Love Game in Eastern Fantasy

I'm not a fan of Esther Yu, I find her acting cringy but I decided to give this show a try. I was hoping for some versatility and I was disappointed, all she gave was silly, dumb and cringy. Admittedly she can be a little funny but that's like 10% of the time and not worth all the cringe.

The supporting couple is just bland. Thats it.

The only character worth watching was probably, Mu Sheng, the male lead, and thats not a good thing because he was pretty violent and had a weird obsession with his sister for half of the show. But still the romance btw him and the FL gave me a little hope which was dashed when they actually got together. For such a long build up, they gave us nothing.

This whole ensemble was so bad that towards the end of the show I didn't even care what happens to the characters.

In the end I truly believe the show would have been much better with a different female lead.

The people down complaining about Esther yu sounds like a hater don't come to me but not a fan of anyone but for me she carried the show and I couldn't imagine any other actress playing miaomiao, she's perfect. She made the show engaging the first few eps and the plot went a little downhill after ep 6 but the show was still good and loved the chemistry sm. I will definitely rewatch this again when I'm sad I couldn't stop laughing at how many times the female mc was killed and Esther portrayed it so well with her little expressions!! Charmed to death and the mirror demon is so pretty too. I loved every character in this show.

Highly entertaining and super addictive eastern fantasy drama with an engaging cast of characters, immersive story telling from female lead's POV. Set design, costume and animation effects greatly enhanced the audience's viewing pleasure.

The palpable chemistry between the leads Esther Yu and Ryan Ding is one of the key reasons why this drama attracted me.

The superlative acting, humorous moments and underpinning themes of kinship, family, friendship and budding romance woven into this adventure drama are other compelling reasons that kept me glued to the screen.

Each supporting character has its own storyline and the different types of demon each has distinctive costume designs that add to the appeal of this drama.

At first I thought, this is not a show for me, until I got past a few episodes and into the story. I think it may be one of my favorites now that I have just finished watching. Merging the present and fantasy worlds were absolutely intriguing. We always wonder what that would be like and this show took me on that journey. Excellent acting. A great balance of action, and drama. And I love a perfect ending and I think this definitely achieves that bar. Very creatively written.

Probably one of the most underrated best shows I have watched. There are so many layers to the story and life lessons behind it. The character development is crazy good as well. It's the kind of series that sparks reflection and discussion, and honestly, it deserves way more attention and praise than it gets. The complex themes like identity, morality, relationships, and personal growth in a way that feels genuine and thought-provoking. I highly recommend watching it. I cried so much and laugh so much watching this show, it is throughly a good blend of comedy and seriousness, which surely bring you through an emotional rollercoaster ride.
