. The show itself is really good. I love the digital effects, I like the fairytales interwoven in the show. Music is really good, the male lead is good, the autistic brother is portrayed well, and there really are no annoying characters except for the female lead. Here is what I can’t get over. The female lead decides to like and capture this boy. Her motive from the very beginning is just because he doesn’t like her, she wants him. Although she had a rough childhood, you can tell that she was always given or was able to get what she wanted. She’s a spoiled brat. What’s worse is she manipulates everyone around the male lead to get her way. I don’t like that the story rewards her for that. I don’t like that the male lead falls for her with that attitude. Considering the male lead is a caring, giving, worn out individual because everyone takes from him. Why would he then get a girlfriend who’s so broken he is having to be, exactly what makes him exhausted in life. A caregiver. The male leads cannot be oblivious to that fact that in order to get what she wants, she will do literally anything. She even manipulates and uses his autistic brother to insert herself into the male leads life. What worse is that she achieves her goal in the story. According to the story even if you’re super broken in life, you don’t have to fix yourself, you just shamelessly do whatever it takes to get what you want, and it can be yours.Was this review helpful to you?
