Thank you donghua team for showing what a badass Wei Wuxian can be, especially when he uses demonic cultivation.

Also poor him, those Yiling Laozu portraits were drawn so hideously xD

That music when Xiao Xingchen was introduced was epic. Wonder what it's called from the OST? Also who's that mysterious guy in the black cloak with him? Song Lan?

3 is subbed ❤️❤️❤️

Is it just me or is this like the 3rd time JC is pulling the backwards-glance "lwj are you gonna get in my way!" Yes man he finna get in your way he explained that to you back in s1.

They're really seamlessly slipping in those Cornetto ads 😂

I'm not ashamed to say I yelled the whole time for Wen Ning to beat Jiang Cheng during their fight. JC looked really cool flying on his sword and using Zidian. JC and JL are truly big and small grumpy. Jin Guangyao's influence is so minimal on Jin Ling.

Jiang FengMian is so beautiful and soft. He reminds me of those mums in anime that always end up dead in some way. He was too good for the world <3

I find it exciting that I'm not entirely sure what's going on. I think I know who's behind the experiments now, but I got lost at some bits. Can't wait for some proper reveals. But I think they should slow the pace a bit. I'm getting the feeling that one of my favourite arcs will end up being an episode long (which is too short if they do it)

I really like how they sneak in the advertisements in there doesnt really disrupt the flow of the show that much.

Yeah Im not really sure what is going on either at times. It feels like there is something happening constantly and to see the bits and pieces start making sense, forming around and constructing into a bigger picture feels really satisfying

Serious question. Where can I get those cornettos?

Anyway, they've strayed off the novel a bit but managed to bring in Xiao Xingchen. Guess it's time to bring in the handkerchief.

I'm definitely not ready to have my heart shattered by Yi City again :(

It was great seeing Jiang Cheng again <3 Wei Wuxian being offended by the Yiling Laozu drawings was the funniest scene in the episode lol

Now that was a really smooth advertisement !

Fantastic episode as usual, I really like the chemistry between Lan Wangji and Mo/Wei Wuxian, I think LWJ has some doubts about WWX's revival


WWX's brother seems to have gone mad over the years. Well, I can understand him because...the Lotus Pier, you know, but he may becomes an antagonist further in the anime

Unfortunately, yes

I'm still going to watch it for the story and characters. And, who knows, they already tweaked character designs after fan complaints, so it may still turn up fine

I think it's getting the full MDZS treatment. Donghua, manhua, live action, audio drama and a video game.
I wonder how the MDZS game development is going on...

Another great episode. I laughed at the cornetto ad. Cheng's dad nearing the end of the episode looked gorgeous.

Really love the vibe and how relaxing this show is eventho its supposed to be gloomy and dark, the ost are really the best one from this season.

Now they have made the cornetto ad a part of the story. lol.

I really want to know Wei Wuxian's full past! He doesn't seem like a cruel man, but the end of season 1 does show a rather cruel side of him.

Sometimes, I feel like the characters sound quite similar to their live-action counterparts.

Did season 1 ever talk about Wei Wuxian's mum? I have no memory of it.

The episode just ended. I am quite curious to know what happened to the coward Qinghe Nie boy. I'd say he was being a bad leader, but he just had a conversation with a bird.

That''s the beauty of MDZS. You already know Wei WuXian was a bad guy from the beginning, now you just need to discover exactly why he became so infamous. It's kinda like knowing a spoiler for the end of an movie yet it doesn't ruin it at all.

Fun fact. Almost all (if not all) Donghua and audio drama MDZS voice actors lend their voices in live action. You might have noticed live!LWJ and donghua!LWJ sound similar? They are voiced by the same dude lol.
My personal favourite is that donghua Lan QiRen is live action Wen Ruohan XD

That is quite interesting. It felt like Lan WangJi, Wei Wuxian and Jiang Cheng from the donghua sounded quite similar to their live-action counterparts.

There is an audio drama too? I feel like MDZS is only missing video game and card game adaptions, unless it has those too.

WWX was voiced by the audio drama VA, they sound very similar. And JC is voiced by audio drama Lan XiChen, another interesting choice! (here's a link to some more VA triva: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Trivia/TheUntamed)

MDZS currently, not counting the novel, has: donghua, audio drama, manhua, ebook (narrated by audio drama Sect Leader Jiang) and live action. A video game is in development, not sure which genre or style

I saw the link. I am not very familiar with Chinese dramas, but are they always dubbed by voice actors? I have only ever seen one other Chinese drama, and it also sounded quite dubbed.

It's actually getting a video game adaptation? lol. Well, this is an entertaining story, so I guess it deserves it.

I don't know. The Untamed was my first chinese drama, might go for one other but I can't guess if it's also dubbed or not. I personally wouldn't have noticed if Lan Wangji and Wen Ruohan hadn't sounded so familiar. I really wish Japan made more dramas set in some older period, I'm sick of all the school things they do

It deserves it. The novel was the best read I did. The author's other two novels are also going to get adaptations. He latest book is getting everything like MDZS. Not sure about the first tho, it's getting a 3d donghua (2020), manhua and audio drama (not sure).

Wei wuxian being afraid of dogs never fails to make me laugh. Although it’s sad when you know the reason why he’s afraid of dogs.

Wait just a minute... did Cheng and Wei don't recognize each other as brothers anymore? What's going on here? x_x That was shocking.
