wow this is literally me... i've become kinda obsessed with everything related, i've seen cql two times already, now I'm watching the donghua and also reading this... i can't get enough of it! anyways the novel >>>>
listen to the audio drama if you want the same quality given by the novel! they act each scene out exactly as it was written, and it's the medium that gave us the wangxian duet song! quality is so good it's like you're listening to a movie and just can't see it
Do you have a link?
Yas that damn audio drama is the greatest thing of all time. The actors are absolutely amazing. I felt every single emotion. I laughed when they laughed and cried when they cried. It was so incredible~
you must join the suibiansubs discord chat - they have all the seasons (the entire book) plus all the extras! there is literally not a scene in the book that isn't included in the audio drama haha. this is the link to their account with information: https://suibiansubs.tumblr.com/troubleshooting
ALSO!!! last month, the japanese version of the audio drama started. i think it's quite good as well :) and who doesn't like another adaption! a lot of the voice actors are quite famous and talented, so it's fun. here is a link to the subbing team currently releasing these episodes: https://twitter.com/3pasubs?lang=en
yap. that's why I keep saying to read the novel FIRST! don't watch/read anything else. the novel was the best!
omg thanks, i knew there was an audio drama and i've listened to some parts on youtube but i couldn't find the whole thing, thanks for the links!!
The novel is the most emotionally satisfying. The drama and anime are both good, with the acting in the drama being really great SPOILER AHEAD
SPOILERS AHEAD
While I'm at it, I want to give everyone some advice. W/e you do, DON'T take all nighters 4 consecutive days while binging the drama, novel and anime one after another. YOU WILL BREAK DOWN CRYING, YOU WILL FORGO EATING AND YOU DEFFINITLY WILL RUIN YOUR HEART AND MIND.
DRAMA SPOILER
NOVEL SPOILER
tho the ending is heart breaking and not really faithful to Lan Zhan's need for closeness to Wei Ying but even so it is quite lovely. I watched it bfr I read the novel knowing they will go with the no romo route so I can't say how ppl who first read the novel would feel. But I do recc first watching it than reading, so you can look foreword to the happy ending of the novel instead of being heart broken while watching the drama drama. Either way, I cried in both instances.
ANIMESPOILER
The anime isn't finished yet but the art style is good and the plot flows quite nicely, tho it doesn't follow the novel, it does have a lot more romo subtext than the drama so it's great in that area.
Thank you for the links!!!
The invite link for the discord does not work. I sent an ask about it, when I have any new info I'll share.
Just Google suibiansubs and click over to their tumblr the very first post had a link to their discord
That one works, tnxxx
The quality is so much lower than the novel, like the novel is a whole other lvl. If you compare them it's really lacking. If I hadn't read the novel I wouldn't have gone thru with reading this. But bcs the novel is so extraordinary, I've developed an obsession and a loyalty to all the mediums based on it.
