The end of 2024 has proven that 2025 seems to be a huge year for donghua and I’m gripping everyone to give all these donghua besides just the most popular ones a chance!!!:

Link Click, Yingdu arc: releasing December 27, 2024

Nezha 2, sequel to Nezha 2019 aka Nezha zhi motong jiangshi, confirmed for January 2025

To Be Hero X, likely April 2025 release (I hope people will also support the version with Chinese VAs! 🙏)

Lord of the Mysteries, 2025 summer release—accompanied by more good news: the novel has officially entered the British Library and it will also be translated into English by Yen Press

False Memory, series version, confirmed 2025 release

I am making this post because False Memory just released its new trailer and I am very much so looking forward to it! The series started as an indie short before growing into a bigger thing, much like Fog Hill of Five Elements and The Legend of Luo Xiaohei and Alita’s Trial. We’ve thus been waiting a couple years for news so this is really exciting, especially after it recently got a Twitter account!!

Bonuses:

Ya She, released a couple months ago but late enough into 2024 I’d still love for more people to check it out!

Scissor Seven, another one that’s had its newest season out for a while now, but I assume that for those who have Netflix, it hasn’t been officially English subbed or dubbed yet. We’re also still getting trailers for its game!:

I Am What I Am 2, released Dec 14, 2024 in China!

Reminder that Mo Dao Zu Shi is now on Crunchyroll! They may have removed it from Tencent’s donghua YouTube channel for this, so definitely go support it if you do have Crunchyroll!

Some children’s donghua have also recently released, including news of the new Balala the Fairies season and the other magical girls show, Rainbow Crew! The latter is confirmed for an official release in English.

The Yi Ren Zhi Xia game is also coming soon to global, and Fox Spirit Matchmaker even updated their OP recently after quite a long time of silence.

And speaking of silence, even the long-awaited SVSSS donghua saw some movement recently!?

Now if I could get a confirmed 2025 release for White Cat Legend season 3 (and maybe God Troubles Me and Lie Huo Jiao Chou and Fei Ren Zai and All Saints Street and The Legend of Luo Xiaohei and Wo Jia Dashixiong Naozi You Keng etc…)), I could die a happy man (gender-neutral)—after watching all of these newly released donghua shows and films and seasons, of course ahaha. 🙏

For more news and info on donghua, you can check here:

There’s a bunch of new donghua information in the above document that came from 2024, even though they don’t have official release dates yet! Including but not limited to:

The announcement and PV of Call-Up Girls, based on a baihe manhua

The announcement of a Nirvana in Fire donghua, based on the danmei novel with a famous cdrama adaptation (with the manhua having recently gotten an official English license via Aloha Comics)

Trailer and announcement for 《向火而生》, based on Shui Qian Cheng’s danmei novel Blazing Armour

More announcements for Jing Wei Qing Shang, based on the popular baihe novel

Trailer for The Story of Rong Song, a spin-off of the famous Big Fish and Begonia movie

and many, many more…!

Hope everyone can join me in watching more donghua for 2025!! :D

My SCREAM JAM 2024 entry, Portrait of a Ghost, is now playable!

Arthur Hope is a spirit photographer, able to capture images of the departed with his camera.

At least, that's what he'd like you to believe. After all, any price is worth paying to see a loved one's face again, isn't it?

Unfortunately for him, ghosts just might be more real than he realised...

Featuring:

5k words

Three endings

Some light pointing and clicking

Original soundtrack by Calamanser

An awful protagonist

An adorable ghost

Are there ghosts or something in that vein in Eureka? I'm not sure how you'd go about making a ghost PC, if there's an expectation that players and DMs are drawing from the same "pool" of potential ideas, but "there is some sort of haunting or curse" is one of the most obvious (and also imo most interesting) kinds of mysteries to leverage to make the most of a "secretly urban fantasy" setting. Really hard to prove or even be sure of, but also by its nature easily mined for a wide variety of themes, and leading into further mysteries about "why?"

The Eureka: Investigative Urban Fantasy rulebook deliberately does not give any mention of ghosts, except for like an optional Fear on the Tiers of Fear. When I write adventure modules for Eureka, I try to avoid ghosts as a villain or a factor, personally, because I kind of think that the default cultural idea of a "ghost" is not that interesting, and also because, like, it's also kind of important that some supernatural things in Eureka aren't real. Eureka takes a scientific (note: I did not say "biological") approach to the so-called "supernatural," which does mean that sometimes things just aren't real.

The real "ghosts" of Eureka are actually the vampires. Vampires are ghosts.

None of this is to say that somebody couldn't homebrew a ghost PC or make an adventure module with a ghost, that's why we left the possibility open, but it isn't something that I am personally interested in exploring, at least right now.
