Até o Fim da Lua (2023)

Stunning and Beautiful. A piece of Visual Art

I am from Pakistan. I came across this drama in my recommendations on Netflix. I had not seen a Chinese fantasy drama since I was a kid and decided to check it out. I was hooked from the very first episode. It may just be that I am watching Chinese dramas after a long time but this is the epitome of what Xianxia/Fantasy dramas are supposed to be. Epic storyline, emotional but not too sad, very high stakes, palace politics, military campaigns, anything and everything.

Luo Yunxi absolutely rocks as the main character of Tantai Jin. He is, at least for me, an absolute revelation. A true master of his craft. Every move and every small expression is masterful and adds to the scene. In fact, he owns the shows and commands every scene he is in. What an excellent actor and performer. I wish the world gets to see more of him because actors like him come down only once a generation.

The supporting actors are also all at the top of their game. Bai Lu plays an excellent aloof, strong, desperate fragile girl looking to save the world. Top-class acting here as well. In fact, everyone acts wonderfully.

Now let me talk about world-building and artwork. Beautiful characters, deep mythology, stunning sets and costumes, really gives the whole drama a regal look. In fact it is a visual art piece, something that China can show off to the world. I think the CGI could have been a bit better, but I know dramas have their limitations. The music is wonderful, and exactly how it should be. Wonderful traditional instruments with modern sensibilities. Even the staff roll is art is beautiful.

You could see everyone has tried to give their absolute best. From the actors to the technicians, everyone on set, was trying hard, day in and day out to create something special...and special they did

the end of my sanity runs so thin

If I'm being honest, I am watching this show because of Luo Yunxi. I really hoped I would see him as Chu Wanning for now.. but this is what I get for now so I have to live with it.

This show has a lot of similarities to the one I wish I was watching, but looking past that I can see a lot of things that are convoluted and messed up about the story. There are an overwhelming amount of 10/10 reviews so I am rating this more realistically. I am being more harsh because so many people just say 10/10.

So its not bad. The costumes are gorgeous, the sets are gorgeous. Its really good looking. At times the CGI is over ambitious. I realize I am not like the many many others that are applauding it. It is way too much whenever it is there, it is like a bad marvel movie. I get it is the heavenly realm or immortal realm or whatever, but still- the amount of disbelief I can overlook is a lot- and it goes over that bar by a large margin. The CGI is CGI, if I can tell by that point it takes me out of the story. The half of the first episode is hard to watch because of the over saturation of the CGI. It is a huge battle and Luo Yunxi's demon god character is overpowered. This drama is just overproduced. I wish at some point someone anywhere would have told them to stop. I should have saw this coming with the posters for this show (the photoshop is horrendous.. why is there hair floating, Luo Yunxi's hand...) also I kid you not, they reuse shots.. and they freeze shots as if they don't have the material.

That's ok. They set it up so I hate him and he is irredeemable. He killed Bai Lu's characters whole clan (she has like three names so forgive me, I call her Bai Lu). Her father dies in front of her eyes and she is taken back in time to Demon Lord not being demon Lord so she can kill him...

This is where I have a problem. He is this dictator that kills anyone for power. He wiped out several races for power, and its fine it isn't explained why he wants that yet. I like the idea of seeing why he becomes bad and his life is honestly so pathetic that I don't blame him for being upset. It is just underwhelming that Bai Lu is sympathizing with him? He killed her whole family but she is so into this new life. The thing I am having a hard time digesting is that the life isn't even hers. I don't know why she cares so much, and if it is because she is nice than I think that is dumb. I'm sorry. She comes back to kill him, but is taking her time for some evil bone- but in the meantime she is sympathizing? The whole killing several races trumps over whatever he is crying about or getting beaten over. This show right there is off, the plot holes of her being the person in the first place to go back in time to kill him. Main character energy I like, but this is just too much.

It was because she was the only one who wasn't dead. I wish someone less easily swayed was there instead. So in the end when she wishes that she didn't sympathize and has her moment, I don't care. I just think she is so so so dumb. It is a whole romance story, but that is my problem. I get it is based off a book, but if other dramas have to change their narrative to make sense - why can't this one?

It would be a million times better if the narrative was changed. Like have Demon Lord not kill her family, change it to minutes before to show that he is about to but is conflicted. Then I would be ok with her sympathizing because of his pause. Or maybe cut out the romance. Honestly this show caters to the audience, to hopeless romantics. What is with China and romanticizing toxic relationships.

Luo Yunxi gets abused by Bai Lu in the previous life, but then she's nice for a few days and he wants to stay with her? It is Stockholm syndrome I swear. Both sides of knowing they are going to get together make me uncomfortable. There are stories that do the whole being evil but being human better. Luo Yunxi pre demon lord is established to have no feelings- so that's another plot hole? I am watching and getting frustrated by the absurdity of all these plot holes. So for that I rate it like I did.

The acting is very good. The costumes are good.. the story is something I can't get into because it is another drama that is yet again falling into the deep romance. I wish stories could be more gritty and stick with it. It is a shame because it is like there is a guy and a girl leading then in China they have to fall in love. Even if that is the worst possible decision for both of the characters.

I’m officially dropping after the multiple plot lines of drugging characters and sleeping together. There is a word for that- and it’s sickening. This drama glorifies the whole idea of that and it’s like they are trying to have it pass because the girl did it to the guy .. it’s flashy its- offensive and spreads the wrong messages. This show is unaware and I can’t buy into their love. Across all the different timelines or universes or lifetimes. It’s toxic and I refuse it. I could write a several page essay and it’s a shame. I wanted to finish this one but I’m done.

Summing it up it is way too much. Everything it too much and it’s not balanced. Maybe it’s good at the end but at this point I wasted 10 hours. That’s a lot and I’m not wasting 30 more

I WANT AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS RANKING

Every time, i cannot really understand why the ranking become so low from the first episodes. This is completely unfair not only for this drama but also for much more that i have noticed. Mydramalist have to give access only for the final assessment. Please stop unfairly rating a drama when its plot hasn't even started yet. By what criteria has this rating been made? I really can't understand it's ridiculous. Τhe application should definitely be improved and not let the user set a score until the completion of viewing a work. How much more so when in the morning his score was 8.7 and in the evening it fell to 8.3.
Please write down your reasons ,because I seriously don't understand them. ITS RIDICULOUS!!!!!

This is one of the best xianxia drama I have watched in the recent years!

The first episode was so typical of xianxia drama and I was struggling to finish watching it. I also did not particularly fancy the cover page of the drama (on Netflix) which shows TJJ’s face only. But I was so thankful I didn’t give up as the drama turned out to be so good! I was captivated by the lead actor Luo Yun Xi’s acting of the character TJJ/ MY and the Denon lord. Also very impressed by Chen Du Ling as YBC (I hated her when she did all the evil things) and Deng Wei as XL. Bai Lu also brought out the character of YXW pretty well. Just the acting by the actors and actresses make the drama worth watching. There were some illogical parts and very obvious villain characters which make some parts of the story predictable but these are quite minor and I would still rate the story as good and coherent. The CGI, customs and OST are great too. However, thought the music could be better, e.g specific ost / remixes ost to support specific scenes, like what was done well in Love like the Galaxy.

One of best xianxia dramas.

This drama is a visually stunning and emotionally intense Chinese fantasy drama, blending elements of romance, power struggles, and dark fantasy. The story is set in a world ruled by demonic forces, where humanity faces extinction, and the female lead plays a key role in trying to turn the tide.

The plot is complex, with multiple timelines and deep character arcs, which keeps the audience hooked as the story unfolds. The lead actors, Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu, deliver compelling performances, with excellent chemistry and character development that explores themes of love, sacrifice, and destiny.

The cinematography is a standout, with beautiful sets, intricate costumes, and impressive CGI that brings the fantastical elements to life. The soundtrack also adds to the immersive experience, heightening the emotional weight of key moments.

However, the drama can feel a bit slow-paced at times, particularly in the middle episodes, with some plotlines feeling drawn out. That said, the emotional payoff and high-stakes narrative make it a captivating watch for fans of the fantasy genre.

A very entertaining story

I have watched this drama twice and loved it each time. Generally I can move on from shows but I keep finding myself going back to Till the End of the Moon edits. If you have read the novel and are expecting the same thing from the show, although there are certain scenes that are the same and although the premise is basically the same, they are very different, which I assume is due to censorship. If you plan to watch I also recommend taking into consideration if you can take unrealistic stuff seriously because I know people who found the whole thing funny and cringy because they couldn’t take it seriously. I happen to love taking things seriously though so this became and remains one of my favorite dramas.

Um dos melhores Cdramas que eu já vi.

Quando eu comecei a ver eu jurava que ia ser apenas o romance de um Deus Demoníaco e uma garota aleatória, mas na verdade eles se aproximaram quando o Deus demoníaco é só um mortal fraco que é maltratado por todo mundo.
A protagonista feminina (Li Susu / Ye Xiwu) é uma personagem realmente muito empática e destemida, confesso que em muitas cenas você sente raiva dela porque acompanhou todo o processo do Tantai Jin se apaixonando por ela, enquanto ela no início só pensava em mata-lo, mas seu pai confiou nela para fazer isso e até foi morto pelo Deus Demoníaco (Tantai Jin), mesmo assim ela confio que ele poderia se tornar uma pessoa boa, já que o passado de Tantai Jin era extremamente triste, sua mãe morreu, seu pai o abandonou, quem o cuidou também traiu ele, sua esposa até então maltratava ele e o batia todas as noites, o bichinho literalmente nasceu pra sofrer.
De verdade, a única cena que eu tive um ódio absurdo da protagonista foi na cena que ela queria dar algo para Tantai Jin desmaiar e ela conseguir salvar Xiaolin, faz sentido apenas se pensarmos na personalidade da personagem, mas se pensarmos na missão dela ao vir pro passado e no tempo que ela tinha para fazer isso não faz sentido algum ela sair do foco de sua missão.
Tantai Jin é um personagem que de início pensamos que nasceu para ser maldoso, mas que na verdade, como mortal, era apenas um homem sofrido e que parece ingênuo (só parece, pq o plot dele só ter fingido que trancou com Xiwu provou que ingênuo é algo que ele não é), o desenvolvimento do personagem foi ótimo e a história do por quê que ele virou o Deus demoníaco foi muito bem detalhado e ótima, o fato de que Susu fez tudo certinho para que Tantai Jin se tornasse o Deus demoníaco me fez pausar a série é olhar para o teto por uns 10 minutos.

difficile de juger

Et oui, c'est très difficile de juger cette série
J'ai aimé :

1/Le casting sublime, notamment les acteurs principaux. Luo Yun Xi est remarquable ! Il peut jouer le dur ou le faible, le triste ou l'heureux, le gentil ou le méchant.
2/Les costumes, les coiffures, les bijoux, certaines scènes comme les mariages ou les fêtes sont absolument magnifiques
3/ les effets spéciaux sont parfaitement exécutés et très jolis
4/ la musique est toujours raccord et plutôt pas mal

Je n'ai pas aimé

1/ voir l'acteur principal à tous les épisodes ou presque se faire : trahir, droguer, poignarder, empoisonner, abandonner, torturer...
2/le personnage principal féminin qui ne sait pas ce qu'elle veut : elle fait confiance puis pas confiance et ce pendant 40 épisodes. c'est fatiguant ! Il suffisait d'une fois pour qu'ils aient une vie bien meilleure
3/ la fin !!! sérieusement ? après avoir souffert 40 épisodes il ne pouvait pas avoir une fin heureuse ? Pourquoi tuer le personnage principal masculin ? Il laisse une femme et une fille à naitre c'est affreux. Une résurrection même brève comme dans "love between fairy and devil" aurait été bien
4/la succession de coups fourrés envers le personnage principal, cela n'arrête pas ! 100% des personnes de son entourage lui ont, à un moment ou un autre, fait un coup tordu

En résumé, série à ne pas voir si vous êtes dépressifs ou tristes, à voir pour la beauté et les acteurs.

An Honest Series Review

This is a high-budget drama boasting exceptional cinematography and effects. Frankly, it proved challenging for me to complete, spanning a three-month duration, and my overall sentiment leaned more towards frustration than satisfaction. While the drama's quality is not the issue, my struggle to persevere stemmed from the actions of the female lead character.

I acknowledge her reluctance to risk falling in love with the devilish male lead, yet her choices appeared to inadvertently contribute to his descent into darkness. The male lead's singular flaw, an inability to feel love, is understandable, but he manages to develop genuine affection for the female lead despite her questionable actions. Rather than harboring animosity towards the female lead, I recognize that her character was portrayed in this light, and I empathize with her caution given the devil's role in her family's tragedy.

The primary deficiency I observe lies in the realm of communication. Other characters in the narrative fall into either the category of annoyance or likability, forming the crux of my verdict. The acting, particularly by the male and female leads, stands out as top-notch. They adeptly convey the readers' sense of annoyance and frustration. In conclusion, while the drama is commendable, I would hesitate to recommend it to those seeking a portrayal of a healthy relationship due to the evident lack of effective communication among the characters.

A wonderful story of tearing our feelings

Sensational. It's a strong drama, which shakes our feelings in every way. About the ending, I consider it an exciting ending, but not sad as many said. The couple's chemistry is unique, it's a real breathtaking dark romance. Despite suffering along with the suffering of tantai and the protagonist getting on my nerves sometimes, with her choices and lack of communication, I also understood her side and the story did not lose for that. There are so many twists and turns that we generate a mixture of feelings, be they happy, sad, nonconformist and hopeful... and each of them build this story that is worth watching and getting emotional. I would see it again and recommend it to everyone... what a fucking dorama!
