    This may be off topic and somewhat late, but here is a response to Action's remarks about my review for Conquest.

    Chinese Reactions to Novelupdates/Wuxiaworld/Reddit Reviews

    My definition of Wuxia is Chinese literature about heroes and martial arts rather than specifically literature about Chinese heroes doing martial arts in ancient China. I find that in Chinese literature there is a certain style in the writing that distinguishes it from its Western counterparts. So even though the setting is from Western inspired culture, the structure and prose is very Chinese and shares more similarities with Wuxia works in general.

    I could call it a Western Fantasy novel written by a Chinese author, however calling it Wuxia to me more accurately describes to the reader the tone of the story and the structure of the plot.

    Well when I read the post they were replying to, I thought "Of course the Chinese will be the main people, it's a Chinese novel for crying out loud! Why would they write about another country?"

    If and when there's actually enough notable stuff on TL, because frankly the discussion pretty much died down.

    As for Zhihu, it's a shitty site. It's basically Chinese Quora, but worse. So it's sort of more akin to Yahoo answers in a way. Also, I've seen quite a few WW supporting comments get deleted, so it's pretty much a biased site. The first 2 threads I chose to translate were from Baidu's 2ch tieba, which is similar to that of the /r/worldnews subreddit, thus offering a less biased discussion ground.

    @Action Didn't know you were Chinese too. Where you from?

    @Action Huh, that actually sounds kinda funny if you write the words out.

    And did I actually necro this thread?

    Maybe I should reread some other Chinese reacts to us.

    The only other one I remember though was the QI fiasco.

    I think it was the only one indeed, but it wasn't nearly as fun, so... I'm going through this one~

    I think at least one mod has it watched, if it wasn't locked yet, it probably won't~

    And agreed, their reactions are absolutely priceless! \(^^)/
