It's Wonderful
I'm a big lover of the title for multiple reasons. I'll start by saying that I'm a fan that comes from reading the novel it's based on, Mo Dao Zu Shi, and I'm very pleased with how this came out. The acting and cast are lovely and I don't have any complaints with how they portrayed the characters. The music is very nice and I honestly love that the title song was actually sung by the actors that play the characters. There's a song from the novel that Lan Wangji composes about the two of them called Wangxian, which is a obviously a combination of their names. The song that they created for the title is called Wuji which is an alternate combination and I love that they went that route, keeping that little easter egg in there.
Overall, the storyline is pretty coherent and keeps to the novel which is the best anyone can hope for when it comes to novel adaptations. The characters all look similar to how you'd imagine them and things happen as they're supposed to. I've already watched the whole thing through twice already. The props can take some getting used to as some scenes and shots, you can definitely tell their props are fake because swords will wiggle or things will move a little oddly, but for the most part it's easy to ignore. The only real complaint I have is against China's restrictions on what they allow. Mo Dao Zu Shi is originally a love story between Wangji and Wuxian and would have loved to see more than just the bromance/best friend relationship that they got reduced to.
