Every week I pull data on how many fics are in each fandom and compare to the previous week, then calculate the percentage increase to determine fastest growing fandoms.  Since this naturally skews towards smaller fandoms, I have included the same data filtered to Over 1k, 5k, & 10k fics.

Overall:

Over 1,000 Fics:

Over 5,000 Fics:

We are bugs. 😂

But seriously, The Three Body Problem is one of the best sci-fi series I've ever seen (although nothing beats Dark for me).

No wonder why I enjoyed The Wandering Earth (2019).

Both productions are based on the work of author Liu Cixin.

so... in 'the wandering earth'... did they just left the moon behind, like zaijian bitch

sorry this is a bit of a weird ask, but i've always wondered - does your twitter bio (the brightmyth one) have any particular meaning? you don't have to answer if you don't want to, i'm genuinely just curious haha (i like its... vibe? even though i dont know what it's about) but it's totally fine if you don't want to share for any reason of course

oh of course :) it's from the chinese sci-fi movie The Wandering Earth (2019) loosely adapted from the liu cixin short story... the premise is the sun is half a century away from going supernova as it reaches the end of its life stage. humanity constructed giant engines all over the planet to push us of our orbit in hopes of finding eventually finding a habitable star system thousands of years in the future... hence "the wandering earth". everything on the planet has frozen over bc we're out in deep space away from the sun, and the world's oceans and lakes have all become solid blocks of ice.

the line in my bio "I believe you. there will be a day where ice turns into water" is from this scene where a russian cosmonaut gets impacted by debris and dies helping his coworker reach the command module onboard the mission satellite... the hope and wistful humanity of it all

I once was disappointed in the world, in myself I once avoided, surrendered, and regretted I will no longer hide myself even if others laugh that I dare dream

I won't envy those born to be chosen ones I won't bow down to fate I know I have the courage

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (inextinguishable courage) oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

if my heart can still be touched, I can still be impulsive if I have regrets in the future, who can I blame to relieve that pain even if I fail better that than become someone I can't respect in the end oh ooh ooh oh someone I can't respect

my motivation to live I haven't heard it enough if I have nothing left, I must move ahead I swallow my complaints only believing in bravery burning apart the deepest corners of my heart

I once was disappointed in the world, in myself I once avoided, surrendered, and regretted I will no longer hide myself failure is still more honourable than cowardice

there's so many born to be chosen ones yet who don't fight for anything I know I have the courage

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (inextinguishable courage) oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

if my heart can still be touched, I can still be impulsive if I have regrets in the future, who can I blame to relieve that pain even if I fail better that than become someone I can't respect in the end oh ooh ooh oh someone I can't respect

my motivation to live I haven't heard it enough if I have nothing left, I must move ahead I swallow my complaints only believing in bravery burning apart the deepest corners of my heart

I once was disappointed in the world, in myself I once avoided, surrendered, and regretted I will no longer hide myself failure is still more honourable than cowardice

there's so many born to be chosen ones yet who don't fight for anything I know I have the courage

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (inextinguishable courage) oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

past my eyes fierce gusts of icy wind blow even if I wait an eternity for it to pass, the ice and snow will one day melt 321, look up, take a deep look at this universe the ordinary you underneath this starry sky, how will you choose to live

I want you to look back, want you to be free, want you to break free of your shackles unafraid of pain, unwilling to admit cowardice, unhappy to remain ordinary nothing in my world is impossible do you dare muster the courage and say come on, follow me

I once was disappointed in the world, in myself I once avoided, surrendered, and regretted I will no longer hide myself failure is still more honourable than cowardice

even if I'm wrong it's still my dream at least I was able to move myself I know I have the courage

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh (inextinguishable courage) oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

One of my favourite edit songs, 有种 was sung by Meng Meiqi for The Wandering Earth's soundtrack. It's a popular song to use over motivational edits of overcoming obstacles and attaining goals, like these ones of gaokao in movies and television (1, 2, 3), or of various public figures' path to fame (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6), and general edits (1, 2).

The Wandering Earth II (2022)

Director - Frant Gwo, Cinematography - Michael Liu

[morweneledhwen]

I've decided to finally watch The Wandering Earth on Netflix and I'm barely 10 minutes in, but wow, what a mind-blowing concept. The social repercussions of the whole set-up alone are worth 6 seasons and a movie.

Can't wait to see what they're going to do with it!

btw i like the wandering earth now, is there any fans here? (btw i watched 1 last year and 2 this week) i wonder what a conversation between AM and MOSS would be

and moss kinda reminds me of HAL9000 yeah that too

[zishiyao]

In the year 2058, an anomalously expanding red giant Sun threatens to engulf the Earth within 100 years. The world's nations are forced to consolidate into a world government and construct 12,000 enormous fusion-powered "Earth Engines" to thrust Earth out of the Solar System. —————— I suspect avallac'h went to the set of The Wandering Earth. haha
