The Untamed is objectively better than Guardian by many (most) metrics! Better effects, tighter plotting, it suffered much less under the censors, etc. (The definitive exception for me is the acting. There is a lot of very good acting in The Untamed, but Bai Yu was great and Zhu Yilong was spectacular in Guardian. I will die on this hill!) But Guardian captured me almost from the start, and by ep 13 I was rolling around on the floor going, "I love this show!" I never, ever had a moment like that with The Untamed. ^_^;
It' so nice to know I'm not the only one who felt that way about Trapped. ^_^; Also, *looks around* If there's a competency kink, Meng Shaofei hit the anti-competency anti-kink for me, particularly in the first few episodes. THERE I SAID IT. *breathes a sigh of relief* Thank you for letting me get that off my chest.
Selfishly, I'm glad to know that you, like me, are still invested in Guardian. I can't wait to see what else you write!
