MDZS has many adaptations already so I kinda have the grasp of how the story goes. As for TGCF, it's gonna have a Donghua this year so I wanted to read the novel first so I can finally know what the references are in the future. Also to understand the memes on twitter. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ I'll put SVSS last since they said it's more graphic than MDZS.
I can't get enough of MDZS, except the CQL (too many changes). I literally hate myself for starting SVSSS first. First, the translators in the beginning were terrible and it kinda expects you to have some c-novel knowledge before hand (I had no idea wtf was going on 10 chapters in). I like the core story but I feel like TGCF is much more in my style after MDZS.
I hope I can catch up to MXTX's before they release another novel DX
It's also getting ready for launching but instead of 2D it's in CG. I follow a lot of people on twitter so I'm kinda updated about MXTX's works. I don't know if some fans will like it since the art style is kinda...( ̄∇ ̄") But I'll watch it so I'll know the story since I keep on interchanging it with The Husky and White Cat story because both of them have a Shizun there.
I know. I saw the trailers for SVSSS. There were a lot of clipping in animation but if the story is good, I'm all in. Environment vise it looks great.
Do you think other BL novels will get the same treatment? So far only MXTX's are seriously getting fame. Only other I know is Guardian with the modern tv series
If MXTX's works paved the way then I believe it will happen to the other stories. The Husky and Shizun one is getting a live action, although a lot of people are disappointed because they changed a character's gender. Not sure if to creat hetero romance or just for plot's sake. (I haven't read the novel so IDK) Maybe in the near future or if Chinese BL's get more popular abroad then it would most likely happen.
Once something makes money, it usually leads to other works being done. I planned on reading 2Ha, but I definitely won't watch the drama. You do kinda lose the point of it when you make a character a female. One other BL series suffered the same this year. Makes me actually appreciate CQL for something.
The best place would be Taiwan, they already have some successful BL released. It's much closer because of the language and culture than say Japan or Thailand
I haven't read it since I don't like how it looks. The drama is called Forward Forever, I think they changed the original name of the novel since it's not coming up on novel updates. I heard good stuff about Legendary Masters Wife novel, others I forgot the names...
I would also like some recommendations. I do like xianxia/wuxia/xuanhuan works (tho I still can't see the difference between the genres XD)
Thanks! I’m still learning about the different types of Chinese stories so I’m not yet familiar. I’m reading a Manhua version of Silent Lover though. It’s good but they said the novel is better. Maybe in the future, a better group could translate it so I’ll wait. There’s a story called Sha Po Lang that looks promising. I’ll read it after TGCF.
I skipped a hell of a lot of parts in the novel but this makes me want to read it from top to bottom! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧ I don't think I'l be able to handle the 3rd season of the Donghua if they get to that part now.
