I think maybe if you squint REALLY hard it's a pretty generic story about an exiled OP protagonist whose strength is tied to how angry he is. But like, damn, it has such great undercurrents of environmentalism and human abuse of the surroundings if you wanna go there.

Maybe it's something that wasn't in the story originally that they added it to keep everything going. Actually, I wonder how much of the story they had beforehand. Were the first three episodes an amazing fight scene that then grew into an entire world? Or was the expanded universe written first and they just happened to do those three episodes that way?

I suspect knowing Chinese and reading the director's Twitter might help. There's some comic strips or summat on there.

For some reason the version I watched had Chinese subtitles on the screen, on top of the translation.

It's an improvement at what the first was good at, particularly the sound department which is much better in this season, and the main character is now, well, a character.

Too bad the episodes were way longer with not much plot progression.

You mean Donghua or?

Like the other Nakama said, you have to take everything on consideration but here, the animation is so so great that I gave 9/10.

I’m a big fan of Yi Nian Yong Heng but the animation has nothing to do with Fog, it’s difficult…

Just started Link Clink. First half of episode one I was like (βŒ£Μ―Μ€ ⌣́) but then the ending music and twist kicked in and I was like ( Ν‘β—‰  ΝœΚ– Ν‘β—‰)

There is plot progression. You see the backgrounds of the characters and there motivation and then some good fight scenes cuz this is a Xianxia. And yes episode 4-8 (S2 Ep 1-4) is mostly about the different factions fighting over the baby Qilin, but the story and pacing (while some may view as being slow), is appropriate given the cultural context. I"m taking Chinese brush painting, and I appreciate the simplicity and meditative pace that the show takes at times. Also I appreciate the simplicity in the story, otherwise it could be like a Chinese period drama with over 300 chapters and over 100 characters from 20 different clans to the point that you need a genealogy chart to keep track of who is who.

There has been some plot progression, just very little from where the previous season left off. The other things you said are characterization, which, yes, there was some for two characters.

Amazing series, shame its so short.

The moment where he goes apeshit and removes the parasite is just godly, haven't seen any better animation this year!

Seeing both brother coordinate their fight against the demon was really satisfying. But I have to say Wrath demon from the previous installment was more tough then this one. He single handedly when against the elder brother and lasted longer. Meanwhile, this one failed to kill both brothers whose powers were limited and got demolish when the seal of the oldest was broken. We have to remember Eldest Wen Ren was badly wounded by then that he collapsed after the fight. 

Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing the  Metal and Ice envoy fight demons. And the duck turned out to be a handsome guy.

Phenomenal animation, Chinese ONA have really come a long way! To think this came from a relatively unknown and small studio speaks volumes about their efficiency too. Highly recommended for the animation quality and fight sequences alone!

this totally lost me by the end, I see this series as a complete fumble, from something that could've been big following that initial teaser short.

ending sucked and not interested in any sequel that they allude to at the end, although I'd be surprised if that indeed ever happens.

Death by poison horror movie style.

The seal got broken. We're about to get invaded!

Time for war!

GD it's terrible how some stupid humans (MC) and other greedy humans (the 8 brothers from the village) can really ruin everything for everyone else.

I like this but to me, it was all over the place.
People appearing from nowhere, not always linked.
Maybe it's the short amount of episodes that make it hard to elaborate.
Still good though.
