The amount of alpha energy I see in these two is basically unmatched.

Wait hang on, wasn’t that the actual subtitle?

“That sci-fi-time-travel-something show where you think you know who is the reckless dumbass between the two boys until you watch the last episode and realise the smartass is actually a way bigger reckless dumbass.”

— Link Click in a nutshell, in case anyone needs a summary

[my-otp-list]

Not gonna lie, I think after season 1, the team behind Link Click probably be like:

“Guys we have 2 years to give them season 2. We must somehow come up with the dopest sci-fi thriller mystery sh*t. And let’s spend half of those 2 years to create literally the most mind-boggling opening in the history of China.

And don’t forget we have to end the season with A VERY LOUD BANG.”

TL;DR: Link Click season 2 is so good I can’t even 🤯

Okay honest question: which devil should I sell my soul to to ensure that these two beautiful characters will have more screen time together in season 2?

(and don’t get me started on how romantically charged this scene is)

“That’s the point. No nightingales.”

— the most painfully poetic thing I’ve ever heard in my entire existence as a fangirl.

If you are walking around Tumblr and you see an ugly crying creature curling up in the corner, chances are it’s me having withdrawal from the last episode of Good Omens season 2.

What I actually want to say is, David Tennant’s performance in that scene is so brilliant I really, truly, seriously can’t stop thinking about it.

Recent Chinese dramas with a nonchalant MC who just wants to slack off (but fails), gorgeous men being best bros, marvellous fighting scenes, and a heck lot of chaos: A comparison.

Upper Left Quadrant: These are the struggling gems, the pieces kneecapped by a lack of funding -- or, worse, funding pulled midway. Their dreams are big, but their wallets are empty.

Upper Right Quadrant: Here all prestige television lies. Is it award season bait or just a bunch of pretentious mumbling? Shh, enjoy the cinematography and costuming. Keep tissues on hand.

Lower Right Quadrant: Home of the gorgeous nonsense. Don't worry about making sense when you have exquisite vibes. Casts of thousands in amazing outfits. Zero thoughts head empty.

Lower Left Quadrant: DMBJ.

(I have included a blank grid template beneath the cut in case you'd like to have your own c-drama opinions.)

Apart from the fact that OP and I seem to have watched the exact same shows, I gotta say this statement

“LOWER LEFT QUADRANT: DMBJ”

is the absolutely most correct thing I have heard this whole year 😂😂😂

I know only a few people remember Psych Hunter and no one remembers the original novel that Psych Hunter is adapted from (btw it’s called Xiongzhai Biji — or Haunted Houses Handbook). Personally, I even thought that the franchise went dead.

But voila, today, out of freakin’ nowhere, another drama based on Xiongzhai Biji just got aired on Tencent. And this drama even gets to keep the same name as the novel!

Also apparently this time, they promise they will stick more closely to the novel and not anyhow insert a just-for-the-sake-of-cheap-romance female lead *shoot a deadly glare at Psych Hunter*.

Bromance fans, horror fans, supernatural fans, I have no idea if this drama will be good or bad (to be safe, I’d say let’s just keep our expectations not too high), but I really need to shout to y’all about it:

(For anyone keen to know a bit more about Xiongzhai Biji: About the novel | Artist illustrations of the characters)

To commemorate me finishing the first Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (and totally planning to play the next one), there are 3 things I want to shout out:

- Never would i have thought that i’d start such a long-a** game franchise because of a random post i saw under a tag completely unrelated to that game (to the OP who says that all T&B fans should check this out, i now totally see why. so, thank you!).

- And never would i have thought this particular game would turn out to be pretty darn addictive and filled with such quirky, memorable characters. and, oh my, those are some of the most amusing in-game dialogues ever!

- But also very importantly, never would i have thought a game could contain that much, ahem, BL subtext. ah no, i mean, literal text 😂.

So I heard many people hope that Ji Chen and Ji Xiaobing will revise their roles as Hei Xiazi and Xiao Hua in Reunion: Mystery of The Abyss’ sequel?

I totally get it. Coz I’m also one of those people 😀. Ji Xiaobing is really the Xiao Hua I didn’t see coming, and Ji Chen has been fantastic since Tomb of The Sea.

In any case, NPSS posted the sequel’s first poster today (and no, we don’t know anything about the cast yet). I shall not try to remind y’all just how many DMBJ dramas and movies are queuing up in the line by now - I’m sure we’re all very lost 🤣. I guess let’s just do the DMBJ tradition: sit back and wait for all these adaptations to drop down from the sky, without any warning whatsoever (￣▽￣).

So we’ve seen plenty of those wedding rings. And then there are these white suits……

I know that by now, there isn't really any point counting the When Are They Getting Married™ moments between these two because they're already married that's why but ain't this the softest conversation ever...
