SQUEE! I finally got a copy of Da Ren Wu in my hands.

Yay, wuxia!

Just look at this OTP vid:



What's not to love? Angst! Evil assassins! Damaged hero and fun heroine! Happy ending! Political intrigue! Finding true love in an arranged marriage! Nic Tse! Did I mention angst?

I love the whole premise, of the spoiled and spunky heroine who has read too many wuxia stories and dreams of meeting up her wuxia idol but is instead betrothed/wed to a studious guy she despised since childhood. Only...surprise! Her husband might be better than the shadowy hero of her wuxia readings...

SQUEE.

Also, the first ten minutes are LOLtastic. I love the spoiled but awesome heroine.
