This review is from point of view of someone who has never read Ze Tian Ji/Way of Choices novel nor has seen any Live Action adaption of the same.

The story starts pretty slow i.e. pacing is slow in initial episodes. I thought of giving up on this but then realized that this is not an action heavy anime. This is more of a Fantasy Drama. Story is quite interesting along with the MC, Cheng Chang Sheng. Have patience during initial episodes. Story will pick pace during ending episodes.

If you are expecting the MC to be OP then this anime is not for you. MC is ... a genius, thats all. Doesn't have any special power or hidden talent.

I'll recommend watching this series for its story. Animation is bit old (nothing too flashy, enough to convey the story). Best part are the OST of the anime which reminded me of old Chinese dynasty fantasy films I used to watch.

Overall, I'll recommend this series for its story and people who are interested in fantasy and drama genre.

This anime is a hidden gem. Funny as hell but action packed as well. It follows the story of Gu Hai and his companions.

Anime is more like China's Gintama version, too many references to other animes which makes it more fun and enjoyable. Overall, good animation and art style, cool and funny dialogs and good character development. You'll enjoy conversation between the trio i.e. Gu Hai, his server Will Smith PoPo (yup thats his name) and Gao Xian Zhi.

There is little bit of romance as well, but that comes at the ending episodes where more of Gu Hai's past is revealed.

The first season ends ... with a big cliffhanger.
