Danmei and Baihe C Novels and Manhua Officially Licensed in English

Things are getting licensed fast enough that keeping a list like this up-to-date is basically impossible, but I saw someone asking in the tags so I figured I'd try. All titles are danmei unless otherwise noted (very little baihe is licensed so far). I've included Chinese titles, but sometimes publishers change the original titles so much that I can't track them down, apologies. I've hit the link limit on this post so I've had to remove NovelUpdate links, but they're still in the version of this post on Wordpress. Note that Taiwanese titles are not included on this list.

This is everything I know of as of October 24, 2024. There might be more. I tried. Resources used to compile this list: Danmeinews.com; this Carrd, last updated in March 2023; this other carrd last updated October 23 2024; list of danmei with official licenses on NovelUpdates; a similar list on Goodreads; danmei-specific list on Reddit that to my eye looks accurate for the larger publishers but isn't thorough for some of the smaller ones.

Seven Seas:

The full list of danmei novels licensed by Seven Seas is here. The full list of danmei manhua licensed by Seven Seas is here.

These titles are in various stages of publication, from "entire series released" to "license literally announced less than a week ago." As far as I know, all Seven Seas titles are available world-wide, through major distributors and libraries, and in e-book and print formats. Seven Seas translation quality varies but the editing is general strong and the editions are sturdy and nice. Note that Seven Seas isn't without controversy, especially for treating their contractors poorly resulting in them unionizing. Some people have also been unhappy with the fidelity of their translations compared to the original Chinese (I've been satisfied personally but ymmv).

Rosmei:

Rosmei licenses are Singapore distribution rights only. There is a list of international partners organizing group orders here. I've personally placed my orders through Yiggybean, as discussed in reply to this ask. Most of these titles are only being released as print editions, tho titles that weren't originally on JJWXC (of which there are several here) WILL have e-book editions. My first book from Rosmei arrived, and I found the translation and editing to be very strong. I can't speak to how accurate it may be to the Chinese original, but it read smoothly and had very few errors. Overall, though they've made some mistakes, they've been communicative and responsive.

Peach Flower House:

Peach Flower House titles are primarily for sale through their website and through some distributors, such as Amazon.com. Whether titles are e-book only, print only, or both varies by title. In my opinion, Peach Flower House has inconsistent inconsistent editing quality, but the books are very readable, and I'm excited that they're working with translators such as E. Danglars. I haven't bought any of their special editions so can't speak to their extras, but I've bought all their print translations and will continue to do so going forward.

Da Feng Gua Guo:

The Imperial Uncle (Huang Shu)

Peach Blossom Debt (Taohua Zhai)

Other Titles:

Golden Terrace (Huang Jin Tai) by Cang Wu Bin Bai

In the Dark (Zai Hei An Zhong) by Jin Shisi Chai

Little Mushroom (Xiao Mogu) by Shisi

University of the Underworld (Yinjian Daxue) by Ziloi

Via Lactea:

The partial list of danmei novels licensed by Via Lactea is here, but there are titles I've seen them selling that aren't on this list.

Via Lactea titles are primarily for sale through their website and through some distributors, such as Amazon.com. All titles are either print-only or e-book + print. Only a handful have actually been released, the rest are licensed and presumably in progress. I've now read three titles published by Via Lactea and while the translations are decent I could wish the editing was more consistent. Everything reads as if it would have been improved by one more thorough proof read.

Salad Days (Jing Jiu)

Silent Hearts (Mo Mai)

Aloha Comics:

A tiny, Hawaii-based press focusing on manhua. Titles are available through major retailers such as Amazon and Bookshop.org. I've purchased one of these titles - Nirvana in Fire - and was please with the quality despite a couple minor errors.

All these titles are manhua!

Day Off by Qing Cai

-

Monogatari Novels:

Monogatari Novels is based in Spain. These titles can also be ordered from at least some major retailers. Note that there has been some controversy about Monogatari Novels. I'm personally not ordering these works until more information is available.

BAIHE: A Clear and Muddy Loss of Love (Jing Wei Qing Shang) by Please Don't Laugh

BLoved Publishing:

ngl I can't figure out exactly what is up with this, and there seems to be some controversy related to them and their relationship with Monogatari Novels. Their website is depressingly low on details. However, this list is for completeness, so here we are. I'm not ordering from them based on the information currently available. There's more about the conflict between them and Monogatari here.

Chaleuria:

As far as I can tell, Chaleuria has not updated their webpage since April 2023, so the current status of in-progress titles is unknown. All titles are digital and/or e-book, and I'm not sure how to purchase them as I haven't tried.

Webnovel:

When I first made this list, I heard that Webnovel had a few titles but couldn't actually find them - but now I've found them, thanks to a list someone else put together. I'm including direct links to them, since I had so much trouble finding them at all.

Comrade: Almost a Cat-astrophic Love Story (Jintian ye Yao Nuli Dang Zhimao) by Demonic Fire (link)

My Boyfriend is a Dragon (Nanpiao Shi Tiaolong) by Chubby Strawberry Sauce (link)

The National Sweetheart Livestreamer is a Pro! (Quanmin Zhubo Shi Duiba) by Mo Shang Wang (link)

-

Honorable Mentions:

There are a handful of titles I know of that are official translations of C Novels. These are not books with contextual queerness, but for folks with an interest in Chinese history and culture, they are worth checking out anyway, especially because understanding these stories can help understand the above books. Also, some have active shipping fandoms (for example, I've written for Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Daomu Biji). I've included two above under the entry for titles from Aloha Comics (Link Click and Nirvana in Fire) and here are a couple others I currently know of:

Dream of the Red Chamber (Hong Lou Meng) by Cao Xueqin, available in translation for free from Project Gutenberg

The Grave Robbers’ Chronicles (Daomu Biji) by Nanpai Sanshu (six volumes are available in English from Things Asian Press)

Journey to the West (Xiyou Ji) by Wu Cheng-en, in four volumes from University of Chicago Press

The Legend of the Condor Heroes (She Diao Yingxiong Chuan) by Jin Yong, in four volumes from St. Martin’s Press

Romance of the Three Kingdoms (Sanguo Yanyi), attributed to Luo Guanzhong, available in translations for free from Archive.org

The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants (Zonglie Xiayi Chuan), attributed to Shi Yukun, available in translation for free from Archive.org

Water Margin (Shuihu Zhuan) by Shi Nai’an, from Tuttle Publishing

RESOURCE: List of Chinese speculative fiction in English translation

RESOURCE: More Chinese speculative fiction in English translation

I will add to the "Honorable Mentions" list if I find any other more mainstream titles with official translations.

Rumored Licenses:

Sometimes, I hear rumors about titles being licensed before the license is announced - and thus before we know which publisher has licensed them (assuming the rumor is even true). I thought I should note these somewhere. Titles I know of rumors about currently are:

A Certain Someone (Moumou) by Mu Su Li

Devil Venerable Also Wants to Know (Mozun Ye Xiang Zhidao) by Cyan Wings

The Fourteenth Year of Chenghua (Chenghua Shisi Nian) by Meng Xi Shi

Guide on How to Fail at Online Dating (Wanglian Fanche Zhinan) by Jiang Zi Bei

Immortal Koi is Going to Debut (Jinli Daxian Yao Chudao) by Mo Xi Ke

Mist (Bowu) by Wei Feng Ji Xu

-

A handful of other licenses are mentioned on the Carrd I linked at the beginning of this post; I have no idea the status of those titles and wasn't able to find information on them while putting together this post other than what was listed on that Carrd, so I've omitted them.

Now go forth, and buy some books!

[stardust-falling]

For your consideration:

The original Mobei-jun may or may not have actually wanted to get rid of OG!SQH. Mobei-jun strongly values loyalty, after all, and SQH had served him faithfully ever since he became a spy for the demon realm. The reason that Mobei-jun got rid of him in PIDW was due to Luo Bing-ge's takeover of the three realms and the destruction of Cang Qiong Shan and the other sects, not because of any betrayal on Shang Qinghua's part.

But why get rid of him? It wasn't as though he could defect, after all. Why wouldn't Mobei-jun just let him go, or even keep him as a servant, since he valued loyalty and Shang Qinghua remained loyal to his king?

Simple.

What if Mobei-jun didn't make that decision?

What if Bing-ge did?

Shang Qinghua might have been loyal to Mobei-jun, but Mobei-jun was loyal to Bing-ge, and if Bing-ge didn't want a former peak lord of Cang Qiong Shan left alive, then... well, Mobei-jun wasn't going to disobey that order.

Just a thought.

Welcome to the 'Best Character with [X] surname' polls!

This is where I take several characters from different Chinese media (mostly cnovels and cdrama) and run a poll on which one is the 'best'. What does best mean? It's up to you! Whether you love them, are intrigued by their characters, love to hate them, or they're your '2 second blorbos whose personality you made up wholesale', these are all reasons for you to vote for your favs!

NB: the surnames are not exactly the same in all the cases, as often they will be a different character. I am, however, grouping them all together otherwise things got more complicated.

If you can't find a surname, it's because I couldn't find enough candidates (at least 3 from 3 distinct medias) to compete. Feel free to submit candidates!

I will be posting several polls at a time, so do come back and check this masterpost to remember which polls are ongoing, who the winners are, and who's coming up next!

Finished polls: Xing/Rong/Nan/Ren/Pan/Qu/Fu/Sui/Tan/You/Sima/Xuan/Chang/Xun/Shangguan/Jian/Qian/Shu/Xi/Yuwen/Cai/Sha/Yin/Ceng/Helian/Zeng/Lou/Mi/Ji/Ping/Tong/Tuoba/Ge/Murong/Hei/Niu/Tao/Si/Pang/Zi/Gongsun/Mao/Qing/Lian

is there any fic where Shang Qinghua just poured amnesia convenient-plot herb/glitter/whatever on Shen Jiu.

But this gets out of his control (naturally) and Shen Jiu ends up continuing his cultivation in some unknown mountain. Like nature and nurture and Shen Jiu's nature is wanting to be left the fuck alone and how convenient inedia is without heart demons and oh look at materials for crafts he'd done a thousand times now it's a great thing it's conveniently just personal memories he'd forgotten and he can carve this stone into a bowl with qi or just poor Xiu Ya rendered to make a pestle to make paint oath of loyalty what he goes full 'start his own personal civilization', you know those youtubers who camp out in the wild and make convenient things out of nature, and he may swing by a town for a tanghulu or two dozens and novels. From tragedy to slice of life.

Meanwhile, in Cang Qiong Shan Pai.....

[mxtxfanatic]

Nan Chan for the ask game, please, if I'm not too late....

Favorite Character: well—as said before—Cang Ji and Jing Lin, equally

Favorite Arc: I haven’t read the novel all the way through in over a year, but the arc right after they leave the mountain has a special place in my heart

Character I Think is Underrated: fandom not big enough to have “underrated” characters, but Fu Li should’ve gotten more screen time than her brother

Character I Think is Overrated: fandom not big enough to have “overrated” characters, but absolutely fuck Zui Shan Seng

Favorite Ship/Pairing: JiLin (shocker lol)

Something I Love About the Book: how obsessed Jing Lin and Cang Ji are with each other despite having no clue who they are, how it blurs the lines between feelings of love, desire, and cannibalism

Rambling About a Show (02/09/2023)

⚠️SPOILER?!⚠️

😭 The last like five or so episode had me bawling so hard.

I seriously love how Orchid and Dongfang Qing Cang/Moon Supreme/Big Blockhead went from ‘don’t fall in love with me I like someone else’ and ‘there is no love between us’ to ‘I love you so much that I will sacrifice myself just so that you may live on’. 🥺 They were both willing to go through hell just to prove how real the love is. They didn’t care that they’re from rival realms. I felt a little heartbroken when it was revealed that Lady Arbiter was banished for falling in love with someone she wasn’t supposed. Poor Orchid was told that her master was traveling the world. They didn’t tell her the truth. However, it’s good to know that Moon Supreme and Orchid weren’t the only ones that had a forbidden love. Not only Lady Arbiter but also Li Yuan falling in love with and having children with a woman from the Moon Tribe. That was a twist I wasn’t expecting. Also can’t forget about the time Moon Supreme threatened to invade and conquer  Shui Yun Tian and also get rid of anyone who dared to bully or harm Orchid. That was extra, but very like him. Well, the beginning version of him. Thanks to Orchid he slowly becomes more compassionate, understanding, patient, and loving. 

Another thing is I ended up becoming more interested in Shan que and his budding relationship with Jie li. Poor Jie li felt she didn’t deserve his love because she was deceiving him. Granted she was doing it to survive because her heart was poisoned. Also, finding out she is one of the daughters of Li Yuan was a bit of a shocker. Wasn’t too surprised though. Especially when they showed Li Yuan’s secret about Dan yin. I thought Shan que proposing and Jie li saying yes was the most adorable scene. The way he lifted her up and spun her around out of happiness. So, of course I was heartbroken when at one point she said it was all fake and a lie. She only said that because of her circumstances. I’m glad that these two sorted everything out in the end.

Rong hao... I felt he was a shady character. However I didn’t expect him to be the Lord of Haishi. He had his reasons, but that doesn’t excuse his actions or his behavior. Also, not sure if his feeling for his master was familial or romantic. That wasn’t very clear. I mean, he did mention that he would do anything to bring back his master. Who happens to be the former God of War Lady Chidi. 

As I was watching this, I couldn’t side with the fairy realm at all. The way most of them treated Orchid, before she risked her life to save them during the Immortal Examination was heartbreaking. Not only that but I thought it was extreme that they wouldn’t allow interracial marriages or love. Another thing that has been on my mind is why did Dongfang Qing Cang say he was the one who killed the Xilan people? Because if I remember correctly that was Rong hao’s fault because he was looking for the Goddess Xiyun. Because she was the only one that could bring Lady Chidi back to life. Which she turned out to be Orchid in disguise for that very reason.

I was living for all the silly parts between Orchid and Dongfang Qing Cang. When Orchid had to sacrifice herself I cried so hard. Also when Moon Supreme broke her heart just so that she would stop loving him. Because that was the only way for the Bone Orchid bracelet to be removed. That scene alone was hard to watch without crying. Then there’s the fact that she chose him over Lord Chang heng. Another scene that had me crying. Listen, this show had me all sorts of emotional from beginning to end. I loved every bit of it. 

I forgot to mention that I love the duality of Dongfang Qing Cang and Orchid when they switch bodies. Because it's absolutely hilarious how he can go from stoic and stern to silly and adorable. Then Orchid goes from silly and adorable to stoic and stern. 🤣 It's just fantastic.

Would like to change this because I thought more on this headcanon and it's not quite right now compared to what my mind had ironed out. It's just not gonna work for me if the Qing were new new lords, because disciples generations and whatever, you know. I'm mixing my headcanons in.

So it's around 50 years since Shen Jiu arrived on Cang Qiong.

Maybe 4 years as an inner disciple, never went in as an outer disciple (I mention this because I'm writing a headcanon about how Cang Qiong works but more on that later), then was named succeeding disciple AS a head disciple (a head disciple isn't necessarily a succeeding disciple, so one could be named head disciple as a test run but that wasn't the case for SJ), and then a couple of years up to 15 years learning the ropes and actually establishing himself simultaneously in and out the sect, and then an additional 10 years performing the Peak Lord duties and taking disciples of their own and functioning as Peak Lords in all but name as their shizuns settle their matters in the mortal world.

(SJ was an introvert through and through and spent as little time around other people, either in the library or, eventually taking on missions, (even his shizun was held at arms length, yes, because SJ was not trusting and there was the nagging thought that his shizun might get annoyed, or get fed up with him, or spot a mistake, it's just easier to be out of sight, out of mind, which means you won't get hurt- ANYWAYS its a whole dive into his thought process), so he was not well known to others before and being named Qingqiu was what got others noticing him- usually the other way around with disciples being renowned before being promoted. You can imagine this caused some problems.)

The Qing generation -of which SJ is the youngest only because it works for my headcanon timeline. After all, SJ'promotion is supposed to be rushed and I like him constantly on edge and unbalanced- steps up to their seats 6 years give or take before the fight with Tianlang-jun, of which 5 of their sibling lords die.

(two birds with one stone for the Palace Master, and there might have been some extra shady stuff too, to get them on the front lines immediately. I imagine YQY was even delayed from the battlefield due to a problem with communications and coordination that's later excused by urgency and panic.)

And then I'd say Tianlang-jun is already sealed under his mountain by the time Su Xiyan gets away, and all epic fights have to be pretty long and TLJ is epic so let's say it was a few months long of fights with the Jianghu powerhouses, especially since he didn't know Su Xiyan was pregnant and there's also the poison debacle of which we can conveniently shorten or lenghten the time Luo Binghe was inside his mom's tummy, so 15 years or so later Luo Binghe comes to Cang Qiong Shan Pai.

Writing this all down for my own purposes too

Just a thought that Tianlang-jun was sealed around 14-15 years before start of canon, and I don't get the impression that the Qing generation has only been active for less than a decade, idk I'd think at least 50 years, so they're almost def the ones who fought against Tianlang-jun with the other sects. What I'm getting at, is that could be the reason we haven't met the other Peak Lords is because they'd perished in that fight, going hand in hand with headcanon that the Peak Lords step up together or not at all, so those Peaks would have to remain empty till the next gen as per tradition, and the remaining PL takes over the responsibilities for those - like picking head disciples (It's not a situation unique to this generation though).
