This was equally as enjoyable as the first season, I don't understand the negative reviews that this season has gotten. Honestly, it was good or better than the first and held up to the hype. Most times, when dramas or movies get sequels they are not as good as the first season, but this was an exception.

Plot: The plot was amazing, I must say. I love how it left off from season one so it make sense for this season with the time traveling arc. Many people was complaining about it being confusing yet they didn't finish or watch it until the end. Because, when Mo Lian cheng(Future) went back in time to help save Xiaotan, he had sparked the butterfly effect. Which is why everything was different than in the first season. Of course, anything with time traveling is going to be complex instead of being simple. Aside from the time travel, I loved the endless amount of romance that was in it. The kiss scenes was very steaming making you wish that you had a love life. Which I would have to give Zhao Lin a lot of credit. Furthermore, the costumes were pretty and better than season one. The humor was also excellent making me want to spit out my drink as their are so many modern/ future references.

Characters: Most of the character's are the same in personality so their wasn't much character development from the first season. There was character's that we didn't see in season one such as the consort of the emperor (Lian Cheng and Yuhai's father) ,the foreign princess and Lui shang (Lian Cheng in disguise). What also was bring to my attention was that both Pan'er and Yuhai didn't even learn from season one since they both had a second chance at life. Pan'er did sacrifice herself but because she knew that even if she kept on living Yuhai would never love her.

In conclusion: I would definitely re-watch it and suggest it for people who haven't watched it.
