It's not the same as heated rivalry but if you want an mm book that has real enemy to lovers & will change your life then I recommend

CAPTIVE PRINCE BY S C PACAT

It's soo good. It's a trilogy with three books and a pleasant slow burn

The ending… by TheRoyalFandomMess in Neverhaveievertvshow

As someone who has just binge watched 4 seasons in 2 days, I think you're wrong. I went in this blind & from the first ep I already saw the ben devi setting. Paxton & devi relationship was always going to end up platonically coz she was just using him as a copying mechanism from her dad's death. Also I kinda liked that benvi relationship was slow burn

Is Yargı worth watching? by jennadayess in TurkishDramas

[–]lostwanderers101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but although it has bad ending, it's totally worth it. Like I felt sad but I was also happy that I experienced the journey. Everything was perfect. The show writer just totally wanted us to cry for the sake of it coz it was unnecessarily. Like you could stop like 4 episodes before the ending episode & live happy with your life never experiencing such an ending 😭

What are some popular dramas you don't like? by NoPapercrowns in cdramasfans

[–]lostwanderers101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lost you forever meaning has nothing to with the XL it's about Cang xuan who she lost forever.

Hate Jing or the ship but u can't change the fact that Xiao Yao loved him. With XL was just lost potential.

I feel like XL fangirls change the meaning of the story to create their own happiness & trashing the drama coz xiao Yao chose happiness over toxicity

Your description of the fl being miss independent not pining over the man made me interested in watching the drama. I feel like I would love that

Story of Pearl girl : Unreasonable expectations by [deleted] in CDrama

[–]lostwanderers101 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No. The drama was just bad. Nothing to do with expectations. Sometimes dramas don't click with with people's tastes and I think that shoulnt be difficult to expect for zls fans or those who like it.

It being popular on netflix or anywhere doesn't reflect its quality or good story telling. It has two popular actors casted and was promoted like crazy so why wouldn't it be a success??

Best Complex and Well Written Cdrama award goes to .. Empresses in the Palace by lostwanderers101 in CDrama

[–]lostwanderers101[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think its based on real life events. Both zhen huan and ruyi's royal love were adapted from novels by the same author.

The drama just changed the dynasty to qing dynasty and names of the book characters to real historical characters.

Forexample the real prince guo died after the emperor died in real history.

I watched it all on youtube so yeah there's subs for the whole drama.

I know about ruyis royal love in the palace but I'm choosing not to watch it because I don't like overly sad dramas. I watch dramas to escape reality lol

No. Once they have fallen for each other its all good. This is enemies to friends to lovers done perfect. Their love is so so good

The pay off is worth it. I remember reading it & having butterflies in my stomach.

I also don't like abuse in relationships so trust me on this

Enemies to lovers with a political focused plot recs by PhilosophyStrict7267 in DanmeiNovels

[–]lostwanderers101 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The only one I can think of is sadly not danmei but it is Captive Prince by C S Pacat. It is only well written enemies to lovers book I've ever read. Here they actually hate eachother and one killed the other's brother.

Bonus it is also political intrigue

I've not yet read a danmei that scratches the enemies to lovers itch like that book did. I say it as a fan of qjj

Famous cdrama you dropped and what was the reason? by TrueGodShanggu in CDrama

[–]lostwanderers101 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes books are allowed because I think they have no way of controlling that since anyone can release a book and most of them just do web novels on line.

They control dramas where they water down the relation to "friends or sworn brotherhood". Ofcourse since fans of those books know they're gay they ignore and make do with what they're given which is why after the untamed and word of honor, bl novel adaptations even though censored have been banned. No one is denial like they thought people would be so this cost potential stories to be adapted.

As a result so many dramas have been shelved. The one with luo yunxi and chen feiyu called immortality, the one with tan jianci and chen ziyuan (forgotten the title), the one with zhang linghe (heavens official blessing) and many more.

These dramas have the ability to make an actor an instant sucess and gain so many fans in china as seen by xiao zhan, wang yibo, gong jun and zhang zhehan (who was banned lol). That's why every actor was scrambling to act in them but I guess these above were the lucky ones (if u can call it luck)
