Good acting and amazing cast, nice cinematography, pleasant costumes, although very political but the plotline is comprehensible, relatively good storytelling, very little romance, depiction of some historical figures seems mostly convincing

This is a continuation of Advisor Alliance which was about how Simayi enter into politics and his relations with the Cao family i.e Cao Cao and Cao Pi. Yang Xiu was his rival then. In season 2, early on his rival was Zhuke Liang . He served under 4 emperors and the story is about his children, political rivals, family members, even his cook. The plots are intriguing and the dialogue excellent and photgraphy is fantastic like a movie and very artistic. Every episode is enjoyable and the story is also wrapped up nicely at the end. I highly recommend this show if you like history of Three Kingdoms period and also political intrigues and live storie

Big budget epic ancient historical c-dramas based on historic figures and events. Comprising colourful iconic characters, eventful account of history, beautiful costumes and lavish sets.

Love and betrayal, political upheavals and court rivalries, fierce battles fought at the war front are features shared by these two epic productions.

Filmed in subdued colour palettes, both feature strong protagonists and antagonists whose seemingly endless machinations are played out with frightening deftness and devastating consequences.

Based on historical events, these dramas represent intense viewing that demands your absolute attention.

Both have same historic characters. But Three Kingdoms is a detailed adaptations of the famous medieval novel, it tries to tell the whole story with lots of charactrers and events of the civil war (quite slowly and dragged sometimes). Advisors Alliance mostly follows the standards of modern story telling and focuses on the events in one kingdom (Wei) and one main character - wise Sima Yi. Advisors Alliance has beatiful views and good actors.

Both are quite the same just the time or the era of both the stories Are different. Both have Historical, Romance, Action, Political, and Power Struggle in both the stories.

Both are inspired by the famous Three Kingdoms plot but aren't its adaptations, both follow the modern tradition of the costume drama about a historic character.
Cao Cao looks less rich and glamorous.

It’s not similar to “The Advisors Alliance” except that it’s an historical setting. Reminds me a bit like “Game of Thrones.” You should try it.

Both dramas center around brilliant strategists who use their tactical skills to navigate the political game. The poster image of Si Ma Yi walking the tightrope above the upturned swords is a testament for both dramas. Both have excellent cast members including actress Liu Tao (Ode to Joy's Andy) who actually has main parts in both dramas!
