An Unlikely Romance Between a True God and The Pheonix Queen
Adapted from the novel “Hidden God” (神隐) by Xing Ling (星零), WeTV’s latest adaptation “The Last Immortal” shares a close connection with the popular fantasy romance “Ancient Love Poetry”. Starring Zhao Lusi and Wang Anyu in lead roles, the show recently premiered to high expectations and is making waves throughout. I have been reading a lot of contradictory comments on MDL about this show; some like this drama immensely (like me) whilst others aren’t exactly enamored with Wang Anyu’s acting prowess. I had the same reservations, when I started with the first episode. His expressions seemed to mechanical and paired opposite a phenomenal actress like Zhai Lusi, his act was indeed disappointing. The show takes sometime and effort to get used to; I was mainly focused on the mystique surrounding Zhao Lusi and that was the only reason, why I persisted. But overtime, Wang Anyu’s Gu Jin slowly grows on you. Before going into too many details, let’s reminisce and rejoice!Read the complete article here-

Story line interesting
This is not a heavy drama but the story is very interesting the first few episodes it's quiet ok but after I watch another episodes I realized that the main plot it's getting exciting and interesting . On how their Love conquers all inspite of their different belief and misunderstanding.This is the first time I've watch xencia because I don't like it, but I'll get curious on how many people got reservation to this drama, male lead is annoying on the first few episodes but as I continue I understand his character and I'm having trill to watch the upcoming episodes. I suggest to watch it till the end to understand the story well.

Tired story plus too immature for my taste
I generally enjoy xianxia dramas but this was a disappointment. The story is tired and predictable and I couldnt get past the first 10 episodes of the characters acting childish. The sets and costumes also looked unsophisticated to me and felt like a drama geared towards teenagers or kids? Story, cast, CGI, visuals, nothing really measured up to the other big budget xian xia dramas of this year like Till the End of Moon or Lost you Forever.Unless you're a superfan of ZLS or WAY, this is probably not worth your time.

Best drama 2023
I m not any actor or actress fans but I usually evaluate the drama based on storyline.I really feel this is the best drama for 2023. The chemistry between the main lead and second lead is so awesome. Their friendship and the way they support each other is really good. Love the cute ah yin and Feng Yin is with magnificent aura. ZLS and WAY emotion and expression is so on point in all their scene.
Their OST also is my favourite.
Storyline is awesome and smooth and moreover I do enjoy the ending.
ZLS drama never disappointed

slow-burning romance
Slow burn romances follow the characters as they fall in love gradually, giving us a realistic and genuine romantic experience. It allows us to watch the progression and transformation of their relationship over time.This is what I think about the show, it is slow pace at the beginning because it established the origin of both lead, how they gradually fall in love.
Zhao Lusi never fail to amaze me, the girl can really act, I had been a fan since TROTAR.
Wang Anyu based on the criticism he's receiving right now means he's effective in acting dumb.. he will mature eventually..
I dont get it why people are being bias about the show.. like seriously.. the drama only begun.. lets wait for the middle part of it... if it was not to your like its ok not to watch it but continuously dragging the show do you have other purpose?
Let passerby watch and judge it,...

A distinct storyline! Is that too much to ask?
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m officially fed up with these recurring stories. They may as well just make one drama and give it different names. It’s frustrating at this point, the acting, the storyline, the actors themselves, and the CGI to be fair has always been at it and you’ve got to give credit where it’s due. For me, C-drama is on a proper downhill and pretty much has been for the past couple of years.The genre XianXia is enormous, and you cannot tell me each time we’ll have to watch repeats of other dramas, it’s so cliché having to watch a drama and being able to predict what is gonna happen. What happened to the impressive voices, eye-catching Male and female leads, the distinguished storylines like Journey of Flower? And I’ll just say it, this thing of petulant and trying-to-be-funny actors has to stop, it’s boring and it gets annoying at times with how long it carries on and how much screen time it takes up. As for the FL, I’m a huge fan of Zhao Lusi when she’s playing a role that brings the best out of her, Who Rules the World directors understood that perfectly, and for me that was her best-ever performance I have seen to this day. The ML lead does not fit this role, or the storyline doesn’t fit the ML, whichever way you want to put it, he shouldn’t be playing this role and that storyline is mid. The turning point is what is doing my headin’ the most. It was just like any other normal scene and all of a sudden it was something huge. Come on! Where’s the build-up? I get no feeling that something story-changing is about to happen.
And before I even forget, what was this writer thinking about when he decided to hand us a ML with such little spiritual power? He’s a true god for God’s sake!!
Personally, I’ll keep on watching this scrap and I have to anyway because I have no other drama to watch but I highly advise you to do something more productive with your time. I haven’t found this drama interesting enough to keep me exuberant waiting for the next episode. It’s instead just happened to be another of many failures of the C-drama industry this year.

Sorry I tried....
This drama just not for me....Story found boring.... Not original.... Not a fantastic storyline....
Zhao Lusi, look she has been in better dramas with much stronger presence.... This for me personally not one of her best roles.... Acting is okay but just a step down....
Wang Anyu really bad.... Childish role.... So much better with Gina Jin in 'Falling Into You'.... That drama felt very good performance by him....
I seen many people are enjoying the drama so if you are one who is enjoying please continue to watch and enjoy.... Just wasn't for me. Still fan of both Zhao Lusi and Wang Anyu as I have seen them before in many great dramas, I tried however can't force myself with this drama anymore....

My first ever Xianxia drama
This is my first Xianxia drama because its not my cup of tea but TLI honestly did not disppointed me. Its great and fun to watch. Both lusi and wang anyu acting is superb. Lusi acting comedy and cute at the same time and also Wang Anyu too. I'm waiting for the angst episode as they say. The CGI and the costumes are very good, excellent actually. The story line and script are easily to understand. the OST is also great wang anyu and zhao lusi singing and also silence wang. Can’t wait for more episodes to be released.Kudos to all The Last Immortal cast & crews

A Magnetic Xianxia
I was blown away with the production, casting and storyline of this drama.Its sheer entertertainment value cannot be denied.
I have to commend the costume designer for the beautiful clothes of the characters, especially the female cast. The colour is vibrant in pastel which pleasing to the eye. The hairstyle is immaculate as well.
#ZhaoLusi is getting better and better. I am so glad she is choosing dramas that are well worth the time of viewers.
Totally recommend this drama to anyone.
Thank you, Tencent, for this gorgeous Christmas present. Well appreciated.

BEST DRAMA
Best drama..Good music .. I like Zhao Lusi ..Her drama never dissapoint me..Her chemistry with Wang Anyu is the best.This plot i like so much. I love to watch this split character. She can be cute also she can be strict. For me she is one of the best Chinese Actress . I love how she act. She can carry a lot of character. ..I dont know why many people jelouse. Maybe because she is so good and chemistry among male lead is so high. she can partner with so many male actor. She can built chemistry so fast. Thats make her special. She can grow popular more and more. Trust meVond je deze recentie nuttig?
Last immortal
I have never written a review for dramas before, but this drama caught my attention and I wanted to write a review for it. I read the reviews about the drama, some were very good and some were really bad. The success of Lucy and this series has hurt them so much are angryI wanted to say that we support him and the entire drama team because he has worked hard for everything and deserves respect and admiration. The drama has an interesting and exciting story. Every episode makes you want to see the next episode faster. It is true that the visual effects are really lacking, but this weakness The excellent acting of Lucy and Anyo and the rest of the actors can be overlooked. If the effects were better, I'm sure this drama would have received more positive ratings than now, and many hits may be named, but anyway, watch and enjoy this drama. Ayin is very cute. Gojin is also simpleIt makes her trust anyone easily and that's bad. I hope my daughter doesn't upset Ayin too much because it makes my heart ache. Lucy conveys emotions really well. Watch the drama and enjoy it. Don't think about anything else.

Endearing Drama with Endearing Chemistry
This was such a wonderful and easy drama to watch for me. I'll admit I started watching this because of the FL. From what I've seen of her so far, she seems to nail every scene she's in.From beginning to end, I fell in love with the characters and the cast. Although I'd never watched the ML in anything before, and why it took me so long to give this a try, he was so, well, ENDEARING. And the enamored way he would glance at the FL lead gave me butterflies...even when he was supposed to have eyes for the SFL. His little mannerisms and caring shone through, even when he had to make the harshest decision regarding her. The agony of this scene was, I think, one of the highlights of the series. During this particular scene, the FL was extraordinary. Her expressions and the way she becomes the character is amazing to watch.
The costumes were beautiful and the CGI was better than I thought it would be.
Another plus is the second couple. I saw the SML in LLTG, and hoped to see him in a bigger role. He doesn't disappoint here. I am glad he had his chance at romance, although he sure took his time getting there.
I did have to take a half a star away for the ending. It's happy, but I wanted to see more than a glimpse from across the way. The leads deserved a run into each other's arms, twirl around, and kiss sort of ending. They went through a lot to get there.
A SOLID 9.5 rating
