Till the End of the Moon (2023)

There is a small line betweeen god and devil...

Very well made drama. The story really has potential. Impressive acting, impressive portrayal of humiliation, lack of pride and the true hearts of common people. What is portrayed as ultimate evil is actually the most sincere, strong, loving and rational between heaven and hell. The strength of character and greatness, beyond all limits, of this god, this devil god, far surpasses all other gods. His love is purer than any other. All others are indeed ants in comparison, stupid, cruel and weak in character. Even Susu pales in the face of his greatness. In fact, she has always lacked sincerity and discernment. And in the end, he even destroyed himself, needlessly. Sin will always exist. Better to have someone to watch over it and transmute it if necessary. What a loss...

Star-crossed lovers

I'll keep this short and major spoiler free, a little word of advice I can give is that if you want to leave this drama with a happy ending, end at episode 35, if you would like to see a tragic ending, watch till the end
All in all this is a very well acted story with intresting twists and turns, but I wouldn't recommend anyone to rewatch it since its a little bit predictable. I heard they cut down the episode length of it, which makes sense considering how slighly weird the editing can be at points. I think that its initial premise is good, but it unfortunatley fails to fully deliver after the halfway point. That doesn't mean its bad perse, but that it falls victim to the typical issues that plauge many c-dramas, misunderstandings for misunderstandings sake. Even when the characters are intelligent and could just clearly ask, they just don't because the writers need to prolong the story somehow.
The chemistry between the leads is good and is worth the watch, but the story can hold it back at points. Thats why i'm rating the plot 7 and the rewatch value 5, because while its very well produced, i can't ever imagine someone going through this again.
I already knew that it wouldn't be a happy ending, but I wasn't expecting it to have such a non-ending as it did. Like really? thats how you're going to make use of the final moments of the show?

At the end it happened as it was predicted

Drama is so cool...

Videography, CGI, fights, songs are way too good... Trust me its a piece of art in the world of CGI....

The story was very predictable but it was refined and it pretty much have alot of things explained. The way they explained everything in full circle is very good.

It also have philosophical touch like both male and female lead were always not thinking straight but at some point they finally started to see the full reality and accept that they were both are loved specially the male lead changed alot. His acting was on point. And his smirk was very attractive. Fl also showed anger so well like her acting is something.

2nd male lead sacrifice in both lifes were so precious but in the end he messed up a little but still understandable but 2nd fl was so evil but she also become good at the end.

3rd leads were so pretty so cute and so innocent i can't believe they will perform this good.

But china is above and beyond with CGI. I have seen good dramas with bad CGI so it was a refreshment.

Btw ML not only got tortured but also got sedated and Ra**ed by FL. And u can't change my mind ?.

Similar to Love Between a Fairy and a Devil but falls short of matching its greatness

Luo Yunxi was compelling as Tantai Jin/Devil God, cold, cunning and aloof, yet deep down having a desire to feel and understand emotions. He went through hell “killing” his mother during child birth, being hated and abandoned by his father, only to be betrayed by those whom he thought cared for him most, then cruelly bullied throughout his childhood and early adult years. It could be understood why he embraced the darkness within and chose to destroy the world considering the viciousness he’d experienced within it. Then he met the *new* Ye Xiwu. She defended and protected him. She showed him kindness and taught him love. She challenged and angered him, but she always came back to him - ultimately changing him for the better.

Though the show explored an interesting journey of war, politics, love and layers of past/future lives/identifies of our leads and the supporting characters, the show fell short with the love story which was ultimately driving the overall arc on the show. It was clear that Tantai deeply loved Ye Xiwu. Not only did he tell her, he showed her in his actions. Ironically though Ye Xiwu did many things that would be deemed as loving for Tantai, her feelings were always questionable because her actions were direct by her mission. In the end I did believe she truly cared for him but the show took too long to make this clear.

The past/future/present lives of the characters gave wonderful insight, especially the past, into why these people became who they were. However, I found I enjoyed the present storyline the most when they were in the Kingdom of Sheng, especially when it came to the love story. There was a sexy flintiness between the leads that worked so well and I could see the cold walls crumbling within Tantai. I liked seeing the connection building between them string by string. The special effects were outstanding but the show never used that grandness to create epic and unforgettable moments, which I think it should’ve had considering the content. The only moment that came close to being epic was when Tantai killed Yue Yingxin and jumped off the boat into the river. It was such an unexpected moment that was well acted and written.

One thing that annoyed me about the show was the FL going to bed in gowns she’s worn all day, dangling earrings and elaborate head dresses. No way was she getting sleep with all that stuff on. lol.

The acting was great in this. The leads had really good chemistry. When their character got serious and close there was a heat between them that II wish we’d seen more of. The story was good, not great. The ending hurt and the very last scene was bizarre, but overall this was worth watching.

Me quito el sombrero y luego me muero.

Primero que nada esta es una opinion sin orden y solo para lectura personal, para no olvidar mis memorias de emociones locas que me provocan estas historias, lo cual es un hobby para mi ser tan intensa ahsdjkashd

Estuve muy indecisa en si terminar esto o no, mas que nada porque todos los capitulos son un trayecto bastante duro
Pase de tristeza, felicidad, emocion, enamoramiento para luego caer en tristeza, llorar, sufrir y luego de nuevo felicidad y mucho fangirleo. Fue tan intenso que me canse un poquito mentalmente: tambien me culpo ami misma por ser tan emocional e intensa ahsdjsad asi que bueno es lo que hay.
Al llegar al capitulo 35 me tome un descanso de varios dias porque habia llegado a un punto en el que se sentia como estar sentado en la playa, ya en total calma: pero logicamente se veia venir que en los ultimos 5 capitulos toda la tragedia y desenlace de esto llegaria, tambien hay que ser sinceros; un final tan feliz no se veia y yo estaba mentalizada pero lo que me dieron si fue algo inesperado.
Comentando primero eso, el desenlase me confundia mucho; por momentos creia entender pero derepente pasaban mas cosas que me hacian quedarme de ???? (al final resulte asertar pero pff, que dolor).
Supongo que esa era la intencion pero bueno, no voy a mentir que tuve que verme un video para tratar de entender que rayos paso alli con esa escena final taaan confusa. Al parecer es ilegal en c hacer mas de 40 capitulos y no hubo tiempo. No sufro pues ya proximamente leere la novela, 0 drama al respecto ademas de que viendolo con cabeza fria; el final no esta taaaaaan mal ya que se da a medio entender que nuestro amado tiene oportunidades futuras ;-;

Respecto a todo lo demas, no se que decir de verdad pero primero que nada, DIOS MIO CON LA MUSICA, LITERALMENTE TODAS LAS CANCIONES SE VAN PARA MI PLAYLIST Y JAMAS LAS VOY A OLVIDAR, es que que calidad de verdad.
Respecto a la historia, me encanto la complejidad de esta, tener que pasar por las cuatro etapas (supongo que hay una mas que no se pudo grabar) me encanto aunque si es latoso y confuso de mirar, por momentos estaba de "no puede ser, nah esto no me gusto" pero luego avanzando en los capitulos me daba una cachetada la historia haciendome entender que todo tenia un porque y yo me volvia loca
Algunos giros si fueron esperados incluso el final pero eso no le quitan lo hermoso, siento que estuvo todo muy bien, yo vivire enamorada de taitai por mucho tiempo :c se volvio en uno de mis husbandos ficticios favoritos; no creo que pueda bajar de mi top ademas de la pareja principal claro.
De todas formas la pareja secundaria tambien me gusto mucho a pesar de su final triste y que no se le dio continuidad (aunque ahora estoy algo confusa porque por alli hubo una vision donde cierta zorrita hermosa seguia viva, me hayo confundida tambien como el otro suso dicho termino siendo rey en vez de taitai por tanto tiempo pero ya me doy una idea, lastima que no le pudieran dar pantalla)
Despues que puedo decir, cada faceta de los personales principales fue muy buena, toda la historia se sintio como un circulo perfectamente cerrado y aunque la ultima etapa fue poco explicada siento que si recibio muchisimo esfuerzo para salir adelante en solo 40 capitulos. Sea como sea mereceria un 10 pero no puedo mentir asi que lo dejare en 9.8, cerca ceeerca solo por unos detalles que van en contra de mis gustos como que algunos problemas se solucionaban hablando y se terminaron haciendo enormes, de alli en fuera toda la historia estuvo muy bien.
Me voy triste y feliz de este drama pero sabiendo que aun me queda la novela por leer ;w; de mis favs de ahora en adelante y seguire llorando con el ost mucho rato <3
fin fin por ahora <3

Give it a go wouldn't disappoint you

As someone who has watched a few dramas with fantasy elements, I was pleasantly surprised. Unlike some other shows where fantastical elements can feel forced or excessive, "Till The End Of The Moon" struck the right balance. The storyline was coherent, and the fantasy elements seamlessly integrated into the narrative.

The acting was a highlight. Many of the actors were familiar faces from previous series, and their performances were commendable. Their talent brought the characters to life, making it easy to connect with the story.

However, there was one aspect that left me slightly dissatisfied: Tai Tai Jin's ending. As the main character, he deserved a more fulfilling resolution. Despite his efforts, he didn't achieve as much as I hoped. This portrayal of life's unfairness lingered with me, even though I know it's not the whole truth.

In summary, the drama is definitely worth watching. The intriguing plot, strong acting, and balanced fantasy elements make it an enjoyable experience. I thoroughly enjoyed the journey from start to finish.

Romansa Paling Canggung

Saya menonton ini karena ingin merasakan sensasi drama China fantasi yang sudah lama tak pernah bisa aku nikmati. Akhirnya drama ini begitu menghiburku dengan sinar leser ya g keluar dari tangan atau hewan yang berubah jadi manusia seperti sebuah dongeng legenda.

Secara keseluruhan cerita. Drama ini cukup logis dan runtut, sekalipun terlalu cepat. Namun, karakter drama ini adalah karakter drama paling membuat stres. Anda seperti melihat hubungan suami istri paling tak sehat di dunia dan semua itu disebabkan karakter utama yang memiliki kepribadian negatif. Bahkan sekalipun kepada istrinya dia tetap berpikiran negatif bahkan berencana mencelakainya di awal episode. Sekalipun episode bertambah dan jalan cerita juga berganti pemeran utama protagonis pria tetap berprasangka buruk kepada istrinya. Bahkan sekalipun istrinya telah menjadi lebih baik kepribadian nya.

Saya harap anda tak bertemu pria yang berkepribadian seperti pemeran utama protagonis pria sebagai suami anda di masa depan karena itu hanya akan membuat anda menyadari bahwa manusia memilih jalan mereka sendiri dan anda.tak bisa memaksa mereka berubah..Jika mereka tak ingin berubah.
Ada saat dimana kita harus melepaskan diri dari dia karena ada hal yang lebih penting.

Aktor pemeran adalah yang terbaik dari semua. Mereka membawakan karakter dengan multi kepribadian yang sulit.

Anda tahu bahwa drama ini menggunakan konsep time traveler. Jadi anda kadang harus menyesuaikan diri dengan kepribadian orang lain yang anda perankan.
Contoh Bai Lu memerankan
Li Su Su putri raja iblis dan Dewi Phoenix di masa paruh kedua dari masa 1500 tahun alur cerita.
Saat dia kembali ke paruh pertama dari 1500 tahun dia menjadi Ye Xi Wu anak dari Jendral perang Ye Xiao
Saat dia terjatuh di sungai Mohe. Dia harus menjadi San Jiu dalam kehidupan mimpi Ming Ye seorang dewa perang yang hidup 10.000 tahun yang lalu.

Baju yang indah dan make up yang cantik membuat semua itu sempurna.

Untuk lagu pengiring.. Sangat cocok dengan cerita. Namun, sepertinya tak akan mudah diingat.

Great graphics, great act, but unsatisfying end

We can see tremendous amount of money spent all over this drama. The visual effects and costumes were fabulous.

I was highly anticipated this drama because Luo Yunxi, Bai Lu, and the teaser looked promising. Sadly, i was a bit disappointed.

Both lead had great acting skill & top notch chemistry that we expected in a twisted couple.
I think of all the supporting roles, I would say Ye Bingchang delivered the best play.

Now, the bad part:
1. Story plot were "untidy".
I had to watched almost 4-5 episodes just for story gave explanation about things, which some of it could be done in a short time of one episode. So, the writing were ineffective.

2. To much complicated love story.
Yet the side love stories were not interesting enough to be watched. Waste of time.

3. Problems keep on coming.
Yet, the story was ended abruptly & unsatisfying. The final episode showed the lead had a daughter from her husband but that was that. How could a love story that ran through thousand of years ended so lightly that it felt abandoned by the writer?
It felt like this drama wanted to show that the good people do not deserve happiness in their lifetime. Seemed like the producer wanted to play God by making everyone miserable at first then in the end no one would get a really sweet & happy life.

I have a suggestion for producer like this: if you want to play God, don't make drama!
People already knew what real life is, so next time you really want to make a drama, give the suffering people a lot of happy moments too! That what drama is for, to entertain people hearts, not make them desperate!

4. The motion songs were not catchy enough by nowadays drama OST standard.
Sounds like song from old classic drama remade to modern song.
I thought Zhang Bichen & Liu Yuning were guaranteed for great motion songs, turned out it were not.
