I’m not really digging the art direction, and the direction for the voice acting is also off sometimes. BUT THIS! THIS SCENE! THEY ACTUALLY GOT IT RIGHT!!!
I haven’t translated this part in the novel yet, so here’s a quick translation of what he’s saying in the video:
“Why? Why? Hahaha, why? Yeah, my name is ‘why*.’ In this life, I’m destined to be entangled with such difficult questions.”
*He Gu’s name (何故) means “for what reason?”
The hurt in his voice, the laughter, the helplessness… it was so on-point 🥹
