what's wrong with editing department

Okay let me see where should I start my review
yes first I need to thank god
I mean, I'm blessed so far that I didn't come across any other drama with this much bad editing. The poorest editing award goes to this drama.
They should Fire the whole editing department as well as those who are satisfied with this editing. They are all from the evil path sect.
Every single scene of this drama was badly edited. They just jump from one scene to another to another to another, cutting the ongoing conversation in half. Even child can tell their cuts.
it's like they put scissors ✂️ on a child's hand, and he cuts (destroys the whole house) whatever comes under his radar, and his parents don't even care. I feel, how dare they pollute their art.
There is so much to point out, but I'm not gonna since they didn't have much consideration for their work. Why should I waste myself writing a long review? I'm considerate enough to at least finish what I've started to watch.
Besides editing, the one and only reason it's not a complete waste of my time and their resources is the least I can enjoy Zhang Ling and Jing Tian such perfect eye candies.
Everything else feels rubbish. Credit goes to the director, and editing department and everyone who didn't even care about their project.

I know it's an adaptation of the novel, I haven't read it, so I have no idea about the storyline. I don't know if it's that simple novel. please do tell me if they made changes, or is it exactly like the novel?
Points I want to point out :
First, it was the first fantasy idol-based drama with a minimum cast. Characters appeared just to disappear within an episode. Everything about everyone was missing; u catch a glimpse of an idea because they considered to vividly putting everything in a few sentences here and there, so u know, okay, this and that might have happened, but that is it. Because of that, there is no impact on you. Characters die, and things happen, but u don't feel anything. There are no emotions u feel. ?Ml sacrificed himself, but u know he gonna come back, so it was that easy, u don't even care. (This was my first death ever from fantasy drama or any other drama where I don't feel anything, even if it's ML who dies. There is no impact or reaction of any kind. It was that tasteless and all because of editing).
I don't know if it was called fast-paced drama or no-nonsense drama, like the director telling us indirectly that u already watched 100s of this kind of drama, so whatever u feel are missing, add those elements urself. Let's move to another scene we have limited time and episodes.
I so hard to explain this drama the feeling I got from this drama let's say the episode is 30 minutes long without opening and ending credits but I didn't feel I watched anything in that 30 min, every single episode gave this same feeling ( like what today episode finished but their nothing much happen even ml die in that episode) and it all because of their edit style for some reason they focus on their silly funny comedy and so Called romance no romance angle. Tbh, I don't feel any romance it was like in one episode they put it that way.
21 episodes in ML Become Demon Fl Become Demon Slayer only 15 left I wonder if in the next 5 to 6episodes ML or FL, one of them die one more time since usually in this kind of demon and demon slayer love drama there are three lifetimes than last 9-10 episode everything reveals related Shao cang falsely convict and main villain came from great path sect non-other than the premier of great path leader ying zi wei our ml sifu ????????if that happens it was so typical I didn't even need to read novel I can predict.
Lastly, the whole drama so far gives Sen Lou vibes the so-called demon lord no need to take him (it) seriously.

p.s. so far the new demon ml and the thousands year old most hated demon lord sen lou conversation are funny. I mean I like how it was ml controlling him and didn't take him seriously. it was funny.


FINAL REVIEW : FINISHED WATCHING WHOLE DRAMA, END CONCLUSION IT'S A WASTE OF EVERYTHING MONEY TIME DATA HEALTH
IN ONE WORD SKIP IT


THANK ME later

hit-and-miss but still okay drama

Story is exactly like the synopsis given by mdl
Ml is Duke as well as chief of inspector office who suffer from face blindness but this don't stop him to catch criminals (since one sences deteriorate other enhance ) plus he is smart and intelligent.
FL is traveling doctor also suffer from strange condition that every full moon for some strange reason she start menstruation which lead to body change or transform ( throughout the series she change 10 times into different people of all age and gender ,director use all popular actors for all transform nd they did a good job ?

beside them there are many other characters some are interesting some are normal all respective actors did their part of role as it was written (nothing special),(*I like ml mother character she is cute some may found her annoying but 4me she is fun her childish annoying reaction were total fun 4me ).

On acting - all actor did the normal job (just one point that I watch Ryan cheng the actor who play shang bieli other dramas his is a decent actor but for some reason I found his acting weak in this drama at some point his is okay? nd some point I was like what he is doing nd why he is doing like that ?(surely nobody gonna get any award for this seies in this department or any other?).
as for dialogue delivery nd all I'm foreigners so this doesn't bother me.

OST I don't understand language so for me music rhythm sound and some time English translate lyrics speaks louder, if I found myself hum the tune I like it, if it I don't I don't, doesn't make ost poor( judge yourself).

production value wise this drama was good they did spend money equally wisely
cinematography, color grading, overall tone, camera angle, lighting, set designing, costume, hair- makeup, sound and music, martial art fighting sequence where all good ( personally I don't have any issues , I even like all the fighting sequence ).
okay there that's it I don't have any issues in any other departments.

so let now start with why I say hit-and -miss
and credit goes to half hearted written story (contain spoiler*)
I mean overall story was not poor it's interesting but what worng with female lead condition atleast give it proper explanation director or story
writer change her condition according to their will without any explanation at first she change every full moon but later she start transforming irregular maybe as story need but atleast if they add an angle which solve the reason why the irregularities occur it be better {surely marriage or their love relationship isn't the reason or it is(if it is is poorly written)}
; second too the end director decide to mention mystery toward female lead condition if she got cured or not {it's like she will know, whenever it happen, if it happens (whatever?)} atleast they show male lead got cured miraculously.
; third last few episodes they were drag totally unnecessary especially fl mother death arch and later she surrender herself I found it so so boring it was all useless and unnecessary. ( I surely like the end of how ml found her and recognise her) but before the court fight catching the actually mastermind the detour the story take was boring and unnecessary yes they explained the fl and ml connection but overall no need of other things (killing) expect that.

I guess few less episodes won't bother anyone
or they can focus more on fl irregularities and give more proper explanation ( than love or marriage).


so this is it, my review end here hope it helps other and doesn't hurt any overally enthusiastic fan emotions.
rewatch value depends only on drama fans and drama watchers weird taste(actors fans have many other better options).


goodbye tada ?
have a nice day

I wish I got a second chance with ZLH?

I like this drama. I watched it while airing, and after it finished airing, I watched it all over again, so I already watched it two times. I like everything about this drama: actors, acting, production department,technical, non-technical aspects. Everything is fine, no issue. I like their couple Bickering.
I like the story. I wish I got a second chance like this, too. ( but do I've to die first).
many people criticize find Ml annoying well I don't sometimes I do find Fl annoying she is more confused but turns out she doesn't know many of the details of many events from her previous life incidents that led to her death (every coin has two side), besides she was not the only one to blame misunderstanding, less communication, misperception, wrong preference lead one thing to another to another and caused the whole mishappening. and in second life let's not forget she was 40 year old soul in 18 year body. plus, as the princess, she was taught to show no emotions.
so it's okay.
besides, if we talking about the most annoying person, the award goes to SML. OMG, he was pure torture; I'm glad he died. He was stubborn as a bull and glad he committed suicide. Zero remorse for him. ML and FL both told him that he could stop now but he didn't. even after everything, at the last moment when ml gave him his way out he choose to commit suicide what a waste of a second chance.
Lastly, if you are going through reviews to make decisions to watch or not u can stop here. surely u can give atleast one chance to this drama rest depend on ur personal choice.
Goodbye take care
