Till the End of the Moon

Hello, I watched until the last episode before I write this review, I even rewatched most episodes twice! Yes, includes the last ep too.

Like other international viewers, I jumped in Till The End Of The Moon, and very impressed with the production. Till the End of the Moon is highly recommended epic xianxia romance.

Indeed, some critics may say that the story is quite similar with 2 or 3 fantasy drama produced before. Yet the CGI, costumes, and chemistries lay solid facts of maybe the most epic drama of 2023. Furthermore, there are director's decissions to emphasize a discussion about love and psychological stature -which I believe went beyond the original novel- that made the drama dear in my heart.

Not to mention the acting! And I don't mean only one single actor plays Hamlet all along. As an international drama viewer who watch many dramas (not only C-drama which had just recently uprise), I valued actors and actresses because their performances. Only by great performance, great acting, I can rewatch a drama again and again. A great plot of course interest me at first watch, but not to rewatch unless with good performance.

Thus with this review, I send my applause to Luo Yunxi who plays the dramatic, bold yet miserable God Demon brilliantly. He smartly differentiate among 3 characters played, and succeeded to bring up the layers of feelings that each his character has. It is surely "beyond". My most favorite moment was when his anxious, weak and petty character feeling enormous devilish power in his hand. I got cold feet again and again by his play.

The second best actor IMO was the actress who played Ye Bingchang. As a viewer I hated her to the bone. Which, a sign that she plays beautifully.

Of course, it would not fair to not mention the female lead. Her potrayal of Ye Xiwu complement other actors very well done. If the character not played by Bai Lu, I don't think the other characters will went top notch. Afterall the story IS actually about her.

If there are minuses, in my opinion, one thing disturbing me is about the management of costumes. Perfect costumes embelish the character of drama and highlight the acting. Yet in fantasy and historical sets, costumes also symbolize a sign of time-line, a sign of character's development. The costume management is not only problem in this drama, but most of C-drama which sometimes made international viewers like me confuse with story's logic and story's line. For example, there is a time in this drama when 3 immortals sent to mortal world, beautiful Li Susu costume's not well symbolically functioned as it should be (although it is surely very beautiful).

Finally I would recommend this drama to all international viewers. It is an epic romance. It is highly philosophical and psychological (discuss about depressions and consciousness). It is highly rewatchable. If you rewatched it, you'll pick 2 or 3 great life quotes. Their acting are great. Round applause. Possibly Luo Yunxi's masterpiece in acting, although I hope he will not stop here and become better and better in the next performances. The CGI, costumes all that are superb. Highly, highly recommend !

Now this is my favorite TV series, I'm looking forward to the release of new episodes. The actors play great!!! Thank you for the wonderful work!!!

I hope that the series will be appreciated. Everyone worked hard, the costumes are gorgeous, the scenery and special effects are amazing. The cast is on top, the actors' acting is fascinating, all the actors with a love line have excellent chemistry.

When the series ends, I don't even know what will be able to surpass it. For the first time, I'm so looking forward to the release of new episodes.

Everyone in my environment is really looking forward to the release of new episodes and just like me, they support the entire team of the series.

Xianxia tends to be hit or miss with me, but I was drawn in by the appeal of seeing Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi together again after the Love is Sweet. Their chemistry doesn't disappoint. I really loved the first 3/4 of this drama. Though both leads are good, Luo Yunxi really owned the show as the tortured Tantai Jin, and I found two of the lifetimes (Ming Ye/Cang Jiu and Tantai Jin/Ye Xiwu) equally absorbing and the CGI above the usual. But once we returned to the "present," the storytelling fell apart quite a bit for me. The pacing became uneven, the cut from scene to scene disjointed. The logic of the characters became inconsistent and subordinate to the plot. Sometimes it lagged, sometimes it was too hurried. The ending was not, for me, satisfying. It just felt sloppy. I don't know what happened in the production, but it certainly felt like more care was put into earlier episodes versus the latter and I only ended up finishing because of my investment from the earlier episodes . I went from wishing the drama would never end to wondering if it ever would by ep 33, a big disappointment. That's not to take away from the actors. I hope to see Bai Lu and Luo Yunxi collaborate again.

I fell in love with this series at first sight. The incredible look of the main character melted my heart from the first minutes of the series.

The actors got used to the role perfectly and revealed the characters.

The plot is interesting and exciting. After watching each episode, you are looking forward to a new episode.

I'm a fashion designer and I really liked the costumes. They are detailed and perfectly convey the mood and image of the heroes. The special effects are just as good.

I'm watching the series and as if I'm plunging into that world with my head.

This series has become one of my favourites. Thank you for the work done! I look forward to the next series!

Till the End of the Moon is probably the most spectacular series of 2023 in my opinion as it becomes the most-watched series of the year. The success of the series is no doubt because of the main leads, Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu. Pairing them again after their previous work, Love is Sweet (2020), was such a great idea. They really had strong chemistry there and knowing that they will be pairing again, I have been waiting for their series to come since 2021. Finally, the series was worth waiting for as it becomes the most favorite series of the year.

Many reasons why Till the End of the Moon becomes everyone's favorite apart from the two main characters. First, the exquisite costumes and jewelry, (seriously, Luo Yunxi looks incredibly dazzling as well as magnificent in every costume he wears during the series), gorgeous make-up and hair styles, spectacular special effects, stunning cinematography, first-class chemistry between the two main leads and last but not least the interesting story with good plots.

However, personally, I absolutely believe the scene stealer is Tantai Jin who played by the awesome Luo Yunxi. He portrays his character brilliantly and he's very believable in doing it. I have to admit, I love his visual and expression as Tantai Jin. I guess no one can play the character of Tantai Jin better except him. As if the character was made only for him. And for you all information, I could not take my eyes off the screen whenever I saw him on it.

Too bad the series just ended yesterday, if only it has more episodes, so I can enjoy watching the love story between Tantai Jin and Li Su Su a bit longer. Good bye Tantai Jin, your character willl have a special place in my heart for quite some time. You will be missed by all of us for sure.
