Had another idea, with the interdimensional chat thing. Might use you as a character prospective again. Maybe use others too. Me same. Hm. Should be fine with that, right?
Those Gacha stories are pretty "fast foody", you know, because there's no plot, just "favorite characters open chests", well, they usually call them "jars", but you know what I mean, right? "MC binds to a multiverse storefront and sells 'jars' to characters that readers like and they gamble gamble gamble" that kind of story
So "The Last of Us" was officially mistranslated in Chinese as "The Last of US", so Chinese audiences only know the series as "美国末日", or literally "American Apocalypse".
I mean, yeah, Douluo Dalu is trash writing, but it's still "good" and "real", you know, there's not really any "I can't touch this" kind of writing in there
Like most wuxia, I guess, I mean, these days, there's a lot more censorship, yes
Danmachi power system has got to be one of the most worthless things ever. None of the numbers really matter and no one cares about them after each level, the big "level 1/2/3/whatever" only matter when the protagonist isn't there, the super special protagonist halo in the abilities is just a scaled down version of the OP JRPG cheat skills screen, and everyone's just arbitrary in power feats
"I isekaied a hundred years ago to Bleach as a new soul in the shinigami academy and worked tirelessly day and night, and just became captain-level, just to find out my Fishy system was lazy and procrastinated onlt only awakened just now, and all it gives me are newbie level quests."
If you think about it, King's power isn't that rare in Chinese novels, or just Chinese stories in general. "Face slapping" is basically having the King Engine roaring in the background all the time
There's also that Akai Shuichi isn't just Miyano Akemi's boyfriend but also her cousin, and he still used her to get into the Black Organization and led to both her and her sister's tragedies, what's up with that guy looking like a young Michael Jackson despite being half Japanese and half white
I've been discovering a music genre called breakcore recently and listened to so much of it that I've given myself an earworm.
It's not even a specific song but my brain blending them all together and cause it remembers them incorrectly it constantly remixes them. It's actually kind of awesome.
So basically, here, it's not called something stupid like "reverse sexual morality" or whatever other retard label that sprung up from the internet, instead, it's called "Women's Rights". I'm not joking, you can search for the stories that start with "女尊:..." . Of course, the literal translation is "Female Respect", but you know. Still silly, like still not meaning what it means, but very different.
So the reason why Douluo Dalu is called the "sewer gutters of xianxia genre", one reason is because of the trashy (but still better than RWBY) writing, but the main reason is that the MC could kill the peak power level people with gadgets from a middle level wuxia world, as well as the cultivation methods from a second rate sect stolen by the MC in that world are OP and considered cheats in Douluo Dalu
So you know, the Chinese/Taiwanese version of the game is so nice, elegant, and has some big ideals and stuff, and the title is the same, with the same kind of poetic nature, but the moment the title is translated to English, it becomes this shitty "Chinese Paladin: Sword and Fairy" lmao what the fuck is this
Like you know, "ANBU" is used more by the English audience used to the American three letter organizations, but in Japanese and Chinese they're always addressed as "the dark part", but it feels like English readers would get angry and would be hardheaded against that kind of title in a story
