Delightful Bromance

I really lucked out on stumbling into this series. I had no expectations other than this being a bromance. This story is such a good binge of chemistry and visuals.

The story was cute and I like that they didn’t delve into their backstory of why they had a falling out 10 years ago to fill in with unnecessary scenes. I mean I much rather have the John Woo style Gun fight at episode 4 than that.

I really enjoyed the story of taking down the Japanese during their occupation in China. Yup, I think the Japanese are horrible since they were lethal during their occupation of China and South Korea. I’m glad for the ending because payback was so satisfying.

I really hope there will be a season 2 of this series. It was left open ended for a possible season 2 and even season 3 where our heroes Guan Yu and Weijie take down more Japanese baddies with the help of Li Tao.
