Love and Destiny. 8

Story: 9

Acting: 10

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: Ashes of Love (cdrama) ; Love to Redemption (cdrama) ; Eternal Love (cdrama)

Oooh where to start with this one. Well if you’re really not a wuxia fan then you’re probably not going to care for this one. It’s very reminiscent to other wuxia’s and done very well. The overall execution of everything is spot on. It’s very long, as is other wuxia’s, 60 episodes long. The first half for me was excellent, the middle where the whole mortal (proving trials part) take place is kinda boring at times, then it picks back up quickly again towards the last half. It’s your typical God of War love story done really really well. The chemistry between the main leads were perfect even though I’ll admit I did have a bit of second male syndrome even though I knew it was doom from the start.

Chen Xiaoxi's sister, Xiao Hetao, is simple and kind. She discovers that Li Jianwei came for revenge, and dies to resolve the hatred between the two.

Characters:

Li Jianwei. Twenty years old, the youngest son of General Li Fei, he is loved by the whole family, standing like an orchid and a jade tree, smiling like the bright moon. He should have had a bright future, but his fate changed overnight. In order to get revenge, he went undercover to Weishan, enduring humiliation and patiently executing his plan step by step.

Chen Xiaoxi. At the age of twenty, we meet the young master of Weishan Guigu. He was born pure but had evil eyes. Under his lively and sunny appearance, his face looked like that of a devil's. In fact, he was rough but kind, and treated people with sincerity. Unfortunately, fate played a cruel joke on him and his mother died.

Xiao Hetao. At the age of seventeen, Chen Xiaoxi rescued a human child from a wolf pack. Innocent and romantic, she was very simple and naive. Gui Rong and others gave Xiao Hetao the purest and most innocent living environment, but she hoped to resolve the hatred of everyone with her own power.

Princess Qingyuan. Thirty-four years old, a graceful and elegant lady, smart and tenacious. She was in love with Chen Dawang when she was young. After Chen Dawang's death, she firmly refused marriage arranged by the magistrate's office and spent many years in Zhejiang. While helping Li Jianwei to take revenge, Qingyuan, the deputy envoy of the Chang'an Supervisor Zi Ke, has been trying to find out the truth about Jian Jishan from 20 years ago.

Chen Dawang. At the age of 38, we meet the leader of Guigu in Huishan. Twenty years ago, he was a major general in the Loyal and Brave Army led by Chen Weishan. Entrusted by the general, Chen Dawang and his party lived in seclusion in Guigu for twenty years, just to avenge the Loyal and Brave Army and reveal the truth to the world one day.

Sizhou. 24 years old, a descendant of the Loyal and Brave Army, he was a martial arts expert but became blind in two days. Because he was indebted to the Lord of Qingyuan, he stayed by his side and waited for investigation. While helping Li Jianwei to get his revenge, he also hoped to find out the truth of the old case of the Loyal and Brave Army from 20 years ago.

Wan Qianhong. Thirty-eight years old, owner of Baihua Villa, with mysterious martial arts and deceitful tricks. When she was young, she fell in love with Li Pu, who concealed his identity. Later, Li Xifei and Huang Jueda broke off all ties with Wan Qianhong. Since then, Wan Qianhong deeply hated Li Pu and all men in the world. Behind the hatred, Wan Qianhong missed her daughter so much that she mistakenly recognized Xiao Hetao as Zaotian's daughter. In the end, they ended up loving each other but not being able to be together.

Shi Tou. Eighteen years old, a good martial brother of Chen Xiaoxi, grew up in Jianweishan. He is the beloved son of Uncle Hua and Aunt Hua, with a simple and straightforward personality. He was happy and naive until Xiaohe died. The joy he did not even have time to express became the biggest regret in Shi Tou's life.

[the-monkey-ruler]

Could you please tell us about the kings of the Underworld, their functions and if there is a kind of rank? I don't know if you talked about that. I just remember that one of them really liked pumpkins.

I can't say that I really know much about the ten kings off the top of my head. Most of my knowledge comes from Wukong threatening to beat one of them if they didn't get his underworld paperwork fast enough.

But I'll post what I can read what I can.

In the first palace King Guang of Qin, Jiang Xin, specializes in longevity, premature death the registration of, birth and death in the human world; unified management of punishment in the underworld, and good and bad karma in the next life. The Ghost Judge's Hall is located in the middle of the sea, outside Wojiao Stone, and due west on the black road of Huangquan.

In the second hall, King Li of Chujiang, Li Wen, at the bottom of the sea, under the Wojiao Stone in the south in charge of the Great Living Hell (i.e., the Ice Hell of Peiyi Pavilion). The criminals who fall into this category are those who have violated moral ethics, violated the law and discipline, committed countless crimes, and will not regret it until death.

In the third hall, Emperor Yu of the Song Dynasty, Yu Qin, at the bottom of the sea, under the Wojiao Stone in the southeast in charge of the Black Rope Hell. Those who commit chaos or create disputes in this world go to this hall.

In the fourth hall, King Lu of the Five Senses, Lü Dai, is in charge of the Hell at the bottom of the sea, the land of Hell under the Wojiao Stone in the east. Responsible for the Great Hell and the Blood River Hell. People who evade taxes and commit economic fraud go to this temple.

In the fifth hall King Yama, Bao Zheng, at the bottom of the sea, under the Wojiao Stone in the northeast also in charge of the Great Hell. Originally in the first hall, but because of his excessive sympathy for sinners, he was transferred to this hell. Those that fight for fame and gain, use any means to deceive, seduced the public, was ungrateful, repay kindness with hatred, or was a rapist is treated like a beast.

In the sixth palace King Bi of Bian Cheng, Bi Yuanbin, is in charge of the bottom of the sea, the Great Hell under the Wojiao Stone in the north. Responsible for summoning hell and the city of vain death. Those who complain about heaven and earth and urinate in front of the north go to this hall.

In the seventh hall, King Taishan, Dong He, is in charge of the great seabed, the great hell of Renu under the Wojiao Stone in the north of Ding. King Taishan is in charge of the brain-heating hell. Those who use corpses to make medicine and sow discord between relatives go to this hall

In the eighth hall, King Dushi, Huang Zhongyong, is in charge of the Great Hell at the bottom of the sea, under the Wojiao Stone in the west. Specializes in the hot brain hell. If people in the world do not know filial piety, do not care for their relatives, do not bury their relatives when they die, or make their parents and aunts frightened, depressed, and troubled, etc.

In the Ninth Hall, King PingPing, Lu You, is under the Wojiao Stone in the southwest. In charge of the great undersea world, the Abi Hell. Those who have committed the "Ten Unwholesome Deeds" will in the Abi Hell suffer eternal suffering.

The tenth hall, The King Xue Qi, Xue Li, the palace is located outside the Wojiao Stone in the underworld, due east, facing the world of five turbidities. Is responsible for distinguishing reincarnations based on the reports from the above hells.

I can't say that I saw anything about pumpkins in these but I did just mostly skim the material. I would say read each of the individual articles (I put the link in their names) yourself if you wanna get more detailed but otherwise, this should cover their responsibilities and which hall belongs to who. I can't say if this is a 'rank' as they are all kings but the numbered hall can show an urgency of which king takes on a more suitable role for themselves. They all work together after all so there isn't really a rank of higher or lower, just different departments.

Can I get a small synopsis of thunderbolt fantasy? It looks interesting

Okok I'll try to be brief. Our story is set in Dong Li, a country where in the past there used to be a war between humans and demons, so humans forged powerful magical swords that could ward off demons, and this results in demons being successfully banished from human realm.

In present time, demons are gone but the powerful swords still exist, and shrines are built to protect these swords from falling to the hands of evil. One guardian of such shrines, Dan Fei (green) and her brother (light blue) was attacked by an evil group (yellow) who wants to steal the sword they're guarding. Her brother sacrificed himself so Dan Fei could escape. During her run, she ran into Shang Bu Huan (red), a traveler who just arrived there, who decided to protect her after being convinced by Lin Xue Ya (violet) to help her.

Shang managed to drive off the mooks, but the evil group is still hunting Dan Fei, so she begged Shang to go on a quest to defeat them for good. Taking a pity for the poor girl and having his arm twisted being convinced by Lin Xue Ya, Shang agreed to help. They later assembled a team to fight the evil group, including a one-eyed archer and his plucky brother, a flamboyant assassin and and a demon(!) necromancer, each having their own strengths and quirks, they go on a journey together to defeat the evil group... But it won't be easy due to many difficulties and conflicts they would face along the way!

This is very brief spoiler free synopsis for season 1. It starts a bit slow but ramps up immediately halfway the season, and there are many plot twists and surprising developments. Gen Urobuchi, the guy famous for Fate series and Madoka Magica is the one who created the series and wrote the story, so if you're familiar with his works you might be able to tell things are gonna be crazy!

Completed 'Surname' Polls

This is where I take several characters from different Chinese media (mostly cnovels and cdrama) and run a poll on which one is the 'best'. What does best mean? It's up to you! Whether you love them, are intrigued by their characters, love to hate them, or they're your '2 second blorbos whose personality you made up wholesale', these are all reasons for you to vote for your favs!

NB: the surnames are not exactly the same in all the cases, as often they will be a different character. I am, however, grouping them all together otherwise things got more complicated.

This post is for the polls which have finished running and can no longer be voted in (since I have realised that I'm quickly approaching the limit for hyperlinks in the original masterlist).

Jiu Chen vs Jing Xiu in the mortal world

Just to be clear: there is no competition. In terms of power, clarity of thought, position, ability, and looks, how can Jing Xiu compare? (Let's not even get into acting level of Chang Chen and Li Dong Xue. The disparity is too great.) However, act 2 deliberately pits the two characters against each other. It's possible the writer did this just to highlight how inadequate Jing Xiu is and to hurry him along thr path to demonization, but it could also be for comedy. It's both fitting and funny that their battle happens when their powers are at their lowest.

JC is trying to stay alive, find/fight the demon lord, avoid detection from idiot Thunder, suppress Lin Mo's demon aura, fulfill his responsibilities as the God of War, and engage in this petty battle with JX at the same time. Jing Xiu is trying to carry out his revenge, pretend to care about Ling Yue and Bao Qing, manipulate Zhong Hao, be a fake-ass good guy in front of Lin Mo, and try to overpower Jiu Chen. As you can see, I have absolutely no objectivity when in comes to Jiu Chen. He is number one in my heart. The best male character that has ever graced the screen.

Playing music in the night when Lin Mo is trying to sleep. Not harmful but annoying as hell.

Says he and A'mo have mutual affection. Since when? She made it clear repeatedly that she has no such feelings for you. Liar.

Makes no attempt to protect people from the Taowu beast thing. Like, he really hid with A'mo in the shop after he froze Zai on the street. Despicable.

JX has always just assumed that Lin Mo loves him. This level of presumption and delusion is unrivaled (except maybe Yuan Tong).

This nasty punk gave her his life bead without asking her if she wanted to tie the rest of her life to him and acted like it was a great act of love and sacrifice. HE IS SO GROSS. I cannot understand anyone who says his actions are romantic. BLECH!!!

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love (在暴雪时分)

Yet another one. As you can see I love a fluffy, calm, feel-good romance show and here is another one that I can add to that list. Amidst a Snowstorm of Love made by the same showrunner as Love Me, Love My Voice, was another success in creating the sweetest meet cute and showing the most wonderful relationship between two people. This show was cute on top of cute on top of cute, and I was in love with the characters, with the romance, just every little bit. 

My Rating: 10/10

Episodes: 30

Country: China

Genre: Meet Cute Romance with Billiards

Aired: Feb 2nd, 2024- Feb 14th, 2024

Cast:

Leo Wu as Lin Yi Yang

Zhao Jin Mai as Yin Guo

Wang Xing Yue as Meng Xiao Dong

Ding Xiao Ying as Lin Lin

Chen Jing Ke as Jiang Yang 

Dong Zi Fan as Wu Wei

Wang Run Ze as Li Qing Yan

Han Dong Lin as Chen An An

Wang Jia Xuan as Meng Xiao Tian

Synopsis:

Yin Guo is a professional billiards player in nine- ball, and she has a tournament in Hel, however, she came a few months earlier to scope out the place as Meng Xiao Tian (her cousin) was planning to attend school there. 

Yin Guo meets Lin Yi Yang during a snowstorm where they are stranded at a bar. Lin Yi Yang fell in love at first sight. He tries to help out the cousins by getting them a cab, and thus starting their journey of getting to know each other. 

This drama was adapted from the web novel “Zai Bao Xue Shi Fen” (在暴雪时分) by Mo Bao Fei Bao (墨宝非宝), who is also the author of the novel “Really, Really Miss You” which inspired Love Me, Love My Voice. 

Beware of Spoilers Moving Forward!!!!!!

What Episode did the Main Couple Start Dating?

It’s kinda like alluded that they are essentially together after Episode 6, however, Yin Guo still questions if they are in a relationship in Episode 9 LOL which caught me off guard because the way she asks him is by asking if he has a girlfriend at school or something???? but I understand why she was asking. She was just clarifying what they were. He then clarifies that he’s serious about her and that’s I guess technically when they were official. 

Misunderstandings?

They have a minor dispute in Episode 18. This is it though LOL. They have no other misunderstandings other than this. This misunderstanding also only lasts less than an episode.

Episode 18 is when Yi Yang was trying to toast Yin Guo’s mom as a way to try to create amends for his prior actions as a child, however, Yin Guo’s mom still acted extremely cold towards him. 

Yin Guo felt like Yi Yang was treating her more cold because of her mom and she walked away from him creating a rift between them. 

In Episode 19, they solve this misunderstanding. Yi Yang came to try to make up with her the next morning but she had already left for training for 2 months. He texts her that he’s there, and she calls him, and she wonders why he didn’t call the same night and because of that she got even more mad the next morning and left without saying anything. He basically gives in and says “I miss you, I’ll go now, bye” and let me tell you his response made me so sad and I felt bad like I stood him up * sobs *. 

Yin Guo talks to the driver who is taking everyone to training, and they have a sweet relatable moment, and he asks her why she didn’t stay at home an extra day to relax. She takes this as an opportunity to go back and make up with Yi Yang, and takes a cab back to him. 

Love Triangles?

There are no love triangles. hehe

There are love rivals but, are they really rivals? (the answer is no lol) We have Li Qing Yan who likes Yin Guo, he’s one of Meng Xiao Dong’s disciples (Meng Xiao Dong is Yin Guo’s cousin). Then, we have Cheng Yan who likes Lin Yi Yang, she is a member of Dongxin City, which is the club that Lin Yi Yang was a part of when he was young. 

Second Main Leads

Honestly, were they really the second main leads? LOL. I barely understood how it was listed as such. Their romance was subtle, and they were just there. I didn’t really care about them tbh ahahahaha. Yin Guo was very invested in it though, however, I wasn’t really bothered.

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love Ending

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love has a cute ending where they both find out that they had anonymous accounts where they only talked about each other. After the Asian Games, he takes the core friend group on a trip. During this trip, he proposes to her while singing the main song of the show jskjndfkjsfkjs (i’m not screaming you are). He did this sweet comparison where he compared his life to the Truman Show and said that the world he created around himself in Hel was fake, and this girl aka Yin Guo, shows up and breaks his reality. He proposes and she says yes right away and then they have a 3 year time skip and it’s just a massive reminiscing scene in Hel. 

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love Review- Meet Cute with that Shy, Awkwardness that evokes the feeling of falling in love

This show in my eyes is a 10/10. I enjoyed basically every second of this beautiful, charming, wholesome romance between two green forest characters. If I’m being completely honest, the majority of the characters in this show is a whole green forest. The romance was just romancing. From the meet-cute, to the awkwardness of getting to know each other, to the hand holding, kissing, communicating, long distance relationship, rejoicing of being physically together again, growing and succeeding together. Everything was just done so well, so elegantly, I was squealing like a highschool girl in my seat watching this show. 

The billiards plot was also extremely fun for me to watch, as I was not really well versed in billiards nor even knew there were multiple types. Lin Yi Yang’s plot with Dongxin City and his coach was really heartwarming to watch and just seeing him becoming more understanding and growing in character was just wonderful to watch. 

This show was the most perfect watch for me. I felt like I was falling in love at the same time as the characters. The cinematic scenes with the actors that had amazing chemistry and wonderful acting skill, just made the experience that much better. 

Amidst a Snowstorm of Love is a must-watch for romance watchers who love shows with supportive main leads, supportive friends, little misunderstandings, a lot of kissing and chemistry, and watching two people just fall in love.

SIC - Chapter 35

Xue Li leaned back against the chair, silent for a long time, her eyes fixed on the hand holding the pen. Chun Xin thought she was unwilling to help, so she clung to her, acting spoiled. She wrapped her arms around her neck and pressed her cheek against Xue Li’s. “Dong Dong, let’s help him. He’s so pitiful. He saved me before, so let’s help him.” Having just eaten some snacks, her mouth was…
