    [Now You See Me] and the following heist movie have such silly titles, whereas in Chinese, they picked a really poetic one, 出神入化, which has too much meaning it's kind of gross to use on such films

    Tianlong Babu (Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils) has three sad MCs:

    1. "First Simp of the entire Wuxia genre" Duan Yu
    2. "Accidentally killed my wife thinking she was her father" Xiao Feng
    3. "Monk who NTR'd himself repeatedly" Xu Zhu

    And they were each fucked over by their dads, but it's well liked by wuxia fans for some reason, especially after the author kept editing and changing the female characters' personalities...

    People don't like the "pokemon in real world" genre compared to "pokemon in pokemon games/show/manga" genre, but if you think about it, Detective Pikachu world is basically just "pokemon in real world" hmmm

    ..."assuming Pokeballs can be invented, our world basically turns into the Pokemon world, with the state and large-scale infrastructure disintegrating due to the super-dangerous wildlife and the democratisation of WMDs, and upward mobility consisting of obtaining your own stash of WMDs".

    I found this one story where MC isekais to Pokemon game, and they don't have records of Shiny Rayquaza in pokedex, so MC introduces it as a mutated caterpie
    d.fish
    Even though they're different stories, it seems like Demigods and Semi-Devils happened 1120's, and then like 70 years later, The Condor Heroes happened, and then 20 years later, Return of the Condor Heroes happened, and then like 80 years later, Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber happened, Deer and Cauldron happened 380 years later in the 1670's, and then Yue Girl Sword happened 500 BC or something

    But for some fucking reason, those people writing these "gestalt wuxia" worlds always mesh these settings into happening all at the same time, like is it that obvious China hasn't had any tech upgrades in such a long time?

    Maybe telling the story from a different POV might work, like instead of "I am the Fated Villain" or "I am the Villain in the City" or whatever, you could have "I am a Villain System"

    well, I didn't like it that much

    don't like stories that make jokes of their protagonist like this one; MC has to keep suffering pain, the 250 years of cultivation newbie pack was worthless, girls MC has eyes on all get taken, etc.

    The other story where the MC became Yu Huatian is much much better imo

    lots of tricks and intrigue and power struggles, and rejects stupid 1v1 duels and rejects letting people live and doesn't tolerate pretty girls trying to kill him

    I found this really nice "villain" wuxia story, it's not one of those "I'm just here for the harem" or those "I'm a retard murderhobo" or those "I'm a Chinese protagonist in disguise/with a villain label", it's actually a MC who acts out desires, does edgy evil shit with a purpose, and early stage it's like a bad cop in the secret service type story

    For some reason, in modern wuxia, Japanese fighters are always only "jianhao" (sword exclusive ronin) or ninja

    While, Murong Fu (from Tianlong Babu) is always ridiculed for focusing on other martial arts instead of his family skill is "miraculous" for taking enemy attacks and returning it back to them

    While in wuxia, aikido doesn't exist

    I get that it's a relatively modern martial art, considering Tianlong Babu takes place like 1100's, but it still feels like the Japanese are being treated awfully in wuxia, maybe racism idk

    Like, the few times Korea appears, like in 大唐雙龍傳, there's a peak level existence there

    Or even in 倚天屠龙记, the Persians have a "Become Superman" skill

    It seems like a lot of wuxia has a "demon dance", which is a seductive dance done by succubus-like evil path women, but it's supposed to be inspired by Liao/Yuan dynasty's mongol/nomad's captured female slave dancers, just like one of the more ubiquitous aphrodisiac/rape drug that can be translated as "mongolian sweat medicine" lmao

    It's because the kanji for Sasuke is Zuo Zhu, which is supposed to be 'to help', but 'Zhu' is phonetically similar to the 'Zhu' of 'pillar', and 'two' as in 'er' is a meme term for stupid, so he's nicknamed 'Er Zhu' which is 'Two Pillars', so basically it's a nickname to say that he's an idiot

    I saw this guy with a small innovation on the "multiverse chatroom" idea, you know, well, one person had made a tweak like this before; basically the first one was MC joins a Multiverse Heroes chat, gets kicked, and then joins a Multiverse Villains chat, helps villains rape heroes, etc.

    This new one is more like how modern people are; MC has multiple chatrooms at the same time

    It's more than that, it's like "Naruto Chatroom", "Slice of Life Chatroom", "Toriko Chatroom", etc. so it's like a different way of talking to, traversing to, etc. different characters/settings, while still from the comfort of your room like a hikineet loser, which is probably the most of the readers of this kind of story

    A meme phrase that is used a lot is "I'll let you know why flowers are so red", which is an implication that I'm going to beat you so hard that you're going to bleed until you paint all the flowers in the garden with a coat of blood, originating from some piece of shit meme song, as some memes tend to do

    It's so annoying that some stories use "zhang" as a measurement for height, like "this monkey demon is grew to two zhang, like a moving mountain of muscle", like what does that even mean

    and then I realized foreign readers probably felt the same with shit like "inch" and "dozen"

    but zhang is 1.68 meters, which is like knuts and sickles

    but actually just average height maybe

    So China had this kind of pronouns chaos thing too before, and it was kind of political, but it was like 600 years ago during the Ming era, when monks used to call themselves 咱家 to represent indifference and inner peace, but was later gender appropriated by eunuchs to represent lack of sex/desire, so they say 咱家 in place of other pronouns

    Now it's a pronoun for eunuchs
