Si Wuxie

If you are familiar with the Little Monk Yi Chan, A Si and Xiao Ling Dang, or Xiao Li and Hu Po series on Bilibili, you will like this since this show is basically a different version of them. If not, I still recommend it. It's funny, adorable, and just awesome. It’s partly slice of life but there's some overarching direction in the plot as you gradually meet more characters.

Here, I just want to talk about episode 10, which is one of my favorite episodes of all time. It somehow provides social commentary on fraudsters all while using twists on the classic wuxia genre. For ... example, there’s a sword that sometimes doubles as a telephone, rabbit-like creatures which are hilariously called rice balls, a mentally challenged guy who simps for a girl and who himself looks like Rapunzel, and a little angry fox girl. I found the episode to be wholly enjoyable in an extraordinarily concise manner. It's perhaps even revolutionary, I would say.

Adjusted score: 7 / 10. Personal score: 5 / 10.
