This is a bit of a weird work to review. I enjoyed the animation and the story; the character designs are great, the animation and the fights feel fluid (though could be better), and it is enjoyable to watch. The basic plot of this story is: a youth arrives in Luoyang (capital) seeking to find answers regarding his teachers death, and is sucked into a conspiracy/political infighting. While the donghua introduces alot of ideas, cool gadgets and drops alot of hints (mystery element), it ultimately doesn't make use of them all, especially the gadgets. Overall, the plot is nice but relatively simple, the characters are likeable,resulting in a rather relaxing and enjoyable donghua.

This donghua is enjoyable, has some nice quirky and comedic moments. I recommend it if you like historical fantasy type of story.
