My major complaints would probably include the portrayal of the formidable general Zhang Fei. Zhou Yu's portrayal, though not especially flattering, was conveyed well by Victor Huang, and made me want to give the poor guy a hug (at the risk of disembowelment). Lu Yi's Zhuge Liang is subtle, graceful, and dignified even in distress.not to mention terrific eye-candy. He has now become the representative Cao Cao in my mind - just devious and cunning enough, but not evil for the sake of being evil as he is sometimes portrayed.though at times of questionable mental stability. Chen caught me off-guard at first with his Cao Cao, but he's seriously grown on me. And finally, I enjoyed the acting and character interpretations. Moreover, it still sounded decently authentic to adequately serve its purpose. What would be the point? Rather, the writers decided to focus on making the dialogue engaging and meaningful to the target audience. If the producers and scriptwriters conformed to the way scholars of 200 AD spoke, like 8 people would understand. Perhaps it isn't as antiquated as it could have been, but let's be honest. First, the scenery is remarkably grand and beautiful (both natural and CG) - from Zhuge Liang's hut in the middle of a forest, to gratuitous (though appreciated) shots of the Yangtze River, to the rather intimidating sights of tens of thousands of little armored men rushing forward. It's been almost 3 decades since the last notable attempt at serializing Romance, and now with plenty of Yuan and manpower to throw around, the deed has been accomplished. It largely follows the novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms though it does deviate in some parts. A whopping 95 episodes, fast-paced and intricate in many parts. It was quite an ambitious undertaking, for one.
