Guardian re-watch (ep. 22 & 23)
Mar. 28th, 2019 09:29 pmNobly suffering Shen Wei when he's doing whatever is necessary to get Zhao Yunlan healed should be held up as a shining example of heroic woobieness... then times it by a factor of 1000 when he realises that there is no way ZYL is keeping his eyes at the price of someone else's pain.
I still thoroughly approve of the scene in the SID office when ZYL gets his healing. I am finding more things to notice on the repeat viewing, though. There is symmetry in the anonymous email providing the info on how to fix ZYL coming from the first 'victim' that ZYL saves with the Black Cloaked Envoy. Also, what was up with SW's hand holding the Longevity Dial? Was the Dial fighting being released?
In the next episode we get the long-suffering Dixing bar owner again. He deserves a cookie for putting up with ZYL again. It does give us one of Shen Wei's most epic 'why do I have to deal with these infants' faces when he watches Zhao Yunlan and Da Qing with the bar owner.
Back in Zhao Yunlan's apartment, what is the energy field he is seeing when Shen Wei is preparing dinner?
I hadn't noticed it on first viewing but before ZYL freaks out when he sees Shen Wei's wrist he asks SW if he woke up and was still hungry (according to the subtitles). Curious to know what happened in the span of time in between. *g*
Da Qing was adorable in both episodes, as well. I approve of him being a good Deputy Chief and giving Little Guo time off to visit the graves of his parents. He cares about his subordinates too, just like ZYL.
