As Someone who has read the entire Novel of Wu Dong Qian Kun, I can honestly say the reason I even STARTED to read the 1300+ chapter Novel in the first place was because of these 2 anime seasons which made me realize how amazing some Chinese stories can actually be! Ling dong starts as weak and frail individual but slowly becomes an extraordinary existence later on when it is all said and done, and the things he goes through makes you want to cheer for him with all your might! After the end of the 2nd Season I could not wait for season 3 and Itook a chance on reading my first ever Chinese novel and it did not disappoint! I HAVE NEVER READ ANY ASIAN NOVEL BEFORE ! Now back to reviewing the anime adaptation, when it comes to comparing it to the novel I would say the anime leaves some things left on the table but still does it's best to cram in as much as it can into those 22 min episodes, and to estimate the first 2 seasons cover about the first 200 chapters in the novel. Meaning every 100 chapters = 12 eps so that means there will need to be 13 seasons to cover the whole story ..... The fighting and art/animation are really good and well done for a Chinese anime. I hope they do come out with a season 3 soon. The fan subs are lacking and it was hard to find some quality translation subbed ones online. Very good story I highly recommend watching this! and reading the Novel!

Martial Universe S2 Review Martial Universe Season 2 is a proper beginning to the series with Lin Dong joining with his Master in Yan City and undergoing the annual Tower Battle. Visitors battle against Yan City disciples to reach the highest floor of the 8 floor Pagoda Tower summoned by the Yan City Mental Power Master. All the while, the Lin family battle against remnants of their past enemies in Yan City while Lin Dong struggles to solve the mystery of the hidden room in the Pagoda Tower. After these altercations are settled, Qin Tan's ice traumas have relapsed and put her in a comatose statewhich forces Lin Dong to attend the Main Lin Family venture into the Nirvana Level Tomb in the Tianyan Mountains. It is in this tomb where Lin Dong finally gains some traction in powers while also making enemies of the Main Lin Family and Wang Family which come to bite him in the back after he leaves the Tomb. Story: 6/10 Unlike other cultivation donghua, Martial Universe is overtly different in the sense that it doesn't take a million episodes for Lin Dong to explore the world. Many series like God of Ten Thousand Realms take a while to develop because the MC stays dwelling in the academy for so long which is a powerful weak point of many cultivation donghua. However, it still follows other series where MC finds a powerful treasure from ancient times that can boost their strength in a few years or the annual exam that benchmarks the MCs hidden powers. Martial Universe doesn't bring anything new to the table in terms of genius plot development but it still has entertainment value. Art & Sound: 6/10 The art isn't too bad, I don't find Lin Dong attractive as a main character. HIs lashes are overextended into his peripheral vision, his short hair and edgy character design make it a bit hard sticking to the series. In the manhua, he looked more edgy and kid-like but I didn't think his character design would stick even in S2. The animations are pretty decent, you can still tell that the characters other than MC are unnaturally rigged. Sound design is ok, I didn't particularly have any interest in sound design of Martial Universe. Character: 7/10 Like all cultivation donghua, the director expects us to have knowledge of cultivation levels and Seal symbol master levels. Lin Dong progresses fairly far in this season from what I believe is early Yuan Dan to Peak Yuan Dan and Seal Symbol Master Rank 2 to Seal Symbol Master Rank 3. The Tower Battle progresses his Mental fortitude and the Tomb venture progresses his cultivation base. We also get to see the Lin family affairs back together after being targeted multiple times in the early part of the season. In terms of character development, these arcs are proof that Lin Dong's journey is beginning. All that's next is the Lin Family tournament which I presume comes next season where Lin Dong gets underestimated again and again and again. Overall: 6/10 Nothing important happens in this season apart from Lin Dong discovering the hidden room and 2 ancestral tombs that will boost his powers in time for the Lin family tournament (I suspect).

This is a continuation of the review I wrote for the first season: https://myanimelist.net/reviews.php?id=584934 I will only add that the animation got a little better, and the plot –while still lacking a clear direction (other than the formulaic tropes of the cultivation genre which is basically "MC powers-up, again, again, again")– starts taking form and expanding the lore. It's honestly just a quantitative improvement, as in "more of the same". But it works. So, if you kind of liked the first season, you'll most likely like this one too, probably a little more. My recommendation is to watch at least the first 3 seasons before you decide if dropping ornot.
