I thought this was just going to be a light drama that I would watch when I was bored but ended being the most emotional and heart wrecking drama I have watched so far. With each persona, I could feel exactly what they are feeling. This show made me want to smash my TV as well as hug it and never let it go. Yes it is long (63 episodes) but every 46 minutes an episode was worth it. Not only have the creators and cast of this show made the hours I wasted on this show worthwhile but ended the series perfectly which is surprising since I am always disappointed in endings. This show will make any normal person cry countless times. (Unlike me) I sincerely hope they make a second series. I will be a fan of this show for life. This is a show that you binge watch every year and stay up till crazy times to watch it. The cast did an excellent job and made me fall in love with ancient China all over again. Even though this show was made up XuFeng & JinMi will hold a place in my heart for eternity. This show had captured every type of love there is. Not only romantic love but mother love, sibling love, and friendship love. It also showed us that not every love story is not destined and some will forever be written in time. My favorite Character would be Xu Feng

I wasn't sure that I would like this drama, but after committing myself to seriously sitting down and watching it, I was hooked. I love Deng Lun and Yang Zi, what chemistry! Their steadfast love for each other stood the test of time, death, interference and love triangles. The lead actors were the best and the supporting actors were impressive too. This series is addictive; you will watch it again and again. Kudos to everyone associated with production. What a super wonderful series!

My initial thoughts when I saw this on Netflix I wasn't too sure if I'd like it. After the first few episodes I still wasn't hooked, but I'm so glad I stuck with it. It has twists and turns I never expected and it got serious later on (I don't want to spoil it). The love triangles are excellently played, the acting is incredible. I'm so in love with this drama! Hands down the best Chinese drama I've ever seen and the best drama I've seen so far. I finished 63 one hour episodes in 4 days and left me wanting, yearning for more. I looked up the songs after and found out they were sang by the lead actor and actress. Not only can they sing beautifully, their on screen romance is heart breaking but so heartfelt. I couldn't believe the details they added to the story and how it was all tied up at the end (I wish I saw the marriage fox god in the last episode but hoping he will be in the second season. I ended up rewatching the last 2 episodes 3 times! Please give it a go if you aren't sure, you won't regret it. The 40-63 episodes were so heart/tear jerking. Looking forward to another season even though the leads are just guests in it.

Honestly I'm not really into C-drama, but this one really caught my attention, and I was lucky cause it turn out to be amazing, worth watching and I just can't get enough even weeks after watching the final ep, the fever won't go down.

The OTP chemistry on and off screen really drawn me to this story. same age and they're good friends in real life. 😍😊

I've only started watching Chinese fantasy TV series recently and I got immediately hooked up. This is not my first one but definitely one of the best in terms of scenery, costumes, CGI, virtual effects, kung-fu fighting and obviously, impeccable acting!

When I started watching the first few episodes, I thought this was going to be a very light comedy. I did not expect it to turn into an odyssey. The journey is incredible and I advise you all not to read any spoilers because the many unexpected events made the story truly amazing.

I didn't know any of the actors apart from Yunxi Luo whom I've seen in another TV series named "The Screen Foxes". There are probably four leading characters: Jin Mi, Phoenix, Fish Fairy (Run Yu) and the Demon Princess. However, you also have the leading villains who did an incredible outstanding job as well: The Queen, the girl leader of the Bird Tribe, the evil demon who wants to take over the 6 realms and the graceful Mutsu:the demon princess's fiance (I apologies if I don't know their names but they are not available in the IMDB database). Overall, every single actor did a spectacular job, as a matter of fact, I still have to find a Chinese fantasy TV series where the acting is not convincing.

I am very impressed by how Jin Mi, Phoenix and Fish Fairy can switch their moods to turn from completely lovable and peaceful to extremely enraged assassins or totally broken-hearted. The way they manage to show feelings and vulnerability is so realistic that at times I found myself crying like a baby.

If you are not afraid of exploring the barriers of human consciousness to explore new territories of fantasy where romance, magic, kung fu and the mystery of life converge, don't miss out on Ashes of Love
