So glad you seem to be enjoying this show. It has been one of my favorites over the past few years

I thought exactly the same thing about Nier as well

“There’s a lot of comedy in this show” then a few minutes later Maomao talks to Jinshi about how she wishes to die, and it doesn’t feel forced or out of nowhere (tho it is brought up suddenly, but you can very easily understand why it would be on her mind). Really speaks to the perfect balance this show manages to strike.

she’s around the age most anime protags are lol. they can make older looking characters if they want to or intend to

Nusutto

She and jinshi are actually pretty close in age

maomao mentioned how it would've been very difficult for the women to climb to the top of the wall with "bound feet" ,so i looked up "historical chinese bound feet" and wow, that is wild that how twisted it looks but cool that the show mentions small facts like that, interesting how beauty standards were in different cultures/different periods

Chord progression is super sultry and beautiful. I actually covered it on piano

Just your standard historical detective anime with an MV mid-episode. So Maomao is supposedly under 20, it's hard to tell with anime aesthetics, I honestly wouldn't have been surprised if they said she was mid-20s either, given how much knowledge she's got, damn you gifted children! :D
