Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis story was originally written by best selling Chinese author Ken Liu and is featured in his book of short stories "The Paper Menagerie."
- GoofsIt makes absolutely no sense for a Chinese to be using a typical Japanese katana instead of a Chinese sword. Nothing about the character or the setting could justify that choice. It's entirely unlikely to happen, especially for a character with a yin/yang pendant, symbolizing Taoism, around his neck.
Featured review
One of the favourite episodes in love death robot
This is a really beautiful episode and as Chinese this episode could really relate. In so many ancient stories in China, many blamed women as the reason why one man could fall from their peak of career, their study or even their ruling if the country. These women are blamed for centuries because of their beauty and being loved. What young Yan said is pretty much a response to those blames.
And in their adulthood, the theme seems shifted a bit. This story might be ecplised by trying to express and criticise too much. The later theme looks fine actually. But I was hoping the writers could expand their first theme a little. Besides that, it's still a very beautiful episode.
