CW: The Imperial Coroner (c-drama review and possible transphobia)
Innocent young girl comes to the big city, makes some killer autopsies, and wins the heart of a prince. There's also crime, rebellion, and treason.
I enjoyed the ride - it's a historical drama not afraid to go "historical" if needed. Add female friendship and middle aged women who _aren't_ bitches to the mix. But the role of the eunuchs felt unfresh.

CW: The Untamed (review)
The infamous black magician Wei Wuxian wakes up after being dead for 16yrs. Now he has to find out why - but first a(n ejoyable) detour into his epic origin and his relation to Lan Wangji.
To spare anyone just as impatient as me; the flashback ends at ep 31 - enjoy the story. I also recommend watching the series twice to enjoy the first eps and entangle the subplots. It's definitely good enough for that.

CW: Alice in Wonderland, Lewis Carrol (review)
TBH there's not much plot in this - it's mostly Alice getting around a strange country with weird characters. It's still one of those classics that _are_ enjoyable to read. You won't regret it, but you may ask 'Dafuq was this???' afterwards.

CW: Review Samurai7 (anime, 2004)
This is either the last sigh of the 80s, or the future dystopia is queer. So. Very. Queer. Regardless I love it! The series is based on Seven Samurai, with a few upgrades to the plotline and the characters (sometimes literally). In addition to a good story we get big robots, levitating cities, and - of course - humungous swords.
