lol, we're living in a world that is actively dealing with the environmental consequences and broader concerns…
telling people to “just stop watching” because they criticized one aspect of the show is such a lazy response. if the production team made a choice that people genuinely disagree with, then people are going to talk about it. that's how public media works. you don't get to decide that only praise belongs in the comment section.
you can love the plot. you can love the actors. you can think the series is unique. you can think the entire team worked incredibly hard. none of those things make the use of AI immune from criticism.
people aren't obligated to give something a higher rating just because a lot of work went into it. effort deserves recognition, but criticism is still valid. if anything, dismissing every concern as “AI police” instead of actually engaging with the criticism is far more unproductive than the comments you're complaining about.
lol, we're living in a world that is actively dealing with the environmental consequences and broader concerns surrounding AI, the comment section is honestly disappointing. the fact that people are acting as if criticizing the use of AI automatically means someone is “polluting” the comment section is ridiculous.
you can watch a series, appreciate the story, acknowledge the amount of work the cast and crew put into it, and still criticize the decision to use AI. those things are not mutually exclusive. enjoying a piece of media does not mean you are required to blindly defend every production choice made by the people behind it.
and no, this isn't about “normalizing” AI or trying to ruin the series for everyone. people are allowed to have concerns about how AI is being used in creative industries, especially when it involves replacing or affecting actual artists, designers, writers, editors, or other creative workers. there are also environmental costs associated with the infrastructure needed to develop and run these systems. pretending those concerns don't exist just because you like the series doesn't make them disappear.
Shared Universe, Fate Chooses You refer back to character and thing in A moment but forever
no, actually. Fate Chooses You happens first. A Moment But Forever is set a myriad of years AFTER Fate Chooses You, not before. i hope this clears the confusion xoxo
Shared Universe, Fate Chooses You refer back to character and thing in A moment but forever
Fate Chooses You happens first. A Moment But Forever is set roughly 10,000+ years after, when everything has already ended and the War Ghost Clan is just a sealed legend.
A moment but Forever was many years before, as an ancient story.
It’s not just a simple ‘they were defeated’ situation—the War Ghost Clan was systematically wiped out by the Gods.
The Heavenly Realm carried out a full genocide because the clan threatened divine order.
The survivors were cursed with the Five Deficiencies, where they will be cursed leaving them unable to feel see colors, pain, taste, or emotion. To break this curse and save the clan, they must undergo five brutal life-and-death trials of transformation.
and like i said by that time, the war ghost clan has become a legendary "ancient evil" that was sealed away ages ago. the "God’s Left Hand" that Yuan Zhong has is the literal artifact used to suppress the clan's power following the era we are watching right now in Fate Chooses You.

oh no, actually A Moment But Forever take place after the events of Fate Chooses You
A Moment But Forever takes place roughly 10,000 years AFTER these events. by that time, the war ghost clan has become a legendary "ancient evil" that was sealed away ages ago. the "God’s Left Hand" that Yuan Zhong has is the literal artifact used to suppress the clan's power following the era we are watching right now in Fate Chooses You.
Sun from another star is part of season 2. Season 2 had 3 storylines each with 8 episodes. Besides upon the Sky…
the series is technically a multi-arc series. while season 1 follows a standard drama format where multiple couples' stories happen at the same time, season 2 shifts into an anthology format.
‣ is it a sequel? yes, season 2 is the direct sequel to season 1, continuing within the same universe and friend group.
‣ is it an anthology? yes. season 2 is split into three distinct, self-contained stories (arcs).
‣ what is "the sun from another star"? it is not a separate sequel; it is simply the second arc (specifically episodes 9–16) of season 2, focusing on the couple arthit and daotok.
watching order: you don't strictly have to watch season 1 to understand the specific plot of the sun from another star, as the arc has its own beginning and end. however, watching season 1 first is recommended because that is where the entire friend group is introduced and their dynamic is established.
think of season 2 as a collection of three mini-series. the sun from another star is just the middle chapter. it’s part of the same show, just focused on a different couple.
so he's the crown promce as well as grand prince right? thats why they use my royal highness?
Grand Prince Yi An is not the Crown Prince. The original Crown Prince was actually his older brother, who later became the king. After that king (the child king’s father) died in a fire incident, the throne passed to his young son, making the current king a minor.
Because the king is still a child and cannot rule on his own, Yi An steps in as the Royal Regent—which basically means he is the acting ruler of the country until the young king comes of age.
So even though Yi An is “just” a Grand Prince by title, his position as regent gives him real governing authority.
He handles court decisions, state affairs, and overall leadership of the kingdom. In simple terms, he is the one running the palace and the nation, while the child king holds the official title.

So basically, it is somewhat a prequel of AMBF
