You might need to repost the first one, it says video unavailable on my end, maybe it's just me.
This is such a beautiful drama. There is so much to appreciate about it.

yep. i hope Xu Kai doesn't give her an opportunity in ABAY

The reason the main leads take the spotlight is that the entire drama is centered around their conflicts of interest. The drama is heavy on their relationship to highlight how two people with such different values and way of thinking can work together and ultimately fall in love. Their relationship is the stronghold of the drama, without which there is no story to tell. To me, there is more real-life mature interactions between the couple than you normally find in an idol romance. The characters are deeper than what you see on the surface. If viewer just want to see brainless romance, then WOL is not their cup of tea. The relationship is quite complex, complicated, and deep, and acting is so natural, leaves the viewer feeling like they are watching real-life couple.

SAF6 to me feels more like watching a play on stage than your usual idol drama, which is why the casting and acting shined through. It is a refreshing experience.

hover your mouse over the rating 7.8 at the top of the page, it shows breakdown.
the dropped has gone back down to 3.74. It means roughly for every 8.5, there are two 1's, that means more 1's and 2's recently diluting it, most likely more 1's. If you're going to do this, why even bother with a 2, just go for a 1 for maximum impact.

Dropped ratings typically goes up over time. WOL 5.59 to 6.24 (Xu Kai haters), SOKP 2.98 to 4.33 and AJTL 6.21 to 6.92. AJTL had a ending that shocked its viewers so the dropped did go down but eventually recovered, but SAF6 has no shocking ending. There is nothing about SAF6 that would cause viewers who has been watching to change their ratings dramatically. Low ratings below a 7 are usually given by passersby who never really watched the drama.

some say this drama is more of a "real" drama than the usual "idol" drama, a true work of art, so it was destined to "not be cool", which makes it more polarizing

The airing is done but the % of completions is only 7.1%. Are viewers not updating their ratings to completed? The age group rating has declined to 8.13 today.

this adaptation will be more appreciated as time goes by because there will never be another one like it ever again. it's amazing what they did with it given the constraints of time, money, and inexperienced director who did a good job overall. The cast and acting made up for the deficits.

The world is a 9-year closed loop of time and space - as a game fan, I am willing to claim the drama change this time.

"Praying for the Present Dynasty" failed to keep the name of Sword and Fairy Six for some historical reasons, but it is far more respectful of the original work than some fairy dramas with the name of Sword and Fairy, and it can be said that it is THE ONLY WORK THAT RESTORES the essence of the original in the 20-year drama reform history of Sword and Fairy Game.

What is the essence & core core of the fairy sword? If one word sums up the core proposition of the fairy sword series, it is "FATE". This is a super large group of elephants with a thickness of nearly 30 years, recording the life-seeking path of countless large and small people. Among them, there are three religions and nine streams in the market, descendants of gods and demons with a background against the sky, sons of families who are proficient in literature and ink, and Jianghu Ronin whose background is a mystery, spanning all identity classes. The Sword and Fairy series uses nine stand-alone game works to outline the complex proposition of "fate" through records from all angles. She has never been a "thug growth history" with private goods in some dramas, let alone a "great love" that pretends to be profound, and the so-called "chivalry" personally believes that it is an externalization of destiny.

In the past 30 years, the IP of Fairy Sword itself has also grown with the changes of the times and the creative team, and by the generation of Xianliu, the pleasure of Edgeworth has been completely shattered, replaced by the most realistic story in the history of the series, and it can also be said to be the story CLOSEST TO THE PERSPECTIVE OF ORDINARY PEOPLE in the whole series. She doesn't think that God has any innate superiority over man, nor does she think that ordinary people must realize their value through the leap of ability & identity. The power of mortals is small, and the precision of planning and the firmness of the mind can also be compared to the gods, relatively speaking, the gods can indulge in the warmth of the world and fall into the mortal world without regrets.

For example, my empathy for Ju Shifang lasted from the game to the play. The evasive personality of the drama version of Shifang has weakened, and at the beginning of the game, he even dared to talk to himself as a "big hero" in emo, and the drama version of Shifang released a lot. He declared the concept of heroism to his teammates in Linyang Road, and he was a kind of young critic hero, and the initial emotional germination of Shuo Xuan came from this. But what happened in the future made him realize that the real hero is not easy to be, and force, courage, and credibility are indispensable. Such a little person, who was coerced into the chaotic world of demons, was not a powerful person until he died, and he confessed to Shuo Xuan forever. After his death, Shifang finally became a "big hero" in the world's mouth, but his long-cherished wish came true and the world was a little more impermanent.

Lu Bansuo's second creation can be described as a STROKE OF GENIUS, no matter what position, the pursuit of "heroes" has always been grounded, pinned on some daily life things. Similar examples such as Shuangyue's egg noodles, Luo's twin paintings, Han's embroidered hibiscus trees, and conch seas in the clear sea are all the same.

Another thing that makes me empathize with is the drama version of Bian Luohuan that many fans of the original book are not interested in, but I think THE DRAMA VERSION HAS A DEEPER EXCAVATION OF BIAN. The drama version does not have the letter of the eldest brother, and Bian knew his fate three years ago. For three years, he helped Shuangyue to bond Ridu, and at the same time watched himself fall into infernal purgatory step by step. For everything he once cherished, he became more and more nostalgic and unwilling, but when the verdict came, he still calmly took off his mask and faced his fate in style. THE ACTOR'S RENDITION GOES FAR BEYOND THE SCRIPT – three years ago, three years later, with and without a mask are completely different states. The image of the Holy Father of Bai Yueguang in the game is greatly enriched in the play, becoming the real "soul male protagonist" who is full of arcs. (Bian's emotional line personally thinks that it has basically no effect on Bian, but it can be seen that it was written in a hurry, and the presentation effect is "vulgar", and there is a problem with the plot ratio, see the next drama review for details).

There are also many examples, such as the grassroots male protagonist who was unwilling to leave in the end after three ups and downs on the way to find his life, such as the Jing'an NPC who "is strong for the mother" in the Yueqi game DLC "World Furnace", such as the ancient divine beast Kunpeng who was torn apart in maternal love & responsibility & delusion, and the Han embroidery master and apprentice who fought against the way of heaven with the body of a mortal. The six dramas dig a lot of things on the basis of the original work, many of which seem to be original strokes of genius, and are also based on the unique penmanship of Sword and Fairy Six, it is such a DEEP RESTORATION THAT MAKES EACH CHARACTER SHINE, and in turn, such a second creation based on the logic and technique of the original work further interprets the theme and core of Sword and Fairy Six.

She doesn't talk about changing her life against the sky, let alone saying that fate is difficult to violate, because of the existence of a closed loop, because of the disparity between friends and enemies, because of the responsibility of guarding, "choice under fate" is the theme. The drama and the game give a common answer, you can't stand still, you must actively go to your fate, even if the result is not satisfactory, there is no regret.

History is an established fact, and when there is an opportunity, we cannot change it, we can only promote it, but we can change it in the future, and it is not impossible to use enough force to go against the track of heaven to make it embark on another path.

"Pray for the Future" is the same as "The Legend of Sword and Fairy VI", it is DESTINED NOT TO BE A COOL DRAMA that the contemporary sinking market is keen on, and countless details will be missed when you look at the past again, although the drama version has made some changes to cater to the market, but the general style is still consistent with the game. I saw someone say that restoration doesn't mean it's good-looking, so I'm here to take a stand. For such a profound story as the fairy sword series, The active pursuit of restoration is a minimum of respect, Only respect can make a good script, It is possible to be really good-looking, For now, The game plot of the domestic Three Swords is still a state of dimensionality reduction and blow to the Xianxia ancient puppet book of internal entertainment, The exploration and excavation of the Xianxia theme is also much deeper than that of contemporary fairy puppets。 A highly restored game reform script is an absolutely SCARCE resource for domestic entertainment and even the cultural market.

Of course, many people watch dramas just to have a good time, and they don't think about anything, this is a matter of personal choice, so don't criticize too much here, let's spend it in their own eyes. In short, please trust your own aesthetics.

Talking about restoration, I might as well talk about what I personally think is the deepest adaptation.

The two tell the same story, but the second taste is completely different. Some people say that the six dramas are the game's "parallel world dream version of the same humanities", but I think it's more like a "closed-loop world phased same humanities". There is an intrinsic evolutionary relationship, which is equivalent to the 20 and 30 years of life.

I think of a fitting analogy. "Praying for the Present Dynasty" and "Fairy Sword Six" are very similar to the drama version of Yue Jinchao and Bian Luohuan. The latter passed through the 9-year gap of the fog soul, and he went to Longtan with reluctance and regret to break everything he had, trying to reconstruct a new story, pinning his unfinished mission and hope, but in the end, he ended up with the same path under the traction of his soul and mission. (Who would have thought that 9 years later, the situation of the two in and out of the play will be so similar?) By the way, with some of my "private goods", "Yue Jinchao" is a person, but also a slogan or a blessing.) The two people of Chao Bian are just two stages of the process of "Yue Jinchao", and it is very worthless to argue about one person and two people to belittle Yue Jinchao or elevate Bian Luohuan!)

"Sword and Fairy Six" is a maverick high-level suspense drama in the series, with strong realism and irony, and she is never a work that makes you dream. This world is oppressive and gloomy, full of ghosts in the human heart, and the Soul Enlightenment cult takes advantage of the weakness of human nature to expand wildly. Shuangyue left Wuyan Village in the poor mountains and bad waters, and wandered in this river and lake for three years. The few friends I met were full of gray personalities, or disguised virgins, or world-weary birthday stars, or autistic warriors, or cowardly good people, this large group of portraits is full of dark crawling conditions, some people even grow in the negative feedback of each other, but the friendship they have developed over a long time is precious, this is the most real and strong friendship at this time. With all their strength and countless reversals, the protagonist group saved the world as villains, and in the end some people were misunderstood, some were remembered, and some were forgotten. In such an atmosphere, the last Jing'an storyteller and people don't know each other, just like two slapsticks, this ending seems to be HE, you also know that there is still a chance when you meet, but it is so depressed that people can't breathe.

"Praying for the Present Dynasty" appropriately softens the sharp plot and character of "Sword and Fairy Six", so that she is no longer a heavy and depressing tragedy, but a tragedy full of hope and warmth. In the world of the drama version, the color of the building has become brighter, Wuyan Village has become a paradise, the team has let go of their guard early, Mingxiu no longer slaps people, and even called out "Shifang" very affectionately on Jing'an's boat, and the two quickly reconciled after the plot of the main altar. Zhengwu League is no longer a nasty decency, Qiyuanzong is no longer even a nasty villain, the people in the streets and alleys know exactly what they want, and the "Ming Master" is undoubtedly the public enemy of the whole people. Shuangyue and the protagonist group harvested love and growth in the fireworks in the world, and later after the half-day tour of Jing'an after the life story was revealed, Shuangyue firmly established the idea of protecting the common people in the peaceful fireworks. Even though the ending is a look at each other without knowing each other, but it doesn't feel bleak and miserable, sweet songs sound, dandelions float up, and the audience has begun to imagine the days after the reunion of the new "Shuangyue", whether it is six or sixteen years, there is still hope for the encounter.

Mu Hibiscus's genius is also suitable for the Ming embroidery of the original book and the drama version, but the "Instant Lamp" DLC and "Samshang Embroidery" are exclusive to the game version of Ming embroidery, she keeps all her tears and sorrows to herself, and looks at the whole world with a more cold, sharp and rational gaze.

"Wouldn't it be nice not to be bound by prophecy for the rest of your life. ”

"After crying, I have the strength to go on. Some mountains are difficult to climb because the person who can give you courage is your mountain, but it is also for that person, no matter how bruised we fall, no matter how ugly we climb, we must climb that mountain. ”

"Life and death, which is more important, which is happy and which is bitter, everyone has their own conclusion in their hearts. You think life is precious, maybe in her opinion, if it is impossible to see you at this time, then the suffering of life is far better than death. ”

"You don't have to put on a posture that only you are the most pitiful, you are never the only one who has lost your loved ones, constantly hurting yourself to force Wanchen to appear, but relying on him to value you. That being the case, you should know that every time you hurt yourself, you are hurting her. Do you really care about him? In my opinion, you are just obsessed with playing the tragic woman who is burdened by the world, and in essence you are just a despicable villain who entertains herself. You don't care about Wan Gongzi, and you don't deserve him. ”

(I originally used the spirit lantern to see my mother, but I have never seen her, she has probably already entered reincarnation), and Master, Master, I know that I will never see "Gu Hanjiang" again, even if it is to force me forward, you will definitely not be nostalgic for the world, give me a reason to move forward. Although you are a gentle person, as a master, you are stricter than anyone else. I'm going to live well, and one day, I'll see you again, definitely. The deceased is gone, the living are long, Master, you will definitely say so, right?"

Many people say that the Chaobian Prayer Triangle is the biggest adaptation of the six dramas, and I think the change of tone is. But there is nothing to blame, the audience of dramas and games is different after all, and the creative environment is also very different, whether it is the rationality of Xianliu or the sensibility of the six dramas, the entire story of the six generations is precious. For me, some changesIt is also a wonderful experience to be able to see the B side of the same story, and "Praying for the Future" gives this forgotten IP of Sword and Fairy Six a second life.

The works of two different fields in the 9-year period walk at both ends of the closed loop of time and space, and the moment of collision is an unspeakable tragic fate, I don't know if it is a swan song.

I HOPE THAT THE SIX DRAMAS (SAF6) WILL BE SEEN BY MORE PEOPLE, and I also hope that one day there will be a more relaxed creative environment, so that the light of "Sword and Fairy Six" can fully bloom.

The path is different, and I have no regrets.

Another gamer detail and insightful review, full detailed article in spoiler below.
" The only work that restores the essence of the original in the 20-year drama reform history of Sword and Fairy Game. If one word sums up the core proposition of the fairy sword series, it is "FATE.

"In terms of game restoration alone, Qi and Jinchao has almost achieved the ultimate and met the expectations of game fans. From the perspective of TV dramas, the picture quality of the casting costumes and props is very good, the growth of everyone in the six-member group is traceable, and there is no hard industrial saccharin, the emotional drama is very natural, it is a process of growth and transformation. The mysteries in the early stage were solved one by one in the later stage, and all the foreshadowing was filled in, the most exciting thing was that Bian Luohuan was [spoiler] and could not [spoiler], and with the help of the fog soul [spoiler], the whole closed loop is very exciting. The most noteworthy thing is the heroine's crying scene in episode 35, with the oath Chenghui burst into tears instantly, the only episode in the whole drama to cry. Overall, although there are shortcomings (as does every drama), it is definitely worth a look, worthy of the name of fairy sword!

"This is currently the most restored game plot, and it may also be the last."

"I don't know why there are so many 1-star bad reviews, just because of the heroine's dubbing, I don't understand. Watching the whole episode is really a top-notch plot."

"In fact, among game fans and drama fans, it is basically rave reviews."

"Fairy Sword Six: I think the story itself is well written, and the plot of the TV series is also very good after the adaptation. If you watch it in the TV drama environment of the year, this drama is at least at the level of Lao Xianjian (CP1), or even above."

What do you mean nobody is watching this? It is ranked #1 Top Chinese drama for two straight weeks and #2 last week. The gaming community who understand this story and its characters the most are praising the drama and even forgiving of what they felt is lacking in some areas yet praising it in other areas and these are intelligent and critical people. What was most important to them was that the "soul" of the fairy and sword has been restored.

you have a typo "eating"

Exactly every 4 wks the ratings in the core group 8-24 goes down 0.1:
8.8->8.7->8.6->8.5->8.4->8.3 (today)
the other core groups 25-34: 8.7->8.6->8.5->8.4->8.3->8.2; 35-44: 8.2->8->7.9->7. 8->7.7
these core groups make up 87% of the watchers,
never one day did it ever go up, always down... as if to eventually match 7.8?
SAF6 trending, unlike another drama the trend is up/down random, feels more organic and SAF6 just seems like it is fixed downward pattern

There's a certain expression with the slight of the mouth that Xu Kai makes that is also done by his animated game character in SAF6;, but also, I saw Hu Ge doing it in CP1, and it's the same sort of devilish charming smile that Harrison Ford does/

Only Xu Kai gets this kind of bad treatment on his dramas.

ZDY is in a different class.

When AvenueX, a harsh Chinese drama critic who has never said a good word about Xu Kai in any of his dramas over the years, and who will only mention Xu Kai if she can even find one remote bad thing to bring up, refused to review WOL, a top drama while it was airing, despite many asking her for a review, you know this drama is rock solid.

You sound like the online echo chamber for the narrative out there that someone started about the female lead. I noticed this pattern with WOL and then again with SAF6. I'd hate to see what narrative will be created for the fl in the upcoming ABAY.

She is not weak. Your perception is wrong in my opinion. Why is this even a spoiler?
