Men with Sword 2 (2017)

Wow, just wow! I'm amazed on how this series improved since the last season, not only the budget got bigger, but the locations, costumes and even their wigs looks prettier! The costumes were absolutely beautiful, I loved all of them :3 The story is almost the same: kings fighting for land and power, Ah Li's revenge on Tianxuan and a new incorporated love triangle between Ah Li, Zhi Ming and a new handsome king (who can easily pass as Zhi Ming's twin lol, Ah Li has a type I guess xd), it's funny to see how the purple king gets jealous all the time.

There are many new actors in this season and almost all of the old ones are gone, I really missed them since I got very fond of them. Many of the new people are amateur actors, I can't say I didn't like their acting but it wasn't that great, just the average. However, Ah Li and Zhi Ming's actors acting skills improved a lot, I loved the way they portrayed their characters feelings for each other, so sweet to watch. And as always, the soundtrack was beautiful, it got me emotional many times (again haha).

My only complain is that some romantic scenes were cut off by the censors (Zhi Ming picking up Ah-Li in the air, Yu Xiao catching Ah Li when he falls, Yu Xiao and Ah Li holding hands, Zhi Ming holding Ah-Li's hand, Yu Xiao and Ah Li's hug), but I'm glad cause this season somehow survived the slaughter the first one has gone through, is way more complete and the light romance scenes are still here! I never got tired of watching the sweet scenes between the these handsome men.

OVERALL: 8 of 10
