I vaguely remember a thread about this series floating around here. But as I can't find it, I thought I might as well start another one. Also, this looks like a mainland production, but I could be wrong about where this thread belongs.
One of the official sites is below if you want to jog your memory about what this is:

So has anyone seen this series? Local channel 4 is doing a sort of marathon of the first 10 episodes today, and having nothing better to do, I got addicted to all the random fighting and CGI throwing the characters were engaging in.
Also, rather surprisingly, the characters are not irritating me. The noble and highly skilled main couple are nobly trudging their way to true love and peace for all of the WuLin. But they are doing it in a pretty unobstructive way as to not hamper my enjoyment of the rest of the series. The cute, bickering couple stay well on the side of endearing (mainly due to the guy more than the girl) instead of drifting into the shrill. The innocent, weepy girl seems truly innocent and victimized, as opposed to just pretending to be innocent. It's truly a testament to the character's effectiveness when I don't want to shake some sense into her. Also, her habit of following random guys around cracks me up.
And the bad guy is cute. Physically in the SXH pretty villian mode, but a bit grungier. Acts in the noble villian mode a la ZZZ in Book and Sword 2002, but a little more apt to lop your head off. Overall, possibly the deal breaker for this series.
Finally, does anyone know if this series has a Sina site? If so, how would I go about finding it? Thanks!
