Xian Ni

This is straight garbage. I'm compelled to a write a review for this after seeing this atrociously high score and the ridiculous number of 10/10s. These better be bots cause I can't fathom how real people could have awarded such perfect scores to this catastrophe.The animation is trash, the voice acting is trash, the music is trash, the story is trash, there are no redeeming qualities in this shitshow.

This is what always happens when a chinese web novel gets adapted. The storyline gets so censored beyond recognition that if you showed this crap to a fan of the novel without the character names they wouldn't ... even RECOGNIZE it! The intricate cultivation system is entirely skipped, numerous chapters are crammed into single, rushed episodes, and the atrocious 3D animation only exacerbates the problem.

My advice? Steer clear of this foul, dirty mess! Read the web novel if you're interested. Anything but this.

This review is for first season / 38 episodes.

I am writing this review because there is only one available and my guy said only bots gives this anime 10 out of 10, so I am kinda offended and he can eat sh**.

He noted that web novel is good and anime as a whole is bad adaptation.
- "animation is trash, the voice acting is trash, the music is trash, the story is trash"

I do not read web novels so I will not comment on that part but I do not know what my guy expects because compared to a lot of other chinese anime everything he ... noted is at least decent.

My answer to him is that he should watch at least some of anime below before commenting like that:
1. Peerless Martial Spirit
2. The Secrets of Star Divine Arts
3. Alchemy Supreme
4. One Hundred Thousand Years of Qi Refining
5. Ten Thousand Worlds
6. Against The Sky Supreme
7. The Wonderland of Ten Thousand
8. Supreme God Emperor
9. The Legend of Sword Domain
10. Spirit Sword Sovereign
11. The God of War Dominates
12. Ancient Myth
13. The Success Of Empyrean Xuan Emperor
...

At first I gave anime gift grade 9 out of 10, but after 20 episodes or so I changed it to 10 out of 10 purely because it was so much fun for me watching main character saying one big F U to the world at some point.

Negative:
1. Start of anime is bit random, so you are not really sure what to expect.

Neutral:
1. "Situ Nan" (some random guy who only has his soul left and follows main character) is kinda nerfed version of "Yao Chen" from "Battle Through the Heavens".
2. Main character does not stay in one place for long, more like jumping from one to another due to circumstances of him running from someone, etc. where I personally would like to enjoy worldbuilding aspect little bit more.

Positives:
1. I really like "Wang Lin" (main character) character development through episodes (especially episode 10 and onwards), as he is just some random guy at start of anime who does not know a lot about world and cultivation and then eventually he learns how cruel world really is.
2. Power levels and scaling is easy to understand.
3. Animation is among better/best ones for chinese 3d anime.
4. Action scenes are interesting enough and main character also has cool abilities.
5. Girl who fails for main character is also done well from how she acts / her behavior to how she looks (spoiler: she is beatifull)
(she is only shown in few episodes for now, but they should come together at some point I expect)
6. As I understand same guy who wrote "A Will Eternal" wrote this peace of art and that is one of my top 10 anime, so I want to support this one also.
