So was anyone going to tell me that Fei Tian Ye Xiang wrote 13 chapters of noncon porn about Liu Bang/Xiang Yu or were you just waiting for me to find out by myself? 😳

Interesting paper by the groups of Zhi Zhou and Xiang Sheng in Nature Communications. They developed a system, with which thiophenols can be fed to cells, converted into non-canonical amino acids and directly used for genetic code expansion in protein engineering.

Alguns Gêneros de Novels Chinesas
Um pequeno guia para iniciantes no mundo das novels chinesas:
Wuxia
Wuxia significa “heróis marciais” e caracteriza histórias ficcionais sobre humanos que adquirem habilidades sobrenaturais de luta graças ao treinamento de artes marciais chinesas e ao cultivo de energia interna.
Exemplo:
The Emperor’s Strategy/帝王攻略(Di Wang Gong Lue)
Onde ler: MLTNovels.com ;
Xianxia
Xianxia significa “heróis imortais, são histórias ficcionais com magia, criaturas sobrenaturais e elementos da mitologia e do folclore chinês. Os protagonistas destas histórias quase sempre buscam alcançar a imortalidade e, ou, o pináculo da força. É fortemente influenciado pelo Taoísmo.
Exemplo:
The Founder of Diabolism/魔道祖师(Mo Dao Zu Shi)
Onde ler: Exiledrebelstranslations.com ;
Xuanhuan
Xuanhuan significa “fantasia misteriosa”. Um gênero bastante diverso de histórias ficcionais que misturam mitologia é folclore chinês com cenários estrangeiros. Xuanhuan e xianxia costumam ser superficialmente parecidos, mas é possível diferenciar. Histórias ficcionais contendo elementos daoístas (dao, yin e yang, imortais) caracterizam xianxia. Quando estes conceitos não estão presentes então é xuanhuan.
Exemplo:
Heaven Official’s Blessing/天官赐福(Tiān Guān Cì Fú)

Outras Categorias de Novel Chinesa
Existem outros gêneros de novels chinesas como danmei e baihe que são os equivalentes chineses respectivamente a gêneros como yaoi e yuri.
A maioria das novels que eu citei como exemplos baseados na postagem do blog de onde eu peguei as definições são de obras que são categorizadas como danmei, yaois, shounen ai ou bl, boys love. Mas elas não representam toda nem a maioria da indústria. As novels mais comuns são as de aventura e ação com protagonistas masculinos e relações heterossexuais. Novels com protagonistas femininas heterossexuais e obras focadas em relações homossexuais masculinas existem em quantidades semelhantes. Novels sáficas infelizmente são menos comuns, ao menos nos sites de traduções estrangeiros e nacionais.
Também existem histórias nos gêneros harém e harém reverso. Bem como romances contendo transmigração, que são muito semelhantes a isekais, mas costumam ter um sistema um pouco diferente. Em muitas obras é quase uma forma de “quebra da quarta parede” e os “sistemas” em romances de transmigração, além de guias, costumam ser personagens da história, apesar de não terem um corpo físico.
Mas eu escolhi focar apenas nestes três gêneros (Wuxia, Xianxia e Xuanhuan) porque são típicos da literatura chinesa. As novels que eu mais leio são as chinesas, seguidas pelas ocidentais, na frente das sul-coreanas e por último as japonesas. Também existem muitos brasileiros escrevendo histórias nesse formato e as publicando em diversas plataformas, com uma boa variedade de gêneros. Não só brasileiros mas de outros países do Sul Global, da África até países da Ásia menos “falados” como Tailândia, Vietnã etc.

Hmmmm... This guy has light grey/blue eyes, and is covered in coins. What _could_ be the inspiration behind? It's a true mystery, but let's call him Mammon for now - the god famously worshipped in Silent Movie by Mel Brooks. (And kind of the antithesis to the Chinese God of Wealth.)

According to MyDramaList this is _not_ an Ed Guo drama. I'm... a bit shocked, but it is true that C-drama land often produces visually stunning pieces, so I shouldn't be surprised. So far, and I'm only 4+ minutes in, I've seen so many stunning props and awesome costumes my brain screeching 😅. I'll return tomorrow, when I can start earlier to make time for long comments.

See through special effects and OTT OP* characters. Yep. This is _exactly_ what I need rn. Keeping my fingers crossed the story will hold up!
(Over The Top Over Powered - something pretty common in C-drama land.)

Ok, the Lost National Treasure was too adrenaline inducing (still looks good - I may schedule afternoon watches for it), so here we go again... I'll actually try what iQiyi thinks I want to watch this time. According to the trailer it has a blue orc* and big junks**, and it's hard to go wrong with that!
(*more precisely a demon based on buddhist art)

CW: Fate Chooses You, spoiler plus naming and shaming, caps
I found a new trope that makes me nope out. Usually I keep negative criticism to myself - I see no reason to focus on stuff that tend to pop up in Western fiction too
BUT
This is both bad storytelling - it's an illogical move that achieves so little no one with a brain should chose it - and _unfresh_. It's a majestic overstep no romance should survive - no matter how just desert the ml get.

I live in IKEA land (Sweden), and while the furniture megalodon has its advantages, it sucks at lamp design - in my eyes. Unfortunately they also set the tone for every affordable fixture in this land. I have rarely encountered a lamp I liked - maybe due to me falling in love with palace lanterns when I was ~4yrs. So excuse me while froth at the mouth for a while because to the left we have The Mother Of All Palace Lanterns! Aaaaaaaah!!!

Every production has a few signature visuals. Palette choice is a standard, though few dramas go as far as Moonlight Mystique*, differences in costume decoration another. Here's one of Fate Chooses You's; bold camera angles. I wouldn't be surprised if this drama is based on a manhua and it's an inheritance from the comics format. Here's our 2nd couple feeling small while big and justified things are happening upstairs.

First of all; if he's 'bai' (white), why is he all dressed in black?
Second: Di Fei Sheng? Here?
Actors _are_ allowed to take more than one role, I know, but in my mind some of them get stuck on the first one I saw them in. I'm not sure how many episodes it'll take to rewire my brain - worst case scenario I'll have to invent an elaborate AU for this dude _and_ Riley Wang.

Colours play a large role in Fate Choses You, and that means...
*notices the lamp to the left*
*starts pondering different ways a DIY version would project light*
*briefly wonders how the lamp is related to palace lanterns*
*forces herself back on track*
...that the production put a lot of thought in how it uses colours. Note the yellow/brown/green/blue palette here. Bright, yet neither childish nor garish. A+!

I can't help but thinking this should be a scene in Petal Boys. That flower is obviously the little petunia that always gets distracted by a new hobby, right before she makes her breakthrough in her cultivation and assumes human form.
How _do_ you pitch a C-drama to C-drama land btw? Asking for a friend...

A modern-day slacker ends up in a xianxia world. Arthur Chen’s magnetic charm and Wang Yilu’s comedy chops made this drama fun, even if it's not my cup of tea.
