 Mo Dao Zu Shi, also known as The Master of Diabolism, The Untamed, or The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation is a Chinese novel by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu that has been adapted into a manhua, an anime, and a live action drama among other things. quote:Xian: the state of immortality that all cultivators strive to achieve. However, there is a dark energy that lies underneath—the forbidden Mo Dao, or demonic path. Through an unfortunate series of tragedies, this is the path that cultivator Wei Wuxian experiments with during his teachings. His rise in power is accompanied by chaos and destruction, but his reign of terror comes to an abrupt end when the cultivation clans overpower him and he is killed by his closest ally. Where to read/watch it: The manhua has an official English translation on Wecomics You can watch the anime on TenCent's youtube channel -- playlist here and Netflix recently added the live action version as The Untamed or you can watch it also on YouTube. There's also a fan translation of the novel which I won't link but is fairly easy to find. Everything Burrito fucked around with this message at 21:12 on Nov 14, 2019 |

most of that is in the novel apparently, as best I can tell every adaption has stripped more of the romance out of it e: and yeah, I've mostly been following the comic and it's more overt -- still a lot of stuff apparently cut or glossed over though. I'd like to check out the novel eventually but I kinda need the pictures to remember who all the side characters are Everything Burrito fucked around with this message at 04:37 on Nov 15, 2019 |

If you want actual kissing in Chinese anime, you're gonna have to watch Spiritpact, which I love a lot, but the animation downgrade takes a little getting used to.

 Saw this image floating around on my tl, it's from the TGCF donghua (Heaven Official's Blessing the thing from a couple posts back) for reaching 1m+ followers (source) I've been reading the manhua of this one a bit and the art is beautiful but the story is kind of hard to follow, I assume because it skips a bunch of novel content. If the donghua lives up to the comic's art though holy poo poo, it'll be absolutely gorgeous.

I'm really excited for S3 of the donghua, although I'm in the middle of The Untamed right now. The original author has all three of her big works slated for donghua. I'm most excited for Scum Villain's Self-Saving System, even though that one has struggled with drama. A manhua started for it, but the fans found out that the company making it had an employee who'd said something negative about the series in the past on Twitter or Weibo or something? And so they flipped out, the manhua got taken down, and no other company has picked it up yet. TGCF has one at the moment, though. As for MDZS, I really love it. Wen Ning is probably my favorite character. The plot twists and development are a lot of fun (I don't want to discuss them in depth since this is for every piece of MDZS media), and the visuals in the donghua and live action are gorgeous. I haven't looked at the manhua yet, but the translation of the novel into English, while unofficial, is coherent and interesting.

Scum Villain looks pretty fun, I haven't read anything other than a bit of plot summary just to get some idea who the characters are as yet though. I've been getting deeper into the fandom side and it's hard to keep track of what everyone is talking about because it's so coded with initials and ship names (I still don't know what beefleaf is)

I've been getting deeper into the fandom side and it's hard to keep track of what everyone is talking about because it's so coded with initials and ship names (I still don't know what beefleaf is) The initials are so confusing! I've gotten better at it, but seeing LWJ/LZ when I've already learned two or three names for the characters (like... Lan Zhan, Lan Wangji, & Hanguang Jun) is A Lot. I mostly stick to fanfiction because I can tab out and check character names easily or just... power through and figure out who's who eventually via context clues. I couldn't tell you what beefleaf is either... but if I don't know it, it's probably TGCF. Scum Villain is good, although it has some of the more shady BL tropes? I'd Strongly Recommend skipping pretty much every sex scene, because they are Horrendous. But on the other hand, it is better about keeping women alive than MDZS. The author did write it before MDZS and TGCF, and you can tell that she's gotten more experienced since, but I really enjoy the supporting cast. Oh! Here's the trailer for the SVSSS. It kind of feels like the unfavorite, since it got 3DCG treatment, but I'm still excited for it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO1rcyLbefg

I'm really excited to see how that plays out! There's a mechanic where he can't be OOC, so I think his internal dialogue vs his external appearance is going to be hilarious. Here's hoping!
