Hi guys! Just finished rewatching. So fun! Here are my Ep.1 Notes and Reactions. I'll put a spoiler tag.
This is the asura info I found based on the image comparison.
*DG 2.0 Golden Male Asura Mahishasura is a bovine asura in Hinduism. He is depicted in literature to be a deceitful demon who pursued his evil ways by shape-shifting. He was a staunch worshipper of Lord Brahma. After years of penace by Mahishasura, Brahma was finally pleased and offered him a wish. Mad with power, Mahishasura demanded immortality. His wish was that he should not be killed by a "man or animal" on the face of Earth. Brahma granted him this wish, and then told him that a woman will be the end of him.
**Hengyang Sect Golden Female Asura(shield) Durga, in Hinduism, is a principal form of the Goddess, also known as Devi and Shakti. According to legend, Durga was created for the slaying of the buffalo demon Mahishasura by Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and the lesser gods, who were otherwise powerless to overcome him. Embodying their collective energy (shakti), she is both derivative from the male divinities and the true source of their inner power. She is also greater than any of them. Born fully grown and beautiful, Durga presents a fierce menacing form to her enemies. She is usually depicted riding a lion and with 8 or 10 arms, each holding the special weapon of one of the gods, who gave them to her for her battle against the buffalo demon. She ultimately killed Mahishasura with her trident.
Durga Puja, held annually in her honour, is one of the great festivals of northeastern India. This celebrates the triumph of good over evil. *** Based on this mythology of the female asura killing the male asura considered as a triumph of good over evil, this is a foreshadowing of the goddess killing the devil god.
Some one is missing Hahaha....not missing her at all, esp after her fans are wrecking the drama.
Haha plus points to the editor for this! ππ Apparently, the rich jiejie who bought the Times Square ad was also pissed at her and her fans for maligning the show so she was not included in that TTEOTM farewell vid. π€ https://twitter.com/Xixiko0728/status/1664294735606067207?s=20
Ahaha, once I heard Youku released the dubbed version, I quickly went to check only the one scene at 25:23LSS…
Eng-dubbed LSS said "No" like she is being offered a paperbag at the check-out counter instead of seeing her father and sect getting slaughtered. Why Youku, why? π€£π€£π€£
Feel free to drop your thoughts here anytime. π

It's good to see many of us still being active here.π
Hooray TTEOTM gang! π€£π€£π€£π
What she and her fans did was to keep maligning the show so that TTEOTM fan choosing not to include her in the farewell vid was right.
