The premise for this anime is extremely interesting, sadly with how short the episodes are it just feels too rushed and doesn't convey the story as well as it could have.

I originally watched the anime before reading the web novel and I have to say the anime doesn't do the web novel justice. I loved the idea of the story and felt that the anime was truly lacking so I sought out an English translation of the web novel to gain the enjoyment this idea presents. The anime only gives a very rough summary of the story and a shallow glimpse into the relationships ... between each character. The shortness of the episodes and the abrupt ending fail to convey the story as it should have been done. As well, there are many changes between the two formats with the anime failing to meet the same satisfaction towards the story line as what the web novel conveyed. It lacks the gravity of the betrayl between Yun Qi and Su Luo and fails to portray the weight of Nangong Liuyun and Su Luo's relationship; which is the whole premise for the story. Overall the anime is too short and rushed to accurately portray the story leaving the viewer unsatisfied with the end result.

I would recommend, if you're truly interested in the story, to read the web novel as the anime fails to provide a resolution to the story as it abruptly ends. The anime ends around chapter 114 of the web novel and covers maybe an 1/8 of the story to that point. It combines many of the plot elements while leaving a large majority of the story out and adds some aspects that just do not flow right and leaves the viewer confused. At the time of this review the web novel is ongoing, yet unless you devour books as I do, it is far enough ahead to provide a few months of reading before you catch up. It updates Friday evenings.
