Da feng da geng ren

Guardians of the Dafeng takes a frequently used plot device of a modern day person being transported to a fantasy world and really embraces the absurdity of the situation and uses it to showcase how the main character is able to adapt and leverage his modern education and experience to his advantage. If you are looking for a serious drama you should move along but similar to shows like Avatar the Last Air Bender the goofy humor is balanced with some intense drama and enjoyable action. You begin to see that the main character uses humor, smarts, and a very high EQ as a tool for survival and that he seems to approach his situation as you would play a video game - sometimes over the top and sometimes very subtle but always working towards a goal of somehow figuring out how to "win" the game or at least make the best of it. Wang HeDi (Dylan Wang) is the perfect person to bring this character to life - his charisma and sincerity is a joy to watch and the supporting cast is fantastic. I love it and can't wait for the rest of the episodes.
