Hi All!

The King's Avatar was inspired surely by the novel with the same name yet gives of its very own vibe that can easily connect with the people nowadays. A lot would criticize primarily the in-game fight scenes as when compared to the donghua it clearly stripped a lot of the scenes yet it doesn't mean it ended up becoming mediocre. What the production team intended for the fight scenes, which is a form of in-game action that is can easily be referenced with games released and being played upon. Yet the very foundation of the game is the APM(Actions per minute) was still its core. Gamer's would be able to relate especially a similar concept is the Battle Mode in Ragnarok Online or Dota 2. If there someone who can relate to this, would be truly amaze on how key combinations to release a combo move. Yet there may be inconsistencies yet there is no such thing as a perfect show if so then there wouldn't be any show to be produce then.

Going back, now the characters they took note of behaviour of the characters from the donghua and novel and made it fitting on how they want live action to go which I definitely appreciated and had amaze/fun of their acting. Kudos to Huang Shao Tian! Truly an exact rendition of the character haha it made me cringe and laugh!

Now for the story, they still followed the flow but made a lot of cuts to get more story squeeze on this season but it didn't decrease the value of the show unless you made basis to the donghua and novel which follows a different metric. To the very story itself it made it fit on the setting it was based, and made it more or less feel it as how Chinese eSports industry is being treated which I was glad and was able to appreciate another side of Chinese culture.


All in all, watch this without comparing it to the donghua or novel. Watch it as itself and surely you'll learn to enjoy and even grow with the characters.
