But Wei Wuxian doesn't have self-esteem issues per-se. He has some issues with how he values himself, but that isn't lack of self-esteem. And he's also an absolute idiot when it comes to navigating non-platonic love-related stuff and reading signals lol. This is I think a good analysis of his character:

I got them on Amazon! heres the link

i found something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Untamed-Original-Picture-Memorial-Collection/dp/B08G8CF4R5/ref=pd_sbs_5?pd_rd_w=FnAPF&pf_rd_p=2419a049-62bf-452e-b0d0-ca5b7e35a7b4&pf_rd_r=8EVPS4PHBQP58JMPSF3M&pd_rd_r=2189d545-31fb-4309-b4ae-d04a984b2b75&pd_rd_wg=GQyY9&pd_rd_i=B08G8CF4R5&psc=1

it's a high quality picture book that seems to be real merch because the photos in them are very intricate about even the costuming etc. and they look beautiful. there are many different links on amazon that sell this book. unfortunately, it's in chinese, but photos themselves might be worth it? honestly, i shop on etsy and support small shops that make high quality products. i bought a bunch of beautiful beaded bracelets that i love and remind me of wangxian <3

Ooh, my fountain pen! A Moonman Wancai with blue swirls :) it reminds me of LWJ though the aesthetic is very Lan Clan in general. Random amazon link: czxwyst Moonman Wancai Mini Transparent Pocket-Size Eyedropper Fountain Pen Fine Nib 0.5mm (Daydream) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FDDSZ81

I got mine from eBay though.

The original is in Chinese and/or a light novel I believe. I think these are the translated versions

Surprisingly these aren't comics but I think those are out there too.

Bro I didn’t know there were SE versions! We truly are a spoiled fandom.

On a side note. Does anyone know if Amazon Canada is getting all 3 versions? I checked but they don’t show up. Just the standard. :(

UPDATE: Y’all. You have to manually type out “Special Edition” for it to show up on Amazon SMH. Here’s the link for my fellow horny Canadian’s.Amazon.ca

I looked it up, it gave both versions for me on amazon UK as well

Does this link work?

No it's not ridiculous. It's an actual experienced publisher with experience, it's not a brand new fly by night outfit, or self-published by someone with no sense of design. But the MDZS volume except for the interior illustrations doesn't look like professional work. I'm comparing books to books, and translated books to translated books. And the first time the Verne was translated, it was just a book by that French guy. I have that original translation. And the places where the original translator edited the original text to make the novel more acceptable to the mores of his audience really show.

I also want people to stop excusing sloppy work as 'what do you expect from Chinese to English in a genre' when, say Three Body Problem by Cixin Liu, an SFF genre release originally in Chinese looks a lot better. (not to my taste, but it reads and looks better in English than the Seven Seas translation of MDZS does. go to that Amazon link and check the look inside.) Also genre, but done by people who cared and knew what they were doing. What I got off the Seven Seas package was a sense that no one particularly cared.

Should I resign myself to a life ruled by mediocrity, eternally excused by claims of ‘budget’ and ‘high-school’ and ‘first job’, treating those as reasons that nothing should ever be held to ‘unrealistic standards’? A crowdfunded videogame on a shoestring budget made by three people with no guaranteed audience put more effort into keeping every detail in line with the tone of the world they were crafting than this does. (Hollow Knight, if you're curious.)

It's still better than ER's translation, but that is a really low bar.

I found https://www.amazon.com/Hanfu-Pattern-Making-Imperial-DUONG/dp/B086PMNMKL?asin=B086PMNMKL&amp;revisionId=&amp;format=4&amp;depth=1

And I think you could use the blue and white image on the bottom of that image from the pattern variations, and instead of letting the fabric drape around the shoulders add boning or something to stiffen it and make it stand up like Wen Ruohan's does. Experiment! You may need to cut those bits wider to make it work. But it's closest to the idea I can find.

If you can buy the actual books (the fan translation was removed when they got an official release), I just finished In the Dark by Jin Shisi Chai - link is for book one of two.

It's a modern-day thriller with a slight scifi angle, about a police detective and a forensic sketch artist. Neither is quite what they seem, both are gorgeous with mysterious histories, and there is a delicious tension that builds between them as they work together to solve several very twisty murders. They do get physical but it's all fade-to-black aside from kissing. There is also a manhua but it only covered the first half of the story (the first volume of the two English books) - called In the Dark or Body of Crime. And they made a drama but it hasn't been released yet so who knows if China banned it or what.

On Amazon!

Haven't seen any of season three yet. Or Blu-ray

I got you: srt downloads here. Someone asked for them on r/cdrama a couple weeks ago :D

LOL did your mom like it? I'm having my mom watch it too but she's been busy traveling so I just keep bothering her about it. I got two friends hooked with my plethora of super ~~gay~~ cute gifs xD

Try those, they are very good: ONETANG Assorted Mooncake, 2021 New Mooncake, Double Egg Lotus Seed, Pumpkin Sesame, Five Kernel, Longan Walnut Moon Cake, Mid-Autumn Festival 21.17 Ounce 月饼 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074PRZSZ7

Also look up Asian grocery stores/supermarkets in your area and see if any of the Chinese ones are close drive for you. But honestly mail order ones are pretty good. I can also mail you a fresh one from Boston Chinatown if you pay shipping :)

Amazon!!! This is the 4-pack that I bought! (I only showed the two lol)

But they are really good quality, and cheap!!! I love them so much!

Awesome! And to update on the above info a little bit - not sure you are aware that an official English translation of the novel is finally about to be published, so some of the fan translations I listed may be removed from the internet due to copyrights now being owned by the publisher. Anyway, first volumes of the novel are currently available in preorder, so if you have money to spare and lots of patience to wait - it will be well worth it to get and read a properly researched and annotated translation: https://www.amazon.com/Grandmaster-Demonic-Cultivation-Novel-Vol/dp/1648279198 or: https://www.bookdepository.com/New-License-2-Vol-1-from-Seven-Seas-Entertainment-will-be-announced-Aug-4-Be-Announced/9781648279195

So it's weird, but what I received is an 8 (counted wrong) disc set that looks completely different from the other bad reviews. I can't explain that.

The style feels reminiscent of mid 2000s anime english dubs. Like they recorded the lines in a tunnel or something lol.
