Immortal Samsara is the best xianxia fantasy drama ever. If you like Love and Redemption and Ashes of Love, you will love this drama. The drama starts out slow, but it gets really addicting from episode 6. Cheng Yi and Yang Zi's acting in this drama are outstanding. I'm so blown away by how well they portray their characters, I can feel the pains that they're going through and they have amazing chemistry. They are the best male and female lead duo. Cheng Yi was born to play an immortal deity who gives it all up for love and ends up being hurt by it. I can already imagine those tear-filled scenes.

Some wrote a very biased review because of their favorite LBFAD which also occupies the same timeslot as Immortal samsara. (Of course, a competitor fan indeed!) As a fan of both series, Immortal Samsara is worthy of watching too. It perfectly portrays the elements of a xianxia drama. I can see the hardwork and effort of the cast as well as the entire production team. Give it also a chance so you will see the beauty of the series. I hope they will also win a lot of awards for their hardwork. I truly believe that the cast and the entire production team deserves an award too. I rarely finish a drama but when I do I will stick and be addicted to it like a gum. I'm starting to shift from LBFAD to IS..hahaha.

This is the only drama with no filler episodes.. I enjoy watching the entire show.. There is a sense, flow, and the story is well written. Usually the mortal realm part is boring but in this drama, I enjoy watching it.

I believe the people who gave this series a negative biased review are the fans of the previous CP of the leads in their previous projects, fan of other "competitor dramas", or basher of the leads. I know it because I'm like that too in the past but now I become maturer and respectful of other peoples hardwork.

I pray Cheng Yi and Yang Zi will have a third collaboration as the leads in the near future...Fighting!

Based on the novel Chen Xiang Ru Xie by Su Mo, Immortal Samsara follows Ying Yuan (Cheng Yi) the Sovereign Lord and protector of a fantastic heavenly realm inhabited by deities and spirits who live long, peaceful lives above the clouds, and Yan Dan (Yang Zi), one of two rare four-leaf Lotus Blossoms who just wants to live a care-free life.

When both lives entwine, consequences, misunderstands, secrets and conspiracy is the name of the game, and romance can be what breaks everything in between.

A strong romantic fantasy drama with brilliant character performances, visually stunning CGI and cinematography as well as a beautiful romantic storyline, many great action sequences and some serious tearjerker moments thrown in!

Usually I dont like shows with such length. But Thank God I watched it and my time was totally, totally worth for it.

Although you may find 8th to 14th episodes a bit draggy but trust me first 15 episodes are the foundation of the future events and are crucial for the upcoming episodes.

And once they come in Mortal realm you will watch the episodes by replaying it again and again. Such is the storyline, execution, cinematography, casting , their sizzling chemistry and superb acting.

Talking about cast :- Cheng Yi - Oh his eyes do all the talking. He has perfectly act 3 different roles in this very single show. And I am totally in love with these 3 different characters.

Yang Zhi - She is fabulous, charming, adorable, pretty, smart, bold, funny, great actress as always. She is like life of the show. She balances the seriousness of this show with her charms.

Story:- As the name says it all, Immortal life's tragic love story. Their story holds you even though sometimes it is painfull to watch. But not that painfull that you wanna drop it instead you long for more. That kind of show is this.

Why it surpasses AOL in terms of plot ?

• AOL plot was straight and predictable with great acting. Whereas this show is unpredictable in terms of storyline with also great acting and its thrilling when you wait for " Aah what will be the next thing ?"

MUST WATCH for XIANXIA FANS.

Yes, i almost dropped this drama, but thanks God, i tried to skip episodes and went directly to watch ep 15, the forgotten river scenes, it surprised me since the plot is now become interesting and the act was superb, the feeling portrayed by Yangzi and Chengyi was so real and beautifully executed.

And the rest is history, since its now become one of the best xianxia drama i have ever seen.

*and ofcourse i get back to watch early episodes that i skipped before to get some foundation of the story.

And as usual, ChengYi's acting never dissappoint us, he can ensoul any character to become alive. His acting is out of this world and for this reason only, its worth watching since its rare and difficult to find such quality of acting in any dramas nowadays.

Dont worry, the plot will get more interesting and after watching more episodes, we will find that honestly the plot is even better than classic popular TMPOB or AOL.

So if you feel the plot is flat, the cgi is bad, etc... just hang on, or just skipped to ep 9, it started to get interesting from this episode and so on.

If you are xianxia lovers, IS is a must watch, period.
