Five Go Wuxia

Just one of the best dramas I've seen. I don't normally watch dramas with a lot of martial arts, as I get too stressed (I have PTSD) but in this drama, the fighting is manga-fied to the point where it's beautiful, acrobatic, a joy to watch, but not too violent. The characters are really engaging, and there's something exhilirating about watching the Wuxia genre played to the max, and beyond, without falling off the edge into ridiculous. I think this is a wondefully skillful production, with really sustained attention to detail. Love it. Perfect. I'm really hoping they can sustain the pace of the story. I'll come back and edit this if it looses momentum, and ends up in the badlands of all those other long c-dramas which lose their way. ... I've made it to episode 26 now, and no sign of flagging. I've increased my rating in fact. Totally hooked. Wuxin is my favourite.
