The X-Family

[Jilly]

Ah, you read my mind, kidd ^^ I didn't put much thought into my post, but here you put it just perfectly


Some connections between KO One and The X-Family:

1. Lei Ke Si and Xia Yu hold grudges toward Da Dong (over An Qi) and Xia Tian (being the keeper of Feng Long Ka). They both turn into evil because of this jealousy.

2. Wang Ya Se and Lan King Wang hate Da Dong and Xia Tian from the start, but later they become (best) friends.

3. Sha Jie and Xia Mei constantly 'torture' Jin Bao San (verbal abuse) and Ren Chen Wen (electrocution).

[kidd]

Han is like An Qi in KO One. All the guys also like her.

And Sha Jie/Xia Mei always no one loves except Jin Bao Shan/Ren Chen Wen.

I hope Lan Ling Wang will like Xia Mei at the end.

Why the scriptwriter left out Lei Ke Si from the Gold Dimension segment? He should be included. He's Da Dong's BFF leh. Also, doesn't Xiu need them to recover power to fight evil? Lei Ke Si and Tian Hong Guang are KO2 and KO1. Why not recruit them as well?

2. Wang Ya Se and Lan King Wang hate Da Dong and Xia Tian from the start, but later they become (best) friends.

Hate is too strong a word. Lan Ling Wang doesn't hate Xia Tian. He's just following orders. Ya Se also doesn't hate Da Dong. He just wants to challenge Da Dong's position as the leader of the class.

I haven't finished watching the series. I just skipped around to the parts I want to see. Will watch the series properly later.

Just curious. Have Gui Long, Gui Feng and Gui Wa ever did anything really bad? The only things I see them did when they appear are:

Gui Long
- drink milk
- act arrogant and rude
- hold open-air concert
- make people have pregnancy symptoms for 3 days (by product of his kissing)

Gui Wa
- scare people

Gui Feng
- act arrogant
- admire himself
- sleep
- watch TV
- heat up the house (I don't think he means any real harm. He just wants to make the Xia family release him)

I really like what Gui Feng did at the end. I wonder if Gui Long also considers the Xia Family his family.

I used the word hate as generalization. If you think hate is too strong a word, then fine, I'll replace it with "dislike" coz Ya Se doesn't just want to challenge Da Dong at first, he really dislikes him

I haven't finished watching the series. I just skipped around to the parts I want to see. Will watch the series properly later.

Just curious. Have Gui Long, Gui Feng and Gui Wa ever did anything really bad? The only things I see them did when they appear are:

I can't remember if any of them does anything specifically destructive to their dimension/universe. Gui Wa and Gui Feng are harmless alter egos. Gui Wa and Xia Mei actually look more like best friends to me. Xia Mei can summon Gui Wa whenever she wants, and Gui Wa will obediently listen to her "master". The narcissist Gei Feng is less agreeable, but other than heating up the house, he doesn't do much damage. Gui Long is something else. He is not as cunning as Lao Zhang Men, but he's evil in his own way. He's a very strong and dominant alter ego. He even wants to destroy Xia Tian because he doesn't want to be suppressed by him. But when facing a common enemy, Zack, he's willing to cooperate with Xia Tian. I don't know but I'm just fascinated with this bipolar characters Xia Tian/Gui Long =P

Some comment and question.

Comment: Fight between Xia Tian and gang vs Fire Ambassador

click to show/hide spoilers

Xia Tian so bad. After the fight, Xia Tian woke up and went to check on Yan Wu and Lan Ling Wang. After that, he ran straight to the back to check on Han, passing by Xia Yu who was still lying on the ground. He didn't even stop for 1 moment to check whether his big brother was ok or not. What's with that? So 重色輕兄 lah.

Question (about the passing of the elements)

click to show/hide spoilers

So, after the 5 elements originators pass their elements to Xia Tian, they all lost their powers? How come they all still go and fight the Fire Ambassador with Xia Tian with no power?
Who is maintaining the energy of Iron Dimension after Yan Wu lost his powers?
At the end, is only Xia Tian the only one to go to Gold Dimension to transfer power to Da Dong?
So, Gui Feng also lost all his powers? Big sacrifice leh, given that every time he comes out, he receives hostile treatment from everyone around him.

Question (Gui Long, Gui Feng, Gui Wa)

click to show/hide spoilers

What are they exactly?
- Another soul residing in Xia Tian, Xia Yu and Xia Mei's body?
- the dark side of the siblings that get seperated out from their good side (like Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde)?
- Multiple personality disorder (like Shen Xing Zhe/Qiang Ling Wang)?

How can Xia Yu come back out after he let Gui Feng take over his body? The 'bin qi lin' only works once since Gui Feng already know the trick, he won't voluntarily say the activation keyword if he doesn't want to go back. So, Xia Yu has a deal with him liao?

Question (Xia Yu and Gu Feng)

click to show/hide spoilers

We know after the stint of absorbing people's power, Xia Yu has been turn back into Ma Gua. But after Gui Feng appear, does Xia Yu has any power of his own? I mean, if he lock Gui Feng out with the Feng Long Card, can he still use 'yi neng'?

You're just picking on him lah. If he didn't check on Han, people will say he doesn't really love her. If he passed Lan Ling Wang and went straight to Xia Yu, he'll also get blamed for devaluating his friendship. Whatever he does is just wrong

I don't think the 5 elements originators completely lose their powers after passing their elements to Xia Tian. Even after the final battle with the Fire Ambassador, I still don't think that they lose their powers like Da Dong, Ya Se, Xiao Yu et al did when fighting Hei Long in KO One. Otherwise, how can Xia Tian play Tie Ke Wu Ji ("na ge"/the guitar) to open the dimension portal to save his mom? And how can Xia Tian transfer his power to Da Dong? If they all really do retain their powers, then Jiu Wu should still be the one maintaining the energy of Iron Dimension.

I'm pretty sure Xia Tian, Lan Ling Wang, and Jiu Wu will all go to Gold Dimensions to save their alternate counterparts. If Xia Tian is the only one needed, then why would Xiu look for Ya Se's and Xiao Yu's counterparts as well?

I'd say Gui Long, Gui Feng, and Gui Wa are the "evil" souls residing within Xia Tian, Xia Yu, and Xia Mei. They are the products of their dad's Ye He Na La evil bloodline.

Hmm, I think he only needs to say the activation keyword once. It should lock Gui Feng as long as Xia Yu puts on the necklace.

Question (Xia Yu and Gu Feng)

We know after the stint of absorbing people's power, Xia Yu has been turn back into Ma Gua. But after Gui Feng appear, does Xia Yu has any power of his own? I mean, if he lock Gui Feng out with the Feng Long Card, can he still use 'yi neng'?

click to show/hide spoilers

Do you mean Feng Long Tie instead of Feng Long Ka? Feng Long Ka is Gui Long's pick that contains info about power-users. Feng Long Tie is the patch to suppress uncontrollable/unstable power. When Xia Yu turns into Gui Feng, he has his own power, just like Gui Long and Gui Wa. Technically speaking, Feng Long Tie should be enough to suppress Gui Feng the way it does to Gui Long and Gui Wa, but Gui Feng is so powerful that not even Feng Long Tie can control him completely. A more potent Bing Gu Zhou is used to seal his power instead. If Xia Yu puts on this Bing Gu Zhou necklace, he then cannot use his yi neng (it cools off his fire).

And you are too blinded by your love for him and too eager to defend him that u totally mistaken my meaning . I never said he shouldn't go check on Han or Lan Ling Wang. But, he RAN PASS HIS OWN BROTHER to check on his girlfriend. I don't mind him checking on Jiu Wu and Lan Ling Wang first because they were nearer to him. But, when he ran pass Xia Yu, Xia Yu was just a few centimeters away from him. How hard is it for him to stoop down and check on his brother for a while. It ends up with Lan Ling Wang picking up Xia Yu after checking on Xiu while Xia Tian just kept on hugging Han. He went to check on his 2 friends and then ran pass his brother to check on his girlfriend, leaving his brother lying on the ground.
I don't hate him or anything. Why would I purposely pick on him?

1) I know they didn't all lost their power through fighting Fire Ambassador. So, I have no problem with Xia Tian still remaining as Zhong Ji Tie Ke Ren and saving his mom with his power and transfering power to Da Dong. This is not the part I'm confused with.
2) I think they lost their power is because after transfering power to Xia Tian, Jiu Wu has said more than once that he didn't have 'yi neng'. Xia Yu was also saying the same thing to Xia Mei when Xia Mei was blaming him for something. He said he didn't have 'yi neng' anymore. That's why I was wondering whether they still have power after transfering their elements.
3) Yes, all 3 conterparts are needed to the power transfer to Da Dong, Xiao Yu and Ya Se. But, it's not about needed or not needed. If Jiu Wu and Lan Ling Wang lost all their powers, they just can't go. It's just bad luck for Xiao Yu and Ya Se then. That's why I was asking whether it's only Xia Tian that was going. No because the others were not needed, but they just couldn't go. Secondly, only xia Tian was mentioned to be going to Gold Dimension. They never mentioned Lan Ling Wang or Jiu Wu.

Sorry. Yeah, I meant Feng Long Tie. Hmm, but, I remember later on, after practicing with Xiu, Xia Tian still have 'yi neng' after locking up Gui Long, right? Or I may be mistaken.

Aiyo, I'm not mistaken your meaning. I'm just teasing ya. Don't take it so seriously. I should have put smiley faces on my sentences. My bad And I'm not too blinded by his love, lol I just remember that you don't like Xia Tian's character coz you said he's wishy washy and all. Anyway, my thought on this scene is that since Han is the only girl around, she'll get extra care/attention when she gets hurt.

2) Yeah, this series is quite confusing, and I took a lot of assumptions to make it more understandable. When Jiu Wu and Xia Yu said that they didn't have yi neng, I took it as they didn't have their core elements anymore. They still have some powers left, but it's insignificant compared to their powerful core elements. I'm just guessing, though.

3) I think only Xia Tian was mentioned because he's Jong Ji Tie Ke Ren, the ultimate iron man, so it's more like a symbol. But again, this is just my assumption. I can be completely wrong, but since the series doesn't address it clearly, I took lots of liberties with my own imagination hehe.

So what's your theory?

I really don't know what to make of it. I guess you are right about them still having some powers. But if Jiu Wu can't even use Wu Feng (the gun), his power must be pretty low. But, in the other hand, he might just be saying this because the refuse to shoot his master.

From the last episode, I still think that only Tia Xian goes to Iron Dimension.

[kidd]

Start watching properly again starting from episode 15.

Haha, Xia Mei not bad. Can find out all the places Xia Yu keeps his money and even find out his ATM password. She might not be smart academically, but pretty smart in other areas.

Only the scriptwriter of Zhong Ji Yi Jia can think of such a thing. Nothing can stop Xia Yu except Xia Mei's threat of using up all his money.

And the cameraman and director scene. So hilarious.

[kidd]

Btw, is the Zhong Ji Yi Jie plan still on or is the idea scrap liao?

[Jilly]

Btw, is the Zhong Ji Yi Jie plan still on or is the idea scrap liao?

I have no idea. None of the lead actors are committed to filming anything remotely like Zhong Ji Yi Jie. Maybe the producers scrap the idea. Or maybe there's no plan to begin with... just fans wishing for sequels; hence the rumors.

[kidd]

I think there was actual plan to film it in the beginning, because in Baidu, u can see a magazine scan talking about it.

Okay, I found this on fahrenheit-globa1 forum:
"HIM and Fahrenheit has clarify that there is no such show as 终极一街( X-street) according to a thread in baidu"

So there really is no sequel

hi, just learned that Jiro Wang is one of the leads in this series? Is it any god so I could look for it... thanks

It depends on what kind of genre you like. Do you like fantasy genre? Do you like series that talks about special powers, the magical world, demons, magical doctors etc and have a silly kind of humor? Do you like series that are not romance centered? The X-Family is not like the usual idol drama where romance is the focus and where we follow the journey of the 2 main leads in their road to love and happiness. It's more anime like.

Some people (like me) like The X-Family and KO One a lot, but some can't get pass episode 2.

I've give a brief synopsis:
The X-Family is about a world where people with special powers and people with no powers co-exist, but people with special powers usually keep them a secret. The story centered on Xia Tian (Jiro) whose mother comes from the family of white magic while the father comes from the family of dark magic. Because of that, he has another entity inside his body (or maybe it's his evil self) which he can't control and need external help. The series is about his journey to control is power and become Zhong Ji Tie Ke Ren to prevent the Iron Dimension from being taken over by evil forces. This is the main plotline, but, inside has a lot of subplots and things happening. Quite a lot of touching moments in the series and some pretty funny and interesting characters. This is the sequal of KO One. Some characters (Da Dong, Xiao Yu, Ya Se, Duan Chang Ren) in KO One will make brief appearances in The X-Family on and off.

I can't give an unbias review either because I like this kind of genre and I'm a Calvin fan.

[tanteun]

Jilly,

are u kidding?? u know i'm Danson's fans so can't give unbias review hehe. But overall is interesting if u like the genre.
