NOTE: The official YouTube channel does not have subtitles and blocked Fruitylads's posts. Try Google. Also, these episodes average 25 minutes with a staggering 5.5 minutes of opening/closing credits!
ACTING/CAST: The ENTIRE cast are all very HOT! You will see a scene where Lu Bai does Cosplay; I am at a loss for words to explain how amazing he looks. There's so much good chemistry here, especially between Xiao Mo and Lu Bai. The cast are young and inexperienced, and it shows.
MUSIC: I like the main theme and the credits and there's some good background music, like the haunting piano melody when something bad is happening.
REWATCH VALUE: Yes. Already have. I simply love the story and concept even if all the BL was cut out of it.
OVERALL: I love fantasy but wish there was more focus on a bromance instead of just fan service. Watch the prequel movies too.

Don't waste your time. Most of the episodes are just kids going to college. You'll go 3 or 4 episodes with almost no mention of the fantasy side or seeing any fan service.
The only thing about this show is there's two or three attractive actors. THAT'S IT. You could easily watch anything else and get more fan service, less rape, less offensive stereotypes, and better production quality.

Story: There is some thinly veiled, fairy foxes enter the human world pretending to be college students and bad stuff happens 'cause humans and fairy foxes don't mix. It was boring, with romance, supposed BL (Boy's Love), and fantasy thrown together with newbie actors, a shitty plot, and lots of eye candy. It wasn't a good mix if you're looking for quality. I only completed it since I was looking for the supposed BL to find none aside from two incidents in episode 1 and 2. That's it. If you're looking for BL this isn't it. There is no satisfaction in the ending either since it's abrupt and terribly scripted.
Acting: As everyone in the cast's first roles, as expected; it was bad. Xiao Mo is a hopeless protagonist, and he never develops at all. There's nothing there for you to want to support him with aside from "he's a cute lost puppy!", and that gets boring after episode 3. Rongrong was annoying, unsupportive and treats everyone like dirt. And she's suppose to be the protagonist's sister.
Side characters Chen Ruyue (Xia Wei Yu), and Gu han (Zhou Heng Yuan) and Shen Yan (Wang Yan Bin) actually develop more as people then the protagonist and his sister. Ruyue for how annoying she acts due to Rongrong being a shitty friend, actually sticks to her guns and is stable. Gu Han, for as much as you'll hate him by default, develops well as his character suggests, and you might even feel sorry for him in the end. Shen Yan doesn't do much but serve as eye-candy and friend but his acting was solid enough.
Now Lu Bai and Lu Yin (Kong Qi Li) acting; these two were the saving grace for acting and I am looking forward to their future's. Due to their roles as protagonists, they actually develop and flesh out as characters in a (mostly) relatable way. You see marked development in character, even though the physical interactions are somewhat awkward. Lu Bai's awkward smile is endearing, even though awkward. Lu Yin's character doesn't allow for too much bromance, but his voice and concern express it well.
There's annoying long intro and exit scenes (4 minutes of credits with no next episode preiews?!), and the music was unremarkable.I rarely re-watch dramas, but I wouldn't touch this one again with a 10-foot pole. A combo of inexperienced actors, a terrible script, mis-marketing for BL lovers, and no plot; not a drama I recommend. There's loads of other Fairy Fox dramas out their, spend your time on those not this.

The script and the acting is really bad, the filming and editing was poor, but that's what made this experience great! I was really confused under the entire series and all the guys had the same hairdo! But it was great! Worth watching if you're into movies and shows like "The Room" . This was pure.

well there is a lot to say about this drama, this drama though tagged a bl drama does not actually shows any moments of romance or flirtation between the main characters can you believe it, until the episode ten the main characters rarely even talk to each other, let alone to show any love interest making me wonder where is the bl i was promised. the whole directing of this series was so bad effecting the whole thing, creating the bad filming and actors showing inappropriate reactions at the scenes, combined with really nonsense story, making the story more cringe-able. At Ep fifteen i was wondering shall i drop it or not but still hope for it getting better at the next seven episodes kept me going but when i got to episode twenty i was happy it was coming to an end since it was getting worst and worst and what as with the ending, it was the peak for the whole weirdness surrounding the last episodes. All by all it was not worth my time and the internet balance i used to watch it but what i can say in the end is that you have to decide on your own to watch it or not.

Le problème ne résulte pas dans l'histoire mais dans la manière dont le film a été construit.
Je vais commencer par les reproches: effets spéciaux assez nazes...
Malheureusement, on a dû mal à croire à l'histoire tant il y a des moments vraiment invraisemblables.
Il y a également certains moments où les dialogues ou jeux d'acteurs n'ont pas leur place.
Les personnages?
Fée renard: Et bien on a affaire à une fée renard qui manque parfois de punch. Mais on va dire qu'il arrive quand même à nous interpeller... Il a un certain charme, mais semble trop "timide" pour quelqu'un qui a vécu si longtemps...
Puis on a Xiao Jing Chen qui passe d'un grand général beau, fort , ayant le sens du sacrifice à une vie où il est un petit bigleu , assez stupide qui se fait mal mener par sa soeur. Personnellement, rien que ça me dérange! On est censé retrouver la même symbiose entre le "couple" d'amis , mais il n'est pas là...
Ce personnage m'a mis mal à l'aise.
La soeur: elle, elle est agaçante au possible... Sa voix , ses gestuelles.
Mais alors pourquoi ma note n'est-elle pas si mauvaise?
Parce que l'histoire en vaut vraiment la peine... On a envie de savoir ce qui lie vraiment Xiao Jing Chen à la fée renard. On a envie de poursuivre également pour les moments "feedback".
Bref, soit il y aura une suite avec meilleur budget et pourront vraiment faire un truc qui en vaut la peine, soit on va se contenter des séries qu'ils ont fait après et qui racontent leur vie antérieur (soit dit en passant ça semble mieux).
S'ils font une vraie suite (non leur vie antirieure) je serai tout de même tentée de le regarder.
Par contre: ça n'est pas un BL! C'est plus une Bromance...

Nice concept, better exicution needed
Lets get all the bad things out of the way first... They literally played of attempted rape like it was a bad cup of tea, and just tossed the entire situation down the drain. This was seriously upsetting to me, he would have been beaten till that blond came out his hair. Something so serious should never be played off like that. The acting was borderline horrific, Gu Han and whosoever was supposed to be possessing him had one of the most cringe worthy evil laughs that I have ever heard. Not to mention that baritone voice cliché with evil characters... Please eh, Next!! Most of the actors had literally the same hair style which honestly had me mixing them up sometimes. Xiao Mo didn't need that "make over" in my opinion and that over touchy gay boy cliché that was prancing around violating every male's character personal space was not cool at all, it was so random and pointless, not even a comic relief. Their acting was fairly (being polite) alright but honestly some of them have no depth to their emotion and tears doesn't equal to emotions. The entire first episode was filled with bad acting and semi fantastic fight scenes which came back to hunt us in later episodes. Did I mention that I still waiting for the BL portion of this series? because there isn't any... This is a bromance at best, but since some of it seem a little rushed, their relationship isn't all that clear. The ending was laughable but not in a good way. I mean like seriously, don't bully my feelings, don't bully my feelings. Steups.However, them boys be fine as the magic from heaven. Lu Bai can literally wear anything and he is a sight for sore eyes. There was practically no fan service but I still felt like just having him on screen was enough. Xiao Mo had such a relatable cuteness to him that just made me want to hug him. Now that I got that out of the way, lets get into the story. I loved the fantasy elements of this show. Some magic, some hidden societies, some pointless humans and foxes cannot live together. Though they seem to be able to do such just fine throughout the entire series. The back stories of their original meeting was a bit unrealistic, but still nice to watch. It was pretty cute to have them all on screen together, at least the music worked in favour of the scenes they were assigned to, which helped since some of the scenes were a little lost and underdeveloped. Best you just watch for the eye candy.

Bromance
Situando essa série historicamente, ela é de 2017, o ano em que o mundo voltou os olhos para as histórias BL tailandesas, que até então eram vistas por uma bolha. A China, apesar da censura, aproveitou um pouco desse hype. Reparem que nessa série não existem beijos nem carinho entre os protagonistas, caracterizando um bromance, mas fica claro com as palavras e ações em diversos momentos a natureza romântica do sentimento entre eles.Vou falar sobre o roteiro: não é bom nem ruim, consegue um equilíbrio entre as duas faces. A produção teve muitas coisas negativas, efeitos especiais muito ruins, pontas soltas na história. A qualidade de imagem não é boa (não sei se é a imagem disponibilizada aqui), e a abertura é muito grande, e pra variar, cheia de spoillers. Não pesquisei a fundo, mas tenho a impressão que muitas cenas foram cortadas, algumas coisas me pareceram um pouco sem lógica e deve ser por que os cortes prejudicaram a continuidade.
Não sabemos o que aconteceu com a esposa do Xiao Mo que morreu, nem mesmo quando ele estava vivo e acompanhado o tempo inteiro por Lu Bai. O final deveria mostrar todos os personagens do núcleo principal, mas não sabemos o que houve com o irmão de Lu Bai (e a tribo inteira dele), não sabemos o que houve com o amigo que sempre estava junto de Xio Mo e sua irmã. O final entre os protagonistas está aberto, não se sabe se é real, uma visão, imaginação, lembrança. Sem falar que os atores que interpretam Xiao Mo na adolescência e na vida adulta não tem nenhuma similaridade.
Já critiquei bastante, agora quero parabenizar a escolha do elenco, que apesar de jovem, fez um ótimo trabalho. Todos eles se encaixaram perfeitamente em seus personagens e tiveram uma ótima química em conjunto. As locações e a fotografia da série são bem bonitas, e a ost é linda.
No geral recomendo a série, achei que foram desnecessários 23 eps, muita coisa foi arrastada e poderia ser resumida sem prejuízo, mas gostei de rever.

What a disappointment!!!
One of the first things I noticed was the makeup on the actors. Generally, the makeup was gaudy, and sometimes, it was so over-the-top that it leaves you wondering whether the show was attempting a parody or something. Anyway, it was completely lacking in taste.The acting *sigh*. Aside from a few characters, most of the cast had major problems. Most of them have zero control of their expressions which makes them look fake and very awkward. Gu Han/Xiao Jinghan's evil laugh was the worst when it came to acting, it was truly terrible.
The scenes that were supposed to be very emotional were very bland especially because of the poor acting and they left you feeling impatient. I don't know if it was because of the acting, those scenes seemed very long to me and I couldn't wait for them to end.
The characterization was a major problem for me. Lu Bai was completely lacking in depth which made him very boring and superfluous. He was just an awkward character that appeared all over the place because he was supposed to. The rest aren't any better.
The fight scenes....., the horse riding scenes......., I don't even know where to begin.
Finally, there is zero romance or even hints of it. There aren't any lingering looks, there aren't any touching scenes. We know that this was supposed to be BL because Rongrong shipped the CPs. It is because the relationships and even friendships are not properly developed that the story fails to draw an emotional response except disappointment.

Awful
I made it through 9 episodes. Couldn't make it any farther. I thought it was some student production, but it was worse than any student project I've seen. No fantasy value, no BL value, icky stereotypes, strange interiors, some odd costuming choices, looks like they tried to use security camera footage.Esta resenha foi útil para você?
