Storia romantica e rilassante
Un vero peccato che questa storia di susseguenti reincarnazioni non sia stata sviluppata in modo + approfondito con + puntate ovviamente. Ci sono parti mancanti che si devono supplire con l'immaginazione. Malgrado la scarsità di ambientazioni e comparse, il drama è molto piacevole, rilassante e romantico., Da guardare fra un drama impegnativo e coinvolgente ed un libro altrettanto tosto da leggere. Il finale è inaspettato, del tutto non scontato e questo è molto apprezzabile. Sulle prime può non piacere ma poi a pensarci bene, è assolutamente godibile. Mai come loro due, parlo dei protagonisti, sono e rimarranno immortali ed eterni per sempre. Anche la storia secondaria è stata carina a parte il personaggio di Qing Qing che sebbene incarni un uccellino, non è detto che un uccellino debba essere cretino. Ma passiamoci sopra. SE qualcuno si chiede cosa mai possa avere trovato il Re Dragone in una mortale qualsiasi, il Re dragone lo dirà: lei è il suo destino, Risposta perfetta. Parliamo della recitazione: purtroppo è stato evidentemente richiesto ai 2 attori protagonisti, data l'età millenaria, di essere imperturbabili ed algidi come dei pali della luce, e alle due protagoniste femminili, una di sbattere gli occhioni e di agitarsi quando dorme in modo convulso e all'altra di comportarsi come una bambina stupidella. Da altri drama è evidente che questi attori e attrici sanno ben recitare, mentre qui li vediamo in ruoli stereotipati e a volte ridicoli. Peccato, Avrebbero dovuto dar loro modo di esprimersi di più ed in modo più naturale. Ad ogni modo è un drama che anche data la brevità dei video, ho visto in 4 giorni, molto carino e me lo sono goduto. Rilassante, romantico, godibile! Ben fatto il lavoro dei traduttori italiani.Questa recensione ti è stata utile?
Bel drama fantasy!
Bel drama fantasy di quelli dove tutto è possibile,persino i draghi,i demoni e che nasca amore tra un drago e un umana.Ambientazione xianxia in posti incredibili e con meravigliosi costumi.
Protagonisti un drago e una ragazza e una storia d'amore che ne dovrà vedere di tutti i colori,con sofferenza e ripetute reincarnazioni.
Purtroppo nonostante la bella storia risulta un po' lento il racconto.La coppia e la sua storia e bella pero si perde un po'.
Bella anche la seconda coppia con la sua storia più semplice ma bella con un bel lieto fine.
Il finale del drama sinceramente non mi è piaciuto,non è un finale triste ma mi sarebbe piaciuto diverso.
Piacevole visione nonostante la lentezza di certe puntate.

Which asshole wrote this script?
That was the best line in Miss the Dragon, a xianxia that just misses the boat. It is a thought that jumps to mind at various points of the drama. The writer must be someone with both self awareness and a sense of humor. Which you must have plenty of if you choose to watch this because it can be so ridiculous and silly that you almost have to just laugh at it.The story opens with the injured dragon king Yuchi Longyan rescued by a maid Liu Ying who mistakes him for a common snake. Liu Ying rescues injured animals, including the bird elf Qingqing while she daydreams about the mythical dragon king. The first arc is largely an amalgamation of the best moments of other hit xianxias, notably TMOPB. When it comes to recycling other drama's memorable moments, it best be either a really clever parody or a vastly superior moment. In this case it is neither. Some of the writer's own original humor is fresh and funny enough they should have just gone with that and focused on fleshing out the main couple and getting us invested in their relationship. Instead, after being vividly reminded of some old favorites, I am left with the impression of two rather blank characters whose shallow infatuation with each other was unlikely to last until supper time, forget several lifetimes.
While Liu Ying does get a tad more interesting with each subsequent lifetime, there is little of substance that survives each incarnation. So it is not clear what Yuchi Longyan is fighting for, what is innately so special about Liu Ying that the dragon king loves so much. Zhu Xudan did a good job essentially playing four different characters but she is wasted in these sappy rather simple roles that any newbie actress can play. As for Wang Hedi, after a delectable opening scene of him emerging scantily clad from the dragon pool, I was left with an indelible impression of an overdressed plank. His portrayal of the dragon king is an impressive study of the art of being bizarrely still and plank like while everything else is moving. At first, I thought he was accidentally sent the script from a botox commercial. Then I started to feel insecure about accidentally hitting pause on my remote. Bottom line, I didn't feel any spark between the leads. Oddly, his interactions with all of the other characters are so much more natural and enjoyable. I rarely comment on the OST and the BGM but in this case I must point out it was good enough to make me tear up much more than was induced by the acting or story during the sad moments.
The idea of a love that transcends lifetimes is very powerful and moving but that concept is much more originally and engagingly explored in the second couple's story. Indeed the love story between the block of burning ice that is Xue Qianxun the master of Luofeng Pavilion and his flighty chirpy little bird elf Qingqing is why I didn't drop this drama. Both characters are better developed and they have understandable motives and goals. Their relationship is so humorous and their chemistry builds so organically that I had to root for them and was intrigued by and impatient to discover their past. I won't spoil it by saying more than that is a wonderful and memorable mini fairytale in and of itself and that is what the focus of this drama could and should have been.
The way the drama ends goes a long way to redeem itself. I really ate up the epic magical battles and even though the villain is quite lame and was obvious to me from the beginning, I like how all the pieces of their scheming is revealed and how it all ties in quite neatly with the plot and the many lives of Liu Ying. I am solidly in the camp of really liking the ending; anyone who knows the legend of Nuwa would not be that surprised by it. Overall its not a bad watch, it has quite some entertaining moments beyond just laughing at the production. My rating gets a bump up to a 7.0/7.5 due to the wonderful second couple and ending at the climax.

Low Budget Xianxia Drama
To be honest, it didn't start off pretty badly, the front part was pretty similar to Eternal Love, where the mortal FL mistaken ML as an injured snake (instead of Dragon) and brought him back to take care of him. I was quite captivated at first and enjoyed watching how the Dragon is falling for the FL. Although their interaction was a bit childish and the lines are somehow cringey, it's still considered pretty entertaining to watch.UNTIL they entered the second life, third then the fourth; the drama basically being split into four parts and repeat again and again with different settings (as the main girl reborn as different characters) where the ML protected her over and over. I felt the story was so repetitive and disconnected (especially FL needs to forget about the ML whenever she starts a new life) so I started losing interest on the main couple and can't help to move my focus to the second couple instead. They were both immortal with a master-servant relationship but their bickering was quite interesting and the protective second ML was surprisingly quite cool and charming that draws me in!
Acting wise, besides the second male lead being natural in his role, the rest were kinda ... (face palm). ML's role was supposed to very sorrowful as he needed to watch FL living lives without him whilst guarding her with his life but I don't think he portrays the "devastation" and "devoted" very well. FL's acting was okay but she doesn't really look innocent to act the innocent roles, not sure if it's because I watched her wicked-role acting in Eternal Love and has somehow shaped my impression on her, well... but I don't deny that she's pretty though! As for the second FL - Qing Qing, although I prefer the second couple, I couldn't really stand her acting as she exaggerated almost every expression, overturning the definition of "naive and mischievous" and acted like an immature 10-year-old kid that makes me cringe a little. Maybe some might find her pretty cute, yes she is - if she is not acting as an adult, otherwise it just looks a bit off for me, that's why in some ways I find this drama is more suited for younger age group.
Considered it a low-budget production, it still deserve a 7.5/10.0 as I didn't end up dropping it and was actually okay to watch, as long as you don't take the plots too seriously. I personally enjoyed Xianxia Drama A LOT so I didn't regret watching this and I don't think we should compare this with other big production and raise our standards. As a standalone, I would say it was not so good but not too bad either, basically "so-so": A decent storyline with good looking casts, the magical effects were not bad too, just a bit lacking in acting and detailed plots. Sad scenes weren't that on point and not so much on the couple's chemistry but you can simply watch it for some light-hearted moments and a simple fantasy drama, each episode is quite short too so technically it's not so difficult to finish it haha!

Might as well give this drama a try
This is a good drama to watch if you currently ran out of dramas to watch or you want to take a break from those lengthy, serious, and intense wuxias. However, it's better not to expect too much from it. Although this drama has good actors, beautiful sceneries, and wonderful OSTs, I feel like it lacks something.The overall storyline of a mortal and a demon falling in love through different lifetimes was good and quite interesting at first but 4 lifetimes with the same lovestory in only 36 episode was too much and rushed. It was like just repeatedly watching the female lead meet and quickly fall in love with the male lead as he secretly waits and protects her but both eventually gets seperated and meet again in the next lifetime. The only difference between each lifetime they spent was the character setting of the female lead. First, she wast a maid that married a different guy because her memories were distorted. Second, she was a country girl that got married into the palace. Third, she was a brave general that silently loved him and was contented with him fighting and staying by her side. Fourth, she was a cultivator that was taught to kill demons. As you can see each lifetime would have had wonderful set-up but sadly each of their lovestory was not wonderfully developed as each only spanned a few episodes. Personally, I feel like it would be better if they had just stuck to 2 reincarnations of the female lead or they could still originally include 3-4 reincarnations if the drama was about 50-60 episodes. But nevertheless it was heartwaming to see the male lead protect and love her for hundred of years no matter who she is or was born as, and how the female lead always ends up falling in love and choosing the male lead in each of her lifetime.
The second couple was my favorite. I loved their contrasting personalities and cute interactions. They were one of the main reasons I didn't dropped this drama and I actually preferred them over the main lead couple. It was lovely to watch Qinqing, the lively and takaltive bird elf melt the icy cold heart of Xue Qianxun, the lord of Luofeng Pavillion. Aside from their relationship, I am also fond of Dagon king and Qingqing's friendship and as well as his frienship with Xue Qianxun. It was nice to see how loyal Qingqing was to Liuying that she accompanied her even when she was reincarnated as Ayu, Chenyue, and Qingyan.
In a nutshell, although Miss the Dragon has a lot of room for improvement, it was certainly not a bad drama and was still beutifully-made and quite interesting to watch. The sceneries were surreal and breathtaking and The OST in this drama was spectactular, it matched each scene and magnified the all feelings and emotions conveyed by the actors. I would definitely add these songs into my playlist: 1) Liu Zhuan Ying Hui by Shuang Sheng, 2) Favor by Ding Ding, and 3) Meeting fireflies by Henry Huo.

A Xianxia That Tested My Patience
Let me just say this off the bat: I am a huge Xianxia lover, and after I watched Miss the Dragon's trailer, I was more than excited, I was ecstatic! As this was going to be my first Xianxia of the year, I counted each and every second until it started to air.The first few episodes were fun. It was evident that this was a low-budget drama. The pink and white trees were plastic-like, but I'm not going to complain about the sets. Some of the sets were very beautiful, just a little too fake. And another male lead with white hair? Nice!
Story- 7.0
Okay, the leads' story deserves a 6.0 at the very most, but I simply loved the second leads, and as their story deserved at least a 9.0, I guess the overall score for the story will be a 7.0. The drama went downhill so quickly that I'm still not completely sure what went wrong. Perhaps it was just the recycled plot, because I was getting more bored by the second. If you've been watching Xianxia dramas for long enough, you'll notice that the plot of MTD is very similar to Eternal Love, Love and Redemption, etc, with its four reincarnations. (but much more blander)
Yuchi Longyan, a dragon demon, falls in love with a mortal girl. She first meets him in his snake form, but that part of the story left so many unanswered questions. Firstly, why was a snake kept in a bamboo cage that he could have easily slid out of? Yes, he wouldn't escape, but this is basic common sense for a girl who was supposedly scared of snakes. And, Liu Ying kept on saying 男女授受不清, which means "Men and women shouldn't touch each other" TO A SNAKE. Liu Ying, how would you have known if the snake was a male or female? I'm probably being a little nitpicky, but these loopholes are quite bothersome.
Back to the main plot. The drama was enjoyable and fun in the 1st life, 2nd meh, 3rd boring, and in the 4th, I was seriously wondering why I was still watching the drama. (But of course, it was for my amazing second lead couple) This drama would have been much better off as one life, or even just two. With four lives, the screenwriter was recycling the story better than I recycle my scrap-paper. The female lead is born into a different setting, the male lead watches her grow up, and every time she's in trouble or danger, he appears and saves her from whatever that's endangering her. If you're considering whether or not to watch this, please do not set your hopes high when you see that 'strong female lead' tag. I understand that everyone has different views on what a strong female lead is, but from what I saw, Liu Ying is NOT a strong female lead. She falls off a cliff, ladida! Yuchi Longyan is there. Some demon is attacking her, poof! He's there again. *sighing* The plot really tested my patience. It also really tested my fast-forward button clicking fingers.
The only good thing the plot gave me was the second lead couple. Man, I could watch Xue Qianxun and Qing Qing for days! Like many viewers who have watched Miss the Dragon, I seriously wish that there will be another drama just about them, and I almost never hope for sequels and season 2s. Gah, Mr or Miss Screenwriter, why did you have to torture me like this! If only they were the main couple, I would be smiling nonstop...Xue Qianxun and Qing Qing's love story is a gem, I have to say, with a mysterious backstory involved. No ff button was used during their scenes.
Acting/Cast- 7.0
I've only previously watched Bambi Zhu in two dramas, Eternal Love and Sweet Dreams, both as antagonists, so I was anticipating her bubbly and cheerful character. I loved Liu Ying the first few episodes, and even though there was this faint voice in the back of my head telling me that I liked her more as an antagonist, I was delighted that she was given a chance the opportunity to be the protagonist in a Xianxia drama. But of course, I should've known that not all cheerful female leads are likable. She was just, too, how would I say this? She wasn't useless, but she wasn't very strong and useful either. She seemed to just be there, something for the male lead to protect. And with four reincarnations comes four different girls. My favorite girl was probably A'Yu (second life). She gave me the best impression, and although she was a normal mortal girl who went to the market everyday to sell produce, she was witty and brave, and that is the kind of female lead I love.
Miss the Dragon is my second drama with Dylan Wang as the male lead. I did not enjoy Meteor Garden, and Dylan Wang did not exactly impress me with that role. He looked fine in MTD's posters, with his long white hair and billowing robes. But sometimes, appearance is not everything. His character, is just so, bland. Does a dragon demon have nothing to do but protect his love? I understand that when you're in love, you want to know what your love is doing every second of every day, but what is the purpose of his existence? I'm pretty sure Yuchi Longyan was going to do something before he met Liu Ying, but all his goals and purpose just evaporated. After he met Liu Ying, his only purpose was to protect her. Save her from countless dangers, hurt himself to protect her, and the list goes on and on. Dylan Wang's acting is hard to describe, but it just did not convince me. His expressions need more emotions, I dare say.
I was shocked when I learned that Xue Qianxun was Deng Wei's first Cdrama role. He's a natural at acting! This Lord of Luofeng Pavilion has a cold but dominating air, and his powers are not to be underestimated. He wasn't exactly enemies with Yuchi Longyan in the beginning, but they weren't friends either. As time went by, they learned to help each other and slowly became friends. The bromance in this drama is hilarious! The interactions between Yuchi Longyan and Xue Qianxun is one of the few highlights of this drama.
I liked Qing Qing more than Liu Ying, or any of Liu Ying's reincarnations, to be completely honest. Pan Mei Ye did a great job as Qing Qing, a lively and caring demon bird. As bouncy as she was, she was not annoying at all, and was always by Liu Ying (and reincarnations)'s side as her best companion. Not to mention Qing Qing never failed to make me laugh!
I'm not going to be writing any spoilers here, but I have to say that the villain in this drama is so bland and boring that there would barely be any different if he or she weren't even there. Seriously, Screenwriter, is that the best villain you can give us?
Music- 7.5
From the top of my head, I only remember three songs, and tbh, there weren't that memorable either. There was one song that always played during the leads' scenes, and it got so repetitive that I got to the point that I wanted to mute my computer. Perhaps other people loved the songs, but not me. The singing was so-so, and the melodies just got annoying. Low budget dramas almost never have many songs or an amazing OST anyway.
Rewatch Value- 5.0
This 5 is for my beloved second lead couple. You want me to rewatch the whole drama with you? No way! Only if we just watch the second leads' scenes. I've already used up all my patience watching this once. (Why did I finish this, you might be wondering? I love Xianxias and I'm not big on dropping either. I also really love the second couple (sorry, I've said this so many times).)
Overall- 6.5
Would I really recommend this? Deep inside, not really. But if you like beautiful scenery (pink trees) and white dragons, you might want to give this a try. At least it's only 36 episodes. Maybe I kind of regret watching this but it was pretty enjoyable. I'm very thankful for the 2x speed option and the ff key. First Xianxia that disappointed me, but I really enjoyed the first few episodes.
Also, please forgive my sarcasm in this review. And thanks for taking the time to read it!

Unconditional love
The epilogue is perfect, beautiful, romantic, & highly comforting.All the loose ends get tied up here. Everything comes full circle. Everything feels complete, whole.
The epilogue is the only one where one gets to see the dragon king beam a warm smile.
There are no sad scenes in the epilogue. The epilogue shows the heroine's fifth lifetime.
In addition, the viewers will be in for a treat as all the most romantic scenes and dialogues from past & present gets collated here.
The unattractive aspects of the story, for eg, the female lead ending up living with other males , and both the main leads merely offering a weak resistance to ways of fate come to an end by the initial half of this drama. After that, the pattern starts to change....
This aside, the love story of the second supporting leads is sweeter, more beautiful than that of the leads. The way their love story unfolds is perfect --- full of tenderness & no unnecessary, convoluted complications.
There is gradual progression in the storyline of the main heroine throughout her lifetimes. In each succeeding lifetime, there is remarkable improvement in her her status, will power, self development, and her quality of life.
Also, her memories with the dragon king keeps getting better & clearer, more realistic in each succeeding mortal life.
The last four episodes are pretty fast paced compared to preceding ones. The action scenes though not perfect, are engaging, nice.

2nd couple stole the show
To be honest what kept me going was the 2nd couple. Deng Wei and Pan Mei Yi stole the show for me. The lead couple faded in interest as it became a bit repetitive and lacked emotion for me, though I do commend the script for making Bambi's character a bit more empowered and independent with each life.I loved the moments where Yuchi and the Luofeng Immortal would exchange relationship tips or get caught by QingQing in compromising positions, it made me laugh out loud. But the romance of the lead couple was the least captivating thing for me.
I wish Deng Wei and Pan Mei Yi would get a spinoff or special or perhaps get to play a lead couple in another drama in the future. Apparently it was his first drama and I felt he did an outstanding jon.

Beautiful Drama and Couple
First time when I watched this drama. I felt in love with all of it. The story line was so beautiful, all cast are incredible. Dylan Wang and Bamby Zhu as a main couple deliver the story line so perfect. Other cast also perfectly fit into their roles.I can’t stop to rewatched this drama. Unforgetfull and addicted. Hopefully We can see Dylan and Bamby together again as a couple in another romance drama.
This the first drama of Dylan and Bamby that I watched. I can’t imagine how I love this drama so much.

personal opinion from someone who have finished watching many xianxia dramas and this drama.
Please bear with me as this is my first time writing a review for a drama. I've watched many many dramas before and I must say that this one is unique in its own way. Personally, this drama isn't the best xianxia drama to have existed but the storyline and actors towards the end did leave me a heartbreaking impression just like the director's intention for this drama. As it is an adaptation of a game, I can understand that things might've not felt like the director and producer are in control of changing the storyline greatly.I know that many claims that it's way too much like 10 miles of Peach Blossom and Eternal Love of Dream. I totally understand it as both the ML were dragons and start off with the FL saving the ML when he's injured in his true form but Miss the Dragon does have its own element and uniqueness. Long wang followed Liuying for more than 3 lifetimes to protect her from all the danger with the intention of marrying her but just to see the ending really broke my heart. No big spoilers but just trying to say that these were also key elements that made the 2 drama series different.
I've seen many reviews where people comment on how Dylan Wang barely did anything and he managed to use his power to fight with enemies. Honestly, from someone who has never attended school for acting, it's already really good in my opinion. Although he needed to take notes from his fellow coworkers, I think that it will take time for someone to truly develop a certain skill.
There were many to expect from him as his previous role in Meteor Garden was a bomb. Many blamed him for lacking these and that but thinking about it, it might have been what the director wanted. Without the producer's approval things rarely gets through easily and we can't just blame Dylan on this. (Not claiming that this is the producer's fault but I just want to let everyone see things from my perspective.)
Warning spoilers coming up next...
The ending really took me by surprise. I really did not realize that the Immortal of Fate would be the villain and would really just plan all these schemes. I did realize 8/10 through the movie that he was sort of suspicious but other than that he was like all normal to me. I really trusted him as long wang's friend but I felt rather betrayed. He really did the qian xun and qing qing wrong. qian xun and qing qing have never done anything to him but he has always been eyeing the couple and destroying them. sorts of bothering me as an audience but that's part of the intention of the drama. Let's give the immortal of fate a break and talk about the second lead cp.
Honestly, through this entire drama, I look forward to qian xun and qing qing's love more than seeing the lead cp. They just get more and more interesting and they really did carry the drama well. I really hope that they can have their own drama as lead actors and actresses in the future and I really stan their love and how they click so well together.
I also find it interesting that long wang falls in love with Liuying but follows her as she reincarnates to ayu, chenyue, qingyan. Throughout the entire drama, I question if he loves Liuying for her personality or for her face, or because of her soul. This is sort of confusing but please do not fall into this trap and get stressed out like me. After all, all of Liuyings' lives did have a beautiful personality, face, and precious yan soul. ;))
I have more to say but then I need to stop right here.
Lastly thank you to everyone who has read my review up until now. If you're having hesitation to either watch this drama or drop, I recommend you try it first. What others find bad might not be that bad to you and opinions do differ. After all, we only live once and you might not know what would click with you! If anyone finds this review rather disturbing, I do sincerely apologize for this mistake.

There are two SEPARATE reviews for the ML and SML in this drama
TLDR: If you wonder if you should watch it, YES! It's the best worst drama ever. A totally new journey, new experience.SPOILER ALERT!!!
First of all, the main lead, Dylan Wang. Contrary to popular opinion, I think he was dealt a bad hand in this drama. This storyline and Yuchi Longyan call for someone with SOLID life experience, depth and acting skills. The actor must be able to tell a sophisticated story with his eyes and acting about:
- Someone who was clueless in love but very confident of his power and helplessly felt in love with a girl
- Someone who was slightly arrogant but lost his confident after failing to protect his loved one
- Someone who sacrificed for love, getting so close to a happy ending and getting more hopeful by the day
- Someone who was so hopeful, turning devastated and into the dark side as if he is crushed with pain
- Someone who is over the moon, oozing love out for his one true partner.
Dylan Wang has good look, but he's also a super young actor who started out from 18 years old or so and had his first kiss on screen. I am not sure if he has even experienced love not to mention all the above layers that the role requires. The contrast between the casting and the storyline make his lack of life experience even more pronounced.
Now, onto the second male lead of this show, Deng Wei. This is going to be a long ass review.
At first, I was skipping all his scenes because I normally focus only on the main couple in almost any drama to save time. Upon coming across one of this drama videos on youtube, I got intrigued:
- At 2:17 I can actually see his eyes saying: "I love you, you are cute, but I can see through your bullshit" (Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fR9i04YLpyQ).
How does he even do that? I don't know, so I have to watch to understand what he and QQ were doing that led to that expression. Holly smoke! That was exactly what the scene was about, as if he told me everything just with a tilt of his head and his loving and gentle glare.
I then had to cycle back and watch all of his and QQ scenes again. QQ annoyed me at first with her big round eyes, over the top expressions, but she and their pair started to grow on me in the most unexpected way. XQX (Deng Wei) then drew me in by his depth and evolution of the character. I find the experience deeply interesting for three reasons.
Firstly, he is smoking hot: his eyes, lip, nose, jaw line, the way he talks, moves, touches QQ with such elegance and charm. How I would instinctively pull my hand out to compare, then sigh in disbelief every time his hand, yes his hand, appeared on screen.
Secondly, he can act. His acting for both XQX and Lonely Star have clear evolution and direction, adding more layers and depth every time the character learnt something new about himself. The highlight was ep 34 as the Lonely Star, he looked sad when QQ was knocked out the first time, but he still looked clueless as he has never experienced losing someone or feeling lonely before. The second time QQ is out, his emotion exploded. I can see a whole range of emotions, from thankfulness to sadness to devastation to rage then a determination to change the course of QQ next life. It was an emotional rollercoaster and I was totally onboard thanks to his wonderful acting abilities.
Lastly, he and QQ has real chemistry, not only onscreen but offscreen as well. I could write another essay about this but I'd stop here for now and join in with the fans who are calling for them to be main leads in the next drama. I don't care what it's about, I'll be there :)
