Omg we're at Sinner's Pit. San Lang jumped down at the end. That means... that means... next ep is...!!!! I'm so excited.

I'm sad they left out the line from the novel where Xie Lian says "You (SL) come back here first. Come back here and I won't be scared."

I knew General Ke Mo was gonna be a big guy, didn't think he'd be THIS big though lol.

^ I forgot that Xie Lian say something like that to San Lang until u mention it =(

This is another good ep, i like how they make the buried head scene..
San Lang suddenly jump and Xie Lian's worried face...

I wonder how they will make one of iconic scene 'that scene' for next ep :D

I am hoping to see the "real deal" next week too, but for all we know they might leave it at another cliffhanger leading up to that moment, honestly.

I was kinda sure it would end the way it did.
Maybe that's also the reason they cut the episode short, to be able to stop at this cliffhanger.

This last scene was beautifully done, with the music and Xie Lian's desperation when San Lang jumped.
They are really doing a lot right with this adaptation. 😊

That cliffhanger!! Poor Xie Lian feeling so helpless as San Lang jumped off. Next week needs to hurry up come quick. I really need to start reading the novel.

I honestly think they did this scene better than Starember's version in the manhua, especially with the tongue ghost. My only gripe is that the language barrier between the Banyue soldiers and the common people isn't that obvious, but I suppose its for the best to avoid offending any specific cultures.

That part was not in the novel so it's totally up to the viewer's imagination as to what SL said! I thought that was a great touch by the donghua team.
Though I wonder if they will bring it up later :o

I was thinking the same thing about the language difference. I don't know Chinese, but it honestly just sounded like Chinese but with a different "accent", it would have been cool if they actually started speaking in a different language that sounded completely different.

Oh no I don't remember but now I wished they had added that small detail just to break our hearts a bit more :(

Someone had the speculation that he said "don't be scared" which would fit because I remember HC saying that several times in the novel


I liked this episode more than the last few, probably also because I literally don't remember anything of this arc from this point on, lol. Sinners pit just rang some bells but that's it.

The last scene was beautiful but I hoped they would make it a bit more dramatic animation wise. Not necessarily ep1 flashback quality but it was a bit whonky in my opinion.

Still, I have high expectations for the next episode because of you know who *wiggles eyebrows*

True, that could be a possible..although i hoped for a different response in my heart xD

I had exactly the same thoughts ! Moreover, the first ep flashback was spectacular (i have seen it at least 10 times already) because they didnt speak a word and we got all the feelings compared to the last scene now where even though they spoke the scene was too sudden and short that we couldnt feel much.

MUCH HYPE for the next episode >.<

This episode was like 15 minutes and it wasn’t even that good. The threat at the beginning immediately goes away and then they get captured by an entirely different threat. I’ve been waiting for this series to get good and it never does.

Book 1 (this season) is all foreshadowing. The hints of a plot are meant to give you blue balls, unless you're big brained enough to put together the puzzle pieces before they start spelling stuff out for you.

A really good TGCF theorist channel that I like to recommend for more concrete thinkers is Donghua Reviews. They're a first time watcher so they don't spoil anything, and serve as a great guide for people who have trouble picking up all the hidden meanings in everything that is shown this season.

Boy this one was short. I wonder if they needed extra budget seeing as they added an ad(?) at the very end.
These new guys really remind me of Orcs from Warcraft 3, the way they speak also is similar.

I really enjoy that we've yet to find goal in this series and that it's foreshadowing for now. This is much sweeter in mystery genres where the MC don't even know what they are looking for at first. MXTX is really fine with putting clues all over the place. Makes me realise how many times I needed to read/watch some parts of MDZS to finally grab hold on some stuff.

this, i've still seen some people complained & really expecting everything got explained in one go, saying the character interaction or their motive & how they behave doesnt make sense. Some people really dont have patience and its show. Its ALL gonna make sense when we dived more into the story, why those character behave the way they do, their interaction, expression & small detail etc it's all have meaning. Just like others already explained season 1 only cover up book 1 which is more like introduction.

I never imagined the Banyue's soldiers to be so giant and hella strong. But it makes sense, I mean, in the novel it's mentioned they're 3 meters tall and were very ferocious in battle.
