You dropped it a week ago and still feel the need to come comment on it. I guess it IS still dwelling somewhere in your mind after all.
We each like what we like and dislike what we dislike. If you want to go pick a rating and decide watching a drama or movie based only on the ratings given by other people, you'll probably be disappointed more than satisfied most of the time.
Want some more TTEOTM ratings? 8.9 on MDL (with some down-raters who didn't even watch it but rated based on actor biases and/or in order to keep other dramas in focus), 9.6 on viki, 9 on imdb, 9.8 on google. 8 days first on datawin, broke 2.5 four times already. And it's only halfway done.
For myself, I don't care what other people think. I'll watch and decide for myself. But I do find it funny some people take time out of their precious day just to come be negative on things they assert they do not care about in the least. Yeah, sure :D
i don't see the chemistry between YBC and XL it just falls flat ??
YBC stole XL's love threads, she doesn't love anyone but herself. I'd be a wonder to see them actually click together, since the character is so duplicitous. I quite like it that they (the actors) don't act as if they're actually closer, because they are not.
On the other hand, I quite liked Deng Wei's acting this episode - he looked tired, haggard, heartbroken, in despair. Yes, that was good. Too bad he's probably going to exit the stage on the left, pursued by a bear, soon-ish :D
Although I wish she would've asked him for an explanation on why he killed those people, the flashbacks that she…
This drama is a Chinese version of a story about inventing a time-travel device, going back in time and deciding to kill young Hitler... What will it change? Is it moral to kill an (yet) innocent man? Will it stop the destruction we're blaming him for in history?
But it's a love story too - nobody's in love with Hitler so the choice would probably be much easier in such a situation. My problem with LSS's choice is the betrayal of trust...
Nah, he's perfect for Chu WanNing, so glad they had him play WanNing of the Night Sky instead :D And if they ever…
Because I'm obsessed with CWN LOL and if I only could pick one danmei role for LYX to play... it would be CWN. He has just the right grace and fragility and hidden strength to best show who CWN is. I am SO glad for whoever made the casting choices in 2ha - LYX and CFY are just picture perfect for those roles.
I just hope they DO release that drama, though I do fear they very much whitewashed it... (I mean, can you imagine the production including ANY of the actual risky scenes?!) But even as a not-really-danmei drama, the story itself will be worth it. And CWN and TXJ both onscreen at the same time... ooooooh!
Now I do hope they won't release it IMMEDIATELY after TTEOTM, because I want 2ha to make the strongest impact it can, and it has a chance to be the best danmei ever... Here's hoping.
Although I wish she would've asked him for an explanation on why he killed those people, the flashbacks that she…
HE didn't, though. It was the Devil God. And he's NOT the Devil God (yet).
And she's playing with his emotions, making him believe she's in love with him, this, a man who NEVER had anyone on his corner, never had someone to trust, never been loved before.
It's the worst betrayal ever.
I get it, she's trying to stop a catastrophe (since the Devil God didn't just kill her family, he will kill EVERYbody), but still... this person she's lying to isn't the killer.
this is unrelated but i definitely see Xie Lian from Heaven's Official Blessing in Luo Yunxi
Nah, he's perfect for Chu WanNing, so glad they had him play WanNing of the Night Sky instead :D And if they ever release it, it's going to be FIRE! Chen FeiYu also fits MoRan perfectly, this would be a match made in heaven *hearteyes*
TTJ making an ENTRANCE - well, there's a king :DI was afraid they were done with epic fight scenes, so glad they…
I loved how TTJ gave Xiao Lin more than one chance - before the fight, after the fight... but XL can't just give it up by himself since he's caught in the filial relationship with his father. Which father has absolutely zero qualms into asking for YBC to the capitol to hold pretty much as a hostage against XL betraying him. He thinks he's sooo subtle.
The poor crow, LOL - four flights in one day, and then TTJ going - WHY is she killing my crow?! Then almost immediately, WHY isn't she killing my crow and sending more letters? :D
They're like dumb and dumber or love.
"Pick a spot to be buried in" - SOOOO ROMANTIC! SOOOOO SWOONY!! :D :D :D
I guess demon-inclined minds are a bit... different.
And he gave her fireflies and the stars... while she's gathering the tools of his killing. WAKE UP TTJ!!!!
I was very pleased with an ep on Sunday, but now there's only one ep on Monday I'm not so sure any more T_T
I was afraid they were done with epic fight scenes, so glad they proved me wrong!
This drama should come with a warning LOL - no crows were harmed in the making of this series. We don't guarantee anything for geese :D
Edit: wait, now that I think about it... YXW slayed a demonic crow trying to "protect" TTJ from them (not that he needed it). And then he absorbed them all LOL.
I guess no animal (demonic or not) is safe from a (maybe) Devil God's wrath.
Wait. I forgot. How did Wen Qing die? Did she die together with the Wen elders? I think I didn't see her hanged…
WoH really made the censors into fools, LOL.
Everybody says WQ and WN were killed and burned - that's why WWX is so surprised when WN comes when he's playing the flute trying to attract some fierce corpses to help him. In the novel, it's mentioned more than once, so you can't miss it.
Haha, HuaiSang was a surprise for anyone who hadn't read the novel before watching the drama :D But he is there in the very first episode, with his patterned coat (that LWJ later cuts up by the Nie Clan tombs, after the past flashback ends), and his infamous fan (WWX even remarks on the fan and remembers NHS is cherishing it a lot, since it was something related to his brother MingJue.)
There were clues... but NHS is sneaky :D
There is no ambiguous relationship between WWX and Jiang Cheng - JC is mainly jealous, frustrated and always kind of mad at WWX and his easy relationships with people, LWJ in particular (but you might have noticed how easy WWX would make friends, and how awkward JC is about it.) And JC loves him as a brother indeed, and wants to be able to care and help him, but it's rather hard to do something like that for someone who finds trouble so easy, like WWX, LOL.
As for the WWX and LWJ relationship... LWJ is an introvert AND he was raised to be a block of ice, whereas WWX is a burning flame at all times (even when he's in the wrong, LOL). It's a fire and ice story. There were a few more open loving moments in the novel and in the donghua, but very much of the drama was faithful to the novel and the best intimate scenes are left to the ending. The novel, Mo Dao Zu Shi (Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation) is focused on the story first, and the romance second,.
Anyway, glad you gave it a chance. If you want to see more, there's an animation series (a donghua) based on the novel, and obviously the novel itself :D
Wait. I forgot. How did Wen Qing die? Did she die together with the Wen elders? I think I didn't see her hanged…
She and Wen Ning went to give themselves up when the Jin Clan promised they'd leave the rest and WWX alone. Then the Jin Clan went ahead and killed her and burned her body (offscreen) and gave Wen Ning over to Meng Yao and Xue Yang to put the nails in his head.
So she wasn't there with the rest of the Wen Clan.
(Actually, the rest of the Wen Clan weren't there either, LOL, except in the drama. In the novel, they all die in the Burial Mounds and even come back later to help in another battle. The donghua tells a bit about it but changes it too, so it's not exactly as in the novel either.)
PS If TU is innocent bromance, LOL, indeed the censors did their job. I'd love to see some men looking at each other like LWJ is looking at WWX though and say it's just bromance :D
1. The FL entered the dragon's dream. But is the dream the past (prior to the point where they discovered the…
Point 2 was mentioned before by someone who had read the novel (I'm waiting for SL TL to be finished, because the MTL isn't great).
Point 3 makes sense - because if he was still TTJ, he would definitely remember LSS (and her talismans, and her weapons, and her everything, because that's how xianxia works usually LOL). It's not mentioned HER face being changed when she went to the past, so I think her and YXW's faces are the same.
Future-era DG says something like "it's you" addressing LSS, but nothing like what a spurned lover she had tried to kill would act like, more like, "oh, you're also here, another unimportant fly to swat".
So on point 3 it's more of a guess, but on the others, I'm pretty sure. Of course the drama isn't over yet, there's time to switch some things around.
1. The FL entered the dragon's dream. But is the dream the past (prior to the point where they discovered the…
1. It's not the past, because the God of Time didn't remember her in particular, she's just the Chosen One to break the curse (maybe). That past did happen, just not to them, but the dragon (Ming Ye) and the Ancient Devil God and all the rest.
2. The Ancient Devil God's face is TTJ's face because TTJ is set for the current reincarnation of the ADG. He's a sacrifice from the YiYue tribe for that purpose.
3. It's the same dragon but now he's gone. The evil ADG will be the future DG after TTJ dies with the Devil Bone inside him.
4. The Gods have to cultivate and spend tens of thousands of years to gather power. The ADG gets it served from eating up smaller devils, and from the hatred and other evil feelings of mankind. He can't lose basically.

Then again, we'll just have to wait and see.
TTJ and YXW obviously, but also YBC pretending to care for Xiao Lin while she's calculating his worth in saving HER...
I now wonder how the fox will end up betraying General Ye, according to the rules of this story if she doesn't it'll be a wonder.
The poor crow, LOL - four flights in one day, and then TTJ going - WHY is she killing my crow?! Then almost immediately, WHY isn't she killing my crow and sending more letters? :D
