Really loved it and enjoyed it immensely!!
A Definite 10/10 for this Romance Sport's drama. Really loved it and enjoyed it immensely!! I binged this, watching until early hours of the morning.Everything was great from Story which is very original in my opinion, Acting, Visual effects, Production and OST.
Wu Lei is an amazing actor in my humble opinion, he did very very well in his role as Yiyang. His acting and expressions were spot on and believable in every aspect for the character he portrayed. I was very emotional with the scenes of Coach He. He also did pretty well with english and also singing in english. I'm also impressed by Zhao Jin Mai (mere 21yrs old) as Yin Guo, I've only seen one other series of her, Reset but will look into the others she played in. Their chemistry was great and their love story was very believable. The scene where he proposed made me so emotional, it was just right with their friends in the background. The shot of the seating area from above (spelled out LOVE) was a perfect 'ending' of the proposal scene for us, the audience.
The other actors also did a great job with special mention for Wang Xing Yie, Chen Jing Ke, Ding Xiao Ying, Dong Zi Fan and Wang Jia Xuan. Also Yin Guo's mother, Wu Qian played by Jiang Hong Bo who brought 'real' angst in terms of the family accepting Yiyang.
First CDrama which I watched with part of the series being in a foreign country. Production was done very well and scenes (city, etc) and scenery was awesome, especially the island get away.
The sports side of it was exciting and first ever billiard/pool/snooker series that I've watched. The competitions were filmed very well with great angles, etc. Googled the rules of the specific games and it broadened my knowledge and opened a new sport to me, to enjoy. I normally love anything to do with horses, tennis and gymnastics and snooker is now part of it! We have a pool/snooker table but haven't played for some time and want to now play again.
Ost was awesome and will be downloading the songs used especially the main song, Love and shine.
Rewatch value is very high on this one. Will wait a month or so and definitely watch it again. I will miss the main cast and it's a pity that it has ended. Would definitely watch a second season if its at all possible.

A perfect 10 as there's truly nothing that can be improved on, great as it is❤️
This was an excellent Supernatural Mystery Drama with some comedic relief in between. My very first Taiwanese series!I took a bit longer to finish this 12 episode series because of the roller-coaster of emotions that were evoked.
A perfect 10 for me as there's truly nothing that can be improved on with this series, as it was great as is. Thought provoking and actually learnt something.
Truly impressed by the actors respectively male lead.
Everything from the story to the acting, Production, Visual effects and OST was ust right.
Rewatch is Medium, mainly due to the crying, etc. Will maybe Rewatch in a week or so ... Not any later though..

Thought provoking and really makes one think......
The longest I've spent on 30 episodes, but and this is a huge 'but'.. A very GOOD reason for it!!Brilliant series and right out need to say that I wished that I waited for season 2 to also be available...... Can't imagine waiting for another year or two.......
The reason for taking longer than usual is because of the complexity in the story. I really needed to concentrate to keep track of everything that was happening and spent lot of time on Google. Topics such as 'the three body problem' (what it was all about) and if it existed outside of sci-fi as well as certain things surrounding astrophysics, gravity, radiation, migration patterns of birds, etc etc. All of this helped me in a way to better 'take in' some of what was happening in the story. Thought provoking and really make one think about what we, humans are doing to our planet and where it will end. The writer of the Three Body books is superb in drawing you in and the screenwriters and producers of this series did a great job in my humble opinion.
The actors really did an amazing job at portraying their respective characters. I absolutely loved Shi Qiang's character and Yu He Wei did an excellent job!! Edward Zhang portraying Wang Miao also did a great job. The others also did well but these two kept me engaged throughout the series. The foreign actors weren't that great but I read that this series was done during Covid so that's ok I guess.
Production and Visual FX was top notch for me. I also read in an article that money was running out and that it was necessary to use personal funds at some point. So taking this into account they really did well. The gaming interface was a great addition and it was a necessary part to bring everything together.
OST was amazing, I loved all the soundtracks and audio which were included at just the right time.
Overall really enjoyed this and can't wait for season 2 and 3, unless book 2 and 3 are combined in season 2.
Highly recommended!

BEST OF THE BEST❤️❤️❤️
Finished 20 June 2024. A great historical Romance series that I enjoyed very much❤️Really enjoyed this and can honestly say this was the best historical romance series I've seen thus far, even with it being a 2018 production. I delayed watching this due to the number of episodes and very glad that I decided to watch it as lessor episodes would have been a great disservice to this story.
All the actors did really really well and made the whole story come to life and made it feel very real.
Production, Visual FX, OST and sound effects were excellent for a 2018 production and brought everything together to contribute to the success of this series.
The reason for not giving full score is due to a few plot holes, why certain individual was murdered (shown but nothing further), unsuccessful assassin shown but also nothing further, poisoning discovered but nothing further, etcetera.
Rewatch value : Very high - will definitely rewatch this when I can't find anything to my liking or, like this year where a lot of shows are only releasing at the end of the year.

Story is a real mess
I only watched this for Xu Kai and the trailer looked ok, but this series was disappointing to say the least. The story had so many issues...... with so many stupid and unintelligent characters and stupid/unintelligent decisions by Council members, Masters/Teachers, etcetera. Way to many episodes which were filled with unnecessary re-runs of certain Arcs (just in a different way). CGI was also bad - expected better than this for a 2023 production.********SPOILER ALERT********
The story was all over the place, inconsistencies and contradicting at times with so many plot holes and issues. So many stupid and unintelligent characters and stupid/unintelligent decisions by Council members, Masters/Teachers, etcetera. Script writer and Producer really made a mess of the novel in my opinion.
There are actually too many issues to discuss so I'm just mentioning one that frustrated me the most. Some of the characters, specifically Ji Rong was basically forgiven for all her wrong doings, nobody truly suspected her of any wrong doing, both the uncles, Zong and Tang which were 'commanders' , or people around her didn't question any of her actions (can forgive Qingshi as he was in love with her and didn't want to believe she's bad), all other characters around her were portrayed as 'dumb or blind' to everything she did wrong, causing numerous deaths. Her death was not specifically shown in the the last encounter with QingShi but assume she died.
The acting of main leads were the best they could do with the script they had to work with. Some of the supporting actors didn't do that well, to mention a few Tong San played by Tong Hu, Zong Ling played by Zhou Zhong and Moyang Chen played by Geng Lee.
Production and Visual FX were ok but not great.
Sound effects: the sound the spear made when used by Xue Ying was too loud and distracting at times. Demon King voice sounded like a crazed cat or rat and was super annoying.
Sound tracks were great.
Rewatch value : Definitely won't rewatch.

Xiaobao made the show enjoyable in every aspect❤️
Good enough to watch! I do however suggest not to watch the 20min final episode because its very confusing especially due to episode 24 that was in my opinion the ending. I thought the last 20min were just cut scenes, etc but it wasn't. Very confusing to say the least.......The story had some plot holes therefore only a 7 rating for the story.
The main couple had great chemistry and I enjoyed their characters which were played well by the actors. Xiaobao was adorable and correct actor chosen for his role. He made the show enjoyable in every aspect. The other actors also did good in portraying their respective characters.
Production and Visual FX were good.
Ost was also good but not memorable for me to search the song and to add to my playlist.

Chemistry off the chart
I'm not entirely a fan of this trope, i.e where the audience is taken into a story written in modern times. This part however only had minimal screentime in the beginning and at the end of the actual story so I enjoyed this series ❤️*******SPOILER ALERT********
Story: I'm only giving this a 9 rating as the concept of Ning'er reliving her life to change her destiny was sometimes a bit 'unrealistic', what I mean by this is the fact that she's completely different to what she was in the previous life. Her being a scheming individual that only wanted to be the empress, which is a person with different values. This is my only gripe with the actual story.
Actors did a great job in portraying their respective characters. Special mention to the ML, Zhang Ling He who did an excellent job portraying Xie Wei, he really looked crazed at times, unhinged, obsessed and in love with the FL, Ning'er. Bai Lu did a good job as FL. They had great chemistry. I also enjoyed the acting of the following actors, Wang Xing Yue, Zhou Jun Wei, Liu Xie Ning, Jiang Xiao Lin (bodyguard of Xie Wei), also the other bodyguard of Xie Wei who's name I can't find under the supporting actors.
Other actors that also caught my attention is Zhou Da Wei, Melody Tang, Qin Tian Yu, Yu Zhong Li, Cui Shao Yang(really played the part of a playboy and fake Xue Dingfei well) and Yu Zong Li as 'sister' of Ning'er.
Production and Visual FX : 8.5
Ost: 8.5
Rewatch value : 8 will rewatch if there's nothing better to watch

Evoked feel good emotions, so it was lovely to watch
A very good youth romance that evoked feel good emotions, so it was lovely to watch.Had light comedy which placed a smile on my face as well as some difficulties that brought on the tears.
A good story that wasn't too cheesy with every day life events taking place through out high school, college, internships, etc. The actors did really well in their respective roles and the love between main leads were believable.
Production and Visual FX as well as OST were great as well.
Rewatch : highly likely when I am in need of a feel good series.

Power couple, friendship and lots more❤️
Highly recommend this series!!Historical Romance which I really enjoyed. All actors did an amazing job portraying their respective characters, especially Crystal Liu and Chen Xiao, as well as Ada Liu, Jelly Ji,Dai , Zhang Xiao Qian, Guan Yun Peng and Xu Hai Qiao.
I enjoyed the story which kept the viewer engaged and wanting to see how everything is going to work out and routing for the main couple as well as the others. Also getting furious with the villains and sad with characters that were bullied, hurt or humiliated, etc. Had a few laughs with Chi Yan Nei's character as well as Du Chang Feng and Sun San Niang which is worth mentioning.
Production and Visual FX was great in all settings. Beautiful scenery etc
OST, loved every song and Audio etc were played at the right time.
Rewatch value : very high - would like to Rewatch this series to see the intricate detail of the story and moments between characters.

Immortal Samsara: Part 2
1 mensen vonden deze beoordeling nuttig
Awesome series ❤️ Never felt dragged out and actually felt like I finished it faster
Worth the watch. To all who will watch this series - make sure you watch the two short episodes 60 and 61!!Acting: 9. Loved all the characters, except the bad guys of course especially that of the main arc. The actors did a very good job of portraying their respective characters. I did form a bond / connection with most of them and routed for a lot of characters - this only possible when the actors do their best. Special mention, Yang Zi a d Cheng Yi who did an awesome job of portraying Yan Dan and Tang Zhou. I really enjoy Cheng Yi's acting and he is a great actor in my humble opinion.
Story: 9 The story unfolded quite well with plot twists and surprises along the way. You could foresee outcome of some plots because of clever hints given - you have to pay attention though. I binged the series even with 59 episodes in total. Never felt dragged out and actually felt like I finished it faster than other series's that were 40 episodes. Bulk of the content felt necessary to get to the finale.
Production and Visual FX were good: 8.5
Ost : 9 music went well with bulk of the scenes.
Rewatch value: 9 Will likely Rewatch some episodes and perhaps entire series if I can't find anything better. That's after I've re-watched my most favorite drama series's of course.

This was unexpectedly a very good series and I really enjoyed it.
This was unexpectedly a very good Wuxia series and I really enjoyed it. Glad that I decided to give it a chance even though there are numerous reviews and comments which suggest that this series is not worth watching.The comments regarding the female lead, Ren Min not being the right choice for the character of Zhu Yan is ridiculous. She acted the way the character was written and did a good job in my opinion. Ren Min's acting is a 8.5/10 for me. Xiao Zhan did great as Shi Ying so 10/10 for him (really impressed with his acting skills) .
All the other actors did a great job at portraying their respective characters especially, Alen Fang, Wang Churan, Zi Qi Wang and Marcus Li. The chemistry between the couples were also very good and believable, specifically Shi Ying and Zhu Yan as well as Bai
Xuelu and Qing Gang.
Story: The story kept the viewer engaged with enough intrigue to keep one wanting to see what happens next. Most of the Arc's were tied up but the Sea emperor's and the Dragon Lord's wasn't.
The ending is left open for interpretation, either Shi Ying will only return once a year when the Snowy Rosa blooms or he became immortal and actually returned in the last scene to spend their remaining years together. My interpretation is that he became immortal and returned. My reason being that when Yuan took Zhu Yan and seriously injured Shi Ying (because he lost his powers after Zhu Yan resurrected him with the Blood oath spell) , he went through rebirth, regained all his powers and became immortal. So he was able to return by transforming from the white petal (his primordial spirit in the white petal).
So story 8.5/10
Production and Visual FX were great as well Cinematography, excellent CGI, beautiful sets and scenery, excellent fight scenes which were well choreographed, beautiful costumes 9/10
Ost: 10/10 loved all the music and sound effects

Feel good slice of life drama which I enjoyed
A feel good Slice of Life drama that is a good watch. It's an easy casual watch with a lot of cooking but is broken up in several parts, including start up business, family life, etc. It does get a bit boring though but as soon as you feel bored something is thrown into the mix that 'wakes you up' to continue watching. And this occurs until the very last episode. Don't want to say too much and will leave it at that.Story an 8.5 rating as it keeps the viewer engaged enough (for me at least) to finish the drama. Others might feel bored and won't stick around for 36 episodes.
Acting: 8 The lead actress did the best out of all the actors.
Production and Visual FX : 8 it was ok with good Cinematography for the preparation and cooking of the food.
Ost: 8

Cheesy romance
Story contains almost every cheesy romantic trope there is and a lot is predictable. It was interesting in the first half and then became a bit boring. Don't even remember laughing at any stage even with genre including comedy.This is for someone that don't mind cheesy romance around every corner. There's isn't really much to this series other than romance, the rest is just things to fill the episodes and my rating therefore only 7 overall.
There's also no real chemistry between any of the couples. Some of the characters that were supposed to be seniors and older family acted childish and assume this was how the characters were written. Actors did ok but nobody really stood out for me personally. Acting therefore 7.5
Its a easy watch and you don't really need to concentrate too much.
Production and Visual FX : average with mainly campus setting. 7 rating
OST wasn't memorable at all. 7 rating
Rewatch value: very low

Enough of everything, enjoyed it❤️
A good historical romance series ❤️Everything was great, only reason for 8.5 rating is that the cheesy moments were so much that it was cringe at times. I understand that the main take away, which I feel the writer wanted to bring across, is of a New beginning, i.e. changes that are made for a better life.
All actors did a great job of portraying their respective characters and enjoyed the different personalities of the princes (the good ones). The angst and court policies were needed especially with the cheesy parts, but would have been better if there were a titbit more.
Enjoyed the OST.
Won't necessarily rewatch but perhaps my absolute favorite moments of Prince Yin Qi and princess Shan Guang Jing, really enjoyed the interactions between them and it would have been absolutely boring if it was not included along with Prince An's stupidness.
