TOO MUCH "ME TOO" SYNDROME

Took Tencent quite a few years to wrap their head around creating a 3Lives3Worlds (aka Eternal Love) clone. I'm simply shocked at the speed it took for Tencent to now create a Word of Honor clone.

You see, Tencent had always been a "me too" company. You should see their other works. A lot of their anime derive from classic Japanese anime series. Anyone remember Ranma 1/2? Tencent has a clone of that work called Fox Spirit Matchmaker. Anyways, back to this series, which definitely is Tencent's version of Word of Honor.

PROS:
- Good cinematography
- Excellent CGI and effects
- FL kicks ass

CONS:
- Yang Yang doesn't give out the vibes of a Martial Master. His moves very clumsy like someone who never learned martial arts. Does he even train in martial arts before taking on such roles?
- Cheesy dialogues
- Cliche story gimmicks to drive plot forward
- Feels too much like an idol drama

NOT MY CUP of TEA

This drama is way too serious.

Give me a break, I only watch stuff to be entertained not to see the male lover murder his female partner and repeat ad nauseum via reincarnation. *Rolls eyes* Journey of Chongzi, I'm looking at ya!

Light-hearted stuff like The Melee Mage, and Fights Break Sphere (2023) I highly approve. Depressing, sad, overly melodramatic crap like Fights Break Sphere (2018), The King's Avatar, The Longest Promise, and The Last Immortal can all go to hell!

The reason I'm even giving this 3 stars instead of 1 because kudos it's Tencent visual effects magic.

The other thing I didn't like the FL lead is too strong, the story is SOLELY about her. Here the ML is just her accessory! I hate this kind of crap. BUT if we look at Princess Agents, the story was very much about the ML as much as the FL. Zhao Liying is the only female lead I highly approve for female-centric dramas because her TV series always give importance to the ML as well! Zhao Lusi and co can all go to hell. I swear I will never watch another Xiao Zhan nor Zhao Lusi drama ever again...
