Watch it if you want
Okay, objectively, this show... needs a lot. I think the story starts off as intriguing but it somehow never reaches a climax in the way one would want it to. Villains are a little weak even though they are quite funny. Production is okay for its time, I guess. But considering that most of its cast members are first-time actors this isn't too bad. Xiao Zhan is motivation, of course. Peng Chuyue's comic timing is good. Bai Shu does a very good job with what he is given. You do struggle to continue with the show at some point. There are definitely better shows out there, but if you're an XNINE fan, this one is for you.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

What even...
I laughed so much during the last two episodes I can't even.S1 of this show was nice. Xiao Zhan really grew as an actor in a very short time and I loved Beitang Moran. Wu Jiacheng was pretty solid in both seasons and Zhao Lusi as Fei Fei was amazing. This show could have been an 8 on 10. But the last two episodes...
Now that I've watched a few Chinese dramas, I've seen the same thing happen in a few dramas. They will be perfect for the most part, but towards the end, either the writers are in a hurry to tie off the show or something is going on with the producers but it just ruins the show. I don't want to say too much about what happens in the last two episodes but it was such a 180 degree shift in terms of tone and writing that it really disorients the watcher.
But again, this show has Xiao Zhan crying beautifully, Xiao Zhan talking to a turtle, Xiao Zhan moving elegantly, and Xiao Zhan in that silky black robe, so most of it is forgiven.
In short, Xiao Zhan is the highlight of this show. If you're going to watch it, watch it for him. Have no other expectations.
