Synopsis

In his past life, although too weak to protect his home when it counted, out of grave determination Nie Li became the strongest Demon Spiritist and stood at the pinnacle of the martial world. However, he lost his life during the battle with the Sage Emperor and six deity-ranked beasts.

His soul was then brought back to when he was still 13 years old. Although he's the weakest in his class with the lowest talent, having only a red soul realm and a weak one at that, with the aid of the vast knowledge which he accumulated from his previous life, he decided to train faster than anyone could expect. He also decided to help those who died nobly in his previous life to train faster as well.

He aims to protect the city from the coming future of being devastated by demon beasts and the previous fate of ending up destroyed. He aims to protect his lover, friends, family and fellow citizens who died in the beast assault or its aftermath. And he aims to destroy the so-called Sacred family who arrogantly abandoned their duty and betrayed the city in his past life.

Tales of Demons & Gods, a Chinese 'anime' adaptation of the popular Martial arts Manhua and Light Novel by the same name is quite underwhelming. After reading the Manhua and checking if the adaptation was any good, I can confirm that the series follows the story line of the Manhua very closely but the camera angles and shots make watching it so and so. Overall, would have loved the adaptation to be in 2D but there may have been time restrictions that permitted the used of 3D rigged animation instead.

Mixed Feelings
Yaoshenji, or Tales of Demons and Gods, is one of those new Chinese anime that I really want to like, but really can't bring myself to. As an adaptation of a popular web-novel and manga, it already has really good plot behind it. However, the choices that the animation studio has chosen have severely undercut this massive advantage.

One of the most glaring problems is the length of each episode. Episodes are around 7 minutes long on average, but if you consider that the opening and ending animations take up 2 minutes, then you're left with just 5 minutes of actual storyline per episode. While this ...

Preliminary (2/40 eps)
I guess that one is not from me. Tales of Demon and Gods is a rather famous webnovel (which I've read a huge part of) which was later adapted into a manhwa and a donghua.
I think TDG is pretty overrated and isn't as good as over well known webnovels.
I've also read the manhwa which I found rather average, but I decided to give the anime a try.
Unfortunately right of the bat I have several problems with the anime and here is why:
1) 7 minutes per episodes. I just hate that format, a good episode length is between 18-25 minutes and nothing happens in 7 minutes ...
