The Untamed had everything I wanted in a drama and more that I didn't even know I wanted. I had initially put off watching the show because I had a number of other dramas I was trying to finish. However, I decided to check out one episode just to see if I should put it in my watch list and I got hooked! This drama led me to read the novel and then watch the donghua, read the manhua, and listen to the audio drama. The characters and the story were all sooooo good that I still feel like I can't get enough of them now that I've completed the series.

I'm sure there were flaws along the way, but because so many things were done right in this drama it's easy to overlook or forget those things. I really loved the novel, but there were certain things done in the drama that I thought enhanced the story. I'm sure that some people would easily be able to watch this show and just see the relationship between the two leads as a deep friendship, but the reason I was hooked was because after two episodes I was absolutely convinced that it was more than that. The chemistry between the two leads was absolutely magical. I was really impressed with how the drama was able to draw out all that angst in the story and still manage to provide enough fluffiness to make every scene totally worth it!

The only reason I regret watching this is because now I don't know what else is out there that would compare to this series. I love epic love stories, wuxia , fantasy, and supernatural elements and this nailed all of that for me in a most satisfying way.
