Whatever you do, don't mention Panda Express while you're in Lo Pan's Mandarin Delights restaurant.

A monkey-like aquatic demon, Wuzhiqi was both powerful and disastrous, making the flooding in his area even worse by kicking up waves.

NIAN

Back with another round of 2022 Huluween shorts, we get NIAN from filmmaker  Michelle Krusiec. The beginning starts a little shaky with the dialogue, but man, the scare scene at the end really lifts this film up with impressive special & practical effects. That section alone could compete with many straight to streaming titles that I’ve seen lately. Krusiec’s clever use of Chinese mythology with the Nian legend, adds history and weight to her timely story about modern day anti-Asian racism. At roughly six minutes, you should certainly give this horror short a look!

The scale of MXTX characters hand writing from Worst to Best

Hua Cheng: literally intelligible, those basically aren't even words any.

Wei wuxian: the equivalent of a sleep deprived adhd stem student notes right before an exam. Technically legible but only to him, people who know him really well.

Luo Binghe: it's good. Not outstanding but Nicely legible, pretty when it needs to be.

Shen Qingqiu: technically there's nothing wrong with his hand writing, but His writing is too modern for the Xianxia settings he's living in and although it's not too much of a problem it's definitely enough to make peoples eyebrow raise.

Xie Lian: stunningly beautiful calligraphy. Truly just art in written form.

Lan wangji: the most beautiful and technically perfect hand writing you have everything seen. Calligraphy teachers weap with joy when they see his writing.

#i dont know what this is #its just something that appeared in my mind #im not entirely sure how different modern Chinese handwriting would be from historical calligraphy #but based on my understanding of written language evolution as a rule i theres theres probably some noticable difference #which would trip up shen yuans modern ass #:P #mxtx characters #mxtx mdzs #mxtx #mxtx tgcf #mxtx svsss #hua cheng #wei wuxian #shen qingqiu #shen yuan #luo binghe #xie lian #lan wangji #scum villian self saving system #scum villain #mo dao zu shi #grand master of demonic cultivation #heaven official's blessing #tian guan ci fu #shit post

MXTX Diaspora May is back for 2024!

MXTX Diaspora May is an event in which Chinese diaspora creators come together to share the diverse aspects of Chinese culture, as well as connect with each other over lived experiences.

Through the promotion and creation of these fanworks, we hope to encourage thoughtful self-reflection throughout the broader fandom, especially with regard to embracing cultural humility and dismantling structures and behaviors that allow racism to flourish, both in fandom and in real life.

Support of MXTX Diaspora May will go a long way towards creating a more inclusive and open climate in our shared online spaces, especially for creators who rarely get their voices heard in the English-speaking side of fandom. We aim to uplift the unique voices and stories of our participants, and we encourage anyone who enjoys works from this event to share in the celebration of Chinese culture from Chinese creators.

Any creator with Chinese heritage may participate in MXTX Diaspora May. Event rules and work requirements may be found at the link below.

Please note one major change from last year: all works must be complete at the time of posting. We will not accept works-in-progress into our collection.

Event Rules & FAQ

Our prompts this year are based on 四象, the Four Symbols, also known as the Four Guardians, Four Gods, or Four Auspicious Beasts. You can find an overview of the Four Symbols on wiki.

Sub-prompts for the event will be posted soon.

i just posted but i feel INSANE hua cheng’s entire appearance in the ghost groom arc is just symbolism.

when xie lian is alone (having sent everyone away, in danger but perfectly capable of fighting his way out), hua cheng steps in front of xie lian, offers his hand, and guides xie lian through the woods to where he needs to be. monsters cower before him, magical barriers don’t stop him, he steps on the skulls of enemies and crushes them so thoroughly that xie lian behind him feels like he is walking on flat ground. he doesn’t just swoop in without asking — he offers his hand, and waits, and xie lian willingly reaches out and lets himself be guided. and his grip is featherlight, even as he steers xie lian through danger and darkness. his blood rain warns away all who would dare harm them, but xie lian doesn’t get hit by a drop. and hua cheng does this all in his true form, not in disguise, because he’s not playing a character or trying to achieve anything, this is just him. despite not being confident enough to face xie lian directly, hua cheng has already shown him exactly who he is.

(now excuse me while i gnaw through an entire wall because how was this not glaringly obvious to me all along)

#tgcf #tgcf meta #hua cheng #my hyperfixation demon #hualian #kinda ig #rereading tgcf #goddd #writing this post was a fucking EXERCISE in pronouns #but also. augh. stuff that i think. the translation doesn’t get across. #i checked the eng translation and i think. the english gets preoccupied with the descriptions #and doesn’t get across the very. symbolic atmosphere of the whole thing. for me anyway #like when you’re performing a ritual and you can feel the meaning soaked into every gesture. it hit me when i was reading the chinese #something something orpheus and eurydice. hey. hey that’s a thought. #stuffs that into the back
