More salt in comments...

It's such a nice name. I love it honestly.

That kind of campaign is the exact reason these shows are in hot water now. Also it was unrealistic to think the shows would all come out at once. Most of them are not even done filming!

Ok this is crazy because I was gonna tell you to change your name to redlotuspavillion!

Isn't this your personal prediction?! Literally right this moment, there are wuxia and xianxia shows on air! There's no indication they are going to be banned.
Moreover, while the gov there is not the most logical or sensible, I don’t think closing those toxic supertopics and demoting rapists is really that unusual or an indication that historical shows will be banned for good. That's really jumping to conclusions.
We're all worried but spreading fear based on nothing but personal feelings is just very careless. We have already had stress injected here and we honestly don't need more of that right now.
It's best not to jump to conclusions. We should all remain calm and see how things go. This year is a bit delicate but next year will not be like this.

Most shows do have these as their backbone. The trick is a combination of 1)not mentioning the logic behind it, 2) using other terms for it, or 3) retcon it as a dream at the very end!

For other examples, may I introduce you to the term personal qin player. Which is known to mean male concubine. It's the same here. They won't say what it is, but viewer can figure it out.
Or like using aliens instead of mythological creatures in modern dramas.

We have to wait for them to air to know how they wrote around it! Usually the synopsis are based on the books for these shows so they are not 100% accurate for the show.

I think all three are a bit iffy but almost every show has them, anyway.

Yes? Because if everyone was good that would not make sense. So basically immoral things are done by bad guys. Good guys not so much although smart screenwriters do sneak things around.

I think she was pretty happy at the idea of government productions and like...why?!
That's such a weird reaction. That's going to degrade dramas so much. Idk how many people check out positive political tv dramas but they are near unwatchable.

They're the villains.

I think a lot of people don't know what is actually censored in cdramas. I actually saw list once made by a chinese person who explained each item and it's not what everyone thinks.
As long as there is plausible deniability, basically anything goes.
What is really banned is sxtreme content, that includes any extreme like nudity, violence, same gender relations, whatever, and anti-government propaganda, and historical inaccuracies.
Mythology is fine in costume dramas but not in modern time ones.
Transmigration is officially banned but if they don't call it that and imply it's actually anything else like a dream or a game or a hallucination, then it's fine.

Well, no. After, there was some talk of rumors but those are not discussions...
Yeah, the show is pretty good. It's very short though. Hopefully there will be a second season.

It's self-congratulatory and shows how shameless txj is.

Title. It means the person who kills immortals. The Xian is the same from Xianxia, I think?

Nothing has happened. The last thing we really discussed was how addictive Couple of Mirrors is. and the show's release schedule.

I agree but we can facilitate so those who don't want to see something won't get exposure without their consent. That's why I put it in spoiler and gave warning so people won't have to put up with my salt if they don't want to! lol
It doesn't cost us anything either way. It's like the warning at the beginning of 2ha chapters. Once you know, your reading experience is your own responsibility.

You know what pisses me off? The fact that the stuff with ZW and Alibaba are totally connected to *other* stuff and the banning of supertopics is because of zhao liying's fans who just started a ridiculous, childish petition against WYB of all people and all these people who hate hyx and 2ha for whatever reason, are using these things to go...oh this show is toast!
Like, why?!?!?!?! It's literally not connected to any of these people.
People can be so vicious and secretive about it. Like some people will clearly have a bias against queer content and always be super judgemental about it until a BL show gets popular, then they'll suddenly become big fans and profit from it only to drop their act again once their profiting game dwindles.
It's just so funny to see them talk about the "immoral" ways of the ent business (which sure, smoking is evil. We all know the entertainment industry is extremely dirty and corrupt. It's not news) but then when the conversation is around their favorites, having unhinged fans, illegitimate children, extremely unfair high wages for sh!t roles, being high maintenance and all that is just a cute quirky personality trait.
It's this level of hypocrisy that just really irritates me.

I'm gonna be salty so if you're going to get upset don't read my next comment. I'll put it in as spoiler.

Isn't that the list that was about most anticipated shows? I know people have been talking nonstop about the show these past weeks and it keeps showing up on top ten hashtag lists.
