3.0/10 - A quieter introduction.

I feel like most C-dramas can be hot messes in the first episode. So I have to give Arsenal Military Academy credit for taking it slow and simply showing us who the players are. The only flashback we get is Xie Xiang cutting her hair to become Xi Liang Chen. Hope I didn't get her boy and girl name mixed up there!

That said this episode was slow. It was nice to get everyone's names and get some solid setup. But I still don't have strong emotions about it. Which is normal at this stage. Even with the episode taking a much quieter approach to the story. As the episode progressed I will say I started to get attached to the characters gradually. Which is something most C-dramas can have a hard time doing when setting up their story! So well done.

By the end I was totally invested in Xie Xiang supporting her new country bumpkin friend (his name escapes me, but I say bumpkin with pride as I am one).

I don't really have strong emotions at this point for the drama or an opinion. Not much happened. I will say I laughed a few parts, and rolled my eyes right a long with Xie Xiang.
