Lü Shu is a frail teenager with an iron will. After losing his parents, he enrolls in a prestigious high school while working for a living and looking after his adoptive sister, Lü Xiaoyu. However, Lü Shu's quiet life abruptly changes when a car accident awakens his latent cultivation superpowers. Now cured of his physical weakness, he decides to hide his newfound abilities, as the art of cultivation is still shrouded in mystery—and the fate of cultivators uncertain.
Meanwhile, Tian Luo Di Wang, the international foundation responsible for monitoring the cultivators, sets its plans in motion. Under the impetus of their member Xi Fei, a special cultivation training group is established in Lü Shu's high school. Although Lü Shu is forced to join the program, he is determined to hide the nature of his fearsome power, for his cultivation draws from an unlimited resource: the negative emotions of others brought about by his actions.

So, this is my first review so bear with me. This is actually a really good anime. My only problem was the shitty subs but i guess cant help it. So the story is about a teenager that gets great power suddenly and tries to hide it. From what i felt, it is mostly a comedy type anime with the main character doing his best to rile people up and being a greedy bastard xD. So yeah this was very nice to watch, was looking forward to it every week. Also the Opening is sooo good, i didnt skip it once in all the 12 episodes, the endingis good too but the opening is top tier

Granted, the opening was phenomenal but does the show overall stand up to it? Well... I would say NO. This anime is probably the biggest scam happened to me in 2021. "Expectations were like fine pottery. The harder you held them, the more likely they were to crack." ~ Brandon Sanderson. Expectations are a huge factor when it comes to entertainment which may or may not move in the direction one expects it to and sometimes severely affect the experience of a viewer. It is an attribute of humans and not something we can just switch on and off whenever we wish to. The difference in aperson's judgement between a mediocre show with high acclamation and a well-written show with poor popularity can be quite large. That being said, Da Wang Rao Ming is the donghua (similar to anime but made in China) adaptation of the novel "Spare me, great lord" that got negatively hit due to the factor of expectations rooted from it's eye candy opening.
STORY
You may find difficulty in following the story if you are not a Mandarin speaker since the English subtitles provided were hard to follow. The story revolves around an orphan named Lu Shu who only retains a walnut shaped pendant from his parent. When he gets into a truck accident, his pendant manages to save him, while bestowing him the distress point system in the process. He has an adoptive sister, Lu Xiaoyu who ran away from the orphanage to live with Lu Shu, when he turned 16. Lu Shu has attempted to send her back multiple times, so she could have a better chance at life, yet she always escapes and returns to his home. The basic premise of the story is quite simple, a brother and sister trying their best to live their lives their best up until many people start to awaken abilities which became a turning point in their lives. An organisation called Heavenly Network starts to recruit students who awakened these abilities and trains them to enhance their super powers and one of them being Lu Shu. The power system was confusing and they did not provide a proper explanation on the star systems.
CHARACTERS
Majority of the characters in this donghua lack any sort of depth, no backstories, painful struggles or clear goals, in short they are bland/boring and easily forgettable. The protagonist Lu Shu gains points for his gacha system through negative emotions by annoying/angering people. While the way in which he annoys and collects points from people is pretty entertaining to watch, Lu Shu's growth feels so sudden, without any struggles that this can also be called lazy writing. Even after 12 episodes Lu Shu remains as the same person, the same annoying brat who don't give a fuck about anyone else other than his sister in the first episode, that is zero character development. The chemistry between Lu Shu and Lu Xiaoyu, two poor orphan siblings unrelated by blood supporting each other as they move on was a nice touch. All the side characters lack depth and are just present as tools for Lu Shu to accumulate his points and provide an explanation for his sudden growth. How come Lu Shu is able to master in martial arts so quickly? The answer is the old man Li Xianyi. A scapegoat for his ability awakening? The answer is Liu Li who also serves as the stereotypical bully of the class. Jiang Shuyi is the big brain of the class who provides answer to various questions that arises as the story moves forward but no explanation is given or hinted whatsoever on his source for this immense knowledge on highly secret affairs. Then we have the two teachers, the serious Xifei and the funny Li Yixiao, both just exist in the world with others as tools of interaction with Lu Shu but lacks depth and any sort of personal characteristics. This donghua would have been a lot better if they focused more into the side character's lives, show their daily struggles, their pasts, motivations and goals clearly rather than almost always showing it from Lu Shu's perspective.
COMEDY AND ANIMATION
Comedy is by far the greatest aspect of this donghua aside from it's opening. Comedy is just too dominant that sometimes it even undermines potential dramatic moments. Even though there were a lot of comedic moments, I couldn't enjoy it at it's finest the main culprit being the incompetent subtitles provided and I don't think Tencent would release an official english subs anytime soon. Due to failure of the subtitles to present the dialogues in a comprehendible manner, many potential jokes just went over my head. The opening and ending were both top-notch and successful from a marketing point of view but the difference in animation quality between the opening and the show itself is quite large. The motion is disjointed and unfluent as most of the typical donghua.
CONCLUSION
This anime was not enjoyable for me mainly due to my high expectations for it rooted from it's opening and the confusing subtitles. The comedy was great at times and the animation is tolerable if you are familiar with Chinese donghua animations.
Dragonnext
Anime opening is best of Chinese animation, but it doesn't even represent reality, that animation still is not good it is decent compared to some, but op caused me to give it much more expectation. I personally like song at the beginning and ending, i like use of BGM (Background music) it is not overbearing but it bring certain atmosphere and it works even if you don't notice it, didn't see any short comings with sound design or feel but also it didn't pop out mostly, only in few flashbacks it popped out for me and made me notice it more, but still great sound design. Storyis quite simple for wuxia style story, it has it's own quirks but it also borrows common concepts from other wuxia "system" stories levels, magic weapons, soul sea etc.
for experienced person in wuxia it isn't nothing impressive, but the characters even if simple their dialogue or personality doesn't feel forced, and it is enjoyable as main character does have simple goals on his mind it really doesn't undermine his character, but i can't say for certain as the story seems to presented characters did a bit of development and ended,
i wouldn't say gaining more power is a development of character more of story and as of season 1, can't tell really what is really about it.
I would recommend it to watch, but better option is to wait for second season that is in development, as for now it is decent introduction to itself but doesn't really push the story much and at end can leave you with bit of saltines of ending too soon.

Story & Characters: 7/10
The story itself is much more vast than I expected which resulted in a lot of information being thrown at the viewer within the first 4 episodes, albeit very vaguely and it especially didn't help that there was no official subbing for english upon launch despite it hinting a global release outside of China. In the donghua community we barely get modern day stories that implement a cultivation and modern mannerisms together as well as Da Wang Rao Ming; The main character Lu Shu essentially carried the show because he wasn't your typical blood thirsty no-life cultivation devotee and made it a point to troll/finesse characters that tease(d) his poor upbringing. Furthermore, his companion was an adopted sibling which made the character relationships more interesting since he had a sibling relationship that developed more as he and Lu Xiaoyu discovered their innate talents.
A lot of the criticism of the series that aren't visual are details and story lore that is lost among all other lost/non-utilized details.
At times the smaller details were very hard to avoid such as counting anger points which was done much better in "I annoy millions of cultivators" because at the end of each episode Lu Shu would be in a surplus of unspent points and arbitrarily spend them when needed. In the beginning we see that most of his points go to failed gacha spins and stinky tofu with special attributes but apart from that we rarely see the gacha system utilized especially later in the series. As the series progresses it gets harder to follow because most of the information we are meant to understand is primitively translated/delivered so a lot of detail is missed out especially cultivation bases which is mentioned for 30 seconds in the first 3 episodes and never mentioned again.
Art & Sound: 5/10
Da Wang Rao Ming pre released an opening with rotoscoped animation, abstract color palettes and high energy transitions/effects which set the bar high for anime viewers and drew a lot of first time donghua viewers to the series but it also left a bitter taste of underdelivered expectations. Marketing hype is a gimmick and almost always leads to underdelivered end products such as the recent example of Cyberpunk 2077 with over the top visual teasers, high reputation collaboration and endless day one bugs. Unfortunately, Da Wang Rao Ming is the epitome of Cyberpunk 2077 in anime/donghua terms; For the most part the series was a good watch with consistent character proportions in varying shot sizes, dynamic action choreography and use of CGI. However, in comparison to its opening visuals and high reputation director/staff, this series was an underwhelming experience of a donghua. The art style was typical of any 2D digital donghua but the visual resolution seemed a lot higher than many 2D donghua which kept me watching despite its visual flaws.
The voice acting wasn't the best, there aren't many consistent background music or sound effects and at one point I've heard they re-use audio assets from gaming companies. The opening and ending music is definitely of higher quality and have catchy beats/vocals which kept me attached to each episode beginning to end. Overall, it was average in the audio department but for the next season I would like to see (more) implementation of their ED and OP music in hero-scenes with Lu Shu.
Overall & Enjoyment: 6/10
It's above average in my opinion, not worth the current hype but it is a lot better the more I watch it. Next season, I hope they don't do those marketing gimmicks to hook japanese anime viewers in because it could drop their expectations of donghua and prevent many first time viewers from watching other Chinese productions.

I finished the anime confused I still don’t get the power level system it felt random. The main characters power system confused me the most why did he get this new ability I don’t know. His little sister abilities weren’t really explained The side characters feel 1 dimensional and didn’t make a impact on me. Give me a reason to actually care about them, I can hardly remember there names. The pacing is slow the story doesn’t really go anywhere which is disappointing and when it does move it felt rushed like why are they here. It was really funny at times but it’s abit repetitive
I’m hoping season two will fix the first seasons flaws
LegionIscariot
A very well written and nicely paced anime. Made in China. There is alot of talking and it might turn some people off, which is understandable. But i found the conversations fascinating that i wasnt bored. It takes its time without wasting your time. Its a story about metahumans who recently had their powers awakened. Think of them like mutants from X-Men. There is a secret organization that monitors, and trains these metahumans. They also capture rogue metahumans who cause trouble. The main character Lu Shu starts off on a low level. But by secretly feeding off of people's negative emotions he gets stronger and surpasses everyone. Heirritates as much people as possible (but in a way thats funny to the viewer) while hiding his full power.
He may come off as a stingy jerk at times but since he and his adoptive sister are orphans and poor he must do all he can to make money to make sure she is happy. They escaped the orphanage together.
The visuals are nice. The fight scenes have actual choreography to them.
Its a good mix of comedy, action, and supernatural.
The characters and the interactions between characters are great.
First time i wished a 12 episode anime was longer. 9/10
Well im off to watch season 2
Daevawolf
Great example of using their whole budget on the intro and outro. The intro is actually really cool, very artistic as well. The outro is good too but the rest of the Anime doesn't live up to that at all. The Animation and art takes a massive nose dive past the intro. The general story is alright. Not really that original though. I remember reading a manhwa with practically the same premise a couple of years ago. It is kind of funny how much of an ass the protag is though. I mean, I finished the Anime so it's not bad. It's just kind of average andI really wish it looked a bit better.
dark_username
Overall the anime is a 6.5/10 Some of the plots were interesting, had some funny scenes. But the storyline was mediocre and the main protagonist can get at annoying at times but I guess that’s his powers. Also some of the scenes were so corny that you had to laugh. The whole system upon which the magic is based is never really explained properly, or perhaps it is just bad translations that are preventing a good understanding of what is happening. Lu Shu also always ends up with too many skill points and just wastes them. later on he turns into this arrogant directionless "AssWhole"that I personally could not stand for. The story became bland and characters lost their charm. Probably will never watch this show again.

Quick review: Opening and ending song: bangers Opening animation: way above what the actual animation of the show was, so you were kinda falsely lured in expecting amazing animation, often times I notice that they're using still backgrounds where nothing is moving and only the main character in the foreground is moving which makes everything feels a bit off. Concept/Plot: it's okay, I like the parody of 'gacha' and 'trolling' that the MC does that makes it a bit diff from other shows with OP MCs. Some points in the show where the MC and "sister" interact are pretty heart-warming. Overall, it's a good show, not terrific,but I enjoyed it, maybe a s2 might make it better.
CreaTiveCranium
It had a banger of an OP that I listened to at least 100 times, I just wished the rest of the anime had the same production value. xD The story sounds like it could get a lot more interesting but the world it's built is quite shallow despite its eluding to a larger world that influences aspects of the OP's life, it happens once when he gets his powers and no other time. It likes to give pretenses of an outside world by inserting characters onto the scene that just so happen to need to be there cause the city just so happens to beimportant for A or B reason despite those reasons not really being justified properly
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
Such a reason would be the formation eye that appears and creates an ancient tomb, sure it can appear anywhere and there are a finite number of them, but it just happens one appeared like an hour away form his city.
Or that the city is supposedly the heart of the 'resistance' that doesn't appear in the first season? That's foreshadowing of grave importance that just isn't even become relevant in terms of events or effects.
*END OF SPOILERS*
In any case, it's an overall 8, music was amazing with the OP, and the added dialogue with it just made it amazing to hear cause it was just the right amount of smug to make it 100 times cooler.
Recommend a watch just to hear the OP at least.

Da wang rao ming Well what can I say. It’s a Great anime and I would recommend it. The fighting Szene‘s are descent. I like how he does this only for his sister and it’s very cute. Episode 8 was like the last 9 rated Episode from then on it was like an 8. I highly recommend it to people who want something random. Can’t wait for the second season lol. SssssssssssS Sssssssssss

I instantly started to read the manhua after the last episode. It has a great character developement (continues in the manhua). Has epic scenes, a bit overpowered main character, however it is not too much. The magic system is logical and not overcomplicated. The main character's negative energy power makes it funny and serious at the same time. I specially like how some people complain about the opening being so good while the anime is just a 7-8. But if you think about it, good openings seduce people to start animes. I feel like it was Lu shu who decided to make such a cool opening sohe can get more money :D
I recommend reading the manhua after this, because it gets even better. It's not only colored, but has nice pictures, which makes it easy to understand.

Da Wang Rao Ming / Spare Me Great Lord is one hell of a great donghua. I had watched a few and didn't like most, liked Link Click and Dragon Raja a lot, and yet this one surpasses them. Firstly, the characters are as realistic as animation industry permits. Secondly, they have growth during the season which is great. The story is easy to understand, very easy to follow, and it tells us how things develop very clearly which is a great plus as far as anime/donghua storyline progresses are concerned. Animation is very good and there is none of that 3D nonsense of many Chineseanimations have and everything is very nicely drawn and animated. Fight scenes are great and very well choreographed and normal interactions look great, too. I liked the opening theme quite a bit and generally the music score overlaps with what is on the screen.
The main character has a great speciality - he increases his "points" by annoying people and that gives Spare Me Great Lord tons of good humorous situations. Also, there is a great number of very well-depicted, very well-placed secondary characters including the sister and the wonderful, mysterious, and cool Jiang Shuyi. The storyline is consistent throughout the season and we can see how things and characters develop in time and in different situations.
I truly loved this show and I recommend it quite a lot.

"Da Wang Rao Ming" delivers a hilarious and refreshing take on the cultivation genre, centered around the unlikely hero, Shu Lu, and his adoptive sister, Xiaoyu Lu. When Shu Lu's latent cultivation powers awaken after a car accident, he finds himself in a world where cultivators are viewed with suspicion by the government. Determined to keep his abilities hidden, Shu Lu's powers thrive on the negative emotions of those around him, leading to some outrageously funny situations as he inadvertently becomes a master at pushing people's buttons. What sets "Da Wang Rao Ming" apart is its ingenious twist on the source of the protagonist's powers—Shu Lu'sknack for irritating everyone around him. This premise injects a unique and uproarious energy into the series, providing ample laughter and entertainment with each episode. Shu Lu's commitment to prioritizing his and his sister's safety over playing the hero adds depth to his character and makes him all the more endearing to viewers.
The anime expertly executed comedy that seamlessly weaves character beliefs into every hilarious moment. From Shu Lu's unconventional training regimen to his adventures with his comrades, "Da Wang Rao Ming" keeps the laughs coming while advancing the plot with adventurous undertakings.
It's worth noting that "Da Wang Rao Ming" follows more of a plot-based storyline rather than focusing heavily on character growth arcs. However, this approach doesn't detract from the overall enjoyment of the series, especially for fans seeking a lighthearted comedy that provides the perfect escape from reality.
In conclusion, "Da Wang Rao Ming" is a must-watch for comedy enthusiasts looking for something easygoing yet delightfully entertaining. With its clever premise, well-executed humor, and occasional adventurous flair, this anime offers a welcome respite for viewers in need of a good laugh.

This is an English translation of a Chinese comedic action-adventure fantasy with martial arts elements. It's got a alternate universe modern setting, so there are cities and technology, but the history is different due to the cultivation and superhuman elements. This is the story of an orphan, Lu Shu. A metahuman experiencing the changes in himself, his country and the world during the dawn of the magical era. Watch as Lu Shu embarks on a journey to hone his peculiar abilities together with his sister, the adorable and charismatic Lu Xiaoyu. Along the way, they’ll encounter supernatural events, obstacles and even the most powerful peoplein their country. How will Lu Shu make the best of his abilities and oust his never-ending list of rivals and opponents?
Fun in his life begun after Discovering his abilities.
Mix of Comedy, Fantasy and Action Genres A highly recommended one.

A lot of aspects of this show, from the setting, characters, art style, and tropes feel more like an anime than a typical donghua. You've got the high school kids, the OP MC, the sister raised by brother because parents don't exist. Other than the language, the anime watcher will probably feel at home. It's a cultivation story, but it feels more reminiscent of superhero stuff than wuxia. You might like this if you like a power fantasy where the MC doesn't need to rely on anyone and everyone else needs to rely on him. The world-building is pretty weak. It doesn't feel like a placethat could reasonably exist. Supposedly, super powers have recently sprung up in the world. There are already various factions in place with some knowledge about these super powers, and a school for the gifted which seems more intent on raising x-men than productive members of society. Unfortunately, the MC seems to have his own source of superpowers which seems unique to him and totally OP, and there is no explanation for this. The MC gains powers through a video game menu which allows access to a gacha game where he can spend currency obtained by being a dick to everyone. Why is there a video game menu? Is he playing a game? It doesn't make any sense.
Surprising for a donghua, the MC is not heroic, and kind of a greedy asshole. His one motivation is to provide for his 10-year-old sister. It hints at the possibility of some sister-con, without actually going there. He and his sister grew up as poor orphans, so making money is always on his mind. He'll do some questionable things, but he does at least show some moral compass when telling his sister what not to do. He hides his power at first, and gets bullied for his weakness, but quickly becomes the bully, going way past the point of payback. His general disregard for anybody except his sister allows him to take advantage of his strange power system to ramp up quickly by causing emotional distress in others. It's a pretty fresh system, and his swagger makes him somewhat more interesting than the average hero.
Other than the MC, the other characters don't have a lot of importance. His sister Lu Xiaoyu also has superpowers, but is a fairly minor character other than providing motivation for the MC. She's cute and a bit bratty. There's another OP character, Cao Qingci who is a classmate of MC who seems to be set up for some possible future importance in the future season. The MC has antagonized more of his class, but has one friend in his class who knows a lot about the world and feels mostly like an expository device for the author to explain the setting. It doesn't work; the setting never gets properly explained.
The animation is pretty decent. The fight scenes are good--not at the level of something like Demon Slayer, but better than many. There's not a lot of emotional impact to the fights though, even when people die, because, well, MC is just too OP and we don't care about the other characters.
The OP and ED are excellent, and have decent music combined with some really cool psychedelic sakuga.
I feel like season 1 is possibly setting up for something more interesting in the future. Like perhaps the MC goes full evil (though this seems contrary to Chinese broadcast rules). Since there is a lot that is not explained, maybe it will get better, as there is some promise. Or maybe it's false hope.

To start this review I really recommend this anime for everyone that never watched any Chinese animation before. I feel like this could be a good start for everyone. Except for me haha, the only Chinese anime I watched was Ani ni Tsukeru Kusuri wa Nai! I started watching Da Wang Rao Ming after I watched the opening and then It came... "Didn't I read some chapters from Manhua?" Then I get slightly excited... "Wait weren't there dungeons appearing in the city?" More excited... "Solo levelling is not complete yet let's see the first anime with that trope" After that, I realized that I should not be expecting much becauseI hate every Chinese anime.
Let's say it straight I would enjoy it more if it was a Japanese anime. But still, I gave it 7/10, looking forward to the second season.
To sum it up:
Enjoyed it without a break! 👍
The plot is interesting.
The animation is normal, slightly better.
Normal protagonist with a lot of jokes!
2x laughed even though it's Chinese anime, maybe only anime this season with good jokes.
Chinese is weird... So everything they say is poorly translated. And this is my main problem with EVERY Chinese anime, poor translation. I don't blame translators. It's only that Chinese is super weird.
TO SUM IT UP: Go watch it its really interesting.
