*I'm going to be completely normal about Moonlight Chicken. I'm just going to watch and enjoy it. I'm not going to look deeper. I'm not going to think about..*
Moonlight Chicken's Symbolism and Background Noise
Tumblr media
The series has several Chinese influences and begins on September 10, 2022, which an actual full moon fell on that day. It is the Moon Festival also known as Harvest Moon, Mid-Autumn Moon, or Mooncake. It is meant to be spent with others. In the lunar calendar, it's the mid-point of the year. We know this date from Jim's beer.
Tumblr media
The brand of the beer is Full Moon, and he and Wen drink it throughout the first episode.
Tumblr media
Jim and Wen discuss what is normally seen in the moon. Jim sees a woman (which there is legend about a woman and the moon, but it's too much for this space), but Wen states it's a rabbit. A rabbit normally represents the full moon because both symbolize longevity, peace, and prosperity.
Tumblr media
That's why mooncakes are given during this time. They represent well wishes to the receiver and those shared with a long peaceful and prosperous life.
Tumblr media
Ginger, which Wen shared with Jim, also symbolizes longevity as well as passion and strength.
Tumblr media
Jim's green truck's license plate states frog in Thai. Frogs are a symbol of prosperity and good luck.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Li Ming, whose name means (bright) dawn, wears an Ohio State Buckeyes Football Shirt. Buckeyes are a type of nut and symbolize good luck (thanks college football for that nugget of info!).
Tumblr media
However, this show is doing well with subtle foreshadowing, so Li Ming might run into some bad luck with driving (Heart around) without a license.
Tumblr media
We get some foreshadowing with the DVD Wen picks up at Jim's. This movie is about two lovers who meet in Hong Kong after relocating there from other parts of China. Their lives take them on separate paths, only for them to reunite ten years later in America. The ending shows that they actually sat back-to-back on the train ride into Hong Kong over a decade ago. Aka, they were fated lovers.
Tumblr media
Jim has an Idiot's Guide to Starting a Home-Based Business and Reader's Digest collection of books - Dick Francis' Comeback (about a man who gets entangled with a stranger on his route to his new job), Frederick Forsyth's The Deceiver (about a British agent who is set to retire, but one of the main plots is an affair), and Alexandria Ripley's Scarlett (which continues the story of Scarlett and Rhett from Gone with the Wind, who are estranged, but at the end, reunite). *Also, the condom package is amazing. The C of "condom" is actually the condom. I just think it's neat!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wen has Eric Hall's Monster (which is about famous sport agent Eric Hall who was known for being a money monster). This is likely to be Alan's book because the apartment is filled with art, which is due to Wen being an art director. He was also drinking because of his job but didn't state anything specific about the reason.
Tumblr media
Wen and Alan's apartment is more modern, while Jim's is more traditional.
Tumblr media
When Jim and Wen met at the restaurant, it is Saturday going into Sunday. In Thailand, Sunday's color is red, and its unlucky color is blue. However, In China, red represents good luck, and blue represents longevity. We see these colors often around Jim and Wen (scroll back up).
Tumblr media
Jim was shown mostly in or highlighted by red the first episode with Wen in or highlighted by blue.
Tumblr media
Even Jim's aprons are red. They say Hungry? with a little chicken peaking out of the pockets.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We also see the blues and reds around Heart and Li Ming. *peep the elephant tusks which are encasing the family and symbolize power*
Tumblr media
The bottle Heart drops is Snake Bite Whiskey, and a snakebite shot simply consists of whiskey and lime juice aka it hurts like an actual snakebite.
Tumblr media
Modern Thai Sign Language was influenced by American Sign Language (which was greatly influenced by French Sign Language). It seems as if Heart is telling Li Ming his face scared him, but I'm unsure of the last sign since that is not the ASL sign for surprise, scared, or angry. The second portion seems to consist of Heart saying YOUR MISTAKE, but once again, the second sign is different than ASL's mistake because of the breadth of the movement. *I love that this wasn't captioned because it allows the audience to feel Li Ming's confusion and Heart's frustration.
Tumblr media
We end the episode back at night with another shot of the moon. As others have pointed out, the colors at night are more crisp and vibrant compared to the day.
Tumblr media
But based on Li Ming's name, and the symbols, I think Moonlight Chicken is attempting a similar theme as Big Dragon - The Moon and the Sun have to meet at Dawn. These lovers won't work in their current situations. They have to compromise and find balance, which is why they met in the middle of the year. They have to meet in the in-between.

Utada Hikaru - 「Sakura Nagashi」
youtube
開いたばかりの花が散るのを 「今年も早いね」と 残念そうに見ていたあなたは とてもきれいだった
When you stood there and watched Disappointed As the flower petals dropped to the ground You murmured "They fell early this year, too" You looked so beautiful then
もし今の私を見れたなら どう思うでしょう あなた無しで生きてる私を
I wonder What would you think If you could see me now Going through life without you
Everybody finds love Everybody finds love In the end
あなたが守った街のどこかで今日も響く 健やかな産声を聞けたなら きっと喜ぶでしょう 私たちの続きの足音
Today, too The healthy cries of a newborn baby echo in the streets Of the town you once protected If you could hear them now I'm sure you'd be so happy Their footsteps will carry on where ours left off
Everybody finds love In the end
もう二度と会えないなんて信じられない まだ何も伝えてない まだ何も伝えてない
I still can't believe I'm never going to see you again There's so many things I never got to tell you So many things I never got to say
開いたばかりの花が散るのを 見ていた木立の遣る瀬無きかな
Maybe this is how the trees felt As they stood there Helpless Watching their flowers fall to the ground Right after they'd bloomed
どんなに怖くたって目を逸らさないよ 全ての終わりに愛があるなら
No matter how scared I feel I won't look away As long as there's love in the end

Ruby attempts to get a werewolf as her animal/beast companion. She quickly finds herself face down and ass up ... and also can't remember her name.
It was fair to say that Ruby was perhaps a bit too ambitious for her own good. Her dreams of following in her mother’s footsteps as a skilled ranger were nothing to scoff at, of course, but she did tend to rush into things a bit too reckless and headstrong. And when she set her mind to something, it was hard to stop.
As she felt the werewolf’s cock ram hard into her folds, though, she realized that perhaps, for once, she’d bitten off more than she could chew.
Not that the werewolf seemed to care, or that the realization did her much good—nothing she could or would do would get the beast off her as it held her forcibly down, snarling down into her ear as his massive cock bludgeoned her womb over and over again. The heavy slap of his knot on her folds echoing through her body into her mind.
It was so much~ she groaned, arching into the ground, her hands desperately clawing at the grass under her. It was too much, and if she didn’t get the beast to stop, she knew she wouldn’t last much longer. Already, as the panting gasps and cries shifted into moans of pleasure, she knew that she was losing herself. If she could just—
A large clawed hand suddenly gripped her firmly by the back of her head and roughly shoved her face into the grass—she gasped, then screamed as she felt the knot shove past her folds and lock the werewolf tight into her. The beast threw his head back with a howl, and her whole body shook as she felt the massive rod splitting her wide began to pulse, throb, then erupt.
The werewolf snarled, bucking his hips roughly down into the helpless bitch beneath him, more and more of his potent seed filling her. When he finally finished, the hand on her head gripped her firmly by the hair and tilted her back to him. Through the bestial snout, a smirk grew as he saw the lewd, empty, mindless eyes stare back at him, as his prey had lost her mind with his first release.
Chuckling, the beast lifted her off the forest floor, bouncing her steadily on his cock as he walked deeper into the trees—back to his den, and her new home.

its funny that roguelikes get the reputation for being a hard/punishing genre of game when i've always found them oddly comforting. like i can play a roguelike in an absolutely dogshit manner and just be dying constantly and still walk away from a failure and be like "well that's how its SUPPOSED to happen"
