Costume Fantasy (Xianxia, Wuxia, Fantasy)

Why is it apparently necessary for almost every modern xianxia to be so romance focused? 


How myopic.


Anyway...

    Really good except for that dull human arc. (What is it with mortal realm arcs in xianxia? I seem to always not enjoy them.)

  • Chinese Paladin

    3. Chinese Paladin

    Chinese Drama - 2005, 34 episodes

    7.0

    I sometimes listen to parts of the OST, which is rare when it comes to C- or K-drama and their exemplary musical mediocrity as compared to Japanese and most Western productions.

  • My Journey to You

    4. My Journey to You

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 24 episodes

    7.0
  • The Blue Whisper: Part 1

    There was once upon a time a whisper...

  • Till the End of the Moon

    6. Till the End of the Moon

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes

    6.0

    Philosophically and psychologically interesting - a pleasant surprise, giving the show some depth which xianxia usually lacks.

  • Ashes of Love

    7. Ashes of Love

    Chinese Drama - 2018, 63 episodes

    5.5

    Still has the single most stunning and shocking moment in any drama I've watched logged on this site. But the story is farcical - SPOILER - at least the FL understands it and stops the asinine madness... not that it makes up for her unfathomable actions earlier on, though...

  • The Longest Promise

    8. The Longest Promise

    Chinese Drama - 2023, 40 episodes

    5.0

    Its strongest feature is the overall aesthetic. Not usually a good thing, no matter how good it may be, for that to be so notable over aspects such as acting, direction, plots.
