bros I literally thought Mr. wang was GAY. I'm not the only one, right?

btw using r*** as a catalyst for character development is so bleh.

she really went into a coma from a stab wound to the abdomen for 6months?? I mean it was a huge butcher cleaver but damn wtf lol. like what was even the point?

really interesting story but this shouldn't be a 40 eps drama. maybe half the amount? I start skimming around ep 15 until ep 22 then just skipped to the last 2 eps.

it sounds soooo horrible, but I hope qiu min is successful in her "attempt". I can't see her character developing in a positive way; feels like one of those weak/victim characters that go scorched earth with really no valid reasons besides lashing out

idk but the women fashion in the show resembles those from Tang Dynasty.

nothing is confirmed yet. it was just a "reenactment" from what QY was thinking/accusing had happened. I do think someone did it to delay the marriage since if there's a death of an elder in the family the children have to mourn for 3yrs. (yuan long is sus since he was discussing to prevent the marriage right before the mom died)

only thing I'm confused about atm is why the emperor sent his eunuch to personally free the doctor and his daughter from the firewood department, it seemed to have led to a change of confession in court.

I don't think she "loves" XQ. she explained to LY that she wanted to be with XQ because he's the only one available that would accept her despite all her baggage (widow, etc). She describes XQ as a means to and end and it was acceptable to choose him because he treated her well.

We've seen her catching herself in thoughts thinking about LY at times. She never thought about XQ like that.

but yea, due to LY marriage agreement with QM, he pretty much got friend zoned by QY

yup, ancient cultures are quite oppressive towards women across the world. that still exists today in places with ancient beliefs.

sounded like hu rong's voice.
but idk wtf that rewind back to the beach is about lol... so confused

does this get good?
just finishing up ep 4, having a military background... I find all the training/tactical stuff so far pretty corny for a supposedly "elite" group lol

alright idc how this turns out but I'm going to watch the entire thing just because she drank toilet water in the 1st ep lmao.

um she definitely looks a lot cuter with her hair up. also, she's an athlete type of girl who likes to have her hair tied up and out of the way..

yea the anime portrayed the honey trap a lot better. Su Mo was full on trapping and it was only bai ying who fell in love thus breaking the seal, and he didn't realize he genuinely liked/love bai ying until after/as she jumped. it was then that he shed a tear turning into a pearl as it fell towards the falling bai ying.

the drama made Su Mo too conscious of his feelings and decision makings during the honey trap which made the revelation during the jump kinda lacking. they tried to make it a simple "love story" but it really wasn't, it was a bit more complicated than that.

I like this show.
not sure how closely the donghua follows the source novel in terms of scene by scene but this live action moved things around quite a bit compared to the donghua.
I think they were attempting to create a sort of love that spans different lifetimes type of vibe, but it doesn't seem like there was enough source material for that type of thing. So, when they did it the way they did in this drama... it felt lacking like some of the people are saying. The past events should've been a quick flashback or narrated prologue even.

as of ep 10, no.

The story starts in the present time (him talking to the little girl outside the cave). It jumps back in time to tell the story 100 years ago. It's not time traveling lol just the timeline of the story is being shifted.

yea I didn't get how she got caught up in the fake sales scandal. lol she was only a flight attendant and was only liu yu fan's gf (apparently wife in the last ep?)

bro that was not a flashback. that was literally their first "date" in present time lol. they never dated or even met in the past before zhuo rui arrived in beijing.

xfn: wow so many swords, the attack must be really powerful
sword god: when you get to this level, it's all the same whether it's 1 or many
xfn: so why'd you take so many?
sword god: bc it looks domineering

lol it's all about style. gotta look cool

I've only read what this season covered so idk. but I saw someone in the comments say all of xu xiao's adopted sons were brainwashed to be loyal. if that's true I guess there won't be betrayal lol

not sure If I remember correctly but I thought hong xi xiang in his past life was the founder of longhu sect...?

yes I recognize the kid actor lol.
