    ...I don't know if I'm right or dirtily wrong but is there a reference to chrysanthemum/butthole?

    Fun fact, in Chinese art, each season is associated with a flower.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Gentlemen

    -the plum blossom for winter
    -the orchid for spring
    -the bamboo for summer
    -the chrysanthemum for autumn <---- Autumn in Chinese is Qiu and Qingqiu means 'Clear Autumn'.

    On a different but related-ish note, this song strongly reminds me of Shen Jiu/Yue Qi:

    I DIED LAUGHING AT THAT HAHA
    and no the reference isn't to the chrysanthemum, rather it's a reference to an affectionate nickname headcanon, BUT IN ALL HONESTY IT SHOULD BE ABOUT THE CHRYSANTHEMUM. That fucking made my day--Bless your soul.

    37 has just been published. Oh boy, our dearest Shizun is all tied up and got whipped by a bitch but he was saved by our Bing-mei.

    It's the usual "hero saves the beauty" scene but SQQ seems to think it's the "out of the frying pan, into the fire" scene instead.

    There are some translated segments but not the entire extra, IIRC.

    Translated segments: 1,2,3,4

    I was thinking about your comments here before reading the chapter. And the first line there was about Shizun getting blindfolded...with ropes and whips and blindfolds, I started to imagine the chapter going in a very different direction lol. Thank you for you and your team's hard work!

    I have been interested in a curious thing for a long time ... There is a great doujinshi according to the book. I have been looking for all its parts for a long time in order to bring them together. I wanted to show here (probably not everyone saw it), but the arts, of course, 18+. I hope, I will not be banned for such content?.. :blob_grin:

    Hi all for those of u who dun mind using uncle google translate while reading (u may need to do the webcam plus google trick as there seems to be anti copy and paste code), here's a site of Scum Villain in Chinese with main chapters as well as extras:
    yiayia6217 (dot) blog (dot) fc2 (dot) com (slash) blog-entry-465 (dot) html

    As an ethnic Chinese MXTX fans personaaly I found MDZS is more mature in style and plot, but Scum Villain is much more hilarious and fun in nature.
    Compare nature of characters between two novels:
    MDZS WWX → mixture of SV 沈清秋 plus 洛冰河 with the heroic ideal of 謝憐 in 天官賜福
    MDZS LWJ → SV 柳清歌 (Actually at one of the extras 「記一次與柳巨巨打魅妖的經過」 it hinted that actually 柳清歌 has a crush with 沈清秋 and loads of fans love this ship)

    Might be just me, but I think LWJ is not only 柳清歌 (if you think so) but also with a bit of 漠北君(as what was shown in the Airplane bro extras)--just not as obsessed with hitting or hurling insults at other people, not as arrogant and self-entitled, and not as easily annoyed (Unless you count LWJ's teenage years). Just how I see it lol.

    Then again, I made some commentaries in the Airplane bro extras about similarities with the 6-chapters long extra and MDZS' two protagonists--so I actually might be wrong here tbh due to bias... :blobconfounded:

    Hi Mizu, as this is a literature review instead of a science journal, of course it is perfectly okay to have different interpretation on the same story! No absolute right and wrong, unless there are noticeable fault in logic or contradiction with canon novel I think.
    Haha yes I agree 漠北君 may have some personalities which coincides with LWJ. Nevertheless I personally found the tsundere, milder nature of 柳,always helpful and willing to fight for 師尊 resemble a but more (I admit I have bias too, I like 柳巨巨 wakaka:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:)

    Uh, we are not supposed to post the really hardcore stuff here but I guess you could link it. Or tell us how to google it.

    In this case, I will carefully put the link to the doujinshi folder in the spoiler with a warning. Although there is nothing hardcore ... I guess. Ah ~ :blobnosebleed: All pictures are numbered in the correct order so that confusion does not happen.

    :'D Do you, by chance, know the actual source? Like Weibo or some other website? I'd like to check out more of the artist's work, but I'm actually pretty dumb with trying to find their page (if they have one).

    /stares at the 15 tabs open that were used (and failed) to find the artist's website

    If I'm not mistaken, the artist's nickname is 老历茅台.
    Here, this is her weibo: https://www.weibo.com/u/2976469823?refer_flag=1005055010_&is_hot=1
