Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils 2013

Post by auroragb » Dec 24th, '13, 23:02

Just started watching Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils 2013. OMG! It's so TERRIBLE!! :cussing: I just had to rant. The story changes really change the character dynamics. Minor spoilers as it discusses contents of first 6 eps
They changed the meeting of Zhong Ling and Duan Yu to forest meetup ala Zhang Wu Ji meeting Ying Li of Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre. WHY?!!! What's wrong with the ceiling beam meetup of the original? It showcases Zhong Ling's personality much more clearly?

They changed the Mu Wuan Qing's facemask removal from intentional to accidental. WHY?!!! The intentional removal shows Mu's resolve much more clearly than impulse suicide. I guess they want to copy the DongFang BuBai's ending from the movie :rolleyes:
Character:
Duan Yu's personality was changed in a minor but important way.
Original: Stuffy bookworm who believes in the power of the brush over sword, his lack of practical knowledge caused him to make the decisions he
New: Bumbling idiot who cannot keep his mouth shut.

DG&SD was originally a triple lead book. But the nominal protagonist was always Duan Yu. Now the lead is definitely Qiao Feng. Because of this, they can't cast a real man for it, Zhong Han Liang is way too soft for Qiao Feng
