I THINK THEY'RE GONNA POSTPONE THIS DRAMA TOO (like they did with Novoland: Eagle Flag).
Here's my reasoning. Until Canada released the CFO of Huawei who was illegally detained on request of the US, nothing that attempts to glorify Canada (Excellent Era's emblem resembles Canadian maple leaf flag) shall be show on China TV...
So, don't be surprise this drama does not pass China's censor board!
When I first heard of "Eagle Flag", I became worried. There's only one "Eagle Flag" in the whole world and that is the USA flag. Essentially, I thought the TITLE of this drama was trying to glorify the US of A. This the reason why the drama was pulled last min amidst the current trade war USA vs China. Pretty sure drama will be allowed to air once they changed the title's name...
After finishing this series , I can't understand the hate towards Long Qing . I prefer Long Qing over Ning Que…
+1. To me Long Quing is like Yang Kang of the CONDOR HEROES series while NingQue more like Guo Jing. Sure GJ gets the spotlight in the first story, but it's YK's son YG that reclaims the glory in the 2nd story...
The author of Condor Heroes loved GJ so much that only the bloodline of YK survived in the 3rd story... (Sarcasm implied)
One interesting theme in this drama - good guys vs bad guys. People who claim to be doing things for righteous…
Sometimes the good guys don't wear white. Sang Sang supposed to b the one that brings bout eternal darkness, even though she can summon light from her fingertip...
Be ready for a very unpopular opinion coming up...lost interest with this drama after about episode 25...the first…
Be glad u only suffered 25 eps. I had to wait till Ep 48 b4 I went WTF?!?!
I normally download dramas in HD then use subs from Subscene. Did that for Three Lives Three Worlds, Tribes and Empires, Nirvana in Fire 2.
I am glad I watched a blury version of Ever Night on Viki. It's not worthy of downloading... The only thing good bout EN was watching Fuzi eat all those delicacies. Everthing else meh boring generic cliche drama stuff...
On the contrary, I think it should be the most logical option for that period of time, given that they are not…
Not rape. The brilliance is Zhang Wuji doesn't meet Zhao Min till much later, ZZR is just a stand in. LHC doesn't meet RYY till much later, his junior "sister" is just a stand in...
The masterful writer doesn't let fate reveal itself to MC till the right moment. Author of EN is just a noob writer.
EMBARASSSING drama. Plot turns to crap at Ep47 (Viki version). I can see why Arthur Chen doesn't want to do S2. Dropped!
One of the things that separates newbie writers from legends like Jin Yong is that in JY stories the couples that share a childhood together never end up marrying each other. Or they got raped by another man. Its such a brilliant story device gives shock to the MC.
I never understood some the praises I read below. Just thought it was a crappy generic fantasy drama. Sang Sang not so pretty. MC acts like a wanton jerk most of the time.
They even lifted the storyline from Nirvana in Fire: Guy returns to the capital many years later to right the wrongs done on his tribe and get official pardon from the Emperor.
Everything just screams boring generic drama till episode 39 when the bad guy transferred his powers to the MC. Then everything clicked together. Like we actually appreciate why it had to be the MC. Too bad it took 39 episodes to set up for this scene.
Lol, AVirtualVoyage just released the first set of char posters here:https://www.avirtualvoyage.net/2018/04/maggie-jiang-shu-ying-li-yu-jie%e2%80%8b%e2%80%8b%e2%80%8b%e2%80%8b-lai-yi-and-more-join-the-kings-avatar-drama-version.html#more-24541It…
I've made a pictorial correlation/explanation here:
It looks like they've perfected the looks of Ye Xiu. Just dye Yang Yang's hair blond and u get Ken from StreetFighter. Same with Tang Rou (Sailor Mercury)'s short hair and Chen Guo (Sailor Jupiter)'s long pony tail, and also Luo Ji (Melvin)'s extra thick round glasses, and Qiao Yi Fan (The Moonlight Knight/Darien/Tuxedo Mask's twin brother)'s short cut-at-the-back hair style...
(P.S: Plz see my discussion thread in the MDL TKA forum titled "The King's Avatar is a spoof of Street Fighter, Sailor Moon, and Lord of the Rings!" for further clarifications.)
Does anyone have an Android device and want to experience online gaming like in TKA? Then I highly recommend Sword of Shadows on Google Play Store.
It's a Chinese MMORPG, but for the weird reason it's all in English!
I'm really liking it as it also plays like a "Tamagotchi egg" (you can level up your character while logged off -- just queue whatever it is you want to cultivate, then you log on again and find it's already done!)
Not to mention the breathtaking 3-D game levels and Chinese game designs. Reminds me of my trip to China recently...
BTW, this is a free-to-play RPG. Doesn't cost a penny to install nor play, and supported by optional in-game purchases.
I was surprised such games exist outside of China let alone with English dubbing and English texts. Really truly outstanding online game any TKA fan ought to check out!
That's just a placeholder for "we don't know when it will release, but we know it will be released sometime in 2018, so we'll just put the last day of the year as the release date, that way we will/can never be wrong."
Just forget the low rated review above! This amazing drama definitely deserves a 9+ in my opinion. Read more comments…
No don't forget my review... I gave T&E a 9.0 and also awarded it best C-drama seen to date... Although there are many potential candidates waiting to replace: The King's Avatar, Novoland: Eagle Flag, Ever Night, etc.

Don't see any of this brilliance in this drama...
