#tsomd ending

[cynosurus]

Just finished The Sleuth of Ming Dynasty.

I don't think I will be over the "I'm bringing my former subordinate-turned traitor with me in a cage to my new assignment" resolution in a long time.

I've only watched the first two episodes and this is my main impression so far

[chi-chi-chimera]

Tang Fan, Tantai Jin, what is it with these thin, waifish pretty-boys with their autistic swag?

[zhoudadudugongjin]

I finished tsomd. I am more than satisfied with that ending.

I love all this babies so much

What have been your favorite Cdramas out of the ones you’ve seen? Like top 3 or top 5 favorites?

hehe hiiiii thank you for the question :)

I'm going to leave out mysterious lotus casebook/lhl/莲花楼 (2023) because I finished that most recently and its consuming my every waking thought so I don't think I can be properly impartial. and I strive for long-term accuracy on tumblr dot org

okay here's my opinion on a top 5 from what i have personally watched (but really that isn't that much)

1. the untamed/cql/陈情令 (2020). obviously. lifechanging for REAL it taught me about the power of love

2. guardian/镇魂 (2018). OBVIOUSLY. shen wei you will live in my head forever.

3. till the end of the moon/长月烬明 (2023). i thought this one was fucking captivating i wish more of my mewchuals watched it pspspspsps

4. the sleuth of the ming dynasty/tsomd/成化十四年 (2020). tang fan voice SUI GUANGCHUAN ‼️‼️‼️

5. love between fairy and devil/clj/苍兰诀 (2022). BEST costuming. story was so fun. as long as you can get past The Killer (the secondhand embarrassment in episode 8 or whatever it is)

honorable mention to hikaru no go/棋魂 (2020), I really loved that one too.

once upon a time word of honor/shl/山河令 (2021) would have had a place here but my feelings abt it are complicated now. that being said there was truly nothing like all the jesties watching it at once. take me back !!!!!

also when eternal faith comes out i have no doubt i will lose my mind. i need to see the wind master. huge.

Sui Zhou just being present on screen or on the page just makes me feel so safe

[zhuhongs]

gay cdramas ranked by ending (as far as ik abt how they ended):

shl (havent seen the ending but everyone said it was a happy ending) > cql >>>>>>>> guardian (LMAO) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The leaked deleted guardian ending that we all refuse to acknowledge..its bad bad>>>>>>>>>>>> (TIMES 500) The twwtadsl drama/birth of a drama king (THEY MADE GUIHAN BROTHERS...LIKE BIO BROTHERS)

My reactions to the endings of the media I finished in the last week:

The Sleuth of Ming Dynasty: wtf :D

Good Omens 2: wtf D:

The Scum Villain's Self Saving System: *wipes sweat off forehead* - now give me the AU where everyone gets therapy in time

[catboymuqing-moving]

i get so caught up in tang fan being autistic that i forget the actual subplot with the autistic guy that part was so bizarre.. i thought they handled it really well mostly except a couple parts that were just off the deep end

[leatherbookmarking]

oh hey, thanks, woh made me realize that there’s a plot point i hate more than everything, to the point of seriously considering dropping it! and it’s ‘characters having zero chemistry, getting into situations that make people go ooooh you fucked didn’t you!, even though they didn’t, because they have zero chemistry, and eventually getting together, even though they have zero chemistry’

[catboystigmata-archive]

yknow it’s been a little too quiet around here

[shijiujun]

once again, duboku has overachieved and released like... another 16 episodes until the end wtf i thought i’d have another week before duboku pulled this again but great this bij is gonna watch until dawn again

edit: TSOMD ENDS WELL!!!! OMFG THANK GODDDDD

omg it ends well so i can sleep easy also like i liked some parts of the show way more than the novel with wang zhi and wang gui fei’s roles? gosh and they didn’t force a hetero ending!!!! OMFGGGGGG like i love it i love it i mean it was a lot of fighting all till the end but i almost cried at the last seven minutes i think TSOMD ended pretty well, had its moments, sometimes was a little boring with confusing cases BUT ain’t half bad omg, and i actually get fed with fanzhou my god like thank god for small mercies i really needed that ;-;

also wan gui fei’s character surprised me the most? she’s like a good person in the show and gets so much screen time and she’s fucking cool she leads an entirely female army?!!! like wtf man that’s the coolest shit ever - because in the novel she’s described as a jealous, petty and bad-tempered woman and she didn’t even get that much screen time except when she turned up to like manipulate the emperor and gosh i didn’t like her plus she kinda just died quietly at the end of the novel but the show rewrote her character?!!! which i love i love i love!!!

i’ll tag #tsomd spoilers for all my future gifs if any!

[ID: a video clip from episode 10 of the series “The Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty.” The scene opens with a shot of a boat sailing. Tang Fan is sitting in his room looking deep in thought before Duo’erla barges in. Tang Fan says, “What are you doing?” Duo’erla says “chopsticks” with a flaw in her pronunciation. He asks, “What?” She repeats herself, looking urgent. He comes to the realization about what she’s saying and says, “Chopsticks. Say ‘chopsticks.’” Meanwhile, she finds his chopsticks and takes them, turning around. He shouts and starts to go after her, but she throws the case back at him and he falls down. By the time he stands up, Wang Zhi has barged into his room, looking angry. He says, “You have a serious problem.” Tang Fan looks stunned and confused. “What problem?” Wang Zhi points at him and says, “You are not honest. Neither you nor the people around you are honest.” Tang Fan recoils slightly and says, “What are you talking about?” Wang Zhi glares at him. /end ID]
