| Lol, i just wanted to came and make one Hm, firstly the last episode and the donghua team gave a lot to their viewers from my point of view The core revealing( jiang cheng with loose hair looks hot 🤣), where some chickens around, wei ying parents, and aww the hug from shizui made the most sweet moment in the episode, sadly all good things must come to an end Yes, they change, moved some scenes but it never bothered me By by wonderful donghua Loved it. Hmm hehe... The animation, the soundrack and the VA were at point. I had it at 9 i gave a 10. |

| It was all so beautiful that i want to keep crying about it. I can't believe it's all over, which is so sad, but i also can't believe we also got to hear them say ''Wangxian''. The fact that they also ended the show with ''Wangxian'' while showing their story is just too perfect. |
| One of the few I give 10/10 in all seasons. It's a masterpiece. Sadly many people will not give it a chance just because it's chinese. |

| So sad this series have to end, what a wonderful donghua, of course it's not perfect but i still love it so much. |
| I am crying, can't believe the adaptation is officially over. So they first went to the ancestral hall then the core reveal happened then JC confronted WWX and cried. It was nice to see it visually and it made me emotional too but I still prefer the novel and audio drama version since those were not rushed so it felt more impactful. I'm glad that they also showed the flashback of JC leading the Wens away from WWX which was how he got caught and lost his golden core in the first place but he never told WWX about this, just like how WWX never told him about the core transfer. Ugh shuangjie feels. T_T WWX and Sizhui finally knowing/remembering that Sizhui is actually A-Yuan, Sizhui hugging WWX and LWJ was so cute, I love this family. Also the wangxian was strong from start to finish, WWX finally knows how and why LWJ got the scars, he finally knows that the song was composed by LWJ and it's called Wangxian HAAAA. I will miss Mo Dao, it will always have a special place in my heart. |

| One of my all-time favorite series, I will be rewatching all 3 seasons over and over again. I was crying when they played xian yun at the end. I cant stop thinking about the song and the visuals. Stay strong jc, xichen, jin ling..i hope things get better for them post-canon. The real MVP nie huisang is finally at the top of the cultivation realm. There were problems due to rushing but still, I enjoyed this season a lot. Thank you donghua team! The art, animation, music everything was great! |
| I'm not mad at this ending, not at all. All I ever wanted afterall, was Wangxian being able to be together in the end. Very bold choices made there with WWX parents parallels and the actual inclusion of "just needing a little one" (not even the novel WWX was this bold about it). And of course, namedropping Wangxian. I didn't expect that! Other highlights of this episode: Lan Xichen standing right behind the door waiting to spill the tea to Wei Wuxian. He should be careful about hanging out around Wangxian's rooms tho, may hear something he doesn't want to hear:) Lan Wangji's scars backstory...got misty eyed. Angry purple grape having mental breakdown with his hair down. (But him going to a seclusion? What a nonsense lmao). Lan Wangji saying:"Fuck Jiang Cheng lives". Lan Wangji proposing to WWX with chickens even though he married him like two times already. Sizhui! hugging his dads (even my dead cold heart felt touched at this moment and I shed a tear or two). Needles to be said...not even Wangxian is going to make me rate this thing and its terrible pacing and weird plot Frankenstein-ing with 10 or 9. I still have some pride, ok? Why did the fake tiger amulet get more screen time than Nie Huiesang? And most importantly? Why didn't S3 have 24 episodes?? It certainly needed them. |
Pen_pineapple said: Jiang cheng in seclusion? Now hes never gonna get married No need to worry. I´m already his waifu. Oh, my heart! I really loved the final focus they make on Jiang Cheng! It´s made me cry! Was a great idea melt all his moments in one to avoid cutting off the continuous flow of his stormy emotions, all his words were very harsh and did a lot of damage, but he needed it. This was a truly turning point. |

| Best episode of the series followed by s1 episode 11 and 15 Loved the ending. HOnestly Lan waji is such precious character..... |
 |
| Wow, it's over. And, while I was worried about getting a whole episode of epilogue, they actually did a good job with it. In the drama, I feel like Jiang Cheng's meeting with Wei Wuxian happened before the final battle. But, I have terrible memory, so I may have been wrong. It does fit perfectly well in this episode. I loved the absolutely stunning way they showed Wen Ning explaining about Jiang Cheng's golden core. This is an animated story, and that scene does what only animated stories can do, and I love it. Recently, I have been getting quite tired of anime not taking advantage of the fact that it is a collection of drawings. Wen Yuan's secret has finally been revealed here as well. And, I still want him to be Wei Ying's and Lan Zhan's adopted kid. This episode, it really felt like the two leads would kiss despite China's weird laws. Everything was just so inmate! I hope we get to see a director's cut where the leads actually kiss. Though, with the characters here, you don't really need a kissing scene to know they're madly in love. They don't declare it, but we can still see how their expressions and actions are overflowing with their love and affection for each other. The drama didn't mention the song's name, did it? I was surprised when they mentioned it here. WangXian. The song that brought Wei Ying back to Lan Zhan. Now, let's talk about the negative: some of the CG scenes weren't that good. They looked good, but they resembled a video game more than an animated series. Also, the flowers looked like erasers. They could have added some subsurface scattering to make them look like an organic material. |
| Everyone, we can die in peace now.... Wait actually nooo.... TGCF and SVSSS still are missing the next seasons... IDK how many seasons TGCD will need, but... We can survive that long.... I hope |

It does fit perfectly well in this episode. You are not wrong...they shifted around the timeline a lot in the donghua. The novel (and also the untamed) basically goes...the burial mounds fight> then they go to the Lotus Pier where stuff about Jin Guangyao gets revealed> then Jiang Cheng ambushes Wangxian in the ancestral hall and they fight and then Wen Ning tells JC about the golden core> then they leave and go to Yunping city where the Guanyin temple is located> stuff happens> they get taken as hostages by JGY> the final fight happens> wangxian elope> the end |

I was so terribly confused by all the names of people and places that I had to pause and look things up when it didn't get cleared up soon. |
| I'm speechless. They got together in the end, with Lan WangJi saying the name of their love song... they are going home to some cozy cottage just the two of them and their pet bunnies. I just love this story so much.So much. Cried in the novel, cried in the live action, cried in the audio drama... it wouldn't be different here. WangXian! It's a beautiful name! I like it!   We didn't get kisses, love confessions, but it's official.. They are in love, married and living together alone, away from the troubles of the world. Cheers to their everyday(hoho) and forever. |

CGKCosmicEntity said: JC missed a lot because of his stubbornness, but isn't that how people in real life actually react. In real life, people act like JC and they do regret. It looks like the Stygian Tiger Amulet hasn't been destroyed yet. So the journey is not over yet?! Someone in this forum stated that the Novel is still ongoing. I'll check that out, & read it from the start. Thank You! The novel is finished! What is ongoing is the official translation to english and the manhua/manga adaptation. Fan translation is still up for the novel, but hurry up because as soon as the novel releases officially, they will remove the fan tl, cause of copyright issues. December 14, volume 1 will be available in english. |

| Why did they reorder things. Why did they make Jiang Cheng go into seclusion? I'm so confused at the logic of these changes. Sure I can enjoy the beautiful animation because I already know the original story but. I recently rewatched the first season and am pretty disappointed at the lost potential. All seasons should've been 15 episodes long and then, I think this would've turned out better. I'll forever be confused at the changes this ending made on Lan Xichen and Jiang Cheng. |
| Bawled my eyes out and now I'll probably have to reread the novel again. I did order the English translation but I feel like December is too far away lol |
| A lot of people are animation only but I strongly recommend reading the novel. It's a complete journey not only for the main pair wangxian but for the side characters too. About Wei WuXian and Jiang Cheng novel spoilers ahead: The Donghua team had only 35 episodes with 20 min lenght to adapt a 113 ch novel that has almost 500k words. So they had to butcher a lot of things and to focus in the main pair. Just a candy for you all and it has something to do with Jiang Cheng, for those that are too angry about his ending. Recently a letter written from Lan WangJi to Wei Wuxian to celebrate happy mid autumn festival was released: "Wei Ying, you've spent more than two years in the cloud recesses resting under the eaves of the room, wine in the woods, experiencing countless sunrises and sunsets, and there are many little things in life that I want to share with you. You have fattened the rabbits in the backyard. Actually, you've also gained weight. Not a lot, don't worry about losing weight. The number of rules jingyi is punished to copy has lessened. Sizhui is able complete tasks on his own. As for Jiang Cheng, letting him entering the cloud recesses for no reason, what kind of custom has formed for sect leader jiang to always be so noisy in the cloud recesses? It's the mid autumn festival again, I know you should be thinking about those who can't be reunited, I have agreed with shufu to invite everyone to write mid autumn festival blessings, just to tell you that we have always been here (for you). Blessings from thousands of people, would you be satisfied with this gift? I've also prepared some small, hand-made objects. when i'm done, they are yours. Happy mid autumn festival, Wei Ying.

| Well... It was kinda rushed, first season was the best while second and this third one was veryyy rushed : ( also... how china's censorship let it pass? |
| Just wanted to stop by and say that I love Jiang Cheng so much T^T! I cried a lot during his scene. Also, he looked so beautiful with his hair down, it reminded me of his parents. Sending him and Jin Ling lots of hugs, and wishing them peace and happiness always T^T And they did really well despite the censorship, to give the feeling of WangXian~ I was glad to see the scene where Xichen talks about how Lan Wangji got the scars, him catching Wei Ying (even if it wasn't from the tree, they still showed his childhood memories with Yanli..which was nice), and how them traveling together reminded him of his parents. When they said the little one, and WangXian, ahhh I was happy ^^ I'm going to miss the donghua. Definitely cried during the op/ed songs, knowing it was the last season. I hope they make more seasons for MDZS Q. Anyway, I pre-ordered my novel, so I look forward to reading it again one day :) |
| 9 / 10, was a great season again, though it did feel a bit rushed. I just wish i could tell people apart / connect names to faces better in this show. Apart from our 2 main boys, i had a hard time following the story. |
I'm not reading any replies or comments directed at me at all. I know my truth and if you disagree: that's fine but i couldn't give a damn about :) |
| I wish Wei Ying and Jiang Cheng sorted out everything by talking it out instead of leaving it messed up like that. I feel bad Jiang Cheng. Lan Zhan and Wei Ying's moments in the last episode was touching. And the music at the end was beautiful. Overall it was really enjoyable even though I didn't understand a few things. But the animation was beautiful and even their voice actors did a great job. So, overall 8/10 |
| I had to take a step back after the previous episodes to watch something that would piss me off like this last season. Episode 12 was barely better than the other episodes. Still more non-canon characterization, weird inserts of events just to finish up without plotholes (LXC poping just to tell about LWJ's scars) and critical missing scenes that aren't Wangxian related. I mean, I love Wangxian, but I love intact characters more. This last half of season I would have rated below 5 but since there was good in this season like the animation, music, nicely handled canon events and I did enjoy the heck of some parts I will give it a 7/10. If only they didn't mess with characterizations so much, it would have been a great season. This was just a pain to watch as a novel fan |
| This season was probably the weakest, felt like watching a summary of the show rather than the actual show. Good stuff: Production Quality, Music Bad stuff: Chinese VA, characters, and gay romance 5/10 |

| this was my first donghua and it was an enjoyable experience. perhaps it's because it's been a while since i've watched anything but i liked it nevertheless. i was a bit reluctant to start it because i am not used to Mandarin but it grew on me. still can't get the hang of the names though, maybe one day overall, looking back on it- the story wasn't terribly intriguing or unique and had a lot "huh..?" moments, BUT there wasn't any terrible plot holes that bothered me and i was never bored. which is the most important in my book. if the story doesn't put me to sleep nor give me a headache due to many unanswered questions, i am happy despite the censoring, the relationship between the two main characters was still conveyed pretty well, even if it was subtle. i honestly did not know this was a BL at first, though. it really doesn't present itself as such, which makes it accessible to most viewers the highlight of this donghua for me personally was the music. i absolutely adore Chinese instruments so this was a treat. a lot of scenes were elevated by 1000% because of the emotional music the art was fine, CGI wasn't too intrusive, the animation was clean. solid all around, although some characters looked too similar to each other, but that's not exclusive to this donghua i think the donghua could have used more episodes or even an extra season to flesh out some characters and the story even further. it felt like some things were definitely skipped, but i have not read the novel so i have no idea i don't have any major complaints aside from what i've mentioned, and i think they did well with what they had to work with. i enjoyed watching this |

| i just can't believe all the things Wei had to live with, taking all the blame for things he didn't do, thinking he was the actual cause of all that happened, survivor's guilt while trying his utmost to help the one person he'd sworn to be there for, and holy crap, he didn't even have his core once the Wens found him on the mountain and pushed him into the burial mounds D: there's just too much reveal about all of the cruelty he had to endure, due to who he was and what he did. also, holy crap, -someone is a goddamn rascal once he get drunk, that wall-scribing, such streetcred. drunk Lan Zhan is the best. so unhinged and primal and forward with what he wants. i crylaughed when the episode rolled around and Wei Wuxuian finally found out what the headband represented, and it gave new light to so many of the scenes where it was included. those other cloudboys must have had some thoughts about seeing their senior having removed his headband and tied it to someone else _xD i personally am a fan of the "strong silent" stereotype, and based on such characters i've seen before, it's a huge thing when they finally show any emotion. while it was a bit of a shaky road during "the before years", as some scenes suggested Lan Zhan wasn't okay with Wei Wuxian fiddling with his headband, during the course of those he seemed to mind slightly less, and once Wei is revived again, the animation of the "strong silent" lad was just him being heads over heels and it was precious and adorable. -the last episodes revealing how much guilt and sorrow he felt for Wei dying on him in the first place, and how he previously had admitted he wanted to bring someone home to protect them, my heart really ached for the poor guy. -i have not read the novel, just some summary of wo-hoo-time between the main characters, i don't understand when people keep saying the anime/donghua was rushed. The pacing was pretty good to me, especially compared to anime with much worse pacing i've seen. It was, to me, pretty easy to follow, and the politics i only managed to keep track of since the different teams were color-coded. very sad there are, like, no slow-burn male x male romance stories out there on the animated market, or if there is, i haven't come across them yet. This was also my first time watching a chinese production like this, and don't think i've watched any chinese-language animation before, but it was an interesting and rather pleasant experience. the only real minus i have to give is the censorship, i applaud the animators and producers for still "sneaking" so many hints into the show itself, without explicitly saying dudes are more than just bros. -i kinda wish stuff like this could be more wholesome with less tragedy though, like the things both Wen Ning and Wei Wuxian went through. a bit sad that it's over, and while i had hoped to watch some other chinese animations i've heard are based on BL-stories, i also doubt i will "fully" enjoy them if they are censored like this one. TL;DR: this was a whole hecking ride! glad i watched it, sad about the censoring, and to hell with power-hungry types who stop at nothing to get what they want. |
 I like to comment Episodes as i Watch them. |
