Watch the Donghua first
if i could go back id read the novel first, then this, then live-action, then donghua
Don't watch untamed - ur welcome
Better read books or even start tracking manga adaptation
Anything is better than this live action bs
lol dont watch the live action, its cringe af and leave a lot of important stuffs. imo, for new fans go for manhua -> donghua -> novel. i said this because not everyone enjoy reading Novel since its words heavy.
:( wait I like the live action tho. It's like a fun story and visuals are rly nice
Good for u if u enjoy the live action. Ofc the actors are good looking, but they cant be on par with the visuals i imagine them from the donghua and novel arts. I'm a fan of LWJ since 2018, and i always see him as very tall masculine beauty guy and very ethereal, and seeing the live action kinda disappoint me and i cringe while watching the first episode and i stop there.
Tbh at first I thought the same and never got past first few episodes, but recently I started again and once I got past ep 5 I couldn't stop watching. Wang yibo, the actor playing LWJ did such an incredible job throughout the whole drama, he's very good at nuanced and subtle expressions and body languages so even if he doesn't speak his eyes speak thousand words, I feel he really got to the core of the character and after finishing the drama I couldn't think of anyone else playing Lan Zhan better than him, I hope one day you can also give the drama another chance, first few episodes are difficult to get into indeed but once you get past that, the acting and chemistry is incredible.
no sorry i did give it a try a few times, and once with my sister who loves the live action but i just cant keep going, its too cringe and kinda dont meet my expectation. imo, fantasy should remain fantasy i guess. i would love a 3D version rather than live action. However if you are cant be bothered and love everything, go and watch the live action. if a lot of fans love it, that means its well done.
so before more people replying about how great and awesome the live action is, its not my taste. BUT I UNDERSTAND that it's well made and a lot of fans love it. If you are fine with live action, go and watch it. However, I do not recommend watching it before you read the manga because it left a lot of important stuffs, and the original story from MXTX. watch the live action after you read the whole story, live action is only a cherry on top if you want variety of MDZS.
Guys should i read this first or watch the show untamed?
