this is, in my opinion, the best show in the series. it went beyond kung fu and touched on human emotions. the show kept you wondering what the finale would be like. and unlike what the trailer suggests and what previous shows did, it did not climax with the fight with the oppressive guai lou played by mike tyson (and who spoke shitty cantonese). in fact, that particular fight ended rather abruptly. if any, and on hindsight, that fight gave them back the "face" they lost during the previous episodes - that guai lou do indeed have the ability to honour their words, despite their superiority complex. and to me, the most impactful phrase in the whole show came in the last minutes of the show. it went something like "what's important in life is not about winning or losing, it's about the people we are closest to..."
beautiful!
