Amazing show,I watched all episode in a two weeks! never have I felt so attached to a story and characters, I love it. The heavenly maiden/white mountain village aspect to the show is the best parts for me, as it's such beautiful scenery and gives an air of peace, which shows you that's all Xue wu wanted for the rest of the country was a place like her hometown.
I wish that she got to develop her granma skills a bit more, actually I wish the granma stepped up she could of prevented a lot of stuff from happening. Xue wu she was kind and helped a lot of people if only she had helped herself a bit more and went with her instincts instead of giving the benefit of the doubt to people who don't deserve it she was too good a really well played main character. The only thing I can say is I wish some episodes expanded her potential of the divine sorceress it would of created a bit more fantasy for my liking as in the earlier on episodes she was so intelligent and witty which made it fun to watch she was a step ahead.
The story was so beautiful to watch and grow with I like how many things start to make sense even though it's not very logical at times. anyway I got to say I loved it all the good and bad and I could talk about the ending but wouldn't want to give away this story all I can say it was emotionally heart wrenching and a powerful performance there are just so many paths that they could of played out and scenarios which played in my mind, yes a more happier one.
I enjoyed the characters each to there own. The king of Zhou has got to be one my favourites as well as Xiao dong there characters were so selfless and sacrificed a lot. My favourite was Xiao dong because he was just funny and brilliant to watch as well as fifth prince they made it more light hearted at times which you needed after seeing zheng er appear and the weirdo was just so moving I think I enjoyed watching him more than anyone else sometimes as he was a very deep character that's when he really became himself when he was around xue wu they had a really special relationship I could see that she wish she could of pursued it further but wasn't in her heart everything fell into place for every character by the end!
The cast couldn't of done a better a job, the main characters Gao chang gong and Xue wu were so romantic to watch and it didn't feel too forced or mushy, I did hope for fourth prince to realize sooner things going on around him which made me really frustrated with his character although the relationship with him and Xue wu was just very sincere and beautiful I wish also that they were selfish like there babysitter said because they deserved it! Okay Zheng er and Gao wei god they made my blood boil so they must of acted their socks off, Zheng er was so devious I only wish that Xue wu leanred her lesson already and figured out how she really was and out witted her as in they knew she was pulling a lot of the strings behind the scenes. Everyone were so good in their roles. Such an awesome cast.
Music was very touching and played well with the scenes, the ost is just so easy to listen to and remind me of this great love story when being played. At the start I kept skipping into the content past the opening scene as I was zooming past the first 15 episodes but later as it was drawing to a close watched the opening and ending music as I knew it was going to end and just listening to the music and the scenes were really moving for me.
As in the rewatch value we will see as I plan to watch with my mum again. I would like to watch again anyway so this gives me a extra reason lol.
I have definitely fallen in love with this show and hope I find something just as good as this is now one of my favourite shows. Watching this was very moving on every level and was such a great journey with the main characters, the show delivered. I am glad I decided to watch Prince of Lan Ling.
