After seeing several friends enjoy this i decided to give it a try because Chinese Republic era dramas are among my favorite. The sets, costumes, and styling were excellent! The mix between science and magic was really cool too.

Until.

And here's the spoiler.

When we finally start to understand the Big Bad Guy's plan, it involves zombies. I was not expecting a zombie drama at all and it is one of my least favorite genres.
I finished the series because i wanted to see why there's a season two. But the surprise appearance of zombies really killed my enjoyment of the series.

Other Good points: i thought the cast did great. I enjoyed the relationship between De-gou (Little River God) & the Sorceress, there wasn't as much bromance as i hoped but it was still solid.
