shadarasSome fun comment threads from last week!
1.sabriel pointed out in the comments last week that “For someone who's 'grieving' for their dead brother, this sort of ostentatious feast [that Zhao Jing is throwing] is really inappropriate.”, which is an absolutely wonderful point. Yet another little marker of how we’re shown that Zhao Jing isn’t what he appears to be, no matter how nice a front he puts up.
2.rosaxx50 wrote a comment that included a great summary of how ZZS spends the second half of ep5 getting more and more intrigued/willing to play along with WKX’s games.
3. A nice little discussion betweentrobadora and sabriel about wtf was up with Shen Shen pretending to be drunk and then opening his eyes real dramatic-like.
Episode 6 is one of the episodes that got a special version with a brief added scene! I am indeed watching that version. :)
This is also the episode I got my icon from! :D
( Scene List and Notes on Time )
( Recap )
( Commentary )
Discussion Prompts/Questions
1. Do you have more thoughts about why Zhou Zishu removes his mask here?
2. How long do you think Wuchang Gui and Xie-wang have been working together? I haven’t been able to figure out even a solid guess, so any thoughts or potential things to look out for would be awesome to hear!
3. Keeping track of the pieces of glazed armor is hard! It’s about to get a lot harder, as we start trying to guess where the real instance of Lu Taichong’s piece is in the midst of the fakes. How’re you feeling about knowing who has what pieces, right now?
4. Any thoughts/feelings about Tian Chuang showing up? Or about the ways Zhou Zishu accepts Wen Kexing calling himself a good person but constantly brings up how he’s a murderer and a terrible person? (These are related in my head! They might not be, in yours, and that’s okay.)
Next Time: Meeting Luo Fumeng | Xisang Gui at the staged death-wedding for Mu Yunge! Han Ying talks to Gao Chong about the Glazed Armor! ZZS tries to convince himself that he doesn’t need to guard Chengling anymore! WKX meets back up with ZZS! We’re introduced to Cao Weining!
