And finished.
Probably one of the best sisterly love dramas I have seen yet. I want to say I liked the ending, but I was hoping for something different. Overall, it was a superb drama. The acting was wonderful and I haven't ever watched these actors before, so now I am going to check out any of their other dramas. The writing, directing, acting, costumes, and the cinematography were absolutely wonderful. I even enjoyed the little bits of comedy put in here and there.

My only negative is I think there were to many side couples. I wish they had stayed mainly on the two main couples' story, probably would have been a bit fewer episodes that way. There were a few inconsistencies, and a few plot holes. A couple of scenes were a bit draggy, but I was quite surprised at how much I enjoyed the whole drama. I also thought the dialogue was a bit off in the last episode (I don't know if that was cause I was watching it on Viki or if it was like that anyway).

I understand why a lot of people said it should have ended at the beginning of episode 33. Honestly, I am glad they continued it, (albeit, not a fan of ending) it cleaned up a lot of stories and actually I was on the edge of my seat for most of mid 33 and on.

Just when you thought it was over and there would be peace, someone stupid has to do something stupid.

Ye Tan looks straight up one vindictive bad ass in episode 36. I love the look of revenge.

I have only ever been moved to tears by two other actresses. Zhao LuSi in "Who Rules the World" and Li Qin in "Tears in Heaven". Seriously, it takes a lot for me to cry over a scene, but just finished the scene with Man Man's death and Landy Li has now become the 3rd person to bring tears to my eyes (and honestly I didn't really like the Man Man character), such a huge moving scene. If the rest of this series is going to become dark, not sure if I want to continue.

So I am currently on episode 33, When did the twins stop feeling each other's pain? Did I miss something? In the middle of episode 33, this is the spot I am at right now, where the girls are fighting that one guy (I forget his name).... Ye Tan gets hit really hard in the stomach by him and coughs up blood, although Qing Kui is fine and doesn't seem to have any effects from that.

Question in spoiler:

Love your article, very well written. Princess Agents was probably the best open ending drama I have ever watched. I hate that we will never see an end but I think leaving it open ended lets us develop our own conclusion.

My biggest complaint is if/and or when they were to ever do a "season 2" of any of these dramas is the casting. IMO, if you replace key members of the cast for a next season (as what is being said with JOL 2) you won't get that same feeling or enjoyment with the original cast. I would rather not see a season 2 of something if you replace to many, especially the main leads. I felt that way when they made Eternal Love of Dream, although they touted it basically as a retelling of the story between Bai Feng Jiu and Emperor Dong Hua, it had quite a few cast changes that were quite noticeable. I know it is more about the continuation of story, but what draws audiences is the acting as well and for some characters they are just irreplaceable.

Thank you for that info, now I have no excuses and will watch it soon. Probably after I finish this.

Ty for the suggestions. I haven't ever watched Goodbye, My Princess (although it is on my "to watch" list), I don't like sad endings, that is why I keep putting it off. I have heard it is really good though. I am also currently watching Romance of a Twin Flower and everyone says PXR is a really good actress as well and I know she is GMP.

I was waiting til it finished to start this and I am glad I did. I don't think I could wait for new episodes. I am currently on episode 12. Although, I am not really familiar with the any of the leads works. I am absolutely loving this. I haven't been this excited about a xianxia drama since TMOPB. I am now going to have to check out these actors works. They are so good and this story is amazing. I love it. Looking to the remaining episodes, hope it continues on this pace. Loving it!!

I absolutely loved JJL. I watched it initially because of Jin Han. He is such a great actor, after watching him in Our Glamorous Time and Twisted Fate of Love. Although, I hated him in The Princess Wei Young, well his character anyway. (I also forget he is in Princess Agents as well)

They do the "comedy" parts so well, that they end up being cute and funny at the same time and they flow so well in the story. I have to say that is probably my favorite parts of this.

This right here. OMG!! I kept thinking these same thoughts while I am watching her through these whole episodes. I agree they seem to do this with every single person who does this. So irritating.
I honestly don't think, after watching the previews and the trailers, that she is really "time traveled" into Sang Yu's body. I have feeling that they are really going to be twins or maybe doppelganger, I just caught a few little hints of stuff that makes me think that.

My husband loves Isekai animes and I absolutely loathe them. I really can't get into them at all.

Yes!! It was so funny.

Ok General Tao is hilarious. Is he some kind of masochist? Oh and Ma Ke's character seems really creepy (like I want to fast forward his parts cause he is so creepy). You can so tell he is definitely not on the good team.

I thought so, usually when the dubbing is done well you can't tell, but for some reason it seems so obvious in this or maybe I have watched so many dramas I am now able to see it more, lol.

I have to agree with you on a lot of aspects. The story is ok, the FL is great imo. I do agree there seem to be so many unknown plotholes, a bit perplexing, maybe it will all be explained in future episodes. I love Ryan Ding's acting, but his character here seems aggravating to say the least.

I am glad I didn't know that synopsis before hand, I might not have watched this. I don't like "time travel" dramas. I really don't usually like body swapping either. This drama seems a little fun, but it has to be because of the actors. The main FL seems to not even remember she came from the future, if that is what is going to be the premise of this as well. She seems to not remember anything. I do wonder why do they do so many females that get transported into bodies of other females in the past. It seems to be an overused premise.

I was wondering if that was the case. They seem to use that premise a lot when they change the female's personality in the costume dramas. I wonder why they say "twin" on the synopsis.
