35. Watching Mo Dao Zu Shi Because Wei Wuxian Can Get It (PART ONE)

This week, Natasha forces Jessica to watch Mo Dao Zu Shi, a Chinese show about two gay crime detectives who chase ghosts (that sounds right, that's probably right). We discuss just how dang fast you need to be able to read to keep up with the subtitles on this show, how absolutely gorgeous the animation is, and how difficult it must be to watch any media where you do not know the established tropes and myths of that culture. All of that probably sounds great and philosophical. But that's not us. Really, we're here because Wei Wuxian is hot. He's really evil and he's really stupid and he doesn't want to admit he's evil but, you know, he's hot. And isn't that what television is really about? Being horny for cartoon characters? In part one of our Mo Dao Zu Shi episode, we recap the pilot episode and have an absolutely wild time.
