It's true. XHS's algorithm learns super fast. I've been there less than a week and today it figured out I truly want a Lotus Tower DIY kit. Can I afford it? Nope, but just look at it!

『蓮花楼』完走雑感
因果応報、救済、解脱という感じの
仏教色濃いなぁという
死期の迫った主人公が謎を解きながら過去の因縁と柵からも解放されていくかんじ謎解き部分の、またかよ感がどうにもうんざりしてしまうのと、主人公のちゃらんぽらんさ加減がもう一つだったかなぁ
本人とてもまじめな方のような気がする
演技を頑張ってる感じとメイクが苦手だったかも…江湖ものでの赤い衣装は『江湖英雄伝』のバロン・チェン演じる蘇夢枕が死期迫ってるのにかっこよすぎたので、ずっとしっくりこないまま完走してしまった。別の作品だったら成毅さんでもみられるのかなぁ？
ドラマのラストがエッ？という終わり方だったけど、これでいいらしい
ま、そのうち会えることもあるんじゃないのかな
と思ったらおまけ動画があったいつか再会できるといいね
あー、再会したときにあの笛飛声のように記憶喪失とかだったりしたら嫌だな【莲花楼最全番外】李莲花这场江湖梦太美，收藏起来慢慢看！#MysteriousLotusCasebook #chengyi - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8aHowSpPio

Ok, time to say good bye to Mysterious Lotus Casebook, but I did one last gif hunt - and I will use this one at the drop of a hat!

If I was the guy in green screen pajama in the background I 100% would answer the question
"So, what's your job at Heng Dian World Studios?"
with
"I can't say too much, but I'm pulling the strings around there."

BTS fotage from China and Korea is a culture shock for me. What I want is interesting semi-documentaries of how the drama was made*, what C- and K drama serves are plopping sound effects, cutsie decals, and humorous pointers. Ah well - who am I to rearrange someone elses living room? Haven't seen these before, so I'll better get used to it.
(*Granted, it's not always good documentaries for Western movies etc - but sometimes you get lucky.)

Oh, not me downloading the funniest Mysterious Lotus Casebook gifs from tumblr... (Small selection in next toot)

Now _that_ is a guan! The designer is stretching the limits here - the piece is jiggling dangeroisly when Not-Ye Baiyi is moving. But I guess they took the risk because it's such a perfect illustration of the character's high flying thoughts about himself. Of _course_ he'll miracuosly succeed this time.

Mysterious Stardew Valley Casebook strikes again.

Stumbled upon one of those 'what would the combination of your latest tv show and game be?' and ended up with
Mysterious Stardew Valley CasebookAt least there's _one_ character who'd like it...

Someone help me out! Is Fang Duobing/Xiaobao actually named Fang Lotsa' illness/Little bun? (I'm way too groggy to look at Chinese characters rn.)

Yes! A good exemple of how to build depth _and_ dramatic tension! Li Lianhua and madame are both looking at Shan Gudao's closed fist. The fist and their eyes are on a straight line sloping downwards. Since Li is in sharp focus your eyes are drawn to him, and then you follow his gaze to madam (slightly blurry) catch up on _her_ gaze and then follow it to the fist. Shan being 'cut off' and blurry gives the depth (as do the blurry background).

The supreme robe of Nanyin live up to its name! The costume designer has taken the chance to go truly bonkers! In a good way, that is. Purple gold brocade? Yes. Gold embroideries? Yes. A belt that rules a small nation? Yes. Gold embroideries on the gold embroideries? Yes, yes, and yes.
And, hehe, it looks like I hit pause at just the right moment.

I have no idea what Guillermo del Toro is watching in his free time, but I think Mysterious Lotus Casebook would be to his liking; it has Cogwheels. True, he toned it down somewhere after Hellboy II, but I'm kinda' with him and CDrama in this. A good cogwheel sequence improves things!

CW: Spoilerish (Character design, Mysterious Lotus Casebook)
I'm not sure if this is a CDrama thing or if it's a ChengYi thing, but here he plays being blind - and he's swivelling his eyes and body like a real blind person do. This is the first actor I've seen do this. I've spent decades watching actors staring straight ahead and not react to moving items, without realising the blind people I've talked to irl don't move that way!
-
Everyone, save for master He and minister Fang*, gets an earful from Fang Doubing if he thinks they need it - filiality be damned! This goes double for Li Lianhua who's gotten about five times more than anyone else. This is why I pointed out (long ago) that Fang actually is a filial person - despite being the call out king of the drama he moves within those parameters.
(*Fang Doubing's actual parents)
-
Fang Doubing is missing out when he refuses to marry the princess. Zhaoling is badass enough to steal that red beaker thingy from Saintress Jiao - she'd be an incredibly good jianghu wife.

I'm not so sure about those circular saw antennae, but overall that's a good design for a tank. The shape means it's near impossible to tilt over, and the dome means incomming force "slides off". I wonder if it has actual equivalents in Chinese history? If this was Western fiction I'd say someone's been playing too much rpg, but here there's a 50 - 50 chance.
-
I wonder if they had to do a very late change of actors for Zhan's (the man's) role. His clothes look like they're made for a bulkier person, not like it's a planned lose-fit. For some reason this is also where the clothes department ran out of money. Master He's sister to the left wears sturdy fabric with structure, Zhan wears flimsy cotton with prints. The designer still managed to make something impressive. A+

Oh. Just an appreciation toot of Cheng Yi's acting. He doesn't move his face much, but this is still a look that would make me go
"YouKnowWhat! INeedToWaterTheGoldfishAndFeedTheRoses! YouSortOutYourDifferencesInTheMeantime! Byyyyeee! -
CW: Spoiler (Mysterious Lotus Casebook)
Only took her ten years to realise that Di Feisheng won't budge. It's tempting to say 'because he's gay', but by the look of it Di's neither gay nor bisexual. He's not even ace. If anything he's staunchly Li-Xiangyi-fightual.

Someone borrowed some straw pleats from Word of Honor, I see! I don't know who, because MyDramaList did not list the costume designer, but whoever it is they deserves a price! The costumes of MLC are definitely in my top favourites (together with Word of Honor and White Cat Legend)!

One of those rare moments when we can see that people wear pants under their coats. Wuxia is not a perfect source for historical clothing by any stretch, but afaik the pants are not a modern addition for convenience. People did wear them. If you've ever experienced chafing a hot summer day you'll probably agree it's a good idea.
-
Master He reminds me a lot about Lwaxanna Troi; wild, overbearing personality, speaks over her child more often than not, 100% sure of her own competence, because she actually is extremely competent. But even when she kinda' don't, she still respects Fang Doubing's decision to roam jianghu. She rolls up, mauls him with mothering about taking over the family business, and then lets him leave. Given it's an wuxia she could...

OMG! Cdrama pulls _no_ punches! I won't spoil what's been said, but I can assure you Fang Doubing is sitting opposite Li Lianhua _praying_ for embarrassing baby pictures to be invented, so his mom can rob him of his dignity in a less cringy way.
-
Detective or not, Fang Doubing is being mothered in broad daylight!
Also, that hairdo is really something! You can see babyhair at her neck, meaning it's her own hair plus a massive amount of false dito woven together. They have basically taken an assembled hairdo and clipped it to her head. Some of the decorations are hiding the connection points. Props to the actress for carrying that weight while acting!
