slow burn
I think there's a lot of overhype behind this drama. it's a little slow and dragged out. The story is decent but I find that it would be hard to binge watch this show cause some episodes are pretty pointless.I think the hype is around the actors and visuals more than the actual story itself. the show does visually present well, with all the fights scenes and scenaries of the worlds.
The title character has these internal monologues that I find quite annoying at times as she's constantly doing it in every scene instead of talking to the male lead. She's also presented as being very brave and confrontational as she's always ready to fight. it's OK to be brave but her cockiness is quite irritating.
Overall there's not much drawing attention other than the look of the show.

The replaced actors fell short
I love JOF very much and I am glad I waited long enough to watch the first season. This season started out a little slow and the vibe was off, but it picked up by episode 4.I love Fan Xian, Old Wang and second prince. I like that I know the characters well enough to know what they can and can't do. Like I could tell the second prince was innocent of certain crimes, just cause I know he isn't that sloppy and obvious 😁. The crown prince was a crazy in the first season so even though I am only on episode 7 and just found out he framed the second prince, I was not surprised cause I knew he was guilty and still evil the moment he told Fan Xian about the burned village.
As for the new actors, Ye Ling Er and Yan Bing Yun's characters are different not just as cast but their roles had particular personalities which do not translate well in this season. Yan Bing Yun was very robot like in season 1. He portrayed an injured man that was paranoid but very patriotic. He was emotionless and somewhat arrogant. This new Yan Bing Yun even flinched at his father yelling at him 🙄. Ye Ling Er isn't any different , she was brazen and tomboyish in the first season.
what happend to Lang Tao? The guy is acting friendly in this season. He was scary in season 1 and not talkative.
Overall the story itself is going well so I hope the ending won't disappoint.

Princes and Princesses are too old for these roles
It's obvious the roles for the young royals should have gone to younger actors.Princess Wu has not even had her coming of age ceremony which means she's around 14 years old. The actress is a 40 year old acting like a little girl, even the mannerisms are weird and exaggerated.
Thes rest if actors and actresses are also supposed to be at most 25 years old but they all look older.
As for the story, it's too long and drawn out. A lot of extended story telling that is completely unnecessary.
Overall the production quality is top notch.
