I do wish we could see more growth montages from her, training etc, true. The thing about the forcing her decisions…
Yeah there are inconsistencies but I don't think it's sooo big (other than finding Qianqian, that was a joke lol). The drama set the bar up so high in the beginning that now that it's fallen quite a bit, it's alarmed people. But I still think the show is doing really well. And I have a feeling with these mistakes she's made, they didn't let them slide. They have to show us growth in the last 10 episodes. So I'm not disappointed... YET. For the pig squad, they were with Chang Yu, so they must've snuck out with her like how she snuck out. Yeah let's hope they redeem themselves in the next arc.
My heart was in shambles when she was crying on the field. Great performance from her and her hooligans. Also when confiding to grand princess and Xie Zheng, it sounded so helpless. Love Tian Xi Wei.
I do hope we see more growth so she doesn't feel this way. I can ALLOW her insane skills, killing two very strong characters in the span of a few episodes, without any "real" training montage. We are supposed to believe her sparring with Xie Zheng and General He is enough. The drama is relying soley on the training she got from her father, but we never saw that. I would be HAPPY if they had more training moments.
The thing is, I think her fights on the battle field are her "training montages." Only from her mistakes she makes here, Xie Wu getting hurt for her, stopping Li Huai'an from fighting, will she know what to do in the future. But this is only the case IF the drama actually does this. But I really don't mind like a 45 second training sequence with some badass music lol.
Well, it seems like there was a major drop-off in the scriptwriting and character development in the last few…
I do wish we could see more growth montages from her, training etc, true. The thing about the forcing her decisions on others, I also think that's wrong. But they do address it by Li Huai'an confronting her. I don't think they'd put that there for no reason. Maybe later on, we'll see her allow someone to die on the battlefield, as their last wish.
I also thought her escaping was weird lol, too convenient, could've happened in a more interesting way. Apparently it was different in the novel. I ALSO was confused how the hooligans got out. Like they were conscripted but they were at that rock quarry somehow. After that though, I can see how they followed her. They didn't join the army, they were part of people that brought up the grain so they were allowed to leave along with her.
This guy... he's to pussy to fight Xie Zheng, but when he finds out a girl killed his dad, he wants revenge lol but that girl is none other than Fan Chang Yu, NO LESS than Xie Zheng
I'm glad they addressed Chang Yu knocking Li Huai'an out as a problem. She was right about everything she said, he was too injured, he would've died a senseless death. I respect the sentiment. But.... it was not her place.
The background for the politics was so confusing in episode 29, Qimin's origin, but they went over it a couple times in the episode so it definitely helped... and I think I get it now. So there were two princes? Chengde (crown prince), and brother Changxin? Qimin is actually the crown prince son, but has taken over Sui Yuan Hai name, who was Changxin's real son that died in the fire along with the crown princess, his mom? Why did his mom put his face in the fire though? A little clarity there please!
By the way... did Chang Yu find Qianqian that conveniently in the novel LOL like she walked out a bush and wow we found her! That saved us a hell of a lot of time. I feel like it would've been interesting to see some plan, but then again Chang Yu isn't the smartest cookie lol.
I love how they gave the whole episode for Chang Yu to decide to participate in the war. It's not an easy decision. She may be bad-ass, has killed a general, but she has done what he came for. She came only to find Changning, done, protect Yan Zheng, done, find Qianqian, done. Why else should she stay? Words and encouragement from people around her, they all led her to make the decision, and I enjoyed the pacing. Grand tutor tao, General He, The gongs... and a final "off you go" from Qianqian.
I also find interesting what Grand Tutor Tao. You don't see this kind of talk in other dramas, they are all so positive, save the people. Here, he spoke about sacrifices. For the greater good. I remember people being upset earlier about Xie Zheng's plan to flood tha canyon, killing the whole opposition army, along with some of his own + civilians. It's cruel, but realistic. They kinda seem to sugarcoat it, but they are honest about it. I just really like everything about this episode!
That's fair, it isn't for everyone. I LOVED love in the clouds and the double, but not really the other two. For…
I wouldn't give up, maybe pick up once everything is aired. I think in these last 12 episodes, the plot will finally come in. But read the comments and see, we always here lol. Yes, I can see how it feels confusing with ML, also seeing how he has done barely anything in this military arc. But his growth is more subtle than FLs, her's is physical, harder to miss, his is emotional. Ofc, I enjoy seeing different opinions, makes for interesting conversations, moments of enlightenment. Hope to see you in the comment section again lol.

oh wow really.. I guess it isn't for you. The drama isn't very plot-heavy compared to the ones you've listed. Like in LITC, girl is trying to get that cure, in the Double, she's hellbent on revenge... this one is more character heavy. I also enjoy plot-heavy shows, but this one is different for me because I think they just did the characters so well. I can see how it's not as interesting for you! It is slow in plot.
why is a strange question.... is it not obvious lol you said it yourself!
That's the typa stuff we'd see in dramas where you have unrealistic characters, poor writing, a tropey drama just to feed people's desires. Do you think you could love someone who loves you if they kill someone just caused they annoyed him? Someone that traps you in their home, is abusive to you and your child, physically and mentally, but all in the name of love? If you do, then nothing I can say would help you understand.
Even if she thought to love him despite ALL the horrible things about him., in reality, he would never change. He has goals, desires, that her love will not stop him from achieving...
Yes, Chang Yu isn't a rock! She will melt eventually when he says all of the right things! I can understand though Xie Zheng's need to be reassured, girl ran away immediately lol but she also said all the right things today.
Loved their healthy communication. He loves her so much and wants to protect her, but if he does that, she won't be the Chang Yu he loves. He respects her wishes, but will still secretly protect her lol. Both sides are happy.
