Thx a lot, wuxiarocks!

LOCH is a nice surprise for me in 2017. Havent watched something like this for a long time. Has Ode to the Gallantry released an air date? Wuxin was good, I wonder whether the 2nd season will be okay too .

You're welcome, as always!

Regarding Ode, at this point, don't hold too much hope for it. I think it probably won't get released. It has been sitting in some locker. There's no big name star attached to attract broadcast stations.

With 2017 busy as is, more-so than 2016, Gallantry just has no chance in the market.

But who knows, it might sneak up somewhere online at some point.

EP47
EP48

It's been fun. What will be the next worthy series I wonder.

Thanks, wr. Yes, I agree that it has been fun. After DGSD2013, LOCH2017 is probably the best show now for me.
Let's see how the next HSDS goes.

Some thoughts/queries with regard to Ep 47 and 48:
1. Tuolei looks very handsome when his hair is bunned up. At first, I did not recognize him.
2. They should show the scene on how GJ capture the 1st and 2nd son of Genghis Khan.
3. Was the 3rd son introduced in the series? Afterall, he is next Khan after Genghis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongol_Empire
4. Is Shagu younger than HR? Because she kept calling the latter "Watermelon Elder Sister". If so, then Cheng Yaojia is even younger than HR since she acknowledged Shagu as "Elder Sister".

2.I was also disappointed that they did not show the scene how GJ captured Jochi and Chagadei - that would have been spectacular.

3.The third prince, Ogedei, was the short, balding chubby guy (who looks older than the 2nd prince) present during the meeting when GJ returns. The one who says that "Father sent emissaries to them, but half our emissaries were killed, the other half had their beards burned."

4.Sha Gu just calls her that because Huang Rong calls the shots. Sha Gu should be significantly older than Huang Rong - assuming Huang Rong is younger than Guo Jing (which is what the 3rd edition changes on Qu Lingfeng were made to establish). Qu Lingfeng is supposed to be already dead when Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian are arrested by Duan Tiande. If Sha Gu learnt her father's martial arts by watching him train, she should be at least 5 or 6 at the point of Qu Lingfeng's death.

Sounds logical, Ian. Thanks. But wait,
HR's mum died after she just gave birth to the former while copying the 9 Yin manual again. That's possibly a few days after HYS expelled all his disciples, including Qu. At that time, Qu is not married. So Shagu logically come after HR. Logical?

Thanks, wkeej! More explanations for me here.
3. Isnt he the Khan in ROCH era?

OT: Just checked. No, the Khan in ROCH is Mongke - the fourth Khan. He is the son of Tuolei, older brother to Kublai and nephew of the Second Khan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...#Mongol_Empire
Actually, though it is fictitious show-wise, it is quite "insulting" to depict Mongke to die in YG's hand. Perhaps, defeat and retreat is better.

Btw, does anyone know who buried YK in the 1st novel? And what was the sentence written in YK's grave? I checked the 2nd edition, and it was almost exactly like the 2017 version. But I thought that I read, a long time ago, that QCJ was the one who buried him and wrote some words on his tomb,"the grave of an unfaithful student, by the useless teacher QCJ" (or something like that, I forgot). Was the sentence in the grave like that in epi 47?

Thanks!

That's what he wrote in Episode 47, yes, which is why it prompted Ma Yu to ask him why he needed to feel so guilty about the whole thing. More like "Unfaithful son", though, in reference to how he didn't live up to the ideals of his father. The romantic thing is that Yang Guo will one day write a new tombstone for Yang Kang, and refer to himself as "by the unfaithful son, Yang Guo", because he would also be nothing like his father.

I did enjoyed his performance in LOCH 2017.

The way sha-gu mimicked OYK's limping was funny.
