Rants and Weekly Raves (RAWR) #464


Anne: Whats up Drama Lovers! Hope everybody had a superb week final week and, not less than, caught some attention-grabbing dramas. I’ve spent the final week binging watching a few exhibits to the top! (I’ve a endurance downside with exhibits. I hate ready.) As well as, I’ve began my subsequent “home” challenge. Listed here are the bits and items which can be at present accomplished.

A lot of the prep work for the “stuff” are completed, and I am beginning to put collectively the precise body for the home. Now…if I can solely make this in actual life! (In truth, I do not know why I even need like a courtyard with vegetation/flowers and water options, since I am allergic to pollen and I unintentionally kill residing fauna.) 

Okay…sufficient of my hobbies exterior of my work…let’s wrap up my drama viewing of the week.


Blossoms in Adversity

I began this a bit of over per week in the past, and swept proper by way of all of the episodes, which was a complete of 40 in beneath 10 days. Sure, there was some FFing. My over all impression. I LOVE it! It’s totally cute, very candy, and all of the supporting characters made this present. It jogs my memory like Love just like the Galaxy, besides the emperor in Blossom is an A-HOLE of the best order…okay, I ought to make clear that and say the complete royal household, except for the sixth prince. Like Galaxy, that is largely a household drama, however for my part, this one gave much more growth to the supporting characters. It is a very giant solid, with simply the FL’s household numbers to grandparents, 4 uncles, 4 aunts, and not less than 3 concubines (?) and I misplaced depend of the nieces and nephews, to not point out the feminine private servants to the ladies.  

The story is about Hua Zhi and the way she carried her household by way of the turbulence of occasions that engulfed her household when the emperor took exception to her grandfather’s criticism and accused them of colluding with the enemy. All the lads, over 10 years outdated, had been exiled to the north to work at some mining camp, and the ladies had been kicked out of their residence. Now, the one purpose why the ladies did not get bought was as a result of Hua Zhi’s grandmother was a detailed childhood buddy of the dowager empress. And even the emperor want to offer some leeway to the dowager. 

Now…to be clear, this whole story and all of the “stuff” that occurs is because of an emperor who needed full and whole loyalty from everybody and every little thing. It is a ruler with virtually no compassion, to the purpose that he “threw” away his youngest son as a result of he wasn’t what the emperor imagines a royal prince to be. There was just one particular person whom the emperor liked like a son, his nephew, the son of his brother who tried to overthrow the throne lengthy earlier than the drama started, Gu Yan Xi. For our ML, he regarded the emperor as his father, nearer than his personal father had ever been to him. Understanding this dynamic is the one means the viewers can perceive the issues that Yan Xi did for his uncle. 

The cutest couple is Shen Huan, the youthful brother of Hua Zhi’s ex-finance (Shen Qi) and Shao Yao, Yan Xi’s youthful sister. These two are the cutest. That total scene when Shao Yao stabbed Shen Huan repeatedly with the needle was a spotlight of the hate/love relationship between the 2. 

There are such a lot of aspect tales that I can’t cowl all of them. And every couple’s story and every “marriage” was distinctive and entertaining in their very own means. I actually like this tales, the place the plot strikes into completely different instructions with the supporting characters. There is not actually any very kissy scenes, they had been all very G rated. However they had been so cute! A contented ending for nearly everybody. So delighted!


Woman Revenger Returns from the Fireplace

I began this as a result of I acknowledged the ML within the poster. With solely 4 episodes watched, I do like the place this drama goes. I hope they will sustain the tempo. Now, this story of revenge (rebirth) has an analogous face switching factor as In Blossom. The primary distinction (moreover the plot and characters, and so on) is the Woman Revenger defined how this complete face switching factor was attainable, and made an try to elucidate how one lady grew to become the opposite. 

The story is about Luo Ai Lian who, by way of her “second” mom, one half sister, and her second uncle, was “killed” to ensure that them to take over her household’s enterprise. In her escape, after affected by 2nd diploma burns on her face and neck, she was rescued by Shen Zi Shan. At this medical “residence”, Shen Zi Shan has her ailing sister whom he was attempting to remedy. Nevertheless, the physician tells him that his sister can longer be saved and the one means was to transplant the beating coronary heart from one other lady. Effectively…his sister dies, and with the intention to stop his father from dying of heartache, he determined (together with the physician) to switch Shen Dan Qing’s face on to Luo Ai Lian. This served two functions, protecting his sister “alive” and likewise to cover the actual identification of Luo Ai Lian. 

This story setup is not with out its flaws, however not less than in her “rebirth” she acquire some new talents that made her authentic kind stronger, bodily. Now, I do not now how a lot martial arts that one can be taught from scratch…so I am simply going to imagine that she was a quick learner and really decided. I imply, she even discovered to “draw” like Shen Dan Qing.

With solely 4 episodes, we’ve not actually seen an excessive amount of of the ML and a lot of the story remains to be targeted on the FL’s revenge plan, which is not actually a lot of a plan but. It is largely her taking no matter alternatives she will be able to. Xu Cheng Feng is a common who retains operating into her. I am trying ahead to how this story will develop.


That is a lot of the it for this week. The one different present I’ve completed was Unknown. I am glad that the story had a superb ending, with everybody getting their coronary heart’s want. And the household unit expands. The opposite present I have been watching (this one with my husband) is the Netflix sequence Killing Eve. There ware at present 4 seasons, and we have solely gotten by way of 2 of them. The story is sort of attention-grabbing…a couple of bored operative with a fascination for feminine assassins, and the feminine assassins who fell in love with the lady who’s attempting to “catch” her. Season 1 ended with the operative stabbing the murderer and the second season ends with the murderer shotting the operative. It isn’t a wholesome relationship by any means 😉. This is to wishing everybody discover one thing attention-grabbing to look at within the coming week!
