I'm watching Till the End of the Moon

[feotakahari]

This is only the second "cultivator" series I've watched/read, so I don't know if this is a trend or just a coincidence. But in both this show and that book about the god of trash collecting, there's this expectation that the common person will never, ever self-sacrifice. Any time the unnamed masses are in a position where they risk negative consequences, they will shamelessly do anything to escape, whether that means pleading for help, running away, or making sure other people get hurt in their place. They can be nice or helpful, but only when they don't stand to lose anything.

By the end of the trash collector book, I wanted the whole setting to collapse into the underworld. Let's see how I end up feeling about this show.
