PERFEITO!!!
não tem como não se apaixonar por wangxian em todos os universos e eu sou a prova viva. É uma história ao mesmo tempo linda e confusa, mas quando você começa a entender e sabe o que existe por trás (que foi censurado) se torna ainda melhor.é uma linda história de amor, falando sobre lealdade e desejo de poder. Dá pra sentir as emoções das cenas através dos olhares dos atores, por mais que os efeitos sejam duvidosos é um dorama que vale a pena, ainda mais se você for obcecado pelo universo de mdzs. Assisti por uma amiga, e só me arrependo de ter demorado a terminar.

WOW
That's all I can really say.....
when I heard of this show a year ago I didn't think I was gonna love it as much as I did. BL is one of my favorite genres to watch and when I heard about the censorship in China I was doubtful that the script writers could pull off the love story between Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji but boy did they ever! I knew of the novel before hand, I haven't read it yet but I knew enough to know and be worried as to how much would be edited out. While yeah a lot of their romance was cut due to the producers/writers probably being worried about getting banned I still felt how much the characters loved each other thru some of the writing's sneakiness lol. There were certain scenes that felt like they were really pushing against the restrictions the censorship to show the bond between WWX and LWJ. But that wasn't all: which brings me to the acting. I'm gonna say that it feels like Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo were born to play these roles. They certainty brought their characters to life. Not only them but the rest of the cast was magnificent too. I appreciate the time that was given into casting these actors because I was not be disappointed with any of them. XZ and WYB were amazing like I said(can't praise them enough lol) with how much(or how little) they were allowed to show in respect to their romance they did an excellent job. I was completely sold on how much Wuxian and Wangji loved each other throughout the show despite it being shown thru subtext and chemistry. Truly it was all about their chemistry they knew how to sell that love even with them being restricted. I can't picture any other actors in these roles tbh. Even my brother who knew nothing of the romance between Wangji & Wuxian asked me if they were in love? lol. He feels it.
But that wasn't the only reason I loved The Untamed so much. This was my first foray into Wuxia/fantasy and I got to say i was completely emerged in the story, setting, plot, characters, costumes, world building from the get go! There was no episode where I wasn't entertained completely. Though the some of the effects could use more work I can't complain too much everything on this show is worth it. I'm so glad I decided to watch this because It's now my favorite Chinese drama. Just reviewing it makes me want to watch it again, and I probably will. This was definitely a treasure which I'll always rate 10/10! From the costumes to the music, acting etc theres nothing I hate. Even some of the vile villains I can't 100% hate. So if anyone still hasn't watched the Untamed what are you waiting for?

Still Longing
It has been a long journey. From the 50 lengthy episodes to the spinoffs and behind-the-scenes, it has been one hell of a journey. Even though, the production censored the gay parts, I would still give this series a 10 out of 10. Without the knowledge of this being adapt from a BL novel, I would still say that it is a masterpiece. It's beyond masterpiece. All the components of a good drama can be found in 'The Untamed' ,OSTs, Acting Skills, Visuals, Cinematography, Precise Audio Technicality. A huge kudos to the author of MDZS and all people that made it come to a reality. Even though it was ended without any much loose ends, I'm still waiting for another Season. It was indeed Lengthy yet I'm still Longing for another round. I hope to see more of Xue Yang and the background and story of the other characters and of course, how will Wei and Lan really ends up? This series is ver promising, I'll not get tired of it promoting this drama. For those who are looking forward to watch this adaptation, Rest Assured, This one will never fail you. Each episode is packed and stable. It's indeed impressive. Hope you enjoy it :)Cet avis était-il utile?
If you can't get enough, I would recommend haunting archiveofourown.org for the fanfics on the series as well. There are some really good ones on Xueyang / Xiao Xing Chen if you are hoping for a happier alternative endings.
I hope China will keep on making live action movies & dramas out of some of their really amazing novels.

Não tenho palavras para descrever o quanto amo
The Untamed foi meu primeiro drama histórico chinês. No começo, eu estava completamente perdida, não entendendo nada do que tava acontecendo. E, ok, é normal, já que a linha do tempo desse drama é um pouco confusa (de estar no presente, voltar ao passado e depois voltar para o presente de novo).Primeiramente, reclamei bastante de ter basicamente 30 episódios só de flashback, mas acabou que, desse jeito, foi muito mais fácil de entender do que se ficasse indo e voltando entre presente e passado.
Em relação a obra original, mesmo com todos os empecilhos de censura, The Untamed fez uma adaptação excelente. Mesmo que a história do Ferro Yin tenha sido um pouco confusa (e algo a mais, pois não tem isso na novel) provavelmente foi uma manobra para deixarem os Wangxian tendo mais tempo juntos.
O desenvolvimento deles, apesar de toda a censura, foi uma das coisas mais lindas que eu já vi. Os atores conseguiram também transmitir muito bem todos os sentimentos dos personagens e dava para entender apenas pelos olhares. A confiança e o conforto que eles possuem um no outro... É de outro mundo.
Não posso deixar de falar do elenco, que foi simplesmente FANTÁSTICO, eu não tenho do que reclamar. Todos foram incríveis em seus papéis. Em especial, deixo um apelo ao Xiao Zhan (que interpretou o Wuxian), pois ele realmente se entregou de corpo e alma para esse papel.
Por fim, recomendo MUITO The Untamed, recomendo também a história original "mo dao zu shi" (só cuidado pois a história não é censurada e é mais pesada).
obs.: quem gostar da história original, recomendo "tian guan ci fu"! Eles até gravaram uma live-action chamada "eternal faith", mas tá difícil sair por conta da censura 😢😢

Cast: Truly good, both actors and voice actors.
Music: I don't even know how many times I have listened to the soundtrack album. (Which is actually sung by the cast)
Rewatch Value: I am not usually a person that rewatches tv-shows (especially ones that have so many episodes) but the Untamed just calms my heart every time I watch it .
If a perfect drama existed, this one would have been it for me.
it's been months since i have finished it and I'm still not over it.
Give it a try and you won't regret it.

An epic fantasy with deep meaning
It would not be an exaggeration to say this story has changed my life. The acting is exquisite and every actor does this story justice. This is a story of relationships on so many levels, and about life and both it’s beauty and cruelty. You get to watch a large cast age and grow together, and get way too invested in all the plot points and sub plots. The set design and costuming is amazing and the theme song now brings tears to my eyes. I love the story and magic of it but at the same time I’ve had to stop and think for a minute about the deeper means behind some of the scenes and how the wisdom can apply to my own life.Cet avis était-il utile?

AND IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA WATCH IT IT'S UR LOSSCet avis était-il utile?
So now, let me get into this review.
A little background: I'd never watched any xianxia drama (not even historical ones) and since I know many chinese shows are like that, I stayed away from them, because I feared not understanding the plot and not connecting to the characters. Nonetheless, when I saw the drama was one of the top-rated of all time I decided to check its profile page here on mydramalist and the plot really attracted me. I had no idea it was adapted from a BL novel (I like bl dramas a lot!!). But then I saw one of the actors is Wang Yibo and I remembered that name. I found out he was actually a member from a group I really like (Uniq) and I got even more intrigued. After reading some of the reviews and comments and realising the two main leads were supposed to be a couple, I was hooked. Even though it's portrayed as a bromance, I don't mind it because I love close friendships too.
I watched the first episode and I was LOST. I didn't know what was going on, who was friends with who, what cultivation was, why everyone hated the cinamonroll that is wei wuxian. The names confused me too. I left some comments on this page lol they serve as proof.
But as the drama progressed, things were starting to get clearer and clearer. After episode 10 I was already fully immersed in the story and I lived each moment of each episode very intensely. I don't want to write spoilers in this review but the way they structured this show is so well made because we get to know the characters and their intentions very well before jumping back to the present time. It's different from the novel and I think it's a good different.
I'm not sure this is the best acting I've ever seen. Honestly, I would have very much preferred the actors could use their own voices because a big part of the actor's abilities lay on their voice. I think some actors overdid their acting and some of the movements were strangely executed, like JiangCheng. I also think the team should have payed more attention to the cinematography. Even if this wasn't a high budget drama they could have worked with the lightening and the framing a bit more. I think the lack of editing was more noticeable on the last episodes. I liked the sentimental part of the last five episodes but I couldn't understand why they were in that situation and didn't run away??? Anyways, I don't want to spoil so I won't talk too much about it but I did find it weird. Some camerawork and editing could be better.
Although technically the drama wasn't the best (probably due to its low budget, most probably), it was still beautiful. The actors are S T U N N I NG, each and every one of them. Like, I didn't even know where to look!! The main leads are sooooo charming, in different ways. Our mesmerising Lan Zhan (Wang Yibo) is sublime. His facial expressions and body language were so interesting to watch. Very very very talented. And then there's XiaoZhan as Wei Ying, who literally went through hell for being too good for his world. Their chemistry is mind-blowing. The smiles they give at each other, the intimate looks, the subtle touches. To me their relationship was very obvious and I'm actually thankful they did it this way; somehow, it worked better than any BL I've ever watched.
In my opinion, every side character was soooo interesting!! The villains were great, the goodies were great, the moodies too (JiangChen, I'm talking about you). Personally, my favorite villain was the last one (don't want to spoil anyone lol). I just really like the actor, he looks so cute like what???? And the character was the most interesting to me. XueYang was just cruel, in my opinion. But I'm reading the novel now so I'll probably understand the characters a lot better!!
I finished watching this drama on Saturday and I've been writing this review ever since then hahaha This was the hardest review I've ever written because of the drama's length and my feelings about it. But, in conclusion, I'd just like to say that this drama really did change something in me and my perception of good and evil and I think the script is simply genius for making us like the guy who was supposed to be bad and how restraining the "good side" can be. I'll definitely rewatch this in the near future, probably this year or early next year if I'm being honest. When I'm done reading the novel I'll just watch interviews of the cast, suffer on twitter and wait for the MOVIES THAT ARE BEING RELEASED VERY SOON!!! Being a fan of this show is not bad at all.

This is a love story no matter how much it wasn't supposed to be viewed that way. Love is the most important theme in the story and it isn't necessarily just romantic love but familial. I recommend this story to anyone who wants an all consuming show.
