I was blown away by the fight....Imagine watching this fight scenes between CWN and TXJ....I would be overwhelmingly ecstatic, screaming and crying at the sametime...lol

Yes I saw this one....A chinese youtuber covered it and many more about Immortality but all his previous videos got copy rights issues so all were deleted....Many of those videos were very cool reference to various topics and information about cdrama and actors....

They even took too long to air The longest Promise....because the costumes got overshadowed by the new ones like in TTEOTM and the hype between the leads as master and student trope got overdone, so many are calling out the drama for being old and cliché...Even though Im enjoying the drama....somethings are obvious if it aired when it was supposed to like a year and so ago....

Thats the only issue I have with Immortality waiting so long....that many things will be outdated... already waiting about 3yrs then they are say maybe 5 more....omg...

For 3 years and have this stats for an unaired drama...lol...If Immortality ever airs, this summer....All dramas for the summer would get overcast, overshadowed and die..lol....that goes for TLP, LOA, LYF, LCB...etc( these dramas are also on my to watch or watching now list)....Immortality airing would be so huge....1. because of how hugely anticipated it is and 2. The amont of antis it has and attacks it would recieve...

This is my first time watching Ren Min and even I was worried she wouldnt fit as FL for this drama...but in the first episode...she impressed me ngl....shes so adorable and cute, her acting is spot on and I can tell as the drama progress...she will gain character development. I cant believe people called her out for not fitting a certain beauty standard to act with Xiao Zhan...What??? Lol....She is an actress, Zhange an actor???? Does she have to look Goddess, Immortal Empress like to stan next to him???....thats her natural born beauty, not some shaved down jawline or fake nose.....??? If they were talking about her styling alone, I would maybe understand some dont like her hair or makeup,thats fine.. but her actual face... What do they want her to do??? Yes...Cnets unrealistic beauty standard is way out of hand.... lol... Yes I understand Xiao Zhan breathtaking ethereal hamsomesness can make others standing beside him pale in comparison but Ren Min does have her own beauty and charm....people are just so cruel....

What happened on Weibo???

No different actors, this drama will be more censored it seems...not sure as I didnt get a chance to watch it as yet....its categorized as BL though...

I think the official site is Bili Bili comics but follow it on Manuha hot...

That BL drama was" Addicted Heroine"... that got cancelled and taken down at ep.15 with 3 episodes left tgat never aired....lol...
It has gotten a remake, "Stay with Me"....thats airing on international plotforms.

Its censored...similar to The Untamed and Word of Honor....but after all new censorship rules... even if it does get a pass and air....its expected to be even more censored....as many key scenes that were leaked online might be edited out of the drama.

To this day I still dont understand when some said they hate the dream arc, I loved it so much....to see the story about Ming Ye and Sang Jiu...was very beautiful and heartbreaking....plus this story had so much to do with the future episodes....many skipped this arc then complain how things didnt make any sense in rest of the drama🤦‍♂️

Well welcome as there is.... The drama is done, completed, from 2021....now just awaiting release,but because of all the BL rustrictions and ongoing bans, When we will actually get this drama, I have no idea.... but Im following the Manhua also....it helps with waiting....lol...

Yes they are the same ancestors and I have also watch other Taiwan BLs which were cool, many uncensored, but when it comes to BL in my opinion interms of looks... Taiwan doesnt have a luo Yunxi, Xiao Zhan, Chen Feiyu and Wang Yibo etc....even if they do, the ones that act in Taiwan BLs doesn't have that appealing overwhelming beauty....As this is fantasy....if Im gonna watch two men showing love to each other, they might as well be gravitatingly beautiful( note: this view has nothing to do with real life gay lovers as I understand in the real world, love comes in many forms)

Trust me I remember about Taiwan but as I stated before there is something special about mainland actors and their censored BLs...lol.... My favorite BL from Taiwan was We Best Love....I loved that series...lol....Till this day I still listen to its OST...I also love some Thai BL....but im not so invested in those first lets be honest here....the leads are not always visually appealing( in my opinion, Im using the best term possibly as I dont want to be rude)....The Korean ones are cute too but still something is missing.... Japan is where I started so( I have seen some very questionable things from Japan in my lifetime in BL and other anime....ahemm Hentai....) which until a found danmei novels ...via The Untamed....my world found what was missing...lol....Imagine if mainland didnt have so much censorship and we could atleast get these BLs as close with the source material with kisses, hugs and impiled ahemmm senses... probably we wouldnt be here now.....we would have died long ago from nosebleed 😂😂😂.... as we all know about mainland situation against BL....If Taiwan can adapt them and give me the same feeling...
beggars cant be choosers now can they....I would deffinately watch....

Yes the gov are to be blamed for setting up such policies which can be weaponized against anyone or anything. But that doesnt mean they have control over ones thoughts and behaviors.

I also blame Cent as it not one entity.....its made up of so much layers and the competition is so feirce that anyone can use any unhanded method to defeat the other to gain their spot and resources. Directors, critics, producers and actors who hates traffic actors, Bl content, or any idol interferences in the acting scene, tries their best the demean them every chance they get....and this interns is supported by the relevant authorities associated with the gov, as their views are mostly allied with nationalistc arts....

Take for intance what happened to Xiao Zhan that nearly ended his career unjustly.....A CP fan wrote a explicit fanfiction with him and Yibo, Solo fans dont like and report( when they could just dont like , but let it be and avoid as its not for them).... that got gov attention, site got taken down, now fans and users of that site cant blame the gov, but need a face to direct their anger to, knowing that XZ solos did it in his name, he was used as the target enduring one of the worst celeb cyberbullying in China causing brands to cut ties because of all the backlash they got for using him as their promoter....

The point is the gov, would not have did anything then if people just mind their own business and the same person the fans tried to protect , ended up getting even worse in hot water, that the authorities even blamed him as why didnt he control his rabid fanbase....lol....

So other from the gov....there are specific hands who just doesnt want to see these dramas see the light of day, the actors will get alot of traffic, projects, endorsements, overshadows their own actors, dramas, and genre.....so they will continue the reporting, critics and blocking in hopes tgey never see day of light or air when they aren't that relevant anymore....

Similar also with the gun anology....though its the idiot gov...fault for not having control on guns in the country, the one also holding the gun is not blameless as guns by themselves cannot kill, someone is needed to pull that trigger...so its a collective blame....both are guilty in some sense.

How can a casting be so spot on perfect.... When I was watching TTEOTM and how he dressed as poor powerless TanTai Jin... so ethereal, calm, captivating , so weak....I cried as I saw Chu Fei in plain sight....The snow scene where he knelt for days and fainted....just wow!!!....seeing that I really screamed for Immortality airing...😂😂😂....My heart is overwhelmed with anxiety at this moment...like how can one bromancce drama be so difficult to watch....OMG!!!!

Yes I just checked and its relased today and also produced in China and its a remake of Addicted( not sure if its just contain only the bromance or they would go all out or a bit over).... so from what Im hearing is these dramas can still be filmed inside China but will just need to go through censorship if they are to be broadcast in China towards chinese audiences.

So in this case its either our awaited Bls drama China censorship owns them😂😂😂....or the companies just want them released in the Chinese market given the investors and the budget involved in making them...

Other than those, if there no issue, why cant they just stream them internationally and sell the rights to other streaming platforms.

Question is really how does these ones that aired differ from the ones we are waiting on?????
Seems we need a native who knows more about this issue to clarify as Im also a Clown, going with the limited information Im aware of.

I haven't personally seen the remake so ill have to check... If its in fact tge actors are from mainland China and they filmed it in mainland, but airs it some where else...that would be bypassing chinese censorship by under the table means with actors who are not known. Wonder if they are from Taiwan??? That also could explain why Youku BL got pulled from airing and now others in the industry who have completed BL adaptations will suffer the reprecautions also.

Ok so the completed BL adaptations in China is basically chinese owned and without the government approval those cannot be released in or outside of the country.

Companies like Tencent, Qqiyi and Youku have international branches, where they can get the rights to such BL IPs, make the dramas as true to the source material, and release them outside the country. (Not sure if they can also be watched on the Chinese version of these Streaming Apps)....

The difference is the actors wont be from the mainland China nor the filming be done in the country so the government wont have a say in these.... If actors from mainland participate in these BL dramas knowing the ban on them ...lets just say they just signed their retirement from acting in China...lol

Why these are not really practical is the fact the Chinese market would be the most ideal to get investors and also earn huge profits, as its the most lucrative market to see the cash coming in. Many of these BL IPs already have huge fan bases in the mainland plus they would go for actors who are upcoming and have their own fan bases to even cash in more.

When these dramas are made outside China they tends to be lower budget and not well known( plus lets be honest the men are not that hot like actors in China...lol) as the market for them outside cannot even compare to what mainland has to offer....so thats the reason we see these companies try to please CCP in anyway and adhere to the rules and regulation as much as possible in hopes the dramas can air even if it means to edit them down to the bone as the money they can make in mainland no other market can make up for that... Its just business and Capitalism at its finest.

The original Addicted series was made by Tencent and got canceled for how explicit gay its was and the attention it was gaining from the public to the point the actors were not permitted to associate in public.

Didnt even Know Youku had it adapted under a different name and relased it outside....lol

Well if situation around BL adaptations gets even worse than they already seems to be, probably it can happen in the eventual future or so....but who are they gonna cast??? If they are gonna go full on BL with actual kissing and smexy moments....those actors cant be from mainland China, and expect to return home and their career will still be intact....and most American Chinese actors just dont give the same feeling as the actors in mainland China....in my opinion. Or others like S. Korea or Japan may step in and adapt the story according to their own culture and background... For me there is just something special about Chinese BL adaptations esp. The costumes ones wherecl it would be difficult for any other to replicate.... to the point I dont mind the censorship but just not too much that deviates from the plot and OG storyline and the actual subtle references and moments which clearly shows whats the real relationship between the leads...
