King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table should be considered a relatively high status in British local mythology. It seems that they are at least at the level of Liaozhai in my country, right?
In fact, this change is also relatively big, especially the relationship between the characters. Niwei has changed from Merlin's favorite student to a priestess. The illegitimate child of King Arthur and Morgana has completely become a child with little relationship. The queen who caused the war changed from a princess to a princess. The appearance of a maid has also decreased. . .
But I think the screenwriter has injected some other ideas into it, turning the original nobles into commoners, and King Arthur was endowed with more humanistic colors by him. As a children's drama, it may be a piece of mind for those who are accustomed to thinking with logical thinking, especially the Chinese do not have too many ideas of obedience or monarchy, and even think that Merlin is absurd as a servant with just one sentence of destiny. The characters in the play have IQs. It also fluctuates up and down. For example, as King Uther, he doesn't trust the highly respected imperial doctor but trusts others. It's a shame that I think he is more in line with the Chinese imperial powers at other times.
A maid Gwen or servant Merlin also deserves the full maintenance of the prince and princess, of course, because they are the protagonists and humanistic thoughts.
This show made me realize that the adaptation can be a little bolder, a little more presumptuous, and tell an old story with a new perspective. It can be edited well.
