Season 3 is finally here. I still can't believe it!
The ep began with a super short summary of the story so far then they jumped right into starting the Yi City arc.

I really love watching Wei Ying use his powers... No one can compare to THE Yiling Laozu when it comes to using demonic cultivation. x)

I am so happy to see my favourite characters again on screen. The art style is so damn pretty...especially the op, ed visuals. I am a bit disappointed about the songs though. I was so in love with the previous op/ed s.
Yi city arc started. Can't wait to see more of Xiao Xingchen's frost flower sword in the coming eps.

So can anyone tell me if I should read the novel? Because I was too hyped for the anime season 3 I didn't read the novel to avoid any spoilers. But if they skipped any arc then I'd be more than happy to pick the novel up!
Thanks in advance.

Wooo the third and final season's finally here! Wei Ying using chenqing is always so riveting to watch. Excited for the upcoming episodes; Yi City is probably my second favorite arc. The pacing seems pretty quick already though, anyone know how many episodes this season is going to have?

The title of their eps start with "ENG SUB" so I would think so.

The flute he's using right now is just a regular bamboo flute. xD
This season will have 12 eps. I wish it was longer!

If you want to read the novel, you should read it soon because mdzs (and mxtx’s other novels) are getting an official English translation! This means that the fan translations online will eventually get taken down. MDZS’ first volume will release on December 7. It’ll have 5 volumes in total :)

Yi City arc is here and I'm ready to get hurt again

I love how Lan Zhan comforted Wei Wuxian by caressing his hand when he was scared of the dogs T_T

The OP is really good and has romantic undertones which is great. The animation and the voice acting are amazing as per usual. I am not sure how tf they will be able to fit everything that remains in 12 eps but.... okay. That's a really weird and concerning choice but who knows. I just want the pacing to be better than s2, they cut so much stuff (like Jiang Yanli and Jin Zixuan's backstory) and it just lacked the emotional punch of the novel. But with the number of episodes, it's highly unlikely that they won't cut a shit ton of things. At least, as far as I can remember Yi City is one of the earlier arcs.

Man I'm just glad to see Lan Wangji and Wei Wuxian traveling together again, I haven't read the novel in a long time and it's been quite a long time since the donghua's previous season was airing too. I missed them <3

This season is so beautifully rendered. The ED and OP are lovely and the English subs are quite good. The mix of 2d and 3d is so well done.

If you haven't watched the first two seasons you're going to be lost, so look up "Mo Dao Zu Shi English Subs" on YouTube, you'll find it there to watch for free. Just remember, the second episode ends with the story going into a flashback that will last for the rest of the season.

Great Episode! Well of course, Animation is 10/10.

This is the last season? Oh no!! I hope this is long!!

Xue Lan is here! I remember him from the drama, so I can't wait to see him here too.

The donghua and drama are both so different. While I prefer the drama more because of better story telling and more characters, I do like this version as well for the excitement and beauty.

The animation and music was really spot on. I’m really liking this masterpiece, it just gets better and better. I love the change in Lan Zhan, his small smiles is really heart fluttering. Wei Ying’s teasing and getting embarrassed was peak wholesomeness. And also love me some Jin Ling screentime, I love that boi. XDXD I’m really looking forward to seeing these new characters and plotline!!

That opening is very good, better than the one from the previous seasons. Probably one of the best I've seen in terms of art and audiovisual alignment and therefore one of the best overall.

To expand on this, I will provide commentary below.

The opening sequence of the opening with the falling flower is beautifully animated and detailed. Its colors and the subtle ink-wash blots in the background really set the artistic tone. A bonus is that the flower reverses its path according to the music notes and gives off a sense of unity. And the opening melody just gives me the chills: you could really tell the emotion in that flute. Overall, this scene is probably my favorite.

The next scene is also great since it showcases the beauty of emptiness: the lone boat flows up in the center, nothing surrounding it save for reflections.

Next, the gold lining of the water waves is a nice touch. Note that the transition into this scene is perfectly timed, and the key change is great too.

The moving shot of the landscape right after is gorgeous. The CGI models really blend in and work, and the show's title shows up aligned to a beat. About the music, that descending piano arpeggio in the background gives some more color to the music and fits well with the camera's downward moving shot. Right on the first bass note we immediately get into the next sequence of bamboos and a flute - nice timing again.

Let's skip the next scenes with the two main characters, though the door closing in front of Lan Wangji is timed well.

The two swords appear, timed as always, and are almost immediately followed by the paper-like things which I unfortunately have no knowledge of. Now at this point I must mention the key change, which is a welcome surprise after the initial typical melody.

Skipping some other scenes, we now see the main characters fight by a sword's reflection. This may be a throwback to the famous fighting on swords scene in season 1's opening.

Next, the diagonally-falling charm thingy is brilliantly animated, so much that it almost seemed out of place due to its insane detail.

Right after, we see Lan Wangji drinking - an impactful scene and one that comes right at the start of a new phrase in the melody so that it would be more memorable.

The previous scene transforms into a falling water droplet which is nicely done as well.

Onto the last scene, the rolling scroll and its color change are nice touchs. The title appears again, but this time it's a tracking text, which definitely caught me by surprise. Finally, that guqin or guzheng (can't tell) note is aligned with the sudden change in the ink-wash color.

Whew, that was a lot. Might turn it into a blog post. Overall, B.CMAY did an extremely commendable job here.

The animation looks more beautiful now, it seems to have improved a lot more than the previous seasons.

The OP and ED are beautiful.

Lan Zhan has started smiling a lot now.

This was so touching when he smiled looking at Wei Ying.

I had to start another anime to keep myself from watching a crappy version of episode 1-2 I found online. The waiting paid off. Donghua team srsly killed it again. I am in love with the animation and art.
LWJ is smiling soooo much! I can literally feel it from the screen how much he's happy that WWX is back. Donghua team really pushed a soft and fluffy Wangxian a lot. I love it!

I honestly have no idea which part was my favourite, perhaps the whole episode? I love seeing JGY, especially how cute he was in the flashback.

XXC's eyes look so beautiful *cries*. I know I will be broken by the time this wonderful and painful arc is finished.

I already see some changes but nothing bad, some of it is very interesting. Particularly how NMJ is very much aware of JGS's shite. I'll keep this noted NMJ...

I definitely preferred the previous OP.

I think there was just too much exposition on the whole overcomplicated Xue Yang affair, in contrast with the previous seasons which used 'show' rather than 'tell'.
