So I'm skipping around watching the Blood of Youth donghua (spoilers ahead obv) and can I just say:

I love everyone's extended screentime and just how awesome they are??? I love that we get more time with them and get to see more of how the characters are as people and how they interact with each other.

Given that the drama and donghua are different mediums, it's really interesting to see the differences and changes they made to the drama in order to fit the main story into 40 episodes (ugh. Thanks for that ridiculous law, Beijing). But like...they still make sense and it's so great! Wuxin and Tang Lian's VAs also sound like the ones in the drama, which is really nice. Less jarring.

Also love how the extended series is able to follow the novel more closely to show us more of what the story was originally intended to be.

IT'S ASTOUNDING how the drama managed to replicate elements of the donghua. Also the actors NAILED their characters.

Tiannu Rui is such a badass. Just saying. She be slitting throats left and right.

They're all so ridiculous and I love how the donghua has those like whipcrack humor moments (ex. S3 Hua Jin trying to physically stop Mu Chunfeng from giving her the three kowtows to become her apprentice and when Lei Wujie is saving Xiao Se and Sikong Qianluo from the giant snake...only to be thanked with a foot in his gut lmao).

Although I am kinda tired of seeing the fur outfit on Xiao Se; it's so bulky and I can't help but think about how it must be so hot and how dirty the fur is with all their travels and adventures???

Qianluo and Xiao Se. I am DYING; they are so funny. There's this really sweet, subtle reveal of romance in the drama, which really fits in with the whole idea of youth and growth, and IT WORKS. The donghua is different though; still subtle as a relationship reveal as a whole, but with more time given to the show and characters, I love that we get to see a different take on Qianluo's brashness and ferocity and fearlessness and how their dynamic evolves as they continue their travels and adventures. Qianluo is forever my girl and I love her so much ;_;

Ruoyi <3 that's it, that's the bullet point

I was not expecting to see baby Baili Dongjun and Yue Yao in this

Forever crying over Li Hanyi and Zhao Yuzhen 😭😭😭

Elimination Round: Princess Yue Ships

Find Yue/Katara HERE Find Yue/Mai HERE Find Yue/Sokka HERE Find Yue/Sukki HERE

Dearest princess Yue is a tragic character in canon, bravely sacrificing her mortal form and humanity to take the place of the dying moon spirit, but the fandom wants to see her live and thrive. And get a date.

Despite being in few episodes and having a rather final end to her story, Yue still features heavily in a LOT of ships. Though none of them passed through the first elimination rounds, she still has several riding in this round. As such, only the top 3 ships from this specific poll will advance to the tournament proper.

Since you’ve written so many amazing big-brained ATLA rarepairs, which would you say are your favorites?

Hello and thanks a lot for both the complilment AND the ask!! I just love so much your Irosami content 😭😭😭

As for my favorite ATLA rarepairs... It's a but hard to say, but I'm extremely fond of Zhayu (also of Yue/Zuko but I don't know if it still counts as a rarepair) and Azula/Kuei, I just find those dynamics fascinating.

But as an important note, I love with my whole heart all the tags I've contributed the first work to! Now that I go through my AO3 profile I realize those are a few already 😂 but in particular, Hahn/Toph and Jin/Kuei. There's the very specific AU about Poppy Beifong/Zhao that I started writing as a crack fic joke and then it turned into a serious thing for me 😅

Thanks again, and sorry it took me so long to get to answer!!

[sunnylighter]

Hey all, I've started another fanfic. It's a crossover for Avatar the Last Airbender and Mo Dao Zu Shi. Please check it out if you want.

Summary:

Later on, they would realize it was done by the Moon Spirit.

Later on, they would conclude that when her life was threatened the Great Moon Spirit Tui did what it took to survive.

As the foul Fire Human who dared commit the blasphemy of threatening the very moon held the sack containing her aloft, Tui's small fish eyes managed to find a gap in the cloth, and through it catch sight of the young human girl she had once blessed with her power so that she might live.

And with that blessing, the two remained connected. So Tui used her powers to reach out and grasp that connection as tightly as she could.

Then, going against her name, going against fate, going against time itself, Tui for once did not push.

She pulled!

Princess Yue gasped as something yanked free inside her mind. Like a dam breaking free and flooding in her mind.

Memories!

Chapters update every other week.

Oh no, now they're pointedly ignoring each other. So do you guys have a History (tm), or-

Fun Facts behind TTEOTM!

Creative Team

Till the End of the Moon is the second TV drama produced by newcomer Otters Studio (獭獭文化), which was originally set up for dangai/BL drama Immortality (皓衣行), also featuring Luo Yunxi.

The Hangzhou-based Otters Studio is a subsidiary of Nanpai Entertainment (南派泛娱), the company owned by Kenneth Xu (aka “Third Uncle" 南派三叔). Xu is best known as the novelist and screenwriter behind "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" (盗墓笔记).

A big part of TTEOTM's core creative team also worked on Immortality. And a lot of the Immortality team came from Ashes of Love (2018) with Luo Yunxi. This includes...

He Fang (Screenwriter) - Immortality

Luo Xuan (Screenwriter & Associate Producer) - Immortality

Huang Wei (Costume Designer) - Immortality

Guan Dazhou (Music Director) - Immortality

Wang Yirong (Lead Producer) - Immortality

Wang Haiqi (B Unit Director & Action Director) - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Tsang Mingfai (Makeup Designer) - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Shen Xufei (Special Effects Director) - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Hua Tian World Concept - Immortality & Ashes of Love

Wang Haiqi was the stunt coordinator who trained Luo Yunxi in Ashes of Love

Part of the creative team came from Huanyu (Bai Lu's management company, aka the production company of Yanxi Palace). This includes award-winning art director Luan Hexin, Huang Xinyao (Yue Fuya) and Liu Min (Nan'an).

This is the second time Luo Yunxi and Bai Lu have paired up in a drama. They previously played a couple in modern workplace romance Love is Sweet (2020). Bai Lu expressed interest publicly in pairing up with LYX again in a costume drama numerous times.

In addition, a number of Love is Sweet actors have minor roles or cameos in TTEOTM:

Zhao Yuanyuan (Qiao Na aka Yuan Shuai's colleague who has a crush on him) plays the Moon Goddess

Cheng Chang (Jiang Jun's father) plays Ye Xiwu's father

Deng Jinghong (Jiang Jun and Yuan Shuai's shady client) plays Ye Xiwu's brother Ye Zeyu

The popularity of TTEOTM has generated renewed interest in Love is Sweet on iQiyi. In the first half of 2023, Love is Sweet is ranked #5 on Yunhe's "old/classic drama" list, receiving 360M views (10M views/episode), equivalent to airing a new medium-budget drama.

Two actors in Ashes of Love also have minor roles in TTEOTM:

Wang Yifei (Shuihe aka peacock princess in Ashes of Love) plays the Devil God's lieutenant Siying

He Zhonghua (Heavenly Emperor aka Runyu's father) plays the King of Sheng, again terrorizing Luo Yunxi's childhood

In addition, a number of TTEOTM actors play minor roles in the unaired Immortality:

Huang Yunyun (Yue Yingxin) plays Song Qiutong

Zheng Guolin (Qu Xuanzi aka Susu's father) plays Jiangxi

Huang Haibing (Zhaoyou) plays Nangong Zhangying

He Zhonghua (King of Sheng) plays Nangong Liu

Geng Yeting (Ye Qingyu) plays an unknown role

Production

The source novel (黑月光拿稳BE剧本) was optioned by Otter before it was complete due to strong early hype around the IP and interesting characters & premise. It's one of the top 10 most-saved web novels of that genre on the Jinjiang platform. Its title literally translates to "black moonlight is guaranteed a bad ending screenplay".

The screenplay was written for 40 episodes, which was edited into 50 episodes of probably 45 mins each. The original plan (based on governmental records) was to air 34 episodes as part 1 and 16 episodes as part 2. However, the NRTA (Chinese government agency that regulates TV) closed the loophole around airing two seasons back to back early this year, which is why TTEOTM was edited back down to 40 episodes of 55 mins each so that it could air in one go.

TTEOTM changed its Chinese title twice. It was originally named 月照千峰为一人 (The moon shines for one person). It was then renamed to 长月无烬 (long moon without Jin/ember, also a pun for without limit or endless), which is the official publication name proposed by fans of the web novel. Right before the booting ceremony, it was renamed 长月烬明 likely for auspicious reasons (especially after the LYX accident and Immortality not airing)

Some keen netizens have noticed that if you break apart the characters of its Chinese title, 长月烬明, it becomes 长月火尽日月, which literally means....

长月 (long moon) - how people refer to the drama, in its short form

火 (fire) - Chinese internet lingo for explosive or popular

尽日月 (to the end of sun and moon)

(Gotta give one to Chinese people for coming up with auspicious names)

Luo Yunxi was injured right before production began when filming his final scene in Light Chaser Rescue. He got punched in the mouth by a costar which required emergency surgery and left a scar on the top left corner of his mouth. Production was delayed as a result. Bai Lu had to film her solo scenes first starting Oct 19, 2021. The booting ceremony took place on Nov 6, 2021 after Luo Yunxi joined the set.

Luo Yunxi was the first actor to be cast, according to an interview with the producer. It is rumored that he might have even picked which novel to adapt as Otter initially optioned both "Black Moonlight" and "Black Lotus Casebook". Bai Lu is also the "only choice" for Li Susu according to Yu Zheng.

Yin Tao (Who Rules The world, Love & Redemption, and Ancient Love Poetry) was originally considered for director, but he worked on the Blood of Youth instead. In the end they went with Kuk Kok Leung, an award-winning veteran TVB director who has adapted 7 out of 8 Jin Yong novels. One of the Cantonese songs Luo Yunxi kept singing on set is the OST of the 1983 Condor Heroes where Kuk served as Assistant Director.

Sun Zhenni (Pianran) and Zhao Shiyi (Fuyu) won their roles through open casting call. Sun Zhenni was a big fan of Bai Lu, and the two became close friends during the shoot. She is 1/4 German Jewish through her paternal grandmother.

Chen Duling (Ye Bingchang / Tian Huan) briefly dated Xichao Wang (who plays Jing Mie, the demon god's other lieutenant). They were apparently introduced by Yu Zheng (boss of Bai Lu's studio).

Luo Yunxi and Sun Zhenni are the only actors who dubbed themselves in the drama. Bai Lu is dubbed by Duan Yixuan, who is also the voice behind Linglong in Love & Redemption.

This is the second time Luo Yunxi plays a dragon god (Runyu is the first). This is also the second time Bai Lu plays a character who leaps off the tower to her death in a costume drama.

Post-production was rumored to be delayed and then rushed due to a number of reasons, including covid which hit the special effects team hard and the last minute change of the 40-episode rule.

Promotion

During the premiere day, celebrities posted on Weibo to promote the drama in support of Luo Yunxi (usually actors only ask for this favor when it's a really important project to their career): Huang Xiaoming, Tan Songyun, Wu Jingyan, Chen Yuqi, Cheng Xiao, Victoria Song, Zhang Ruonan, Huang Xuan, Chen Yao. The most noteworthy ones were Chen Xiao (whose drama was also opening on the same day) and EDG (the esports team that LYX supports)
