She reunites with her adoptive siblings and navigates around Wen Huai's machinations to kill Wen Yu. (Source: frankly at MyDramaList)

Well that was satisfying...

Okay first off.. amazing. Saying it loudly and very proud. Now I've seen Zanilia in a few dramas now and my favorite to date is Boss & Me. This will probably be my favourite with her being a basic bad ass.

Spoilers because I tend to recap awesome lol.

Now the music is awesome! Perfectly suitable and with so much life and energy.

Actors so far I'm a bit on the fence aside from Zanilia and her friend who died near the end of the episode.

Anyways we open with her basically informing the viewers by telling herself that she has no recollection of who she is. We are shown flashbacks but no idea quite yet. I mean as a viewer I can make inferences.
So we then see the group of men of the show that have been presented going to go and find the winner of their bet.

Their bet consists of hunting wolves and maids. Each maid has an initial of one of the men. Whichever of them has the most maids remaining is the winner.

I love how they paced the first episode. We even get to see Zanilia go badass and start killing the wolves and dodging a few arrows. I like it so much that I'm contemplating just straight diving in even though I know it's not done airing nor not completely subbed. (Note: I don't like doing that, especially with C-dramas. It's basic hell for the kind of viewer I am)

Anyways it ended on a little bit of a strange note... but with that note I am fully invested to keep going. Overall I really enjoyed the episode and if I like the first episode at this level and I've seen the opening song over 25 times before I even started the drama... I'd say it's safe to say I'm going to be on a really fun ride. Full of intrigue, politics, martial arts, revenge, assassination (attempts and successes), war, misunderstandings, and love.
