Black Lotus

Honestly same

The cdrama drought this year has been unbearable. Please release this already!

Yay I'm excited that this will be a similar role to Zhao Yao. That was her best character imo. I haven't felt that same attachment to any of her other roles since The Legends.

Ugh when is this coming out

Love Li Qin in another badass role!

Can someone spoil the ending for me please

CDL proving she can be both the villain and the FL. Her acting is top notch. ZHY and her mother are carrying this series so hard!

She brings a certain type of rage to her characters that I wish most actresses could commit to. ZHY is now officially my spirit animal when it comes to cold blooded revenge and it's so satisfying! Wonderful acting!

Well said!

Could someone explain the ending?

They've infantilized her character so much, it feels icky. Making her put on the baby voice and just acting like a toddler. I would have rather that she had all her memories when she got her human form back and slowly got attached to the human world and learned how to love instead of learning how to be an adult first. It's so draggy and nonsensical and making me miss their present day characters.

I'm seeing nothing of their epic love in the past arc. It's getting way too draggy. I wanted more of feisty MXL going up against the Demon Lord, not this!

It's actually so rare that I find a xianxia with a cast that I love and a story that is truly engaging. Not to mention that everyone is pulling their weight in the acting department! Even the side characters get the appropriate screen time needed to make us care about their story. SZN was a delight in TTEOM and I'm so glad she's getting more recognition. Girl is putting in the work to make MXL feel unique and fun, not like most typical xianxia FLs who are annoying. VZ is always eye candy for sure. His role here is kind of similar to Song of the Moon but that drama had terrible pacing and direction IMO.

She shot up to my top 3 faves along with Zhou Ye. Can't wait to see her in more historical dramas!

I feel like I barely get to see the leads together before they get separated and one of them is in a life or death situation.

I agree but it's just a shame that the production and editing feels so low budget. The drama deserves much better to tell the story it wants to tell without so many shortcuts. The weird kneeling scenes and the ML's constantly changing wig are sometimes so distracting to me.

Agreed. It's refreshing that her characterization is consistent.

It's a shame that the only good female character is the FL. Every single other woman in this drama is shrill and annoying.

I absolutely love the main leads here but can't stand everyone else 😂. ML is super affectionate and gentle. It's such a nice change from other dramas.

Ugh you're right. They keep switching it back and forth. It's so distracting!
