Good, but a bit long
This is my third Wuxia /xianxia C-drama.
“Love between fairy and devil” took me some episodes to get into, but then I enjoyed it. “The Untamed” I didn’t manage to get into at all, so that is on hold. This one gripped me pretty much from the start.
It is long, and some scenes are very dragged out. I watched a lot of this on faster speed, actually.
As some other reviewers mentioned: You have to just ignore how bad some of the effects are. It’s kind of like they realised they didn’t have the budget to do it well, so instead of doing a half-ass job they just kept it very simple instead.
In some close-ups you notice that the makeup could have been better as well.
I mostly liked the costumes though.
Besides some over-acting in certain scenes, most of the acting was good. I liked both the FL and the Ghost tribe princess.
The script was quite well-paced. The storyline had some rather familiar plots from scheming characters. That became a bit too much for me at some points to be honest. The story didn’t give me many surprises, but it still made me cry towards the end.
