Incompetent Competence

He's coming out with another (movies?) I'm pretty sure where he plays a serial killer.

More Wuxia and Xianxia for me to indulge in. This summer has truly become China's in terms of shows and even anime.

They are actors people.. no matter how good their chemistry is its impossible for each good pair to work together in every project.

Heyyyyy.... so it did pull a Novoland on us!
(We need good stuff to watch...... China, you're making us wait for so long, too long for something good to watch)

postponed lmao

Early impressions:
Good story
Great characters and cast
CGI is hit or miss
but as always, like China, the green-screen stuff is pretty good
Romance just enough (for romance lovers and the opposite)
The secondary characters are done in a fair manner.
Music works
Camera angles are weird at times and stunning at others

I really like it, hopefully it will get subbed soon for all the non-mandarin people to enjoy.

(The youth in China basically only watch cartoons sadly enough). And mandarin takes so much time to learn, it's kinda frustrating (after my entire lifetime with the language, I still don't know how to write and barely read.)

China is simply putting way too many censors on stuff that barely anything good can air now.

It's really good and although some acting is cheesy at times, it fits the situation. The story has been well developed and it's very enticing and enjoyable to watch. Only downside so far is that the script does feel awkward sometimes (but once again, that could be due to my slight lack of mandarin), but you barely notice it. Watch it raw on maplestage : http://maplestage.com/show/%E5%A4%A7%E5%AE%8B%E5%B0%91%E5%B9%B4%E5%BF%97

Mixed with youth. Your main character is this Jack-of-all-trades type of guy, that uses his skills to survive (and free his brother). He then gets recruited in this group of young spies-to-be all with different skills. And so far, it's been quite bloody. Not as much as other dramas, but.. bloody and touching rather dark matters for what the show seems to be (there's already been like 5 betrayals layered on top of each other).

Need more Richard Wang.

I finally remember who he kinda looks like; Darren Wang (especially when they pull the cocky half-smile thing)

And how many years have we waited?

Can't wait--
But I do hope it isn't exactly the same as the anime, for I would like to see something new~

Agreed, but I'm still interested none than less--

Yea, don't know what they see wrong with it, the CGI is even better than most Chinese dramas. Oh well, Wu Lei is in my top 3 actors so I do wish he does well with his future dramas.

Season two of the anime comes out on August 16 I'm pretty sure.

Oh you're probably right about the Tiananmen subject.

(see it be last minute cancelled live Novoland even though we've waited 4 years for the sequel)

I love historical-styled dramas mixed with youth. Will watch--
