Magnificent job narrowing the focus of the story down to these two players, who really do control the board. For all that the world turned against Wei Wuxian & made him their scapegoat, he really was just another of Jin Guanyao's victims. And we may not have even known Nie Huaisang was ON the board until the final move, but man, he played us all. 😂

Most parts of the video are with Jin Guangyao and Nie Huaisang. The two masterminds, who played sort of game of thrones, one used others to be higher, the second one resurrected an old friend to solve his brother's murder... Amazing character development on Huaisang's side!!!

oh my god??? how is this video a fully cited essay about nhs and jgy just in the space of one song, omfg- so well done!!!!

ah this is so good especially the focus on the blood on nie huaisang's hands at the end

I love that the "loaded gun" lines are JGY playing music and LXC with his sword respectively. This whole video is so well done!

I love everything about this, but I'm so fixated on the little hand motion syncing up with the drum beat at 1:00 and the flute tapping on the coffin at 2:47. I love that kind of stuff lol. This whole video is very well done :)

God, this is so painful. I keep feeling things about different sections. On this rewatch it's that one second of Nie Huaisang and Lan Xichen sitting on the steps of Guanyin Temple right before "If history is dead and gone" - because they were close once! And now that's.... broken, probably? ;_;

I need you to know I've been watching this on repeat for, like, almost the entirety of the last hour and something new hits me from it every single time. This is amazing.

Breathtaking! Beautiful! Fantastic! You made an impact on my heart with this gorgeous storyline. I never blamed nie huisang. They are all living their own lives and stories with struggle.

This is just gorgeous--*such* a great analysis of the collateral damage caused by NHS and his schemes; and the pain of it for him, too. Everything getting broken. SO good.

NIE HUAISANG YOU ABSOLUTE GOD.

OKAY I HAVE TO SAY THIS. I'd seen gifs and pics of The Untamed on my Tumblr feed and was mildly interested but *THIS!* THIS VIDEO RIGHT HERE is the reason I actually started watching the show! Spoilers shmoilers, this absolutely EPIC VIDEO with its exquisite timing and compelling clip choices bumped CQL from "huh this looks interesting" to "MUST QUEUE UP NETFLIX IMMEDIATELY" I am not joking. This video is ART.

This is so amazing! You timed everything so well and it made me feel so many feels! And at 3:01 it honestly sounds like "my god" is actually "er-ge..." and it's PERFECT

HOLY SHIT. This was SO GOOD. I had so many feelings. I haven't spent a lot of time thinking about 3zun, but now I'm gonna!

Amazing. All the emotions shown through the eyes...

So I saw this as a rec on dreamwidth, watched it on AO3 originally, and then had to come over here to make sure I gave it a like bc I am blown away! I very much enjoyed your "thinky thoughts" in the authors note... editing a theme when things are implied or happening off screen is such a challenge, and you did an amazing job of it!

WOW THIS IS INCREDIBLE IM SPEECHLESS

This video is masterpiece..❤❤❤ love the untamed..

This is incredible - I physically cannot stop watching it! it’s the perfect song choice and your editing is insanely good.

Oof. This is the good shit right here.

I don't know how I missed this but this is AMAZING!!

UGH. THIS VIDEO IS THE BEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN. I NEED TO TAKE A NAP IT'S SO GOOD. But oh man, way to put all my feelings of "ahahaha wow, jgy and nhs being my two faves is kinda painful" into one epic video!

THIS IS SERIOUSLY SO AMAZING HOLY SHIT

this is so good!

This is such a cool video! Such great choices of scenes for certain lyrics.
