Overall, I liked the series, although some of the details and characters weren’t elaborate enough, the ending was confusing and kissing. I’d rather not go into detail about the CGI effects, I would just say that they did surprisingly poorly in some places, but there were scenes where it was done well.Of course, there was a directorial and screenwriting flaw in this series, but a flawless piece never exists. The music ... both the opening and the closing were only divine, the opening music has been a big favorite ever since.
And there were the more meaningful, more dramatic scenes where music was also well chosen. There were weaker episodes, but there were some very emotional, dramatic and already a bit romantic episodes where you essentially showed who was most important to him. There was a sense of camaraderie and teamwork, but sometimes I also saw a pull apart.
I don’t deny I liked the chemistry and connection between the two protagonists (which of course makes everyone “faint.” All the actors did a good job compared to the character, there were only a few characters that became (for me) forgetful (Da Qing, Zhu Hong, the ghost couple, Jin Ling), because they were basically just there, but I didn't experience any character development and they added quite a bit to the story.
What really caught on in this series is the relationship between Guo and Chu. I found myself starting to love them and their relationship more than any other character. Somehow I noticed the contrast more than them and then the process as they fell in love with each other. Real bromance, even a secondary pair. I would have rather put an end to the way Little Guo gets hurt, because maybe he would have been much more "fit" systematically into the story, I think
So, all in all: the end could have been better worked out (like Guo how he became a leader, why he leads new people and not the old team, why Yunlan's father suggested that it might be, Guo saves the world .. I would have been happier if Yunlan and Guo had even talked to each other because Yunlan was dying, last wish, something like that, it could have been a more emotional end to Chu and Guo's completion, it could have been the hug, not in the dream., and..Lin Jing's character was redundant he thinks to bring it back..because he said goodbye..so it was stupid.And that torment on the part of Shen Wei and Yunlan ... argh..etc. So the end is very confusing for me ...
Well, this series isn't necessarily spectator for me again, because of the mistakes mentioned above ... and the excessive torment of the main couple in the end ... and that last scene ... absurd ...!
I prefer to look at the Guo and Chu scenes again because they showed a lot of character development and I was better able to identify with them, and as I may have written before, their relationship is much more realistic and elaborate than that of a “perfect, fateful main couple”.
Sorry for the long writing.Good health everyone.

Overall enjoyable, with some very strong moments
Some people might think my rating is way too low or way too high, but I have mixed emotions about this show. One weakness is the special effects- however, I usually don’t judge a show too much on this, because of course they do the best they can with the budget that they have. I also enjoyed the show throughout, but sometimes the plot seemed to get a bit off track to me... like the ghost couple were sweet and cute but then they suddenly died and that was that.However, there were many aspects that I personally found very interesting plot wise; I thought it was quite emotional with Yun Lan lost his sight, for instance. I also thought the hospital games scenes were pretty intense, as well as many of the Underground scenes. I also loved the relationship between Shen Wei and Yun Lan, obviously. It was fun to see Yun Lan regard Shen Wei as a normal meek professor...then to become suspicious of him...then to find out his secret and watch after him...
I was surprised how much I ended up loving the relationship between Guo Chang Cheng and Chu Shu Zhi. I loved their “enemies” (or timid kid annoying and being scared by an angry man) to brothers progression. When Shu Zhi thought that Chang Cheng died, that was really quite brutal and emotional.
The most impactful part of the show for me was the ending. I hadn’t read the novel and didn’t expect the ending to be that depressing. It gutted me on multiple levels; even just from how it was filmed, with Ye Zun suddenly appearing in a different room when he and Shen Wei died. I didn’t even realize they actually died at first. Of course, the two leads meeting in heaven or space time or whatever it was, before continuing on, just broke me. Another one of the most heartbreaking moments was when they showed Yun Lan continuing to live and work with his team- I thought that he had somehow ended up surviving. Then it was explained how his body is just being possessed by that other man, and that he really is dead.
For me this show was never unenjoyable at all, but there were a lot of ups and downs and moments that were just that- enjoyable but not much more. But, this show also had a lot of very interesting, emotional, and impactful parts as well. I watched this a while ago, but even now, the introduction song makes me nostalgic and the closing credits song makes me full on emotional. Overall this show wasn’t perfect, but it was still special.

Fantasy Cencored bL
Menceritakan seorang pria bernama Zhao Yun Lan yang merupakan ketua SID ; sebuah grup yang membasmi mahluk astral atau entitas asing yang berasal dari dunia bagian dalam. Di sisi lain, Shen Wei merupakan kesatria berjubah hitam yang merupakan (polisi) yang berasal dari dunia bagian dalam yang menangkap, membawa dan menghukum mahluk dunia bagian dalam yang melakukan kejahatan dan kriminal di dunia manusia. Shen Wei dan Zhao Yun Lan bekerja sama dalam melakukan pekerjaan ini - tetapi ada yang Shen Wei sembunyikan, apa itu? saksikan series ini. Dari segi CGI sudah cukup bagus dan bisa dinikmati oleh indra visual kita dengan baik walaupun tidak se-spektrakuler Marvel Studios misalnya. Dari segi cerita sudah cukup detail dan mudah difahami walaupun ada beberapa episode dibuat terlalu rumit, dan berbelit-belit. Dari segi romansa, hanya menampilkan adegan bromance dan romansa puppy-Love ala-ala friend zone. dan dari segi latar, ternyata cukup baik karena menampilkan beberapa romansa China Town yang unik. Ada main role lain yang menjadi penguat bL romance yaitu Gao Changchen dan Chu Shu Zhi ; keduanya memiliki karakter yang unik dan sangat berbeda satu sama lain membuatnya menjadi menggemaskan dan sangat menarik untuk diikuti kisahnya, mereka berdua merupakan anggota SID yang sering ditugaskan bersama. Apakah series ini rekomended? saya tidak dapat membuat simpulan.'Considerați utilă această recenzie?
Good actors maketh not a good show without good execution of the story.
The graph of my interest in this show will definitely resemble the cracks left by an earthquake if I ever plotted it. So why/how did I finish 40 episodes? Because this show is strangely addictive. Even if you want to bash your head or pull your hair out for forty minutes, you are eager to see what happens next (no matter how cliché or absurd you know it's going to be) and that is this drama's strength. And that comes from the marvelous performances of the cast, who make you believe in their emotions when the story doesn't. Because the story doesn't do anything here. The only one holding all the cards is the writer/director and we see the scenes they wish to show us, how they show us and when they want to show us. That is this drama's downfall. Maybe the three directors took a thread of the story each and went their way with them and faltered when it came to tying them all up. Add in poor screenplay and editing and this is a recipe for disaster waiting to happen.Yet, the story is engaging. The main plot is scattered in pieces somewhere in between all the mess that happens but manages to take an integral part in the episode so it doesn't feel like we are wavering away from what we embarked on. The cases could have been better written or at least better presented. They often began in the last one third of an episode and continued till the first one third of another. I can't reason out why, unless it was dole out some cliffhangers and make the audience wait. Well, it worked. Episodes 10-20 are easily the best in the show. Midway through, you can take guesses at how each character's ending is going to be so it's not that shocking when the end does arrive. There are heaps of things we could have done without, though.
The actors are all amazing and the characterisation is one of the few good things, be it the two leads, SID, the humans or the Dixing-ians. I like how everyone has their quirks unrelated to the job they do. Those at SID are well sketched, but not well shown. In that respect, Zhu Hong, Sang Zan and Wang Zheng are the weakest. They appear when the directors want them to appear instead of always being a part of the group even if it's just standing in the background. Wang Zheng's story was drawn out a bit too much, and the Crow tribe leader's too little. Still, everyone is given a chance to tell their story and that keeps the plot going when the writers have used up their repertoire of cases.
Music is good and I'll only re-watch the edited portions of the two main leads for their sparkling chemistry. It's there right from the moment they first make eye contact with each other and I rewinded plenty of their sweet scenes to gush over them. This was a BL despite the lack of explicit or implicit words of romance between the leads and despite the love triangle they tried to build. I mean, if someone did for me what Shen Wei does for Yun Lan, he is definitely going to be tied to me for the next seven births as well. Shen Wei is open but silent about his feelings and Yun Lan openly and silently enjoys all the teasing he gets. Their love for each other is scattered in the story just like the plot has been. However, I'm disappointed that some of the most emotionally charged scenes are haphazardly placed at the end, which in itself is a mess.
In a nutshell, this show left me wanting for some actual BL scenes so much that I watched two others in succession but I still remember how the cat behaves like a cat even in his human form and how Guardian was reminiscent of a bad cross between Power Rangers and Supernatural. It's worth watching for the two leads, though.

Una bellissima bromance - potenzialmente splendida BL - in un contesto di scarsissima qualità
Questa serie mi fa venire in mente quelle trasmissioni televisive dove rimettono in sesto le case malandate e dove, guardando il rudere di turno dicono "questa casa ha del potenziale", mentre immaginano l'abitazione da sogno che potrebbe diventare. Ecco, con Guardian ho avuto la stessa impressione...peccato che il potenziale intravisto poi non si sia concretizzato e il rudere...beh, è rimasto un rudere.40 episodi sono tanti, tantissimi, se la qualità non merita. Sono stata ligia per la prima metà e poco oltre, poi ho cominciato a saltare intere parti a piedi pari, concentrandomi sull'unica cosa meritevole di tutta la serie: la bromance tra i due protagonisti.
Bromance davvero molto bella, che sarebbe stata una BL ancora più splendida, sia per la caratterizzazione dei personaggi rispetto al contesto, sia per la chimica tra i due attori. Il resto, però, è davvero un po' da dimenticare. Faccio anche fatica a infierire, più che altro mi sovviene una compassionevole pena. La serie vuole connotarsi come un fantasy, ma la mente che ha imbastito la trama è evidentemente una mente o povera di strumenti o inesperta rispetto al genere: il filo conduttore - se così possiamo azzardarci a chiamarlo - è imbarazzante, le situazioni al limite dell'assurdo, con questioni tanto importanti da condizionare quasi il destino e la pace nel mondo gestite come scaramucce tra ragazzine. I cattivi più potenti che si siano mai visti si fermano andando a consultare i libri, portentosi oggetti magici dagli indescrivibili poteri si rintracciano facendo delle ricerche banali che sanno di gita scolastica, più che avventurose e complesse missioni alla ricerca di oggetti ben nascosti e custoditi. Insomma, è davvero un po' tutto all'acqua di rose, uno sforzo di fantasia minimo con un risultato che non può non lasciare perplessi (immaginiamoci un fantasy ideato da un bambino di 8 anni, la cui complessità e coerenza non possono non avere evidenti limiti...ecco, abbiamo inquadrato perfettamente la situazione di questa serie). Anche gli effetti speciali sono un po' basic, appena accettabili, del resto il drama è del 2018, con un ventennio in meno e i limiti della tecnologia dell'epoca sarebbe stato più che comprensibile, ma in un prodotto nato praticamente l'altro ieri, anche no. Come dicevo, l'affinità e il legame tra i protagonisti è l'unico punto davvero apprezzabile della serie ma, anche questo, nella seconda parte mi è sembrato un po' calare (forse non tanto rispetto al livello di interazione tra i due quanto alle scene a loro dedicate, in molti episodi davvero scarse se non assenti, a favore di altri eventi assurdi che - in cuor loro, ma solo lì - probabilmente puntavano a sviluppare e dare un senso alla trama). La sufficienza la strappa la bromance, tutto il resto sarebbe affondato come un masso in un lago. Consigliato? A stralci. Cosa mi lascia? Il desiderio di rivedere l'idea di base di questo drama, in una nuova serie fatta come si deve...

I'm not ready.
For the past 18 months I have watched and re-watched Guardian three times. Every time I stop watching I'm theast four episodes. I once saw a spoiler that broke my heart and really put me off, because it screamed, "TRAGIC ENDING".I think I'm ready now, for that ending. Although it will be painful and give me puffy eyes, I'll still watch it. I have to and you have to if you're reading this review.
Everything leading up to the last few episodes is amazing. The characters are funny and sweet and caring and such a lovely little family, that I'll make the finale all the more special. Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan are soulmates and Zhu Yilong and Bai Yu really worked hard to show that to the audience. Even though this is hella censored (what with the obvious script changes when character's mouths, voices and words don't match and along with the bts parts that should have been added to make the show 10x better), they did the best with what they were given.
It's time to say goodbye.
If you read this review: watch the show or don't watch the show. Idk. Idc. But I know I'm gonna re-watch everything for the 4th time and finish it. Then come back here and write all about it.

The best story and cast. Everyone was perfect for their roles. I knew the end even before I watched it, but, it was too addicting and sad. Even if Shen Wei and Zhao Yunlan died in the end, I was glad that they will meet again, in reincarnation. I want Ye Zun to reincarnate along with his brother, so he would live his life with his brother, even if couldn't, in his previous life. Just a little bit of misunderstanding led to tragedies of ten thousand years. I feel sorry for Ye Zun, too. He doesn't deserve such life. He just wanted his brother by his side. And the bond of Yunlan's team is what is was heart-touching. They were ready to die for each other, but, they lost their leader in the end. I can't describe in words how I felt while watching it. It was so heart-breaking in the end. But, some not every story have a good end.Considerați utilă această recenzie?

Mi aspecto favorito de Guardian puede que sea la actuación, concretamente la de los actores protagonistas. Es algo que señalan todos y que realmente creo que es remarcable. La actuación de otros secundarios también está muy bien, aunque a veces el guion fuera un poco cortapisas. Por otra parte, creo que la historia es muy original, y se entretejen en ella un cúmulo de relaciones muy variado y que nos da la oportunidad de explorar a casi todos los personajes. La OST es buenísima.
También hay aspectos negativos. El CGI es mediocre, tirando a malo en algunas escenas. La trama a veces no se sostiene por ninguna parte: se repiten cosas que no hace falta reiterar y se obvian aspectos esenciales (aunque lo paso por alto, sé que hay muchos loopholes y cambios respecto a la novela), los personajes femeninos están construidos de una forma un tanto decepcionante, pasando muchos por el filtro masculino y con obvios tintes de misoginia; el guion, como ya he dicho antes, a veces es muy forzado y coarta actuaciones potencialmente buenas. Por supuesto, la censura también es algo a considerar. Pero creo que, dadas las posibilidades que tenían, han sabido manifestar la relación entre Shen Wei y Zhao muy fielmente, a pesar de todo.
He citado más cosas malas que buenas, pero en general le doy un 9/10 a la serie. Y esto es porque la he disfrutado mucho y he llorado un montón con el final, y vaya, creo que los aspectos positivos compensan los negativos. Al final, lo que importa es que te entretenga y te conmueva. Y lo ha hecho, sin duda. Tengo ganas de darle un rewatch, pero mejor cuando me recupere emocionalmente.

Una splendida occasione mancata
Qualcuno si risentirà di quanto sto per scrivere. Pazienza.Non ce la faccio... adoro i due protagonisti ma è un po' poco per sopportare 40 episodi di questa poltiglia. Mi fermo a 26 e un po'. La logica è sconosciuta, la recitazione degli altri protagonisti è spesso caricaturale (per regia, non per mancanza di abilità), le cosiddette indagini sono risibili, gli effetti speciali hanno poco di speciale, i costumi sono mediocri, la musica si risveglia solo di tanto in tanto con un paio di bei pezzi... Il resto è profonda, profondissima noia e irritazione.
Avrei voluto vederlo finire,ma nemmeno per il bel faccino del professore riesco a sopportarne un episodio di più, figuriamoci altre 9 o 10 ore. Magari tra poco arriva qualcosa di epocale, è un po che l'aspetto, la grande rivelazione di 10.000 anni fa, il segreto del bel professore e del cosiddetto detective. Rimarrò con la curiosità.
A parte la censura assurda del governo cinese, che costringe gli sceneggiatori ai salti mortali, l'impianto del libro non può essere poi così diverso. Anche se i protagonisti si facessero due moine di più, non basterebbe a riscattare la pila di assurdità della trama, per cui nemmeno posso consolarmi andando a cercare una traduzione in inglese del libro.
L'avventura di Guardian, per quanto mi riguarda finisce qui, con tanti rimpianti per qualcosa che avrebbe potuto essere molto, molto meglio, e che invece si è rivelato poco più di un cumulo di assurdità e recitazione caricaturale. Salvi l'opening e la coppia principale, unica luce in questa oscurità. Troppo poco. Bye.

Guardian
Encontrar um drama que não apenas nos envolve, mas também nos conquista de maneira profunda é uma verdadeira joia. "Guardian" (2018) é um desses tesouros que não só prenderam minha atenção, mas também ganharam um pedaço do meu coração.Desde o primeiro episódio, fui transportado para um mundo que mistura os mistérios do sobrenatural com os dramas da vida real. A trama habilmente tecida entre a realidade moderna e a mitologia antiga cria uma experiência única que é ao mesmo tempo emocionante e intrigante. A medida que somos apresentados ao carismático detetive Zhao Yunlan e ao enigmático professor Shen Wei, fica claro que há muito mais do que aparenta. Cada episódio se desdobra como uma jornada emocional que nos leva a explorar os segredos do passado, as conexões profundas entre os personagens e os desafios que enfrentam.
O que realmente define "Guardian" à parte são os relacionamentos complexos e interligados entre os personagens. A relação entre Zhao Yunlan e Shen Wei é uma montanha-russa de emoções, um exemplo perfeito de amizade, lealdade e sacrifício. Cada olhar trocado e cada palavra dita carrega um significado profundo, nos lembrando que os sentimentos transcendem as barreiras do tempo e da existência.
A cinematografia deslumbrante e os efeitos visuais bem executados contribuem para a atmosfera mágica do drama. Cada cena é cuidadosamente construída para nos imergir no mundo sobrenatural de maneira convincente, enquanto as cenas de ação são coreografadas com maestria, adicionando um toque de adrenalina à narrativa.
"Guardian" é mais do que uma série; é uma experiência que captura nossa imaginação e nossas emoções. Eu encontrei-me ansiando por cada novo episódio, absorvendo cada momento como se fosse um tesouro precioso. Este drama chinês não só conquistou um lugar especial na minha lista de favoritos, mas também tocou meu coração de maneira profunda e duradoura.
Em um mundo repleto de dramas, "Guardian" (2018) se destaca como uma pérola rara que merece ser apreciada por todos os amantes de histórias cativantes. Se você procura um drama que mistura o real e o mágico, os mistérios do passado com as emoções do presente, não procure mais. "Guardian" é uma jornada inesquecível que ficará com você muito além do último episódio.

Maintenant je suis entrain de lire le livre et c'est encore meilleur l'histoire est mieux développé ce qui est normal et certains passages confus dans la série deviennent plus claire.
S'agissant d'un BL, la relation entre SHEN WEI ET YULAN est beaucoup plus développé.

I really wanted to love this show... I wanted to be like "wow this show was is so underrated and amazing" only to find out... I was so wrong. Lol I know everyone says the book was so much better -- and even though I haven't read it, I'm almost 100% sure I would agree with them.Guardian started out promising and kept me interested for a little bit but sadly a little less than half way through, I started falling asleep through episodes. Even though I kept dozing off, you'd think I'd miss some important information but I never did. Lol I think it didn't start getting good again until the last 3 episodes and even I'm at a loss for those because I felt like I was tripping balls. Were they supposed to be so cut scene like that? I don't understand. It jumped all over the place so many times I had to keep asking myself "what the hell just happened? What is happening?!"
I can even look past the awful CGI.. That is nothing compared to the neckbreak speed of jumping scenes they have. I felt lost way to much and it annoyed the hell out of me
I feel like this show could have been so much better. The actors all played their parts so well and I know it's not their fault they were handed a shitty script. But damn, they were robbed. Lol. They made it work though, the best they could.
That ending was a mess. A emotional gosh damn mess and I feel like it robbed everyone. The actors, the watchers... everything. That was bullshit.
