Now, I am embarrassed to say, the original The Mystic Nine drama has been on my watch list for a long time but, with it being 48 episodes and so many other dramas still to watch, I have been putting it off.

Looks like then, with this superb of a cast, and with the wonderful William Chan back recreating his character for its sequel, I need to get my rear in gear and check this off my watch list.
Especially as, from the just-released latest trailer for The Mystic Nine Against the Storm, I know epic is an overused word, but this one certainly looks like that.
I will keep you in the loop as information drops about its premiere date, with word out of China saying to expect a Summer 2026 release — so yep, coming soon. When it does, it will be a YOUKU release.
