I love everything about the show EXCEPT THE LEAD ACTRESS and HER CHARACTER!! OMG it was excruciating watching a lead character be so dumb almost 70% of the show. I don’t know if it’s the actress’ portayal or the scriptwriter’s description of thr character but it was EXHAUSTING to tolerate. Everyone else was superb; the main actor even convinced me to be a fan. Even the bully fairy Danyin made me appreciate her - but the lead Orchid was excruciating to watch. Storyline was great. Everything else truly had the great combination for an exceptional Wuxia/ C-Drama but just the actress and character of Orchid. Maybe it was meant to be such but it trully lacked redeeming qualities. This review would have been a 5; and I understand the importance of the character to be an idiot but it was dragged out too long that it just destroyed the momentum of the story. Dongfang overcame his challenge with emotions seamlessly but Orchid STILL was an idiot up until season 20. UGH.

I am a recent fan of Chinese dramas and I couldn’t be happier that I watched Who Ruled The World first, then Ashes of Love. I fell in love with the characters of both series and it was a delight to see (most of) them reunited in Immortal Samsara. I got to see Mosha Star, Red Feather Clan, Si Feng, Jinmi, Little Fox, Little Snake, Heavenly Emperor, Elderly Wolf and everybody else. The drama was as heart-tugging and endearing as all the previous dramas I watched. Great job everyone and looking forward to more shows in the future.
