The magic change is a bit exaggerated.
As a fantasy and suspense short drama, the overall quality is very outstanding. It is a sincere work worth watching in the near future. It has firmly captured the audience's attention with its novel setting and online interpretation. The overall experience can be given four stars. The core setting of the entire drama is very attractive, with "demon rental, wish trading, and conservation of price" as the core, breaking the clichéd plot of conventional short dramas. The series unfolds unit stories around each wish transaction, connecting the greed, regret, obsession and redemption of human nature. Behind the wishes of every little character, there is the helplessness and sadness of reality. The core core of making a wish comes true and having to pay the price in the end. It is full of dark and healing atmosphere and has profound intentions. It also triggers the audience to think deeply about desires and choices. The leading actors, Mingtao Mingtao and Jia Danmeng, are very eye-catching, and their acting skills are natural and delicate, perfectly supporting the rhythm of the whole drama. The two of them accurately grasped the character design, whether it is the emotional tension during the plot, or the delicate micro-expressions and line skills, they are all very online. The rivalry scenes are full of atmosphere, and the tacit cooperation makes the characters three-dimensional and vivid, getting rid of the common problems of awkward acting and drama in most short plays, allowing the audience to immerse themselves in the plot. At the same time, the rhythm of the series is relaxed and relaxed, the plot of the unit is compact and not procrastinating, the suspense is well laid out, and the service delivery and camera scheduling are above average in short dramas. Multiple foreshadowings are interspersed with foreshadowing, and the progressive plot pull makes the experience of watching the drama excellent. The early plot is high-energy and full of highlights, firmly affecting the audience's emotions. But the biggest shortcoming of the whole drama is that the ending is seriously bad, which is also the core reason for deducting one star. The grand world view, the mysterious demon setting, the character's past foreshadowing, and multiple emotional lines laid out in the early stages have not been fully concluded. The finale was too hasty and sloppy, and the whole process was passed by in one stroke. Many suspense were left unresolved and the foreshadowing was unfinished. The main plot ending ended in an anticlimactic manner. The final destination of the characters was unclear. The atmosphere and plot tension accumulated in the early stage collapsed instantly. All in all, this is a high-quality short drama that starts high and ends low. The plot, characters, and acting skills are all outstanding. Unfortunately, the ending is too perfunctory and wastes the wonderful foreshadowing in the early stage. If the ending can be polished carefully and the closed loop perfected, it will definitely be a perfect masterpiece. I look forward to the follow-up chapters to complete the extra chapters and perfect the ending.
