Now I've spent more than six months getting to know and love danmei as a genre and MXTX as a writer. This left me much better able to appreciate SVSSS's merits and the anime-like tonal shifts were not nearly as jarring the second time through. Also the extended cast turned out to be a million times more vibrant once I became able to keep track of all the shidis and shixiongs. Still, I doubt I'll ever fall as deeply in love with this series as MXTX's later (and more polished) works.

I was with this book through many of the wonderfully heartfelt scenes in the holy mausoleum, and getting a developed backstory on Shen Jiu and Tianlang Jun was pretty satisfying. The climactic twist felt earned, if abrupt and underdeveloped.
But that NSFW scene and the resolution thereafter? I dunno. At this point we know full well that Shen QingQiu and Luo BingHe are an emotionally unhealthy pair whose miscommunications have led to a result that feels fated — and not in a good way — no matter what version of the story they’re in.
I know we were never going to get heartfelt love confessions from either of these two, but I worry for their future relationship, and I hope the fourth book allows for some healthier relationship growth.
Overall, this story is about breaking out of roles: the ones a system forces on us, the ones we endure because of circumstances or the choices of others that impact us, but — most importantly — the ones we force on ourselves. It’s also about learning how not to force those roles onto others. I do feel like the series ultimately addressed that topic well. I just wish the author had stuck the landing better.
