Lusi is killing it, she's stunning as usual but it's only her and that guy from love like the galaxy. The others…
His name is Leo Wu. I just love Zhao Lu Si’s acting in this Xianxia. Obviously, there is a wide gap of experience between her and the actor who is playing the ML. However, what I love about this production… There is zero arrogance nor superiority in her acting when sharing her scenes with the ML.
love this drama Zhao lusi is killing it she was made for this role ml is ok and sml is made for his role he suits…
Zhao Lu Si is slaying it. I don’t know how many times I rewatch the scene where she is literally screaming… “Focus on your cultivation.” Her body… Her face… Her eyes… Her entire expression… Priceless! Simply priceless!
Did I already say that I love the FL. I love this FL.
My… My…! Zhao Lu Si has come a long way from her early casting of Chun Hua in “Love Better Than Immortality (2019)…” Annoyingly and repeatedly saying, “Xiao dàgē“ over and over and over again. Now, she can literally hold an entire production on her own. It is nice to have a ML… It is nice to have main couple… However, I would not miss him if he was not in the storyline.
The contrast is interesting how this show is loved in China and Internationally people hating on it for the most…
The storyline is interesting. Right now, the ML is downright useless but hopefully he will show some tremendous character growth soon… And I mean very soon… On the other hand, the FL is fantastic. She is holding the beginning of this entire Xianxia series without being annoying, rude, obnoxious, arrogant nor manipulative. I know that there would be some growth of character down the line with the ML; however, right now… I am fully invested in the FL.
Well… This might be the worst movie that I have watched from both Jung Woo Sung and Kim Nam Gil. And I thought “Steel Rain 2: Summit” was the worst from Jung Woo Sung.
The montage was so lame. What a waste of a great cast.
WL never said he'd reprise this role. In fact, he gave his blessing to the current lead which was very decent…
That is true. That is why I said… PS: If they had continued with the storyline from season 1 and had kept the same production value… I would have also agreed with Leo that Liu Hao Ran could have better suited for his replacement.
Indeed contrarily to some, i very much enjoyed season 1 with Leo. Also, it could be because I am very much biased and favorable when it comes to Leo.
Either way, because the production value for this adaptation is pretty much nonexistent and the storyline doesn’t follow the first season… I am actually OK that neither Leo nor Liu has their names connected with this mess of an adaptation. I just wish that they didn’t call this mess a sequel because it is most definitely not.
why did Tencent give Leo a hard time, as far as I know, he's had no controversies and only has praises for his…
Yeah… I do remember back then that there was some kind of conflict going on. I have to go back and search for it again. I can’t fully remember. But I do remember that Leo recommended Liu Hao Ran from Nirvana in Fire 2 for his replacement. I remember that I was sad about it; however, I thought that Liu Hao Ran was a pretty decent young actor.

No Leo didn’t. After it was confirmed that Fights Break Sphere 1 would have a sequel… Leo recommended the young actor, Liu Hao Ran, from Nirvana in Fire 2 for his replacement. It was all over the news back then… Where did you get that information from?

Although both leads are my favs i just can't carry on anymore. Chemistry is just lukewarm. ML got forced into…
Oh Prince Bo… Oh my… I loved his character. Contrarily to you, I actually never thought that he was manipulative. He was actually the only character from “The Wolf” that I fully loved. First, he was under the impression that the FL manipulated him until his fall at the beginning of the drama. And later, he was doing everything he could to protect her against his crazy adoptive father… Even, playing the sadistic villain to keep her safe. The FL character was the one that I did not like at all. I even thought the female fighter character that Bo survived in captivation with, was a better fit for him.
Although both leads are my favs i just can't carry on anymore. Chemistry is just lukewarm. ML got forced into…
Not for me. Whether if it was the FL or the ML written that way… Neither of them would have done it for me. I just don’t like manipulative characters. Example: “Good Bye, My Princess” The ML character had the same unlikable characteristics as this FL… I had the hardest time justifying his persona.
Although both leads are my favs i just can't carry on anymore. Chemistry is just lukewarm. ML got forced into…
That is why I utterly adore “General and I, “The Song of Glory,” “Lost Love in Times” and “The Princess Wei Young.” These are the female lead characters that I love. They are strong, intelligent and they have magnificent strategic minds. They don’t repeatedly manipulate people and their feelings for their own benefits. And their male leads counterparts are just as strong. They are no pushovers.
Although both leads are my favs i just can't carry on anymore. Chemistry is just lukewarm. ML got forced into…
As I said, I understand what their characters were trying to convey; however, I am not convinced by them. Usually if they don’t grab me by the very first episode… It is a drop from me. I only gave it 8 episodes because solely for XuXu. Call it that I always try to give him the benefit of the doubt.

I understand what they were trying to portray but what I get is childishness. They were doing exactly what we have seen in a million of other period dramas… They were playing at wars and politics… But to call it strategy… That is pushing it. Sun Tzu would be screaming “What the hell!” inside of his grave. Not as great as “Nirvana in Fire” nor “Joy of Life…” “The Blood of Youth” is a perfect recent example. That is what I call strategy. Not this one.

Anyway…
I am really proud of Zhao Lu Si.

She said “Why is he farting in someone else’s house? It stinks…”
Well said.
I love her character.

Oh well!
Leo is indeed known to be a nice and down earth person.
Hope he is actually that way… Not just for the lenses…
I would like to see that.
That is why I said…
PS: If they had continued with the storyline from season 1 and had kept the same production value… I would have also agreed with Leo that Liu Hao Ran could have better suited for his replacement.

I am having serious “Ever Night season 2” flashback…
“Ever Night 2” without Arthur.
And now, “Fights Break Sphere 2” without Leo.
Some things should have never been changed.
That is a massive NO for me.
Oh my… I loved his character.
Contrarily to you, I actually never thought that he was manipulative. He was actually the only character from “The Wolf” that I fully loved.

Yeah… These 2 are not doing it for me… Not ever.
If I see anything similar with better acting and better writing… I will definitely let you know.
Usually if they don’t grab me by the very first episode… It is a drop from me.
I only gave it 8 episodes because solely for XuXu.
Call it that I always try to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Their characters are not likable to me.
Really not sure if I would go back to continue it.
