Even though I have just completed this drama which was 1 year later after this drama was aired, I think it's still worth re-watching if you are a great fans of Games of Throne or Lord of The Rings. Initially when I started watching this drama, I have no idea and I think it linked to Novoland - Castle in the Sky but I was wrong as this story Novoland - Eagles Flag has nothing related to Novoland - Castle in the Sky. So I did some research and found out that there are few writers/authors to these Novoland series and each of them wrote different genres e.g. for Novoland - Eagles Flag, Wings of Wind and Tribes and Empires it's from the same author that is Jiang Nan. My suggestion is before you watch this drama read thru this link : https://liuhaoranintl.com/2019/05/30/an-introduction-to-novoland-eagle-flag/ to get an idea of the whole story.
I have read many reviews saying that the ending of this drama is not completed as it just ended like that hanging in the air. After reading thru the link which I have provided above then I understand why this drama ended with hanging in the air. The reason is the original story itself was not completed by the author, Jiang Nan!
Anyway I was very very very impressed by this drama in every aspect from CGI, casting, landscaping, costumes and makeup. Everything looks superb and amazing. Not even one dragging scene as each episode comes and goes with different story. I am even more impress with the acting skill by those young and inexperience lead actors and actresses, as I have know that Liu Hao Ran is only in his 20's which has not much acting experience and same goes to Song Zu Er and Chen Ruo Xuan (he also acted in Novoland - Castle in the Sky as the genius who love to solve maze). All these young actors & actresses do not played main roles in drama series at this moment and this drama is a break thru for all of them to get a better exposure and acting experience. The romance in this drama too is very unique as you will find that the lead actress - Yu Ran do not fall for the lead actor - Lv Gui Cheng @ Asule but she falls for Ji Yeh instead! It's very rare in cdramas to find lead actress does not fall for lead actor and the other supporting actor has so many ladies falling for him.
If you have watched GOT then you will find similarities of this Novoland - Eagle Flag (minus the dragons from GOT). I hope to see the author, Jiang Nan continues to write this Novoland - Eagle Flag perhaps in sequels as originally this Novoland - Eagle Flag itself has 6 volumes of books. I hope to see more on Yu Ran - Wings Tribe, Princess Xiao Zhou who as becomes the Empress for the Eastern Land Capital how her roles evolves and Ji Ye if he hands over the Tianqu chief position back to Asule as Asule has pass this position to Ji Ye before he goes back to his grassland (Northern) and finally to see if Asule goes back to the Eastern Land Capital. Just keep my fingers cross that in future I get to see the continuation or sequel to this drama or else I will just be contented with the ending of this drama in this manner.
