 I think I'm about to embark on a wuxia binge(sure, I only have 3 series waiting, but I could probably make that last a month)  As several people have friended me since I last watched wuxia(not that it's been that long) and some probably didn't know what I was talking about when I was posting, I have slapped together a wuxia guide-type post.

Ok, do DLs despise me or something?  Three out of five episodes of Liar Game haven't joined right for me...the other 2 eps were put on megaupload as hardsubs so I got those that way, but so far ep 5 is only available as a torrent...and I have NEVER had a torrent finish DLing.  Seriously...I left one going for a month once and it didn't finish.  The ( Read more... )

Ah bliss, I am back to loving Little Fish to death again.  Amazing the difference in character appreciation when the series is being approached the right way from when it's being approached the wrong way.  Course, now we have palace intrigue...and...urm...generally I like palace intrigue, but as I really only care about Little Fish's part in the ( Read more... )

Nothing to say on the last few eps, really.  The one problem that I have with this series(and likely the ONLY thing that will keep this from being really, really high on my favorites list) is that, while I love Little Fish, he's a character that really only works when he's playing off a lead of equal or higher import.  On his own, he's likable, but ( Read more... )

Reunions.  Rescues. Blindness. Death of True Love-real.  Death of True Love-believed(but very much not real according to many pics on my harddrive)  Unrequitted love.  Revenge.  Utter despair and devastation.

Seriously, all I could think watching these two episodes was "

First- Su Ying, the doctor-and Concubine Shu-Xian's sister-are completely awesome and aren't being used NEARLY enough.  But then, that's one thing I've noticed about these shows-no matter what the leads are like, you can count on having some awesome supporting to characters to take up any slack that might exist.

Here's the thing-Little Fish and Xian ( Read more... )

Up to...uhm...ep 15 or so in Handsome Siblings.  I'd do squeeing and such but don't quite feel like it, so instead, a bunch of pics, mostly only up to this point, with some commentary.  Some get bigger when you click on them.

*whistles*  People get displeased at their pet falling in love.

I'm actually mildly annoyed with the last two eps.  If you've read my other posts, you know that I adore the character of Little Fish, but I like him as a part of the main story.  When it broke off for about an ep and a half for his backstory it was fine-the other characters can be explained pretty well with a few lines, but you need to SEE his ( Read more... )
