Well how do I start. I watched the first Anime, I read the novel and the manga. Honestly I didn't know what to expect since China banned BL content but wow the feelings they have for each other even without a kiss or touching is so good acted that I felt speechless half of the time. I didn't want to watch it till the end now I am sad and want more...
Story: The story is pretty much the same as the novel and the manga which was suprising for me since most novel dramas always get changed up at most parts. Of course the bl aspect is not their but like I said they show it (like Lan Zhan waiting for Wei Ying to return after he died, they way they look at each other and so on). The only huge change from the novel/manga/anime was that in the drama Wei Ying personally knows Xingchen which isn't the case in the anime. In the anime lan zhan is telling him the story about him.
Acting/Cast: The Cast is brilliant every actor did such a good job but honestly I was so happy to see Wang Yibo here (I was such a big UNIQ trash) and his acting was top-tier. He didn't had as much lines as Xiao Zhan (the untamend behind the scenes) the character development was huge from a cold Lan sect kid who follows only the rules of his clan to someone who is only on Wei Yings side to protect him and uncover the truth.
Music: God the music is everything I even downloaded all of the osts but we all agree that the WangXian is the best ost ever I cried so much everytime the song played... Also Xiaos & Yibos solo songs are so good no need to say much the music is a masterpiece itself. Yibo's song is still my favorite you can feel how hurt he is for waiting for his love to return to him.
Rewatch value: Excuse me? Of course y'all can't believe how sad I was when I watched the last episode and realized that this is the end. I will rewatch this more than once.
Overall: Honestly a masterpiece. You have to watch it.
