Till the End of the Moon (2023)

Beautiful Story That can Hook Viewers to feel emotion, cry, happy an pain.

Binge watching this series is really worth it,
I love this story, ML an FL both have good chemistry.

First, this is my completed xianxia drama watching, i'm really like chinese costume drama like the rise of the phoenixes but not really into xianxia drama.

Truthfully, i'm watching this because of Bai Lu, i
like her acting at one and only so i'm interested with this drama when airing at youku. Surprisingly, i'm fall in love with luo yunxi acting, he is really good actor. He really can pulled viewers to put emotion into his characters, and i like this is his voice and not voice actor. He is rare talent, he can perfectly played differently as Demon God, Tantai Jin, Ming Ye, and Cang Jiu Min. His hand gesture as Ming Ye is really beautiful and really like a God. I'm really like tantai jin when he is still hostage prince.

I know this is not perfect drama, i'm mostly bothered with lighting. Luo yunxi make up also sometimes excessive when in Jing Arc.
But the story itself is really good, i like their love story and their sacrifices.

Many people not satiesfied with the Ending. But i think it is best ending since their love is doom from start. Just enjoying their love story, angst and pain, the most important think is not the ending right but beautiful story that can hook viewers to feel emotion, cry, happy an pain.

Finally the best show after all this time. No good shows to my liking were coming out but then finally I watched this one. The amount of times I cried and the chemistery between the couple is unmatched. They both were in Love is Sweet and thats when I fell in love with Lou Yunxi and Bai Lu. I'm happy they both were in this show as well. The ending, I was not expected and was hoping they would be together but I guess not *cries*. As the show Broker, this will also be on my mind for a month and will make me sad. I do hope there will be a season 2, please I really need a season 2 for this! Or honestly any new drama that will be a super hit and has both Luo Yunxi & Bai Lu in it. With a happy happy happy ending!

Extravagant yet sincere drama

This drama is extravagant and highly ambitious - Three different timelines, stories, characters with the same protagonist and antagonist interconnected with each other by fate. I was surprised that they actually pulled it off rather effectively :) Special mention to the main roles because it was never easy!

Aside from the plot, I honestly appreciate the sincerity of this piece, from their innovative costumes, accessories/accents, gestures, graphic effects, settings down to their posters, music ,promo materials and props - all were well thought off. Kudos to all the cast and the director/s and every single individual behind this piece! Looking forward to more quality Chinese drama like this!

Loving you is painful, but if it means I can love you for one more day, I will.

As an avid drama watcher, I can vouch for this drama if you're looking to start watching one. It's the perfect choice for you.

Story-wise: There's no doubt that it offers one of the best, most complex, and captivating storylines. In summary, it revolves around a painful love where the characters are willing to sacrifice and even die for each other. If you're seeking a love story that takes you through the highs of heaven and the lows of hell, this is it. The dialogue in this drama is highly quotable, filled with life and love lessons throughout.

Wardrobe-wise: This drama stands out as one of the best historical dramas, I promise. The robes, capes, and other wardrobe pieces, as well as the accessories, headpieces, and makeup, are all top-notch. Although in some episodes, you may notice a bit of heavy makeup on TTJ, as his character needs to appear pale, resulting in a very white complexion.

Acting skills: Let me assure you, the performances by BL and LYX, who portray lovers and enemies at the same time, are absolutely brilliant. They bring each character to life in their respective life stages with great skill. What's remarkable is their chemistry, which only grows stronger, and you can truly feel their emotions through the screen. My only concern is that LYX seems too skinny, which bothers me. Did he even take care of his health? Regardless, my poor baby truly gave his best in every aspect.

In conclusion: Just go ahead and watch it. It's worth every hour of your time.

Till the end of Male Lead life for good

For those who plan to watch it, if you are looking for good looking drama, costumes or you fancy any of the main leads, this is your drama or else prepare yourselves for disappointing (it a long 40 episodes) ride.

The Good:
1) The costumes are really good, ML (devil god look) is watching anime sketch coming to life.
2)1-10 episodes peaks your interest as ML actually showcases borderline psychotic Ness which is refreshing from gooddy gooddy or tsundere character
3)Third couple actually have better love-story than other main couples.
4) Luo yunxi nails the character to the point you can't imagine anyone in the character. Most of the actors are not bad.
5) Music is not bad, slowly it strikes you; CGI is better than majority of costume dramas out there.

The Bad:
1)The Editing; after episode 9 it gets to the point you would go through stages from laughing - cursing - painfully unbearable.
2)Story shamelessly tips in favor of male lead to the point forget about support character even FL character does not have proper development aside from ML. ML gets constantly abused n painted as villain, you would rooting him to become one.
3)Open ending is big fuck you to audience after going through 40 episodes of torture. I mean come on, is it too much to ask for closure these days?

Better costume dramas available out in terms of plot; But when it comes to costumes & CGI this one is clear winner.

Emotional Rollercoaster

My thoughts after immediately finishing the drama. Just word vomit.

With all the suffering the ML goes through, his heart is still pure and true (even his master and Susu's Dad said so!!!), and yet in the end, he has to die and pay for sins he did not commit. I was hoping karma would do its magic and have him become a God after dying as the Devil T_T since the dragon in Bore's life indicated there's a fine line between him becoming a God vs Devil, meaning he could have become a God! I also got really upset that the evil do-ers didn't get what they deserved, while the good suffered. Also, it was so odd go the female lead kept going back and forth with her hate and love towards the ML. I'm like, if you believed in him, maybe he didn't have to become to Devil, but at the end you understand, this is his so-called destiny. Ugh, my heart.

Excellent acting, Satisfying visuals

I can't describe how many times I was in awe whenever I saw Luo Yun Xi's acting on screen, his facial expression really gets you in the story. Have never connected as much with a devil before. Despite knowing he's a devil, Luo Yun Xi as an actor is able to bring you to symphatize with him, feel the pain that the character went through.

The chemistry between the leads were great as well, especially between Tan Tai Jin and Ye Xi Wu, both were very natural that you'll keep wanting for more romantic scenes from them.

As for the storyline, you may expect to watch a very romance-based plot throughout the episodes, pretty satisfying if you are someone who prefers romance over a general story plot. The front episodes were very well-written that intrigues you into the story, the mid till the end episodes were the most heart-wrenching, but you'll still watch it till the end. The visuals were stunning, you can tell the editors put a lot of effort in it. Really depicts the beauty of Chinese fantasy realms.

I don't really write reviews, but I really really wanna applaud Luo's acting in this drama ranging from his expressions even to his fighting scenes, he really shine throughout the drama for me. There were a lot of hate going on in Weibo towards him for being too "skinny" for the role, but for me, it makes perfect sense with his look corresponding to his role. So big big kudos to the actors and actresses in this drama, they've done a really good job in this drama.

This sets a precedent for all future cdramas.

First and foremost, the effort put into the clstume design, setting, cgi, effects etc are clearly seen through the absolute breathtaking scenes. The makeup and accessories were perfect and accentuated the characters' personality.

Plot: It was simply near perfection. The only thing was the rushed ending for me, hence the 9.5 for plot. The side characters could be a bit more fleshed out at the end, however it was rushed possibly due to the limit of 40eps, cutting out scenes. Main cpl had a beautiful love/hate relationship and I LOVE LOVE how it was so complex and explored. None of the terribly cliched tropes (e.g. trip and kiss) come up in this series, and instead we get a forgiving and completely loving ML and a smart and kind-hearted FL.

I have cried many times watching this, especially for our poor ML as well as some side characters. The complex emotions and thoughts I had when I understood yet hated all the misunderstandings, has really made it unforgettable to me.

BaiLu and LuoYunXi were absolutely fantastic eith their acting, with even miniscule movements or expressions showing hundreds of hidden feelings. They have managed to portray so many different characters and personalities perfectly, really superb skills.

The OST was beautiful and always played at the right times. The music in general are all enjoyable and adds the right atmosphere to scenes.

If you're still hesitating, don't. This is the best romance cdrama to have yet existed, and it's on a far different level than all others. Hopefully future producers will take a page from this series, and grow up from their current overused tropes and plotlines.

One thing - this series is OE. For me, I interpretted it as a HE but it may differ for others. But it is implied more to be a HE in the series. I do wish happiness for our ML.

An epic story that suffered from being cut and edited

Till the End of the Moon had the potential to be amazing, but unfortunately it didn't stick the landing. The first 1/3 of the show had me hooked. I know the show had to be cut down to fit 40 episodes, but as a result, the quality really dropped in my opinion.

A 7.5 rating is me being generous in this case. It felt like the pieces of the story were out of order and being thrown together in a non-cohesive fashion. Which character is randomly popping up next? Let us tell you what happened to lead to this event after we show you the result. Why introduce unnecessary "???" moments? In some instances in other suspense and mystery dramas it works out, but here I just felt like it wasn't necessary to delay the explanations (like why Tantai Jin appeared at XXX location). I noticed the awkward cuts and fades in between scenes and I really can't think of another drama where I consciously thought to myself, "wow, this editing is bad."

I don't have a huge problem with the way the show ended in general - but I am in the camp of feeling like we could've benefited from more closure, more revelation, just more. It's sad.

I went into this show without any expectations and, after seeing it be really good, I developed hopes that it would continue to shine. The music is great and the imagery was as well. All in all, it isn't a bad drama and I enjoyed watching it - but I can't overlook the unrefined and messy storytelling and presentation of the latter half.
