I wasn't expecting much honestly, but it's surprisingly fun. Not as smooth as King's Avatar, but if you enjoyed that, you'd probably enjoy this too. The 3d cgi of the game's world bothers me a little, since I'm definitely more of a fan of 2D animation than 3D, but it's enjoyable enough anyway. admittedly the animation quality itself might not be as good as some others in the 8 tier, but I had a lot of fun watching, so it deserved higher than 7 Premise is that the MC is a college P.E. teacher who really love martial arts, super dedicated and passionate, but he strugglesgetting others interested in it in the current day and age. one of his initial students gets him into the game, binding him as a mage - and then he proceeds to do martial arts instead. shenanigans happen. ye xiu-brand chaos ensues. The characters are fairly fun - the interactions between the Elite Guild, as well as the MC and his ducklings/students are fairly amusing. I gotta say, Sword Ghost (jian gui) is probs my fave character - he's so cute and his va did *such* a good job. fair warning - the sub translations can be kind of iffy at times - most of the time, they do get the point across, albeit some nuances might be lost if you don't understand Chinese, but at some points they don't make that much sense, so keep that in mind All in all, this is a pretty decent donghua to binge, but don't really expect too-complex plot like bungou or the like update: just realized the original novel was also written by butterfly blue, which definitely explains why I kept getting king's avatar vibes
