Ah yes, Chinese web comic adaptations that are only announced 1 month before they air with only-god-knows-who for staff.
What could possibly go wrong!

The Chinese characters are so unshaded, bland or something, it's like they're missing a step in the designs.

I still await the day that Tower of God, Noblesse, the Breaker, or Feng Shen Ji get adaptations. I mean just a couple years back you did not get any manhua/manhwa adaptations and now we are getting a few ones here and there. That has to mean something right?

Yes. Except, 2/3 of those titles already have adaptations...

Noblesse has this and this.
Feng Shen Ji has an adaptation that's airing right now (which I'm watching). MAL page here.

Saying that, I wish China and Korea would pump money into adapting good, popular works instead of collaborating or giving crappy ones to the Japanese industry... The Chinese ones that get adapted outside of China are generic/cliche/shitty ones that are like bad fanfic that somehow got published. =_= Plus Chinese manhua are super rooted in Chinese culture, which is completely lost/awkward in translation...

I'll give the first episode a spin though. Maybe "Bloodivores" will be so bad it'll be good for the laughs...
Then again, it's called Bloodivores.

Yay, I can finally tell my friends:

"Yo, nigga! Watch this Chinese cartoon shit. It's literally made by the Chinese".

Anyways, I'm sure this will turn out really bad.

Going to keep low expectations for this. Plus, I'm not very familiar with the staff so far.

Tamen de Gushi when


“Read as little as possible of critical or aesthetic works. They are either products of a close-minded spirit, petrified and devoid of meaning in their lifeless hardening, or clever verbal games [...]. Works of art are of an infinite solitude; nothing is worse than criticism for approaching them. Only love can grasp them, keep them, be just toward them. Always give precedence to your own feeling against these analyses, these reviews, these introductions. [...] You must let every impression, every seed of feeling, ripen within you, in the dark, in the inexpressible, in the unconscious, those regions closed to understanding. Wait with humility and patience for the hour of the birth of a new clarity. Art demands of its faithful followers as much as of its creators.”
— RAINER-MARIA Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet (letter dated April 23, 1903).
