A lovely, yet sometimes melancholy story. Just right for me. I didn't discover this until this year, and I had already read the novel and watched The Untamed. But this took the previously beautifuly-woven story to a new level, really. The voice acting had my jaw drop every few minutes, and the details (such as read ears) were handled perfectly. Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji were EXACTLY as I had imagined them. BUT! But, in my opinion, the character's faces looked too alike, and I could barely tell Lan Wangji and Lan Xichen apart. However, this is honestly worth a try, and I swear, you shall not be disappointed. Why are you still here? Go watch it!

Where do I even begin, there's so much I love about this show! All of the characters are extremely well designed and dynamic. Even characters that had considerably small amounts of screen time breathed into life with layers of personality built on a simple sentence or their expressions and even gestures. You can't help but empathize with the characters because they come across as very authentically human and relatable. The voice acting is superb as they are able to convey these characters in very realistic and human ways. There are also so many deep analogies through imagery such as contrasts in the background or deeper meanings reflected in nature which really goes to show the superb directing abilities of the producers. Many of the messages delivered in this show are extremely subtle that compiles into a bigger picture which is what makes this show so re-watchable because you can always catch something new that you haven't realized before. This story is a deeply enticing one that explores the themes of honour, sacrifice, love, family, and the cyclical nature of human life. The art itself is of extremely high quality, the movements are very fluid, and the music beautifully transitions and sets the tone for important moments. This is a powerful story that will leave you to continuously think about as it continue to explore the subtlety in love. For those who may have heard of the BL elements in this show and want to avoid it, it's so subtle you almost have to look for it. The storyline itself is very intricate and weaves many complex emotions for all of the characters. It's a beautifully crafted story where the protagonists happen to develop romantic feelings rather than having an absentminded romantic plot that is just dropped on the audience. Afterall, love is love is love, who cares what form it's in? Strongly urge everyone to give this show a try!

I didn't know this animation in the first place until someone mentioned in a MV that this animation is so popular. So, I started to watch it.

At first, I must admit that I didn't like it because maybe, the first episode doesn't have the story line. But the more I watch, the more I fell in love with the story. I have already watched all episodes of season 1 a thousand times and still want to watch again and again. Because of the season 1 and 2 is one year apart, so, I started to read the original novel.

For normal condition, I don't read the original novel that much because my Chinese is not that good although I know a little about Chinese language to watch Chinese films. But reading novels, it takes me a long time to finish. I read it anyway.

It's the love story of two homosexuals. So, it kind of made me disgusting at first. No offence. But the more I read the story, the more it makes me to love the story. It gets interesting and interesting. By the way, I also listen radio drama version too because I totally love the story.

Back to the animation, the animation is basically good. But I wish they could do 3D animation, it'd be better.

All in all, everything is great. If I could recommend animation to watch, I'd definitely recommend this one. It's totally worth spending time. As for me, I'll be waiting for the upcoming episodes very impatiently.

Great story with beautiful art and music ! Although the animation did not follow the novel precisely (especially the romance between the two main characters has been "hidden", the anime still has plenty to offer.

Best Animation, Perfect angles in action scenes, Amazing music, Overall Beautiful animation with an amazing Story Line.

Everything is good but there are many events missing in animation which are there in Novel. It's kind of confusing for many people in the starting because they couldn't differentiate between two different timelines.

Backgrounds in this anime is just fabulous. Mountains and rivers and greenery is animated very well. There are not many anime with such a beautiful animation of nature.

Story line is also good. I did not feel bored at all even for a second. The story line successfully hooks viewers till the end.
