Hi! I've just binged the first season, and I'm shocked at how good the story is. It is so well balanced! I felt like I know the story yet everything comes as a surprise. A good one, no, the best! surprise, bcs lotr and asoiaf are my top favourite media, and this series is now next to it!
Could you, pleases, help me with couple.. of questions. No spoilers, pls. I read on the sub that the second season is not guaranteed, why is that? I haven't watched many Chinese shows, did they use the show as a single promotion? If there is a chance for season 2 what's the usual release rate for donghuas?
About the original media. Do I understand it right, there was a novel, which was adapted into comic book, and now animation? Which one would you recommend to read? I prefer text, does the novel have all the details? Does it come out first?
Does the original media hold up to the show? I saw poster pictures and they show witches as anime housemaid, I hate that vibe. I'm here for medieval story, is it the same in the book?
I also glanced the story isn't over. If there is no spoilers tea on the behind the scenes, please, spill (like g.r.r. martin would die before finishing the story type of gossip). I'd hate to love something and get my heart broken.
Kind regards, valeria
