THIS is THAT fantasy romance drama that makes you feel like you'll never like another one more
I've never seen a series with so much rewatch value in my life. I re-started to watch it immediately after finishing it and i enjoyed the beginning even more after knowing all that happens and understood everything better. I've watched it 3 times already.
I've also rarely seen a drama where the 2 main leads actually meet in the first episode. Everything happens fast, this drama never wastes a second, there are no skippable parts. The supporting characters have often complex backstories and their motivation and actions are truly well grounded.
The actors play wonderfully especially the three main leads, although for many people the female lead might seem annoying in the beginning, if one gets used to it, one discovers later how much she develops and progresses. I would say that she has the biggest character growth in the whole show. And her chemistry with the main lead is fantastic.
The world building, the different realms, the powers of the gods etc seemed to follow a logic and some rules (for example: the powers were based on different elements and the offsprings would inherit their form from one parent and the element of their nature and power from the other parent, etc) which gives a sort of structure to the whole power system, and is a very nice touch, that missed in Ten Miles of Peach Blossom for example. It makes all more believable and explains why some characters are stronger than others in a fight.
The music score for this show is beautiful, I often listen to it even now after many months of watching this series. It fits the story and the atmosphere perfectly. The Realms are beautifully portrayed, i think the Heaven Realm looked exactly how such a celestial majestic realm should look. Even the Demon realm was so different and special.. the Flower Realm was as beautiful as Paradise. In other words, the sets, costumes and overall production of this show is top notch (the CGI is not the best, but this is typical for C-fantasy dramas, so noone should have expectations there).
I definitely recommend this to everyone who wants to watch a beautiful and rich mythological fantastical love story between Gods, or simply who likes Chinese costume dramas with magic and martial arts fights.
