Hehehe, I never watch donghua! Always enjoy live action! So no need to compare!

I was thinking, the #wuxia genre in fantasy fiction & #cdramas almost always centers on fraternity & male valor and rarely on sisterhood & female heroism.

One main reason I wrote my #SwordMaidenfromtheMoon duology was to rectify that shortfall.

Watch Sai'er, Yulan, Pearly and Mulan kick butts!

#mythologyMonday #mythology
Readers of my #SwordMaidenfromtheMoon duology would notice that Tang Sai'er is the Chang'e incarnate as well as a real historical figure! What inspired me to connect the immortal with the mortal? Well, it's the Qing novel "Unofficial History of the Female Immortal" 女仙外史!

One of my all-time favorites. Beware: the 2nd half is a wild roller coaster! Buckle up!

For me, #BloodRiver is the one that stands out because of the main leads' internal conflicts.

#cdrama #DashingYouth #BloodRiver #BloodofYouth
I love all three of these connected #wuxia series. Each can stand on its own as a separate story albeit sharing some characters.
DY - story of fraternal love/romance
BR - a dark assassin story (spinoff of DY)
BoY - a bildungsroman (sequel to DY/BR).

#cdrama #DashingYouth
I just finished this #wuxia series! What I loved most was the brotherhood loyalty between Baili Dongjun (#HouMinghao) and Ye Dingzhu (#HeYu) and the master-disciple affections between Dongjun and Master Li Changseng. Ye's tragic love story was also a heartbreaking highlight!

Well, imao, she carries her role well enough despite her young age. Of course she's not as perfect as Zhao Liying.

I don't know why the feed "Wuxia/Xianxia/Mythology" has suddenly disappeared !!!???

Anyone has any idea what's happening? Seems the co-creator of this feed is nowhere to be seen!!

I think most viewers are just way too attached to #PrincessAgents and its cast to be willing to give #Rebirth a chance. I too was sceptical about HYTT fitting in the role of Chu Qiao before giving it a try, but then it turned out that her acting is not that bad and the story/scenery was captivating!

Thanks for the heads up! At first glance, the new cast seems OK to me.

I absolutely loved #FatedHearts and #PursuitofJade !!

I'm giving this a try. Episode 1 did give me feels of #PrincessAgents from flashbacks. We'll see how it goes!

Hope you enjoy! The cinematography is really stunning!

Yeah, the aura of FoF and of VoS does feel the same. But the latter's plot is just way too snarled!

As much as I want to continue with the #xianxia #cdrama #VeilofShadows, the story twists turn out to be in too much of a tangled mesh for me! I've done 14-1/2 episodes and am giving it a rest.

Meanwhile I'm still enjoying #FangsofFortune (because of #HouMinghao)!

I'm nearing the end of #wuxia #cdrama #DashingYouth, and overall it was a solid wuxia story about torn loyalty and brotherhood set amidst violent court machinations. I was deeply moved by the individual character development of Baili Dongjun, Ye Dingzhi & Xiao Ruofeng!

I would argue, that after all the trials and tribulations in
#PrincessAgents, the FL should really look like a mature and hardcore warrior. #ZhaoLiying in the latter part of PA does look like a seasoned fighter.

Thank you!

Thank you!

I finished ep. 30. 1st half a bit slow but the plot thickens with the court intrigue. #HouMinghao was what led me to this series and he doesn't disappoint! Glad to find Su Muyu, Su Changhe & Su Jie (from my favorite #BloodRiver) appear at last!

The story clearly doesn't make sense from the start! Couldn't even finish episode 1. 😓

Enjoy the ride!

Lost You Forever S1 & S2 are my absolute favorites! Xiang Liu is just one unforgettable character!

Glory is also one of my favorites!

For me, Joy of Life is the most outstanding of all!! Judge Dee is probably the most underrated!
