The good, the bad, and the rest...
To start off, this drama took me two tries to get into. After the first fifteen episodes though, it was - for the most part - smooth sailing.To be quite fair to this drama, it was actually pretty enjoyable from episode fifteen to probably around thirty-ish. I really liked the characters, the relationships, the plotline, and the love story is pretty chefs kiss. The way Tianyao looked at Yanhui was enough to steal even a dragons breath away. The villains were extra villainous too. Proper evil and enough to send any sane person to a mental asylum for some much needed tlc.
That being said, the problem lies in the length and the script. This could have been concluded in probably thirty episodes or even less, and if the two villains, and even the "good" guys left the main pairing alone, maybe less than that. It became a game of waiting for the same event to happen, the same sacrifice to take place, the same villain to show up with their evil cape of misunderstanding, and worst of all, angst just for the sake of angst to the point it legitimately didn't make sense no matter how many times I rewatched a scene. It became a game of suspend your belief and bolster your patience down, and not in a nice way.
By the end, and I was genuinely enjoying it up until the last ten episodes at which point I just wanted to push through, I really just wanted it to be over. Even the ending was personally lackluster and once again lacking in explanation. The only plus is the main couple and the fact that the actor for Tianyao is extremely lovely to look at + his acting is very enjoyable. Other than that, I'm not sure I can recommend this unless you don't mind repetitive villains, overused tropes, and have an immense amount of patience.

Historia hermosa que te atrapara desde el principio
Definitivamente esta serie me sorprendió gratamente, desde que comenzó se me hizo muy entretenida y atrapante; los protagonistas son preciosos y puedes entender y empatizar con ellos mientras vas viendo como van creciendo personalmente y en su relación, es increíble ver la química que tienen este par, como van enfrentado problemas, apoyándose, y viviendo miles de aventuras juntos; aunque Yan Hui comenzó siendo una chica con un montón de dificultades y Tian Yao la ayudo mucho, no era la típica protagonista tonta que todo el tiempo tenía que ser salvada por el chico, si no que era una relación reciproca, en la que en el momento que alguno de ellos tocaba fondo, el otro hacía lo imposible para protegerlo y ayudarlo a resurgir, ella es una chica dulce, divertida y perseverante que siempre da lo mejor de sí para ayudar a quienes ama; y obviamente mi rey dragón Tian Yao no se queda atrás, el pobre sufrió bastante y aunque tenía mucho dolor en su corazón, con ayuda de Yan Hui pudo superar todos los obstáculos a los que se enfrentaba, además era un chico muy noble, protector y valiente, que nunca se rendía ante nada y protegía a su amada incluso con su vida misma. Los personajes secundarios no se quedan atrás, aunque obviamente eran de gran ayuda para los protas, no existían con la única misión de eso, de hacerles sombra, si no cada uno tenía una personalidad y una vida única, aun sí aparecieran en pocos episodios, lograban captar tu atención y muchos de ellos también lograban ganar tu cariño, como mi chico sombra Bai Xiao Sheng, no podía parar de reír con todas sus ocurrencias y sufría cuando él sufría, es verdaderamente encantador; también adore a mi zorrito Zhu Li, la "fantasmita" Huan Xiaoyan, la increíble y poderosa amiga de Yan Hui: Xiange y su eterno enamorado Feng Qianshuo; obviamente hubo muchos otros personajes increíbles, pero este grupito fue el que me robo el corazón y a los que quería proteger a toda costa. Los villanos también fueron muy buenos... O querré decir malos... Malditos, los odiaba mucho, el fantasma oscuro arruino muchas vidas, pero personalmente lo que me dio más coraje es todo lo que hizo sufrir a mi chico sombra Bai Xiao Sheng, pobre de mi bebé; y aunque no era la villana principal, Su Ying la odie aún más, es que esa arpía perversa me le hizo mucho daño a mi dragoncito y a mi preciosa Yan Hui, por su egoísmo de querer tener a la fuerza a un hombre que tampoco la amaba y al cuál también lastimo muchísimo. En conclusión puedo decir que este es un gran cdrama, lleno de aventura, romance, drama, diversión y aprendizajes que te llevas el resto de tu vida, obviamente la recomiendo muchísimo, y me gusto tanto, que se ha convertido en una de mis series favoritas de la vida y planeo verla por lo menos una vez cada año. Dense la oportunidad de disfrutar y ser felices con esta maravillosa historia, no se arrepentiránVond je deze recentie nuttig?

Meeting and trusting the right person
Okay, first, I stil couldn't get used to this kind of fantasy drama with various power and things. So, sometime I found it irrational, but that's no offense it's my personal preference.Two, the story was pretty much entertaining in the first 20 eps, but got boring after. I had to watch it in 1.25 faster mode instead of normal mode. Sometimes I even had to skip it.
And I don't get the two woman (sisters) from that sect could be that annoying, that sister obession in reviving her husband's memory is just toxic.

Im torn on this one
I am enjoying the comedy parta of this drama that is for sure. I find myself torn in regards to the love story. The Dragon has been hurt by the last person he looked so I get why he's so guarded. It just feels like he shows very little to know emotion regarding the female lead. He can stab her in the heart with little regard for her life. I get that happening in the beginning, but to do that with no emotions regarding her to save his little elves kind of bothers me. Hope that in time this will change, but for now I'm not too fond of this Love story.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Dismembered Dragon Lives On
This is my impression having seen the first ten episodes of this Xanxia:It's not bad. It's watchable, and might even be..... * gasp* interesting!
Neo Hou isn't the most charismatic or versatile of actors. He only has two facial expressions, and, even when playing a character with a lot of power, he still ends up giving the impression of the nice guy next door, rather than a strong presence to be reckoned with. He has the presence of a short, nice guy who wouldn't necessarily win in an actual physical fight, but who is a nice guy, so you would cheer him on nonetheless. I bet some stubble would go a long way in improving his overall look. Nothing wrong with being androgynous, but it doesn't suit a character that is suppose to possess any type of strong mental or physical power. Lots of actors have femininity about them, but they are able to create a certain masculinity through characterization, other than just scowling. I don't dislike Neo Hou as an actor, and there are certainly much worse actors in Chinese Dramaland, but I offer this critique because I think it's valid. Certainly I find it difficult to dislike any actor who gives off such a positive "nice guy" vibe like this actor does. Can't help but notice his nose looks fake to me.
Our villainess is possibly the best written character out of the lot. She embodies all the negative aspects of female entitlement, greed, dictatorship, and manipulation, all in order to sooth the wound of being rejected and all as a cover for her low self-esteem. I found myself thinking this is possibly the best written antagonist I have seen in a Chinese Drama of the fantasy genre. The actress playing the villainess does such a great job here, despite being an icy and stoic person, she still succeeds in creating a rounded character.
Moving on, our FL, optimistic, naive, and even bubbly without being the village idiot. Well done to our FL and writers for writing a FL who is young without acting like a toddler. Our ML, though obviously supposed to be hundreds of years older than our FL, maintains a youthfulness about him so that the relationship never feels creepy or incestuous in any way. So far, so good. Doesn't seem like a really special drama, but doesn't seem bad either. Right now, it really feels "middle of the road", which is really good when it comes to the Xanxia genre. No characters I want to strangle have appeared so far. I hope the drama continues in this manner. Yes, the extras with the alien creatures masks on are totally cringeworthy, but I don't really expect a small budget production to be able to afford extensive CGI, and what CGI characters there are incredibly tacky, cartoonish, and out of place. Why they didn't just make them recognizable animal spirit characters from Chinese Mythology is beyond me, but that's OK. Story is what matters overall.
6.5 dragon horns out of 10.
Edit: It's getting boring now, and it's only at the eleventh episode. I might drop it now. The major obstacles have already been dealt with.

Non è Wagner
Del quale si diceva che fosse prolisso, ma divino. Qui invece dovremmo dire: prolisso, ma sciocchino.La prima quindicina di episodi era abbastanza godibile, sia pur senza gridare al miracolo, gli attori non erano eccezionali, ma l'insieme era abbastanza godibile. Poi c'è stato un progressivo rallentamento, mentre la storia si impantanava in ripetitività e comportamenti risibili, big boss non troppo ben ammantellati, reazioni infantili ed eccessive, personaggi assurdi e antipatici.
Dà l'impressione di avere materiale per massimo 30 episodi, ma ce ne sono 40, e tutto è troppo lento e irritante. Immagino che ci sarà un lieto fine, ma non sono più interessata a scoprirlo.
Oltre tutto, il povero Neo Hou, come ebbi a dire già altrove, a umilissimo parere mio è stato rovinato da cattive plastiche, e ha il viso virtualmente pietrificato: a che serve essere bellissimo, se le tue guance sono immobili? Non si può recitare solo con gli occhi: l'espressività richiede bel altro, anche e a maggior ragione se il tuo personaggio è un po' impassibile. Non puoi sembrare costipato ogni volta che devi rappresentare un'emozione!
Riley Wang si difende bene e anche la protagonista Zhou Ye fa quello che può, ma in linea generale l'impressione è di una recitazione senza scintille, in linea con la noia dello script.
Taglio le perdite e abbandono la barca, che per me affonda. Se invece arriverà in porto, pazienza, avrò perso qualcosa.

Addictive Wuxia series, with Neo Hou, for binge watchers!
Superb Wuxia with Neo Hou as ML and Zhou Ye as FL, both awesome.PLOT: The Duo / Couple with a ML (Dragon King deprived of his powers) and a FL (expelled from her sect), go in search of the dismembered parts of the Dragon God to reconstitute his powers and fight against evils. They are joined by a third guy, a Shadow Spirit (forgot his name :) inhabited by a demonic aura.
PROS:
+ Well-written story, like a “video game quests” with puzzles and obstacles to overcome to move on to the next level.
+ lively and intense CL interactions
+ dynamic narration, without length.
+ Very good casting with many experienced actors
+ Video game quality CGI
CONS:
- Final battle not very coherent (Dragon God at full power, who no longer really has the power to destroy the Great Evil) even though he was the main threat to it ?
- Happy ending a little short and not very coherent: FL reincarnated after 15 years, but who looks like she's 25 and who has all the memories of ML???
=> (very long) rewind of the entire storyline in episode 38.
There are 40 episodes of 35-40 minutes, but the episodes seem too short...
Almost a masterpiece (if the finale had been better).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Super Wuxia avec Neo Hou en ML et Zhou Ye en FL, tous les 2 géniaux.
PLOT : Duo / Couple ML Dragon King privé de ses pouvoirs et FL expulsée d'une secte, partent en quête des parties démembrées du Dieu Dragon pour reconstituer ses pouvoirs et lutter contre les evils. Ils sont rejoints par un 3e larron, Esprit Shadow habité par une aura démoniaque.
PROS:
+ Story bien écrite, du type "jeu vidéo de quête" avec énigmes et obstacles à surmonter pour passer au niveau suivant.
+ interactions du CL vives et intenses
+ narration dynamique, sans longueur.
+ Très bon casting avec beaucoup d'acteurs chevronnés
+ CGI de qualité Jeu Vidéo
CONS:
- Bataille finale pas très cohérente (Dieu Dragon qui n'a plus vraiment de pouvoir pour détruire le Great Evil) alors qu'il constituait la menace principale) ?
- Happy ending un peu courte et pas très cohérente : FL réincarnée après 15 ans, mais qui a l'air d'en avoir 25 et qui a tous les souvenirs du ML ???
=> reconstitution chronologique de toute la storyline dans l'épisode 38.
Série addictive, pour binge watchers ! Il y a 40 épisodes de 35-40 minutes, mais les épisodes paraissent trop courts...
Almost a masterpiece (si le final avait été meilleur).

It was an okay watch
truth be told i think THEOM(Till The End Of The Moon) broke me like this c drama couldn't hit all the emotional notes i was hoping for don't get me wrong i did enjoy it but it was an okay watch. I don't want to write the wrong thing cause we all have our own perspectives on things and the last thing i wanna do is make someone turn away from a show they will enjoy. So it does end in tragedy but it doesn't leave a sour taste but the ending seems opening ending cause FL is there in the mortal world. I enjoy tragedy Let get that out of the way this may have looked like it ended in tragedy but not really because like i said the ML found FL in the mortal world. Which is why i said it was an okay watch. i like a good tragedy but this couldn't make it don't get me wrong the story, acting, and music were all good but honestly, i think THEOM broke me like i don't feel sad when watching this like Jesus i was ready to get my tissues but my eyes just got watery no tear much less tears drop. I feel like this was a comedy because it did get me to crack up anytime is see Bai Xiao Sheng(Riley Wang) scenes he is the comic relief.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Pitched at the right level
I don't usually bother to review but I really wanted to support this series and the teamThe story is not too complicated yet it has plenty of imagination keeping every single episode entertaining with a fresh perspective everytime.
Despite the comedy and mangga feel to it,it has a deep message about good and bad , and not to discriminate between races (re-presented by Taoist and the monster clans) just based on old beliefs,social stigma and spreading of fake news
The actors especially the two leads are absolutely fantastic (especially switching from big dragon king to being a baby dragon for the ML and the FL going through her various trials
The directing, the script writing,the music is good all top level, especially the OST by Liu Yining and Hao Ming Hao
I strongly recommend this drama to everyone. You will enjoy it

Après la trahison d'un amant, l'ancien dragon Tian Yao s'est retrouvé grièvement blessé et le cœur brisé. La femme qu'il aimait l'a trahi en le démembrant et en le dépouillant de ses écailles de dragon, puis en scellant les parties de son corps à cinq endroits. Ce n'est que par chance que son âme s'est échappée. Aujourd'hui né de nouveau, il rencontre Yan Hui, qui jure de le protéger pendant qu'il récupère ses os manquants. En découvrant un phoque dans un lac, Tian Yao voit son opportunité. Après avoir rencontré Yan Hui, Tian Yao a repris espoir, sachant qu'elle possédait son échelle de protection cardiaque qui pourrait briser ce sceau. Tian Yao utilise Yan Hui pour récupérer les parties de son corps volées. Yan Hui planifie alors son évasion mais échoue. Étonnamment, elle constate que leur relation s’approfondit avec le temps. Tian Yao admire les efforts répétés de Yan Hui pour le sauver, tandis que Yan Hui apprécie le lien fort qu'ils ont créé. Les mystères abonderont à mesure que Yan Hui apprendra sa véritable origine.

BEST XIANXIA SERIES YET!
Tbh the whole storyline was crazy well made. The entire plot was unique and I had so much fun watching this series.Let me start with the cast: WHY IS NEO HOU JUST SO GOOD. The chemistry the FL-ML played is just so professional. Loved all the cast members none of them failed to surprise me with their deep into character acting.
Storyline: Usually back stories and stuff are complicate and twisted but NOTHING. The back story was totally understandable and the flow of the story was mesmerizing. From the beginning till end everything was connected.
Music: This series contained some of the best soundtracks. Nirvana and floating being just SO GOOD it's literally crazy. I kinda wish they used nirvana in more scenes but it's ok. Also liu Yuning did a great job with the music too, it was so touchy and seemed as it was emotionally connected to the story line itself. Represented Tianyou in every way.
Ending: I was expecting a little better ending but I'm super glad it's not an open ending. For someone like me who gets emotionally involved in a series, I have to watch a happy ending. I'm super glad the FL-ML got a great ending and I can't forget about the Supporting cast. Loved how they got together and the ending involved a kiss scene ahhh
Overall: well IT WAS GREAT. The crew did a great job and especially huge thanks to the screenwriter for making it look so professional done. Never forgetting this series now that I'm emotionally connect with neo you.
