The Flame’s Daughter 烈火如歌 aired its series finale tonight to end the 52-episode run that began on March 1st. The drama has been gaining attention since its premiere, which was quite evident in the steady rise in online viewership. The show easily hit 100 million views in the first 18 hours of its release in China and has accumulated over 5 billion views as of this week, making it the first Youku web drama of 2018 to hit the milestone number.
It seems like a cause for celebration overall and I took a peek at the comments section to find that people seem generally satisfied with the ending. What did you think? Did your favorite otp end up together? I bet Vin Zhang ended up alone, it seems to be a standard for all of his dramas ?.

As usual Bin Bin never gets the girl. Hoping to see him get the girl for his next drama. Writers, don't they feel sorry for him, my god give him a break and let him be happy in the end.

Wanted to watch this for Vic Zhou but parts of him looked less graceful than what I imagined…now that it's over I'll go skim around blogs and see what they think before I take the final plunge!

I like the drama. I love the ending… Yen Xue and Ru Ge and those beautiful flower petals.

I think it’s pretty clear that Dilreba is less competent than the supporting actresses in here. She’s very lucky with Yang Mi backing her and her fans think she’s hot or whatever. She lacks the acting talent.

Very happy at the ending – won't spoil. A lot of people having been complaining about the styling and make up etc of Yun Xie – I think he's the most captivating character of the series! Hated Bin Bin here, that jade like earring on his ear was horrific and so fake. Eugh.

I think Dilreba did a great job for a newbie like her. Yang Mi did a great job on polishing her. You can't compare Reba 4 years acting to Yang Mi's 15 years acting experience. Now Yang Mi is already considered a veteran actress. If you watch Yang Mi's old dramas when she is just a newbie it same to Reba. Just wait the more Reba does dramas she will shine like Yang Mi. For those who say's she lacks of acting do you see yourself act better than her?

Vic and Reba did a great job as well all those cast. For those who ship Zhang BinBin with Reba on this drama I think he don't deserve her more than Yin Xue 🙂

I'm happy to see Reba doing good, Yang Mi did a great job on raising a star. She just started a main lead role in 2016 in the drama Hot Girl. In just year 2017 she already starred 3 dramas as main lead more dramas in the future. I'm looking forward to your upcoming drama Sweet Dreams and Three Lives, Three Worlds, The Pillow Book.

for me reba is not a newbie…maybe she will improve…but i'm feel something missing…actually yang mi also is not a good actress…yes they can act…but their acting pretty much boring…sory for the yang mi reba fans…either they will get better or not..just wait and see…

Did you mean that this was the first WEBDRAMA of 2018 to reach 5 billion views? Because there have been a few dramas this year to pass 5 billion views already. Mr. Right has over 15 billion and The Negotiators over 10 billion.

Estou assistindo esse drama e adorando,apesar de achar cinquenta capitulos ,muito demorado mas eu gosto

Youku refers to there dramas as 超级剧集 which is what the article I read states. I interpret it as web drama too. Thanks for catching that, let me add it in to be clear.

That is amusing. The same criticism was being thrown at Yang Mi before.
Anne J
Yes, exactly! Actually, I liked him since F4 and thought he would look great in ancient garb. He does look good, but awkward and less graceful than imagined. Pretty much what you said:) I am also on the fence, am curious to see whether you take the plunge or not.

I completely agree – Don't understand the hype. Boring, indeed.

The chemistry between Dilireba and Zhang Bin Bin for me is still matchless. So fabulous or shall I say sizzling hot! I'm dying to see them in a drama with a happy ending. Not loosing hope and will continue to dream on that happy ending until I die ha ha ha ha. I'm so happy that no one has kissed Dilireba like Bin Bin wooooooohhhh!!!!

I strongly believe if Reba play a good ass supporting role she can get as much love as a main leading actress. Why do actors want a leading role more? —well, supporting roles these days are really dumb too, totally useless people who only exist for the sake of either slaving or hating the main character and not people who live for their own selves.
I don't think Reba match being the main beauty that every single men would go to war for her love, and, it is such an annoying trope too. Like, I don't find Sun Li beautiful in Nothing Gold but she got a very special personality that made sense why every men fell for her. For Reba, she is not that pretty nor is her character special, and in every drama the men fight because of her…like I just don't get why? She's not annoying or anything, but she's only like the friendly girl everyone can befriend. She's so nice to the point that she never look like she'd ever try to seduce anyone, yall know how sometimes the Mary Sues can purposely be mean and hold on to the second lead guy's hand to request something with seductive eyes, if yall know what I mean… but for Reba doesn't even do that ever, she's always just a pure pure pure friend, and the guys… fell for her without her even trying at all. Not even a misunderstood hint was dropped by her too, they just like her bc…it's Reba. She is seriously plain, and has no magic.
But anyway, at least she isn't annoying yet. A lot of times when actress try to jump to a role being naughty, it can be a very terrible failure and more dangerous than playing the mature safe roles.

So happy for my girl Dilraba and the rest of the cast 🙂 Can't wait for Reba's next drama! I love her acting and her personality. And she's just soooooo beautiful!

I really enjoy the ending and anyone saying reba not pretty needs to reevaluate that word then. She one of the prettiest actress in cdrama to me. Her acting is improving every drama she has been in. She just needs more time build the depth.

Dilraba has lots of potential, she's pretty decent but my favourite character of hers was Bai Fengjiu in Eternal Love. Really good chemistry with Vengo Gao.

Vic Zhou is Vic Zhou. I just love him and I totally ship Yin Xue and Ru Ge <3 <3 <3. I don't get why people keep on posting hate comments when they don't even watched or completed the show. Anyways, currently listening to their OST's and my feeeeeels are all over the place.
