Marry My Dead Body

Movies watched in 2023

Marry My Dead Body (2023, Taiwan)

Director: Cheng Wei Hao

Writer: Cheng Wei Hao & Sharon Wu (based on a story by Lai Chih Liang

Mini-review:

I had so much fun watching this! I feel like the movie's tonal shifts and mixtures might be a bit too jarring for some people, but they worked perfectly for me. Most of the comedy lands pretty well, and the dramatic moments strike a nerve. There are even some effective jump-scares here and there! But the thing that takes the film to the next level is the acting. Greg Hsu and Austin Lin deliver flawless performances that really draw you in. People expecting a full-on gay romance will be disappointed, cause that's not what the story is about at all, but the chemistry between these two actors is fantastic and energetic. The directing is also dynamic and keeps you on the edge of your seat. That being said, the movie is not perfect. It tends to represent gay people in a way that feels somewhat stereotypical, and I think it could have delved much more into the social issues it addresses. I know the film has the best of intentions, but yeah, it could still be better in that regard. Anyway, Marry My Dead Body is a very fun experience, filled with humor, drama, action and great performances.

Summary:

American Born Chinese tells the story of teenager Jin Wang (played by Ben Wang), a son of Chinese immigrants, who for the most part is a typical high school kid. He collects manga, tries to join the soccer team, and is on a journey dealing with his own identity as he tries to figure out who he is. One day, Wei-Chen (Jimmy Liu), an exchange student, arrives at Jin's school. Unlike Jin, Wei-Chen didn't grow up in America, is loud and open by nature, and doesn't exhibit Jin's self-doubt and insecurities. At times, this causes Jin to feel embarrassed being associated with Wei-Chen.

Wei-Chen is revealed to be the son of Sun Wukong (portrayed by Daniel Wu), commonly known as the Monkey King, a legendary figure in Chinese literature. Wei-Chen had a dream that the mythical Fourth Scroll can stop an uprising against Heaven. The dream also told him that an ordinary teenager is destined to aid him in his search. So Wei-Chen stole his father's magical staff and is now, disguised as a high schooler, searching for the scroll in earthly California, convinced that Jin is the ordinary teenager from his prophetic dream.

[mademoiselle-red]

Zhuge Liang checks off pretty much everything I love in a character:

美 beautiful: the historical record describes him as tall and good looking

强 powerful: In his youth he led his lord on a path to victory against all odds with his unparalleled brilliance. After his lord’s death he became the absolute ruler of the Shu Kingdom, the hand behind the throne, the menace to a neighboring kingdom five times his size

惨 tragic: He died at the age of fifty-seven on his final military campaign, dragging his sick and broken body to campaign after campaign all to fulfill a promise to his long dead king. 出师未捷身先死，长使英雄泪满襟

Charismatic: His colleagues loved him, his enemies admired him, and his people worshiped him (literally, in some places). For example, Sun Quan, King of Wu, said he was“extraordinarily graceful” after his diplomatic mission to the Wu.

Confidence: This man had absolute confidence in his own brilliance and he wasn’t wrong

Ambitious: His life goal was to conquer all of China (“restoring the Han dynasty”) and ruling over it as prime minister

Strong sense of responsibility: After the death of his king, the entire weight of the Shu Kingdom fell on Kongming’s shoulders and slowly crushed him to death.

Ruthless: He (unsuccessfully) advised Liu Bei to just take the lands of his relatives instead of trying to uphold loyalty towards them. He successfully convinced Liu Bei to kill his adopted son Liu Feng for failing to aid Guan Yu (which led to Guan Yu’s death) using the argument that Liu Feng would challenge his power after Liu Bei’s death. He ordered the death of his last remaining childhood friend who he had loved like a little brother because the childhood friend screwed up his military campaign and Zhuge Liang needed to make an example of him.

Repressed: For the sake of his kingdom, he consistently set aside his love for his family (the brother who served the Wu Kingdom, the sister in the Wei Kingdom who was murdered by Liu Bei’s attacking army) and close friends (Ma Shu, the childhood friend who loyally followed him all the way from Jing Zhou to the Shu Kingdom to the northern campaign, only to be beheaded on his orders). But we know from his remaining personal letters that he cared deeply about them and mourned their losses.

A Tortured Soul: He really beat himself up over the fact that he failed to conquer a land five times the size of his country and thus failed to fulfill his and Liu Bei’s shared dream of restoring the Han Empire

DRDT Père Noël AU

idk how to describe this, evillious is my special interest and drdt is a hyperfixation, let's just go

i've also tried making this intelligible for people who aren't familiar with evillious as well... at least i hope so

Apocalypse - The Predecessors

In resistance to the highly oppressive government of Hope's Peak Kingdom, Mai Akasaki founds the organisation Apocalypse. She intends for them to take radical action against the government, with minimal harm to civilians. An early recruit is one David Chiem. He is a Ghoul Child, created by a certain scientist from another world, Charles Cuevas. David is less concerned with the safety of civilians, and gradually starts gaining more control within the organisation. Eventually, he's able to expel Mai from it entirely, becoming its new leader. He's known by the public as "the Master of Malice". Mai begins trying to prevent Apocalypse's harm, with little success.

Other members of Apocalypse include fellow Ghoul Child Veronika Grebenshchikova. She is highly skillful with magic and is known as "the Witch of Merrigod". She also serves as David's right hand man. Ace Markey is a Ghoul Child too, but is only in Apocalypse briefly. Xander "Red Fiend" Matthews and former priest Nico "Black Baron" Hakobyan are the leaders of Apocalypse's two armies. Hu Jing is not a formal Apocalypse member, but occasionally assists them as she is a friend of David.

Hope's Peak Catastrophe and End of Apocalypse

cw: brief mention of pregnancy and miscarriage

Hope's Peak is aware of their imminent doom and so they set in motion "Project MA", to reincarnate The God of Luck in a human form. In its first iteration, Mai Akasaki is selected as Divine Mother, as her magic is powerful and her past with Apocalypse is not publicly known. She miscarriages. The next attempt is of Veronika Grebenshchikova, who Charles Cuevas helps hide the identity of. She successfully births a child, but not a divine one.

In a final attempt, four candidates are left: Hu Jing, noblewoman J Rosales (her magic isn't all that powerful but is considered thanks to her family's bribery), Ace's sister Eden Markey, and Eden's fiancée Teruko Tawaki. In order to guarantee the spot, Eden kills Hu and J. Teruko, knowing Eden will soon turn on her as well, holds a ritual so that the God of Luck reincarnates directly to her rather than needing to birth it. This fails, so much so that the entirety of Hope's Peak Kingdom is burnt to a crisp. Only two survive.

Teruko is pitied by the God of Luck, whose soul fuses with hers, granting her immortality. Charles finds Eden dying and gives her a dog/cat-like body so that at least this one Ghoul Child will live on. He himself dies shortly afterwards. In this new form, Eden can temporarily possess people and use them as vessels.

Teruko is directionless, but when she realises Eden's fury at her and vow to enact revenge, she decides to dedicate her now infinite time to preventing Eden's evils.

Père Noël

(yes, finally, what this was supposed to be about in the first place but i got sidetracked in backstory-)

Decades pass. Inspired by the Apocalypse of old, Eden, now going by the surname Tobisa, founds the organisation Père Noël along with her newly appointed apprentice Arei Nageishi. Its members are as follows:

1st, Santa Claus - Eden Tobisa

The founder and leader. She utilises a vessel similar in appearance to her original form. In her day life she is a well-respected businesswoman in Avenir city.

2nd, Dealer - Arturo Giles

Handles smuggling of goods. Comes from a family which used to be of lower nobility. Joined Père Noël for the money. In his day life, he is his wife Rose's manager.

3rd, Sleep Princess - Rose Giles (maiden name Lacroix)

Handles poisons. Was aware of Père Noël for some time before joining due to her husband, but only joined when Shadow offered her a position. In her day life, she is a somewhat successful painter. A common motif in her art are dolls.

4th, Shadow - Arei Nageishi

Handles espionage. Miss Santa's apprentice and co-founder of Père Noël. Her origins and background are unknown. She's only informed of the basics of Miss Santa's motives and enemy.

5th, Pierrot - Whit Young

Handles assassinations. Miss Santa deeply trusts him and treats him as if he were her son. Publicly he is stated to be her nephew whom she adopted after him being orphaned. In his day life he is a student.

6th, Venom - Levi Fontana

The "cleanup guy". In his day life he is the assistant to Miss Santa. Joined Père Noël out of admiration for her.

7th, Magician - "Nikki Udacha" (Teruko Tawaki)

Handles magic. Took on this disguise to infiltrate the organisation, however she is not very cooperative. She's body-swapped with a descendent of Veronika Grebenshchikova and so Miss Santa does not recognise her.

8th, Sniper - Min Jeung

Handles guns and occasionally assassinations. She is Magician's apprentice, studying magic. She's aware of Magician's past with Miss Santa, but does not have much personal investment in it, only focusing on learning magic.

...............................................................................

So that's it, this took way longer to write than it should've... Even then it's only focused on Sloth arc and some of Original Sin Story but I will NOT make the fucking entirety of Evillious fit with this (maybe).

Please let me know anything you think about this or any questions you have (especially if you're not Evillious brainrotted, I am very willing to infodump /lh)

Bye-bye!!!

Warriors Orochi Substitute Officers

When playing a battle as a character that is an ally in the battle, a generic officer will take their place. Substitute officer allocations were all over the place in Warriors Orochi Z, but in Warriors Orochi 3, efforts were made to standardise them. Such a shame Koei Tecmo got lazy and scrapped that system in Warriors Orochi 4.

Anyway, here is a list of substitute officers in Warriors Orochi 3, combined with my substitute officer picks for the hypothetical Warriors Orochi: The Recollective (hereafter shortened to WOX) and a hypothetical Warriors Orochi 4 that I will cover in its retrospective.

In service to Wang Mang 2 (HHS)

(Including the early travails of Ma Yuan)

[HHS022]

Jing Dan, courtesy name Sunqing, was a native of Liyang in Pingyi. As young he studied in Chang'an. At the time of Wang Mang he studied the Four Categories.

The Eastern Watchtower Records says: In the time of Wang Mang they lifted up scholars of the schools of Virtuous Acts, Able Speech,Thoroughness in Government Affairs, and Clarity in Writing.

Dan for his ability in speech became Chancellor to the Marquis of Gude, and was praised for having the capacity to manage affairs. He moved to Deputy to the Joint Leader of Shuodiao.

Shuodiao is Shanggu. Deputy is Dependant Prefect.

[HHS023]

Dou Rong, courtesy name Zhougong, was a native of Pingling in Fufeng. His seventh generation ancestor Guangguo was August Empress Xiaowen's younger brother, and was ennobled Marquis of Zhangwu. Rong's great-great-grandfather in the time of Emperor Xuan as a Two Thousand Shi official moved from Changshan to there.

Rong was orphaned young. In the middle of Wang Mang's administration, he became Marshal to the General of Strong Crossbows, went east to strike Zhai Yi, and turned back to attack Huaili. For his merit with the army he was ennobled Baron of Jianwu.

The General of Strong Crossbows was Mang's Marquis of Mingyi, Wang Jun. Zhao Ming, Huo Hong, and other of Huaili rose up with troops in response to Zhai Yi. Wang Yi and others routed Zhai Yi and turned back. The combined army struck Ming, Hong, and others, and wiped them out. Rong at the time was accompanying that army, see the Book of Han. The Eastern Watchtower Records and the Continued Book of Han both state he became Baron of Ningwu.

His younger sister became the junior wife of the Great Minister of Works, Wang Yi. He had his family within Chang'an, and set out to enter among the nobles and their kin. He formed connections with prominent and outstanding of his hamlet, and became famous due to his reliance on chivalry. However, he served his mother and older brother and raised his younger brother, and within cultivated acting with right-mindedness.

[HHS024]

Ma Yuan, courtesy name Wenyuan, was a native of Maoling in Fufeng. His ancestor Zhao She was a Zhao general and was titled Lord of Mafu. His sons and grandsons following that used it as their clan. In the time of Emperor Wu, [the family] as Two Thousand Shi officials, moved from Handan to there.

The Eastern Watchtower Records says: They moved to Chenghuan Village in Maoling.

His great-grandfather Tong for his merit was ennobled Marquis of Zhonghe. He was implicated in his older brother Heluo's rebellion and was executed. For that reason Yuan's two generations were not distinguished.

Ma Heluo was good friends with Jiang Yun. When Yun was executed, he consequently feared the crime would reach himself, planned rebellion, and submitted to execution. For the affair, see the Book of Han.

Yuan's grandfather and father did not manage to do distinguished service. In the Eastern Watchtower Han Records, Tong begot Bin, who in the time of Emperor Xuan as Gentleman Holding the Tally was titled Envoy Lord. The Envoy Lord begot Zhong, Zhong's official position reached Marshal of Dark Martiality. Zhong begot Yuan.

Yuan had three older brothers, Kuang, Yu, and Yuan#. All had talent and ability, and in the time of Wang Mang all became Two Thousand Shi officials.

The Eastern Watchtower Records says: Kuang, courtesy name Changping [or Zhangping?]. Yu, courtesy name Shengqing. Yuan, courtesy name Jizhu.

Kuang became Grand Warden of Henan, Yu Colonel of the Central Ramparts. Yuan# Joint Leader of Zengshan.

Yuan was orphaned at the age of twelve. As young he had great aspirations, his older brothers were amazed by him. He once received the Qi Poetry, but his thoughts were unable to hold on to its chapters and sentences.

The Eastern Watchtower Records says: He received the Qi poetry, his teacher was Man Chang of Yingchuan.

He therefore explained to Kuang, and wished to go to a border commandery and engage in farming and herding.

The Eastern Watchtower Records says: Yuan, since Kuang had set out to become Grand Warden of Henan, and his next two older brothers were officials in the Capital City, saw that the family's means were not sufficient. Therefore he explained to Kuang his wish to go to a border commandery and engage in livestock herding.

Kuang said:

You have great talent and will successful later on. A good craftsman does not show people the raw materials, follow what you are fond of.

It happened that Kuang passed. Yuan wore mourning clothes for the full year and did not leave the place where the tomb was. He respectfully served his widowed sister-in-law, and he did not put on his cap or enter the house.

Later he became the commandery's Courier Supervisor, and sent off prisoners the Minister of Instructions' Office. There was a prisoner who had committed a serious crime. Yuan had sympathy for him, and released him, and thereupon became a fugitive in the northern lands. There was an amnesty, following that he stayed behind to herd livestock. There were many retainers who returned to adhere to him, and consequently his servants and dependants numbered several hundred families.

The Continued Book of Han: Yuan went beyond the northern lands, and relied on herding the clan's livestock. Since Yuan's grandfather Bin originally had stayed in Tianshui, and his father also once had been Prefect of the Herdsmen Teachers. At that time Yuan# had become Envoy for Protecting Pastures, and for that reason the retainers all relied on Yuan.

He shifted and drifted between Long and Han, and often spoke to his retainers, saying:

When a grown man has aspirations, destitution will increase his firmness, age will increase his sturdiness

Following that, he settled to engage in farming and herding, and reached to have several thousand heads of cattle, horses and sheep, and several ten thousand hu of grain. Then he sighed and said:

In general, the growth of goods, wealth and property, is prized for its ability to distribute relief. If not, then [you] are a prisoner to defending money, and that is all.

He therefore fully distributed it to his brothers and old friends, and personally wore sheep fur clothes and hide trousers.

At the end of Wang Mang, when troops rose in the four regions, Mang's junior cousin, the General of Guards, broadly summoned the valiant and outstanding, and then nominated Yuan and Yuan She of the same county to be staff members, and recommended them to Mang. Mang used She as Great Governor of Zhenrong and Yuan as Great Governor of Xincheng.

Wang Mang changed Tianshui to be Zhenrong and Grand Warden to be Great Governor. He changed Hanzhong to be Xincheng.

Clear and Muddy Loss of Love/泾渭情殇 by 请君莫笑

(Art from the audiodrama on Mao'er, with the named changed to 泾渭无间)

Synopsis

Qiyan Agula is the orphaned survivor of the Jing royal family, an ethnic nomadic tribe wiped out a decade ago in a war with the Wei kingdom. Vowing revenge, she takes the identity of a man named Qi Yan, and tries to enter the Wei government through its Imperial Exams and destroy it from the inside. However, her plans go awry when the Emperor asks Qi Yan to marry his favorite daughter Nangong Jingnu.

Qi Yan's powerful teacher and benefactor, a princess of the previous dynasty, is also determined to destroy the Nangong court. She has a network of spies helping Qi Yan maintain her secret identity to continue with the revenge plan. After earning the trust of the young and naive princess, Qi Yan begins to work with the princes, using their political influence to her advantage while prodding on them to turn on each other in the competition to become Crown Prince.

The Wei Kingdom is plagued by poor policy, a corrupt and entrenched gentry, and ambitious neighbors at its borders. In the maelstrom of politicking and backstabbing, Nangong Jingnu is the only person in the world who really cares for her "husband" Qi Yan like family, and Qi Yan is tortured by the reminder that the person she has grown to care for is the daughter of her arch nemesis. As Emperor Nangong Rang's health deteriorates, Jingnu is forced to grow up and learn about the history and politics behind her life of privilege, and choose her path in this world ...

Thoughts that live rent-free in my head [unmarked spoiler ahead]

Political Intrigue

Political Intrigue is what initially hooked me on this novel. It's not super intricate or rigorous, but it's definitely above-average for a historical web novel. The scope of the political intrigue covers palace intrigue and imperial succession, politicking among the elite classes, the impact of policy and inequality on grass root citizens, local/regional governance, and of course, the opportunities and complications brought by neighboring nations with a different culture and ethnicity.

I'm kind of picky with political intrigue stories. It's hard to write "the protagonist is smart and strategic" while also avoiding "everyone else is stupid and incapable of independent thought." Qi Yan has the physical constitution of a dry leaf that will disintegrate with one wrong move, but she is given an over-powered political brain to make up for it. She is knowledgeable about everything that is relevant, her complex plans usually pan out perfectly, and she is rarely outclassed or cornered in these power games. But the plot and action are tightly-paced, which keeps me engaged instead of dwelling on potential plot holes.

Unlike most c-novels I have read, this story highlights the perspective of the nomadic tribes, and (at least in the main story line) does not end with the Han-coded emperor "unifying" the land. The tribes still do not have the most flattering portrayal, as we see with the Nagus Clan's numerous deceptions and scandalous affairs, and Bayin's obstination and simpleness. However, Qi Yan has memories and ideals for a freer and kinder tribal life, and we empathize her grief for the loss of that way of life.

Qi Yan

Qi Yan is a very interesting character. She is smart, ruthless, drowning in rage and grief, but only rarely loses herself in it. While her mentor has trained her to lean into hatred and resentment, Qi Yan is not ignorant to the kindness, sincerity, and innocence of the most Wei citizens who had nothing to do with her family's death. She eventually narrows the scope of her revenge to the core of the Nangong court, and is earnestly helping the Wei citizens when working as an official.

I love the portrayal and transformation of the rage and resentment Qi Yan feels over the loss of her family and tribe. We see her grow from being consumed by vengeance, to sympathizing with innocent people, to trying to make the best out of the good things she has, and finally, to realizing there are things she just cannot forgive.

A lot of stories get very preachy about things like vengeance and forgiveness, and c-novels especially tend to have marginalized people absolve the Han-coded emperors or officials to "prioritize the big picture" But this story really leans into the humanity of the love and grief that drives Qi Yan's rage. The decision she makes about it in the end is so wonderfully flawed and completely in character -- because there is just no way for all this to end perfectly after all that's happened.

Jingnu

As for Nangong Jingnu, I really do think she is a poor precious sweet angel who did not deserve *gestures vaguely at the whole plot* this but this is such a classical case of sins of the father. And her father really is a terrible person to everyone, including his other eleven children, except for her.

She has an amazing character arc, starting as an naive princess and eventually ending up as a competent and wise Empress Regent. I think her growth as a politician is a bit too quick and smooth. For a long time she is consistently outclassed by other politicians like Qi Yan, but very quickly she becomes an independent ruler. Still, it's very satisfying to see her finally becoming a force for change in their broken world.

One thing I find very interesting about Jingnu is her devotion to the imperfect people that she loves. Her father and Qi Yan never show her the full extent of their darker sides, but she loves that best version of them so fiercely. As her father's favorite princess, she is respected and pampered, but no one truly dares to get too close to her because she is ranked higher than everyone. I think that loneliness really did a number on her. She finds home in Qi Yan so she is determined to keep it, and I'm just happy she can have the thing she really wants (even though I do not think this relationship has been fair to her).

Other thoughts

An interesting side effect I noticed while reading the novel, which centers on Qi Yan's POV, is I ended up internalizing some of her cynical and revenge-focused world view. I felt fairly disaffected by most of the character deaths in the story because Qi Yan did not want to care about them; even if she objectively knows they are not all terrible, she is not prone to being sympathetic to most Wei officials. When I finally sympathize with a supporting character, I keep on praying that he won't be revealed to be total trash a few story arcs down the line, because it happens a lot. It's nearly 90% into the novel when I finally come across a character death that genuinely saddened me.

There are many great female characters in this story. Jingnu's wise-and-caring oldest sister helps her out of many pinches, and the gentle-but-resilient second sister gets a fantastic story line and side CP. Tribal princess Jiya is ambitious, brave, and made my jaw drop some many times (in joy and in shock). The mysterious princess of the previous dynasty is also amazing (even as a villain) and makes you wonder how history might have changed if she became the ruler instead of her brother.

I was a bit disappointed that many side characters' story lines are are still left wide open at the end of such a long novel, but the author's note convinced me this is for the best. The author has given this universe and these characters so much life that their own stories can and should go on for millions of words more, and it's both impossible and unfair to think they will all wrap up neatly just as Qi Yan and Jingnu's story ends.

And last but not least, the theme song from the AD is just so goooooooood

What was the greatest victory of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms?

If we take the history of the state from Liu Bei's independence in Jing (209), I'd say the greatest success was the conquest of Yi province. That became the core of the empire and it was a very well-conducted campaign. Nothing else really came close.

If we only say from Liu Bei's taking the throne on, probably Wang Ping's victory over Cao Shuang. It was an excellently fought campaign where a large army was driven back with minimal losses. Alternatively you might say the campaigns in Nanzhong under Zhuge Liang and (particularly) Ma Zhong. These were essential for establishing Shu's control over the region, which was vital for its survival.

A halted advance

Ma Cao’s 10,000 troops at the border between Han and Jing province were reduced to 4,000. The 6,000 lost troops were essential in halting Cao Cao’s advance, in a heroic defence. Shu Han has lost the territory up to the Xiang river, but still controls the region south of it.

Additionally, 20% of the other generals’ troops were killed in their retreat. Their remaining troops are currently standing along the Yangtze river. Perhaps Shu Han should now bide its time and wait to recover…
