Solid Start, But Loses Momentum Midway!

Starts off with a lot of hype—Xukai and Esther Yu are awesome as leads, and the whole mystery with amnesiac Yue Qi and Yue Jin Zhao has you hooked at first. The action scenes and the story's vibe are pretty solid too.

But honestly, as the episodes go on (and there are 36 of them), it starts to drag. The whole "who am I?" search for the male lead gets kind of old, and by the end, I was really hoping for a bigger payoff. The ending felt a bit flat after all that build-up.

That said, the actors are great, and the soundtrack totally adds to the mood, especially if you’re into the LBFAD vibe. The character dynamics are hit or miss—some might find Yue Qi’s personality a bit much, but her growth is cool to see. Xukai’s double role was interesting, but it didn’t feel like they made the most of it.
