I love the different feel this show is giving me compared to the dramas I'm used to. I also can't get enough of Lei Wujie having the best time of his life, Wuxin being sassy every now and again, and Xiao Se just done with the situation he found himself in.

[@wafarerinjapan]

This just sold me on given it a watch! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@wwhaha]

Omg yes! I've started watching Blood of youth recently and it is the best drama i have watched since 2021. It has everythingi'm looking for in a wuxia drama🔥🔥

[@milanibanal8329]

Agree, i particulRly liked the fighting scenes. So much talent poured into those scenes! the casting is perfect... i can feel wuxin warmth, wujin's energy, xiao se's masked indifference.

[@meganleffingwell3437]

I got so excited when I saw that Ty posted a video!

[@Veeelinnn]

Blood of youth was definitely one of my favorites in a long time!! It feels fresh, dynamic and heartfelt (and yes, so beautiful).

[@unniqq]

Great review, I loved the drama too. I felt that the background music is a bit distracting

[@TytheCanasian]

Noted!!!

[@KarinaShah-iv5sn]

Is this bl or not or (bromance) plz reply

[@VastDrama]

Super agree with you! Been watching a lot of dramas and movies so I'm finding something unique out of all the currently airing dramas. What took me to watch Blood of Youth was because of a clip where it contains that golden coffin and that Wuxin haha. So yeah I watched the 1st episode, right then I just realized this is the drama I've been looking for for so long! I don't usually watch ongoing dramas but I can't just wait for the drama to end then watch so I patiently wait every day for the episode. Totally unique and highly recommended! Overall, I loved your reaction video!

[@TytheCanasian]

Thank you!

[@OlivesD]

Just started this drama at your suggestion and so far it's pretty good! I'm in the middle of episode three, and the three main characters are adorable fools.

[@TytheCanasian]

Keep goingggggg

[@OlivesD]

@@TytheCanasian episode 8, officially obsessed. 🤣 This drama is just too good.

[@liewkaisun6850]

This is one of the most rivetting n intriguing dramas after Nirvana in Fire.....no run of the mill stuff....every episode is highly entertaining, the action scenes are well choreographed, the acting by the entire cast is excellent especially the four male lead actors....the storyline is well mapped out even though it involves so many characters from so many sects in the pugilistic world....no confusion...there is no unnecessary padding to prolong each episode like many other dramas ...just into the first three episodes you get the feel that this IS IT.....the Blockbuster of the year......watch it....be entertained...👍

[@popkitlum8415]

I loved this drama- it definitely did fill all of my Wuxia desires. It also had lead actors who were not big names- so it didn’t distract from the story. The was romance, but not in your face sappy stuff- but definitely some sad story lines. My favorite character was Tang Lian played by Li XinZe. (I can’t fully bring myself to discuss his story…)

[@el8960]

I also "stumbled" into this series. About the same way I stumbled into Battle Through the Heavens. Glad to hear it's worth my time. I've been trying to binge a lot of shows to pick up basic story structure. And I'm about tapped-out on weak girls with flimsy voices, the "clenched fist", falling backwards off a cliff so we can watch the character fade into clouds, and endless romantic cliches. There definitely is a formula for Western-style storytelling, but I think Asian storytelling is so rich in art, traditional values and childhood trauma affecting later behavior. By the way, I'm typing as I'm listening to you and yeah, I agree with you on the moral values. Now I'm looking forward to watching more of this series. I'll be on the lookout for Jar Jar Binks, tho. Thx for the review.

[@FairyThale41]

I already watched it twice. As expected Liu Xue Yi as Wuxin nailed it👍👍👍

[@silvadagates6945]

Nice review, I love this wuxia movies because some reason. They grow stronger together, they didn't have instant power. And the level of power; immortal, deity, etc. And important think is the plot and their character.

[@TytheCanasian]

Yeah!

[@inessa2282]

Loved your review! I was convinced to watch it 😆

[@TytheCanasian]

YAY!

[@mzkariah11]

I love it, watching until episode 28 and i am very curious about the latest traitor who sided with lord chi and i think it's one of the five powerful eunuch, Worth watching u won't regret

[@lululucyzhu]

Oh my goodness I love this video already (still on ads)😂

[@TytheCanasian]

XDDD

[@tristanegail]

Just finished few days ago. Give score 9,5/10 to this drama.

[@bransonchic678]

I like this drama cuz it reminds me of final fantasy lol. I like the chemistry between the three male leads and it isn't super focused on romance lol

[@lilixie5061]

I finished the drama and now I will try to finish the novel

[@stefankurniawan2566]

Just Finished the series.. And felt a lil sad that i finished it cause im craving for more.. Hahaha.. Really the best series i watched so far.. There's some scene i wish it is not skipped or shortened but overall this is one series that's totally worth to watch..

[@Rafm1236]

Ty for the review

[@TytheCanasian]

You're most welcome

[@bluesound666]

I like the drama, but the chemistry between the male and female lead is not really that good but it doesn't ruin story. I hope there would be season 2.

[@chanwoo324]

Please come back with a final review…I’m on episode 36 and I’m so bummed it’s ending 😭🙈!

[@TytheCanasian]

i finished it!!!! Final review coming soon!

[@chanwoo324]

@@TytheCanasian looking forward to it 🤗

[@bunnyfreakz]

It feels like watching classic Wuxia and anime at the same time.

[@TytheCanasian]

For sure!

[@duckraft]

Love your videos but fyi the bgm is distracting. Nice to see you again.

[@TytheCanasian]

Noted! Thanks!

[@peachblossomgoddess2644]

Nice review. The political plot is very similar to Nirvana in Fire.

[@TytheCanasian]

:O Nirvana in Fire I heard is also a very good one

[@schusu3127]

I'm waiting anime season3.. but this drama coming.. its good on its own way..

[@thomaswood7030]

Hell.yeh.this.is.one.of.the.great One❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@heyitisari]

I honestly, think this drama is the best. I haven't seen such a good drama in long time. I watched the drama first and went back to animation....tbh I can't watch it...

[@sgsakura25]

I saw the animation a few weeks before this air.

[@deemee009]

OMGGGG your still posting? Why has my algorithm shown me nothing XD

[@Rlktimeline]

I was only impressed with Wu xin. Overall I had give 6/10 It's similar to ancient detective and comes with vibes of Listening snow tower. Li hong Yi was the same as in queen Lau and that was kinda stiff.

[@silvadagates6945]

at first I was thinking like you, but after I watch couple episode, it's just his character 'xiao se' and i have enjoy to watch their character and I want to know what happen next.

[@Bella-lj3cv]

I’ve watched 12episodes and I still can’t figure out what’s going on and why. I like all the actors, but what is the goal of this group of people?

[@silvadagates6945]

@@Bella-lj3cv until 12 ep xiao se has 3 goal = get the money, go to xeuye city with lei wujie "help lei wujie become their decipline" and invetigate more about his uncle cast. Lei wujie want to meet li haiyi (2# master of xueye city) and become her decipline. Tang lian just go back to xueye city after he finish the task (gold coffin). Sikong go home (her father was 3# master xueye city). Futhermore next episodes (until 34ep) about 3 prince, their strugle inherit the throne. The group will help xiao se to get his safety, help xiao se get cure, and get the throne.

我感觉那些外国人不懂用豆瓣，甚至不知道，有些粗制滥造的片子在豆瓣都是低分被喷，不管是书，影视剧，音乐都是这样，很奇怪，我甚至看到他们就看网文和耽美文。。或者是余华的活着，呃前者是不入流的，没人称它们为文学，后者时隔太久，现代也有作家啊阎连科阿城等等，外国人知道茅盾奖吗？

[@王小明-u1i]

不只是豆瓣，很多国内的网站比如b站酷狗知乎也是，我想是vpn的原因？

[@TytheCanasian]

说实话，您不说我也不知道哈哈哈。我想就是文化差异吧。外国人主要看的是自己喜欢不喜欢，不管他是差评还是好评，最主要就是看个人喜好。可能国内的人就比较看重评分吧。

I really thought he is Cheng yi

[@TytheCanasian]

Same!!!

[@lululucyzhu]

How dare you call Xiao Se lazy

[@TytheCanasian]

Is he not????

[@flowerlearning]

He's not, he's just cool

[@RatchatawanVibes]

I really recommend this!!! Yeahhhh 10/10 don’t you guys miss it🫡🤭👍
