They have a pure and best chemistry and it’s like match made in heaven. The drama storyline is also good.

A fantastic gaming contents.

I decided to write my first review after finishing an keen surprising drama which I think didn’t deserve severals prejudice before grasping its entirety.

I’m going to start saying this drama is quite unique on his genre. It’s not another costume dramas we're used to watch and you quickly understand foremost the storytelling game alike. Everything is done to make you experience the game through this show. The slow plot pacing is pretty well making it easy for you to understand his setting.
The story transports us into Chinese mythology with supernatural elements and xianxia themes that require attention so as not to be lost.

​If you are interested in a plot talking about two main characters who woke up without any memory. This loss has influences on the portrait drawn up of them. They’re not stupid nor weak but just two amnesiacs who learned to live relying on each other as two siblings dynamics. They’re going to grow on you throughout the show in the search for their past. Anyway, this enigma behind them isn’t easy to guess even after so many episodes keeping you wanting the next one. It’s not predictable plot because everything has always a twist. You will be intrigue trying to make your own guess or theory. The main characters undergone designs of unknown individuals who end up taking meaning for the awaited revelation along. On the way, the protagonists make destined encounters similar to specific quests for each identity which introduce us to a world full of others puzzles to solve too.

The OSTs were all incredible to listen with strong meaning (the opening song for example) behind them intensifying the mystery and emotional scenes played by the actors. The actors in this series were incredible at giving you emotion in the right scenes that required it. I was further captivated with the dual role-playing from Xu Kai. We get to saw Esther's character evolution clearly because she did played her role right. Expected to see an good chemistry between the two main characters which was just natural getting along, adorable acting like siblings but also touching and sparkly comparable to childhood lovers and the bloom of love with a first love. The trust and connection between these two characters was wonderful even in angsty moments. Secondly, I fell for the second pairing Wang Peng and Fu Xin Bo which was similar to my own crush taking shape over the time. The chemistry is just as good between the group of friends and even more so between Esther and Wang Peng. You would be just as surprised by your attachment to black and white characters, because some actors play their role decently making you experience mix-up feelings for them. I remember crying for antagonists which are more than just evildoers (ex. Bian Luohan or Luo Maiming). Ultimately, it's not about knowing who is right or wrong among all these complex characters. Everyone works in their own self-interest to accomplish their goal or change their destiny.

The cinematography remained enjoyable to watch. The CGI was not bad for almost all the drama remaining a lesser imperfection to not care in my opinion. Once again everything depends on your watch. I liked the one present in the fight scenes doing good visually. Few action scenes at first glance but the majority were well executed. The story was gripping enough not to ask for more. Before watching, I didn't think about his adaptation from a game but I was okay with the world building which set the right tone from the start. Everything was not perfect of course. I found scenes that deserved better execution to leave you amazed. I'm talking for example about this scene where the Head of Zhenwu alliance in the human world hands over a sword which is said to have recognized Jinzhao. There were characters who had less impact or annoying not worth mentioning. That been said, I would like to highlight the costumes that were worn in this drama. I thought about them taking inspiration from the game beyond just the colors. They're definitely not the same as any other drama costume I've seen so far. The traditional style has been taken but remains somehow different. I found lovely the aesthetic matching a gameplay in a meaningful way.

To conclude, everyone getting an proper closure in the end seems satisfactory while leaving you little imagination conform to any fantastic narrative. Contrary to what one might think, this drama remains very focused on his characters development. You shouldn’t trust your first impression too much. Definitely my taste, I won’t forget how this drama manages to make me emotionally torn until the end.

My first drama that based on games so I will review it purely based on the story only.

*** Spoiler Alert (PERSONAL FEEDBACK)
Title : Sword and Fairy 6 – 2024 (Complete 36 Episodes)
Personal Rating : 8/10

Yue Jinzhao (Played By Xu Kai) is a clever guy with a mysterious origin. He is brave, caring and with a will to protect the mankind.

Yue Qi (Played by Esther Yu) is a mythical beast from Yu Clan but raised in Heng-Tao sect by Bian Luohuan. She has a childlike attitude and thoughts, but she is not foolish. She is strong, powerful who values friendship and relationship.

I think this is my first drama that based on games so I will review it purely based on the story only. Honestly, I am very reluctant to finish this drama. Maybe because it is not my kind of drama. I can honestly feel why some viewers dropped this drama because it was childish for them and sometimes, I also feel the same. I am a big fan of Esther that is why I tried to understand and finish this drama. Some of the viewers find Esther's voice and character to be irritating maybe because she is playing a 13 to 16 years old character. I am used to Esther’s baby voice so its fine for me.

The story line is okay. I can feel the undying love of Jinzhao for Qi and Qi’s love for Jinzhao. Love the friendship of the 6 of them. They are always supporting each other even its not related to them but because of their love for their friendship they are always willing to go anywhere together and fight. Luo Li Ming stands out for me because even he is bad, he did everything for Luo Zhao Yan – to keep her alive. His love and affection for her is not just because they are both from LUO clan. He really loves her and care for her because she is someone who is willing to die with him and protect him every time. I even like story of Bian Luo Huan and Qi. It is short and sweet but deep. I thinks I like the later episodes more because the storyline is becoming serious. One thing is I don’t understand the ending. I thought Qi is dead because she used her life bring back Jinzhao but why is she even there? How did it happen?

Overall, I will rate it as 8/10 because Xu Kai did a great job portraying both Jinzhao and Luohan who have opposite characters. Esther is always adorable. Great second leads too! Xu Kai and Esther Yu has great chemistry. I wish I can see them again both in different drama/story maybe a bit matured romantic comedy drama because the I just love the chemistry of Luohan and Qi!

FAVORITE OST – Resonance by Zhou Shen & Search by Yu Jiayun

I loved it against all odds

Seriously, this is one of the most complex plots I've seen in cdramas, but surprisingly it didn't turn me off - the mystery was unraveling slowly but steadily, and while sometimes (most of the times) I had no idea what was happening and why most of the characters did what they did, it was still a captivating watch.

I have to mention the stellar cast first - if not for the actors, the drama wouldn't have been so captivating. XuKai gave his very best performance playing not one, but two characters. He and Esther have a lovely chemistry that is sweet and innocent, like teenage love, which I found beyond cute and amazing to watch. Wan Peng was great playing Luo Zhaoyan, her brother was equally great, and deliciously evil and bad (although very caring, and yes, that's a thing). Luo Zhaoyan and Xian Qing (the demon-wolf) had amazing chemistry and a kind of more mature romance unfolding, which I'd love to see more of, but after all, the series is more about fighting and solving the mysteries than anything else. All the supporting characters and their stories were also great to watch.

Maybe the plot is more coherent for people who actually played the game, but for me, as a viewer, it was a bit too much of unfamiliar lore that was laid out in bits and pieces and we just had to roll with it, taking things as they were. In the end, everything kind of made sense (at least, all the mysteries were explained). Still, some characters had very questionable ethics, doing lesser evil for the sake of the greater good, which has never turned out good, like ever. I'm sure there could be less messy ways to do things and save all the realms. Still, it all made sense, I just wish there were fewer character deaths, they were really heartbreaking to watch.

But I do recommend this drama to everyone who is thinking about whether to watch it or not - there are too many good scenes and plotlines in it. If you don't mind being in the dark for most of the series, wondering what on earth is going on there and why the main lead has a twin, then you're all good. The OST is lovely, all the music is great, the acting is superb, and the couples are super cute. There are quite a lot of funny moments at the beginning of the drama, but then things get dramatic pretty fast. I cried a few times, so be prepared for that, too.

ACTION, COMEDY AND ROMANCE NYA DAPET BANGET ❤️

kemistrinya dapet banget Xukai sama xinxin ini, melebihi ekspektasi aku pas liat preview waktu masih syuting. ceritanya oke dimana Xukai meranin dua karakter aja udah bikin penasaran. Karakter bian sama Jinzhao tuh beda banget, mereka berdua nih yang bikin penasaran banget kelanjutannya.. begitu juga Yue Qi yang di episode 15-16 udh ketahuan asal usulnya tapi tetep aja blm kebuka banget.

alurnya nggak ketebak di aku yang emang lebih fokus nonton Xukai sama xinxin 🤭 penasaran banget kelanjutannya gimana, kalian harus nonton bareng aku sih mumpung masih on going ❤️

satu lagi OST nya bagus bagus, paling suka A lifetime by Shan Yichun

Dramas are an escape from the reality not a tool to express your jealousy

I want to start saying that I don’t watch a lot of dramas in general , but sometimes when life becomes a bit hard a like to watch dramas that makes me escape the reality and for me this drama became really fast my comfort show because for me watching a drama ( whatever genre it is ) is a good thing to do when you feel unhappy, for there, in a drama, you may find encouragement and comfort. And S&F its just like that, i really like the chemistry between the leads, i love how the characters are presented and I especially love the beautiful landscapes that are shown and especially in the episode 6, and i am positive that as the story progresses we will see even more captivating things. As for the acting, I love how both leads act, they are really natural and their chemistry is through the roof, but then again i feel like Yu shuxin has chemistry with everyone, she just have that talent, same with Xu Kai.
I will write another review in the end.

So to the people that are just not grown up enough to be sincere please at least be grown up
To not leave negative comments and reviews without even watching it and leave your jealousy aside and move on!

I don't wanna watch Xu kai doing such horrible drama ever again

The story is crap ..not gonna lie this was one of the weakest plots that I have ever seen. Why I say so ?? Cause you will watch 3/4th of the drama still won't feel attached to the story ... The feeling of excitement to watch the next episode was totally missing ..just imagine the amount of disappointment.

Xu kai is a fantastic actor He delivered best on his part but in the end he can only play his own role .. I feel bad for him as don't know for what reason but his chemistry with his co-actors has been compromised in last couple of shows ...in best choice ever it was the same .. I hope he gets some beautiful and talented co-actress who will bring out his charisma again ...

Esther yu was terrible like she is in most of her dramas.she was the same in 'Love between devil and fairy' two years back .. her acting skills haven't improved at all,she is hopeless. In fact the rest of the cast performed way better than her. I don't know how chinese casting works but she has no chance to sign even a junior artist role for the third class acting skills she owns.she is the only grade less actress who gives kissing scenes in a child voice, making it even morally incorrect.

The plot was stuffed with a lot of details but somehow the mess created was so much that it lost its core ... The plot was bulky in itself plus There were a total of 4-5 couples having their own love story which were dragged to the last altogether.. an Absolute CHAOS .

a few more things 'louder than dialogue' background music ..basic and ugly costume .. multidirectional approach with no straight execution of parts were responsible for not delivering the drama in its whole potential

If i have to summarise, it was just the hard work of the entire cast ( minus Esther yu) that kept the drama breathing otherwise there was no hope whatsoever.

Not done watching, but a minor complaint

For the most part, I think this series is great. The main characters have great chemistry. The supporting characters also mesh well. The storyline is great. My one small complaint is actually pretty common in a lot of these dramas. I think it's gross when they make a female student fall in love with their master. For one, the student/teacher relationship is already questionable. However, it's worse when the teacher raised their student because they're much older and have assumed a parental role. In this case, Ming Xiu fell in love with Gu Han Jiang and even though he never outright reciprocated, you can clearly tell he feels the same. She was literally a child when they met and he was already a man. For me, it's just gross when an adoptive parent falls in love with their adoptive child and vice versa. Pedo, anyone? These dramas need to stop romanticizing these type of relationships. Just because they aren't blood related, doesn't mean it's not gross.

A very beautiful game adaptation drama ??

I would describe this drama in one word, perfect. From any aspect, I didn't find any flaws that could reduce my interest in watching. Lovers of this game definitely very happy. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

The acting of the cast is extraordinary, especially the main actor Xu Kai who plays two characters and Esther Yu who with her intelligence makes Yue Qi very comfortable to look at to the point that I feel that she is my precious child and I would love to make her egg noodles all the time. The storyline is also very entertaining and to be honest, even though I already know what the storyline will be like because of the game adaptation, I am still tempted and looking forward to the next episode. This is one of the legendary dramas.

Rating makes me drop this show

It's going to be a rather short review since I've got nothing to say at all. I'm really, really sorry and have no intention to bash out at this show. But, the rating tempted me to drop this show. I've never stand low rating before - 7.8, that too outrageous for a high-budget drama.

The story itself is pretty complex to me and people said that there was no single villain/antagonist, so don't expect one - as usual, everyone was driven by their own greed and dignity that they decided to do anything possible so as to achieve their selfish goals. I actually love the friendship of the 6 main characters - Yue Jinzhao, Yue Qi, Luo Zhaoyan, Xian Qing, Ming Xiu, and Ju Shifang. They have very contrast personality and yet they manage to deepen their bonds and becoming sworn friends through the lifetime.

I have no trouble with the acting. Surprisingly, Esther Yu's voice didn't bother me and I really adore her character. Xu Kai did excellent as usual - I'm impressed of how he managed to portray two characters at the same time. Kudos to the other actors/actresses as well.

OSTs are heartwarming and I begin to grow on the opening song - 奇迹 sung by JS.

Okay, it's time to end my review. I apologize if my review is offensive in some ways. Happy watching for those who haven't watched. Good luck.

Haters, leave this wonderful drama alone

The original soundtrack, which flawlessly encapsulates the tone and ambiance of the drama, is similarly amazing.

The opening of the drama is beautiful. The characters have chemistry and naturally come together.

The actors really gave life to their characters

The banter of Yue Qi and Yue JinZhao makes your heart flutter that you also want to pinch the cheeks of Qi too.

The comedic tone of the drama captivates you at the very start to want more.

The drama deserve a very high rating for it's unique plot.

I'm sad that a certain cult mostly Zhao Lusi Fans would not stop delusional war in almost all china celebrity fandom.

They attack this by rating every episodes even the unreleased one. They stoop petty low.

Don't bring your delusional that your idol is the only great one. Let others enjoy other drama.
