Till the end of the moon

This was such a great surprise for me. I was already prepared for something grand because of the amount of positive reviews and fans this has, but It surpassed my expectations .

The story is just so captivating and powerful and you couldn't possibly ever get bored because every actor plays different characters living different lives and tribulations in different timelines so you are completely hooked since the show starts.

From the beginning you know you will suffer a lot with this genre of cdramas and the amount of angst is real( for every scene of lighthearted and playful love you get 10 of heavy super dramatic and painful scenes) but it is worthy. It is a very deep analysis of all human emotions and shows how experiences in life will shape the person you become.

Huge fan of the character development of this drama, extremely complex personalities and forever conflicted, feeling emotions they don't want or they don't understand but equally necessary for their growth and evolution.

I have watched our main leads in many shows and even together in Love is sweet and I believe both of them are quite great actors ( Bai Lu in The Legends was outstanding), they have great chemistry and its fun watching them.

The effects and costumes are on another level and you can see the quality, but I have to say, (as the one negative thing I find about the series), I didn't like the huge amount of makeup every single character is wearing on each scene, way too heavy and it's actually distracting in many of the scenes, I don't understand what the makeup director was thinking...

Other than that small thing and overall, its an excellent cdrama and I recommend you to watch it 150%, you won't regret it.

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.

Actors, acting, costumes, locations, green-screening, special effects, lighting, soundtrack all great. Really enjoyed the way the characters went through different experiences and some of the key questions: Once you are branded as evil, are you evil for ever? Can kindness change a person for good? Who caries the responsibility when ordinary people are slaughtered? It's quite a lot of food for thought, which is always a good thing in Drama.

Not so great is the rollercoaster relationship between the two leading actors. Once the relationship has been established, both swing between love and hate due to hearsay and false information. It never occurs to them that they are being played. Several times I felt the urge to cry out: "Talk to each other!"

There are one or two plot holes which fortunately do not detract significantly from the narrative. For the viewer, this delicious serving of eye candy is well worth the viewing time.

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.
