Let's go. I can finally binge rewatch season 2 and the reactions at the same time.

Okarun

What happened to horror movies? is she even gonna react to stuff like the nun, insidious or anything actually cool? She'll love it

I just wanted to say thank you for giving this series another chance. I know it wasn’t officially dropped, but I feel like it wasn’t on the roster since you were so busy with moving and all that(totally understandable!!) But man, this is one of my comfort shows and having you finish it out so close to s3 makes me so so happy. Rewatching this season with you when my year has been the most stressful thus far is a blessing. Thank you again so much and I cannot wait till s3 and the movie comes out!! PS: My mom says hi :]

Shisui was really the MVP of S2, from befriending Maomao and Xiaolan, to saving the empire from a takeover by her deranged family; from ensuring a long-lost princess (Suirei) wasn’t executed after living hell on earth her entire life, to enduring children of the Shi clan “died” and scamming the Empire to acknowledge them as clear when they woke from their sleep… and then survived her own execution and got to live her happily ever after. she put in the work this season. It’s also nice seeing that while Maomao is emotionally-stunted, she’s not emotionless, as she teared up over Xiaolan’s and Shisui’s goodbye letters. She lost two really good friends this season, which taught her the importance of having them.

Only just noticing on this watch that the hairpin has a bullet dent in it in the final scene.

Honor Rosenfeld

If you look closely at the hairstick there's a dent from the bullet. Mao Mao giving Shisui that hairstick saved her life. Also, just like how she chose the servant name Shisui because it was her sister's name she chose the name Tamamo to remind her of Mao Mao.🥹😭

Aliulo

Man. What a goated show. ALSO IT'S COMING BACK IN OCTOBER WITH A COUR, THEN A MOVIE, THEN ANOTHER COUR IN APRIL AAAAAAAAAA

Okoga

Alicia falling for the classic no body no death after how many One Piece episodes?

Abraxolotl

Ohh damn! I completely missed that on my read/first watch! That makes total sense! Thanks for pointing it out.

DocteurNS

I'm very curious what the show does next, because this basically wrapped up the entire main plot from basically episode 1 of season 1. I can only assume something fishy related to the western envoys. And I know from the S3 trailer that there's something about a famine and some supposed mystic... witch... prophetess... person.

Better yet, She is planning to sail across the ocean, Which locationally, would be Japan, where the name Tamamo is the name of a famous devious fix trickster spirit,implying that the myths ARE based on her going to Japan and tricking and deceiving the people as a crafty fox.

BirthdayParty

Specifically, Tamamo is the story of a demon fox who bewitched the emperor by pretending to be a courtesan, and was eventually "sealed away" under a rock by a sorcerer. So either Shisui passed down her story until it became a myth, or she pulled off the whole "become Courtesan, Seduce Emperor, Fake Death" shtick twice in one life. And I think both are equally possible given how smart she is XD.

ScarecrowGhost

I read so many Maomao × Shisui fanfics and looked at so much fan art after I finished this arc.

Jackie Rollins

In case it wasn't obvious she's selling the dented hairpin that saved her life from a bullet dent and giving her new name Tamamo AKA the Nine tailed fox to the merchant so that it will end up back with Mao Mao as she said it was unique enough it would get back to Jinshi if she sold it.

"Why's this anime bullshit happening in my anime!?" A question I've asked many a time.

Eli

thats kind of condescending.

KatoBen

My thought cannon is that she decided to get it out of the way because of season 3.

KatoBen

Finally! The whole reason I subbed for so many years! I can finally drop my sub. . . LMAO, JK. Shisui did tell Maomao that she might sell the hairpin. I'm just surprised she didn't react to the fact that the hairpin saved Shisui's life. Edit: I can't wait for her reaction to season 3. I expedct some good reactions based on the story to come. Do note that the end of season 2 was the original planned ending to the book, but the story was popular enough that the author opted to continue it.

Cody Dennings

22:23 Yeah, it had to happen that way didn't it? Anime gonna Anime regardless. It's like having a beach episode, you can't not have a beach episode, so obviously that's what happens lmfao.

slavicandsapphic

17:14 The subtle way of the anime showing how Maomao’s slowly forgetting what Xiaolan looks like. im fine

slavicandsapphic

ALSO please watch the opening and ending!! They’re both tributes to Shisui as a character.

Atar

Such a great show

I don't know if you'll ever read these, but I'll share anyway: This episode made me leave work early after lunch and retire for a full workday... it broke me. 😭 Loulan/Shisui was best girl in this show and is easily one of my top 5 female characters of all time. There are great characters everywhere, but in terms of a human girl you can actually relate to, she stole my heart. Even knowing she survived, my 36-year-old ass still cries at her "exit" performance. And btw, Shisui fully expected to die there. The hairpin Maomao gave her saved her life—you can see the bullet dent in it during the trade. She then traded it knowing it would eventually find its way back to Maomao, with the dent proving she survived. She trusted Maomao to put two and two together and realize she was alive and happy somewhere, while keeping it vague enough that nobody else would know. Another fun fact: Shisui didn't know the cicada was jade because she's color-blind. She probably thought it was just some regular gem—red or something—and liked it because it was a bug. Only when the trader told her it was jade (green) did she swap it for the super-expensive hairpin. Her new name is part of the message too: "gyoku" (jade, like the Jade Pavilion) and seaweed (Maomao's hair color). Combined with the hairpin, Maomao eventually has everything she needs to figure out who traded it, why, and that she's alive. More importantly, it answers Maomao's lingering question: "I never really understood what Loulan thought of me in the end." Loulan originally chose "Shisui" by taking the name of the sister she loved dearly. Now, beginning another life, she once again chooses a name connected to someone she loves—this time Maomao. She carried her sister with her as Shisui, and now carries Maomao with her into her new life. It's her answer to the one mystery Maomao couldn't solve: Loulan's true feelings toward her. She loved her and saw her as a sister. There's another layer too: her new name references the Japanese folktale of Tamamo-no-Mae, a beautiful and highly intelligent woman in the Japanese imperial court who was revealed to be a fox spirit. Versions of the legend connect that same fox to women in China and India, crossing countries and taking new identities before becoming Tamamo-no-Mae in Japan. (Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamamo-no-Mae) It's a fitting parallel: Loulan is another brilliant, elusive "fox" woman from an imperial court who is believed dead, abandons her old identity, crosses the sea, and starts over under a new name. And ironically, her mother kept telling her, "You could be the next Mother Royal," meaning the mother of the nation. Loulan does parallel the Mother Royal, just not as her mother intended: she leaves the imperial court and her homeland to live in another country. In the end, she becomes a combination of both stories: the Mother Royal who crossed between nations and Tamamo, the fox who left one identity behind for another. Which makes Jinshi's description of her even more perfect: "She was a fox till the end. ;)"

While I usually avoid hijackings of a current post to ask about antoher show, I'm curious now: did she ever watch the Haunting of Hill House? if not, that could be a nice october binger if we vote for it. The show is horror genre but beautifully written and right up Alicia's alley in terms of character stories

Cyber

Man, I was trying my best to bring up this series again, even when I got laid off and couldn't afford extremely high tiers. So i want to say thank you for those who donated for everyone's enjoyment (including Alicia's), you're all the real MVPs and we hope you help push for next season 3 P1 then the movie then P2

Alberto Pika Jo

In the novels, Maomao has spent every second after leaving the fort caring for the kids hoping to bring forth any sign of life, she's desperate to believe that she was led to them for a reason. When Jinshi finds her, she is barely coherent, so he has her lay down with him more for her sake than anything. In his defense with the bodies in the room thing, I believe this is him for the first time in years being "off his meds" as it were, so mixed with the stress and anxiety of everything, he's a little crazed in the moment.

Derekloffin

The name Tamamo is interesting. Tamamo No Mae is a figure in Japanese mythology, and Kitsune that is said to have been quite the menace both in China and Japan. So there is a bit of parallel here with her, as the series is basically fictional China, and she's going across the sea presumably to fictional Japan. Hopefully she has a better time of it than her chosen namesake.

Vikkiloo

I doubt there will ever be a greater "high functioning autism" icon in anime than Maomao. And what a show.

Okarun

She talked about it once but I don't remember weather she watched it or not.

Okarun

Are you calling me rude? what did I do?

Cyber

Well. i was talking about myself: i didn't want to post on other videos to ask if it was ever addressed or not, so i took the opportunity here to piggy back off yours.. But I think people read your original sentence in this thread as a rant-y "erghhh when is she gonan watch the horror movies? is she ever gonna watch those? " while posting it on a reaction post for a video... So maybe if the intent was not to sound condescending, to be careful about the wording and location (audience) of things

Okarun

Nah ur good, I doubt people would care if you ask for whatever you love, you are a paying viewer afterall

Basstimefunstick

I think part one of season three is out this October, and the movie is in December.

sebas hernandez

(Havent read any books) She left a clue too, when they ask from where he got that hair pin the merchant is going to give the name, and that she mentioned something about the other side of the ocean. Basically telling our girl that she is alive and that she left

Bj Howe

Yep. Our girl deserved a little good luck after all the plans she put in motion.

bandi138138

Omg, that rant when the kid walked in, I was laughing so hard I had trouble breathing XD

Bowman C.

I mean it’s pretty obvious. Maomao did the one thing out of character by placing the one sentimental hair pin she has on her, and not on her hair either, but in front of the chest. So the moment they showed the shot through the Y of her cloth, it’s clear they are implying the bullet is stopped by the pin. Internally. She said she will put on a show. And asked for forgiveness for those who died once. She prepared the snow and leaf cushion at the bottom of that tower to catch her.
