It's been a while since I wrote a review on a show and I make it a habit to write reviews on shows I think are either TERRIBLE and should be avoided or are UNDERRATED or MISUNDERSTOOD. This is one of the Misunderstood shows.
STORY: So I've seen a lot of people saying the story is dumb and there's too many time skips but may I say the time skips make the development. In the first five or so episodes, the story is developed poorly and we get two Five year time skips. At first I was so pissed and like confused because those episodes literally contained the plot. LITERALLY. This shouldn't stop you from watching it as it's gradually explained in painful but needed flashbacks. I gave the story a 9 because it's unique. The Idea that what you see or hear are most likely not true. .The Idea that though Demons mean a cruel/ evil spirit or person, the people we call demons might actually be angels that went through terrible things and the people we call angels might be the demons in disguise. In other words, do not judge a book by it's cover nor a person by the front they put on as most are just people hurting. This made me fall in love with the story. Oh and yes it is a love story, a story of love of different people who went through shit. Not just romantic, the familial love and loyalty. The tragic love of some. Love that was bound to be tragic and love that was bound to survive the tragedies thrown at them. IT IS A GOOD SHOW!
ACTING/CAST: Can I give a rating higher than 10? WOW Xu Kai and Bai lu, can I please get another romance show with both of you as leads? The acting...what can I say? I was mind blown by all the casts. The evil, the good, the demons, the angels. (Metaphorical). My favorite characters apart from our leads would be seventeen (Lu Shi Qi), Jiang Wu (Though got on my nerves a billion times) and our savage doctor (Han Guang). They were the comic relief of the show, the beauty in the show and the most loyal. Worst character? THE ENTIRE IMMORTAL SECT OF MINGXUAN. Any character that liked Mingxuan automatically, I hated. Favorite couple? of course our main leads. Demoness and Demon kings son. Their love went through so many trials and tribulations but stood strong.
MUSIC: Beauty.
ENDING: This is my main reason for this review. Now it seems a lot of people were confused by the ending. It was a happy ending. The two at the end were not them but their kids playing them. Understood? Yes. Okay. Yes it pissed me off to not see them together at the end too but we gotta take what we can get right?
Rewatch: Yes, sometime in the future.
Let me round it off by telling y'all...the kiss scenes...the wait was worthy. If you're looking for some angst, romance, strong af female leads, amazing character developments, loyalty, laugh your ass off moments, cry your eyes out moments, go right in.
