THIS SHOW ATE
At first I found Esther's voice annoying because it sounded like a child for me but here I am, 20 episodes late, Loving her character, her voice and acting. Completely obsessed with the show and I loved how it was an enemies to lovers trope and Mu Sheng is and absolute softie for her and I can't help but start blushing and giggling like a fool every time they come on screen. The design and editing is great too and the outfits are just so pretty, I love how the hanfu's are really flowy and light and the hair accessories aren't too extreme like in some dramas. Obsessed about everything about the show and I love the side couple too! 10/10 recommend!!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

review from OG novel fan!!
im actually very impressed with this adaptation !they changed the part i didn't really like in the OG novel (when musheng basically lied to miaomiao and almost got her killed by the bamboo spirit...)
but the essence is still there!
original parts like father daughter relationship is also adorable!!
looking forward to new episodes
my expectation has risen haha

Cute and interesting storyline .
I was not planning to watch this drama but since I didn’t have anything to watch and i had already caught up on my already on going dramas , i decided to give it a go and to my surprise, i ended up loving it so much that i binge watched all the 9 episodes today .The storyline is so cute and funny yet so interesting.
Esther yu is killing this role . I love her character so much . Ryan is doing so well too as always .
I hope they show us the modern world too after she completes the ancient game . And i‘m guessing mu sheng is the author of this poorly written story .

Esther Yu
The series is very well-known. It's a game of going back to the past and changing things. But I didn't understand this in the first three episodes I watched. I didn't understand the plot. I didn't understand what was being said. I didn't understand what the actors were doing either. It seemed to me like Esther Yu's game of doing some funny things with her eyebrows down or drooping as if she was sad. She's being funny. Does it suit her? It's debatable. Childish things. It's not a style that appeals to every viewer. It seemed very unbecoming to me. I didn't like it. This understanding of the game also affected ML. It didn't suit her either. It dragged that actor down. The actors are good, talented actors. I was surprised how they got a role in such a scenario, in such a child's play. It's unbelievable that Esther Lu could play those roles with her face shape and eyebrows. I think she should stop being comedic. She should be more solid. She should do more dramatic roles. I don't have any objections to her acting, but it doesn't suit her. Sorry. I haven't mentioned the voices yet. It didn't work. I barely watched the three episodes. I couldn't bear it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

The Moonlight Trio reunite!
This has been one of the series I was dying for since more than half a year, and I have to say my waiting period was really worth it. I watched Moonlight for this show, and since I loved Moonlight, I knew I was gonna love this one as much!Moreover, I really loved the storyline, and the kind of video game theme it has with the pixelated illustrations and really colorful and vibrant costumes for the characters. Yellow and black really suits Mu Sheng, Ding Yuxi rocked him exactly like in the manhua! Like always, anything cute suits Esther and especially the fact she could play her role as Lin Yu totally opposite to her original evil character as in the novel was really amazing! I was also looking forward to Yang Shize’s role here because I really loved his relationship with Ding Yuxi in Moonlight, and his role and character as Liu Fuyi is just as great!
The OST here was really one of my favorites. The song by the main casts, Esther Yu, Ding Yuxi, Yang Shize, Zhu Xudan, Fei Qiming, Li Yizhen and Lu Yuhao was really a great OST by the casts I’d heard in while. The MV: https://youtu.be/4w0JbGUNg8w
The cast SLAYED the dance and they were even better than the original girl group who did this song before!
Overall, the cast, the layout, Special FXS, the colors and the natural acting makes this drama one of the greatest fantasy dramas I’ve watched in a while. Totally recommendable to people who loved Moonlight and those who like a good novel+video-game theme!

Interesting storyline
I am loving this drama so far. The only problem is the FML's fake voice, her jumping around like a 3 years old and her UGLY Ass customs! I don't know who decided the make her outfits look like a toddler just scribbled on a paper and the adult thought it was a good idea..... The entire outfit including thr hair style is just plain ugly! I hope as the drama grow, her outfits will be better...Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
I'LL REVIEW IT EPISODE BY EPISODE
I'LL REVIEW IT EPISODE BY EPISODE BEFORE I GIVE OVERALL REVIEWEPISODE 1: Lightning and Credits: A Familiar yet unfamiliar introduction.
1. Genre
-Familiar: Demon-hunting and Transmigrating to a book is common on c-novels. If you love to read this kind of genre, the plot is easy to grasp and very true to its premise. The drama opens the introduction with Ling Miaomiao's relatable character as a reader and worker. The book's plot the FL reads is explained through great watercolor painting style animation which I appreciate.
-Unfamiliar: Game System/Book Transmigration genre is a rare to see in c-dramas so it's still refreshing to see in the screen especially there are many scenes that I can't help but to laugh out loud such as lightning scenes, credits scene, and Ling Miaomiao's inner monologues about the novel.
2. Memories
- There's a famous quote by Jonathan Dunne "In the end, all we have is memories". The memories of FL in a certain scene where it feels like her two worlds collide.
-Usually in some dramas, if leads don't get happy ending in ancient world, there's possibility again to meet in modern world as another person. In this drama, we get that too in this drama but it's not the leads, but someone related to our FL (I don't want to spoil who it is) and this time, they didn't meet in modern world, but in ancient setting. This scene pokes my heart.
3. Clichés put into good use
-It's not a rare sight for Xianxia to see leads either ML/FL to be attacked by lightning usually punished due to disobedience to their master or God's or Heavenly rules. This drama add used that lightning not to create heart wrenching scene but into comedy gold. Added with closing credit scene, I can't help to laugh out loud.

Isekai: The best Genre
Food analogy: An exotic fine dining experience of Chinese CuisineThis is probably my first C-drama review and My very first Wuxia drama and I have always been a fan of Isekai. I can't begin to explain how much in love I am with this drama. I will probably watch a lot more wuxia from now on.
The story itself is very very good and has me hooked since the beginning. You would be drawn with the fight sequences and the amazing CGI but it is the amazing character developments will keep you going.
Let's talk about acting. Ding Yu Xi is the main reason I wanted to write an early review. From every smirk to every eyebrow arch, everything about his acting screams perfection. so amazing. With every tear in his eyes, i felt like my heart too was breaking. Then i realized, he is very underrated. I wish he gets the fame that he deserves.
Even when the FL is acting cute often but it has not been over the top ( which is a big deal because i generally drop dramas, if there is too much overacting) . Supporting actors are good as well.
Not much of a rewatch girlie but this drama, i know i will.
Don't skip this.
