New Mo Dao Zu Shi manga

I just found out about this adaptation, I really hope it's more faithful because I really hated the first one.

At least it helps to distract from the fact that MXTX hasn't published anything for years, I hope it's because they're too busy enjoying the money they've made and not because of the tightening of censorship.

At least if it's because she's keeping a low profile to avoid sanctions she should have made quite a bit of money. In Japan, MDZS's LN went to the top of the sales charts. Probably at least one Japanese publisher who would publish it directly should exist.

Some people were even gathering evidence online to prove that between the 19th and 24th, when she updated his profile saying that the annunced novel do not fit her writing anymore, she was in prison because of what she published. Even the possibility of it being true is scary but it would explain why she hasn't given interviews or collected international awards.

It seemed strange to me that when they published MDZS in my country there wasn't even a message from her, and it was a big thing, the biggest marketing campaign I've ever seen done for an LN, a lot of interviews with people involved, the book sold in paper format everywhere. When publishers make so much noise it's because they usually invite the author to a comic con, but there hasn't even been a two-line post from her.
I've always found it strange, unless there's some real impediment ignoring all the publicity campaigns done for your book and all the prizes you get is quite ungrateful, I don't think she's disconnected from the world just to concentrate on writing of a novel and this is really sad.

@Shiroyaki The Chinese government has also been strict about travel for the past 4-5 years. At first it was due to Covid, but now it's due to people leaving the country forever and taking their money with them. Some people have even reported having their passports destroyed at the airport and being refused passage onto a flight to force them to remain in China. Even if she's not jailed, she may not be allowed to leave the country and the Great Firewall would limit her access to outside communication. Yeah, lots of Chinese used ladders (their slang for VPNs) but famous people are watched more closely so not all are willing to take the chance. Especially with plans for their new ID sign-up policy that would require you to show ID to access websites.
