THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This ep is about the archery comperition between 5 clans. This part in the novel is only 5 paragraphs so I'm glad I can see it fully on anime.

I can't stop laughing at LWJ when he lost his headband LOL. HIS EXPRESSION IS JUST THAT GOOD.



The subtle change on JC's face when he heard WWX ranks 1 in the competition, from happy to surprise to sad and then to happy again 😭

Also look! LWJ is so cute when he turns to his brother for comfort when his headband was taken off 😂

Holy shit! A fellow Vancouverite that likes MDZS too!
I'm gonna buy a lottery ticket, lol.



I haven't watched this episode yet, I gotta wait till it's released to the masses.

Also, if you're so inclined, there's a episode discussion over on the r/Donghua subreddit.

I've read that there will be 15 episodes and that there will be 3 seasons.

So 45 episodes?
Or is it overall 15?


I guess it would have to be 45 episodes. If it were 15 episodes across 3 seasons season 1 would be over already.

lmao trust wwx to not remember things that don't interest him aka GusuLan sect rules, even though he once copied them several times over XD. I wonder what lwj was thinking when wei ying pulled of his head tie, since I'm guessing he's already sorta kinda interested in wwx by this time?

Next episode will be the start of the angst, anger, and everything else...

You shouldn't mess with the Lan's headband, Wei Wuxian learned the hard. Even though he dropped out he was still in the top 4 what a great guy.

Grats to Wei Wuxian though for placing 1st, I guess hunting for pheasants paid off. That Wen guy is a jerk though, I hope we will be seeing him in future

Unknown for now.

But judging by how good it is, it'll soon catch-on with dubs. Maybe.

Will probably still prefer the original Chinese voice-overs. It is impeccably stunning and have complex nuances that I predict will be lost in translation.

-

This episode was so well done, completely captured the gentleness of the adorable cinnabun Wen Ning with his well timed smiles. And Lan Wang Ji's very nimble, very accurate shot well substantiated his fourth place ranking even though he dropped out early. Slow clapping my way to episode 8...

Also, Wen Chao is hateful af. Hope he dies.

Well, since wwx also managed to beat wangji's older brother, it's doubtful he wouldn't have had that 1st place even with wangji competing fully. Lwj would probably be third, below big brother.

The archery competition was intense and beautifully done! Looks like Wei went too far with his prank, I knew he was gonna go pull it LOL SOOO that was Wen Ning while he was alive, he had a friendly encounter with Wei, no wonder Wei was able to summon him as a necromancer.
