Wu Geng Ji Zhi Tianqi

Hello MAL users, are you here to read my review? That's great hear from you! Let's begin with "Rate the Anime Story".

Story: It's very nice background of each characters. For example, Wu Geng's thought about his life is completely different than I thought. I enjoyed Wu Geng Ji 2nd Season since I watched first season. If you haven't watch first season. You should do watch first season then you might understand the story of Wu Geng Ji.

Art: It's great graphic and amazing visual! It's almost like CGI (Computer Graphic animation) or 3D animation! I feel amazed by watched Wu Geng Ji!

Sound: Uh...I don't ... usually to turn volume on. But! I do frequently to turn volume on. Wu Geng Ji have good sound.

Character: It's excellent character that could fit story of Wu Geng Ji! Every character have different roles, title of rank, and goals too. Even their events of life are completely different but have reasons why they may changed their life.

Enjoyment: I am really enjoyed and liking to watch action. It's good and Wu Geng Ji 2nd Season is still continuing so I don't know if it will be end or running it.

Overall: I would say that Wu Geng Ji 2nd Season is great other season! And it could make you feel excite or enjoy it by watch it. I would recommend you but if you have watched Wu Geng Ji 1st season. But it is up to you! This is my favorite dongman (Chinese animation/ Chinese anime).

Wu Geng Ji Season 2 is a training arc.

Season 2 Recap (Spoilers)
Wu Geng leaves the treacherous blood stone mines after meeting with his Grandfather. In Season 2, we are introduced to a lot of different concepts. Wu Geng finally joins with the hidden gods tribe, a once prosperous village of gods that rejected the corrupt way of Tian. After getting repeatedly attacked, their numbers dwindle forcing Wu Geng to fight Shi Xing - a masochistic Great god of ferocious affiliation. Wu Geng is captured by Shi Xing and is sent to prison at Ghost City, a former flourishing desert City plagued by the High ... Priestess due to Shi Xing's former affection with humans. It is at Ghost City where Wu Geng reunites with his Uncle Zi Yu to fight against Shi XIng on the night of the blood tribute. After defeating Shi Xing, Wu Geng and gang head to reunite with Bai Cai and the hidden gods tribe. Bai Cai meets an unexpected guest in the afterlife who helps her soul reunite with her body after protecting Wu Geng from Zhui Ri's lightning attribute attacks. The Dark ones, a warrior race that fled into the underworld one hundred thousand years ago by ancient gods join the fight and teach Bai Cai some attack and defense abilities. The climax of the season happens as Wu Geng finishes his qi cultivation on Phantom Island, an island that fauna and flora rely on qi to survive. The High Priestess and Tian Kui make an appearance to eradicate the remnants of the hidden gods tribe which gets sabotaged when the dark ones, a reawakened phoenix-fused Shi XIng and finally Wu Geng appear.

Story: 3/10
The story is vast and very entertaining yet the execution is very bad. Imagine watching almost 2 hours of fighting between Shi Xing and Wu Geng (and eventually Zi Yu) only to have Shi Xing come back as a good guy. The series loves to drag on fight scenes to the point where it's just bland colorful sword auras and monochrome filters. The fight scenes are still back and forth where Wu Geng is on the edge of death but somehow is rescued but still fights again until he's on the edge of death and he's saved by his enemy only to fight again and again. The fight scenes really like to test my patience. This happens again when Zhui Ri is tasked with killing Wu Geng but somehow lets him live because his unrequited love sacrifices her life to protect him, even going as far as to give up his life essence to revive her. Doesn't make any sense.

Art & Sound: 5/10

Character: 4/10
Character development was probably ok. A lot happened in terms of characters being established, developed and removed in season 2. The reawakening of the phoenix and Shi Xing was pretty good and even introducing the dark ones to the remnants of fallen gods tribe. Also seeing the social hierarchy of gods at the end, when Tian is in slumber the High Priestess takes authority but when the High Priestess is incapacitated, the elders take authority. Even going as far as mobilizing what seems to be the royal guards/law enforcement of the gods. Apart from that, everything else is just there to establish the characters.

Overall: 4/10
I was excited for this but was let down because of dragged out fight scenes and terribly slow plot progression.
