After finishing the drama, I might just immediately start a re-watch. and enjoy it relaxed without waiting for the updates. I just love this entire cast to the smallest role,
I am patiently waiting for subtitles, I am not giving Youku any more money, no matter how small the amount. I am glad, however, to see the rating raising, that means the ending was satisfactory. Looking forward to it, :)
As someone who didn't read the book, it is so much fun to try and follow this complex story. They are very subtle talking about the ones behind the curtain, but if you follow closely you can connect the dots. I think the most impactful for me was when that one officer said to Wang Miao how the humanity was lucky so far and how that is going to change. I also love how Shi Qiang's down-to-earth outlook motivated Wang Miao to mentally fight back. The moments with WM's family in ep. 5 were great. I can't wait to see more, but I have to space episodes a bit so I can follow and have time to thing about them.
Next week? It's not supposed to end till the end of the month according to MDL.
They are releasing approximately 10 episodes per week (two episodes Mon-Fri), I expect episode 30/31 by Friday, unless they start releasing only one episode instead of two after that (please, no), they are going to release all of them next week. We'll see... I suspect we'll have to suffer through one episode a day.
I am watching the number of episodes decrease and hate the fact that drama will end next week. It took me almost two years to find new Chinese drama to watch and it's already ending. ;_;
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
