    @Tony ,

    Hello, I would like to inform that this associated name for Red Packet Server is incorrectly placed. the My Amazing WeChat tag should be placed in the former link rather than the latter link. The two novels are very similar but they have different authors and they drift to different plots. (Though, chapter 1 is remarkably similar).

    My Amazing WeChat is a name coined from 我的微信连三界's manhua version. https://mangatoon.mobi/en/detail/783.

    I placed My Amazing WeChat association with the correct page but it got removed. Not sure why.

    Are you the translator? Has that translated title be used anywhere else or is it just your own interpretation of the Chinese title?

    There's so many different ways a title can be translated. Unless the translated title is used by translators or coined by a fantranslation/scanlation group at one point, don't add miscellaneous titles under that section.

    Yes. Currently, I am the translator for the novel My Amazing WeChat is Connected to the Three Realms.

    The other interpretation is through the manhua, which shortened the name to My Amazing WeChat.

    我的微信连三界
    This is the official Chinese title of the novel.

    The real name would be My WeChat is Connected to the Three Realms

    I added the 'Amazing' because it is closely tied to the manhua.


    If you need more proof, you could read the first chapter of the novel and compare it to the manhua. There are links in the first post, as well as the original title in this post.

    The novel itself is named "My Amazing WeChat is Connected to the Three Realms". I don't see the point of adding "My Amazing WeChat" in the Associated Names when it's already there in the title.

    About Red Packet Server having said title in the Associated Names, that has been removed. It probably got added by a user with little understanding of them.
