I started watching this drama because it was loosely based on Inuyasha. I really love Inuyasha's story. I had read the entire manga and watched a big part of the anime. So, where to start. The story is very good. Very much like Inyasha. It has it's funny moments, and moments to bring tears to the eyes. The only thing I can point out, is the pace. But then again, this is a chinese drama and the pace is exactly like other chinese dramas. Even though, it kept me always glued to the screen. The actores are great! Even though some outfits were hilarious (and some were just beautiful), the leads were really great. I especially loved Jiang Yi (Wu Dao) and Chung Gillian (Ding Yao / Xian Yue) performance. Gillian played her 2 characters amazingly! Really honored Kikyou and Kagome. I totally feel in love with the theme music and the ending music. I found myself trying to sing it and play it in the guitar. As to re-watch. I probably wouldn't watch it all over again, but I will probably re-watch some of my favorite scenes sometimes. As to other things to point out in this drama, I can only say that the special effects are not very good. But I think you can see past them when you get into the story. At a point you don't even care anymore. Already looks natural. I won't make any spoilers (for that you can go ahead to the last episode and see my review there) so I'll just say that the ending could have been better. Why? Well probably because the director meant for it to have a sequel (and I really hope there is one, or at least a movie). Even so, I recommend it, especially if you are a big Inuyasha fan that would give anything to see something similar. Then this drama is for you. =D
