This is the perfect series for the people who want the angst and all the "Meatbun tropes" but without the heaviest trigger warnings that come with 2ha and especially Case file compendium. It's pure angst (with a happy ending tho), even more than 2ha, but it's not as hardcore as the other two series. For the rest, Meatbun loves her tropes. The top is always the protagonist, which is pretty rare in danmei, and always hates the bottom but also wants to have sex with him 🤣 the bottom is always older (in Yuwu the age gap is the smallest out of the 3 series) and seems like a terrible person but in reality is pure perfection. Then there is a lot of pain, lots of misunderstandings and a LOT of sex scenes, like, a LOT. That's literally Meatbun style. She made her Twitter account while she was publishing Case file compendium just to be able to post even more sex scenes that the Chinese platform wouldn't let her post 🤣 she is a queen. But yes, super good book, support it if you can!
@@wangnan173 There are similar vibes if I can call them that, but no actual SA between the two main characters, that's only present in 2ha and Case file compendium. Yuwu is a middle ground because Meatbun got a lot of hate for 2ha and tried to tone down the problematic aspects before going back to them with Case file compendium. So Yuwu, while tragic, is not as hardcore as the other two
“Gu mang’s memories are in shambles” “it’s probably mostly to prevent secrets from leaking” … I don’t wanna spoil anything but as someone who has read yuwu.. I say goodluck when you find out how he lost his memories :)) (I literally sobbed in that scene)
@@Wanning8492 2ha almost made me cry with a lot of scenes but I somehow prevented myself but with yuwu.. I almost lost my sanity. So now after I read guardian, I’m preparing myself for case file compendium soo- 🥲
Reviewing danmei novels via meme-filled powerpoints and voiceover commentary is a genius way to fill a niche I never knew existed. Literally love your videos they make me genuinely bust out laughing
Man being able to power through the entire book before the second volume release? My ADHD ass could never. Haven’t gotten the book but it could be a fun read once I finish reading tgcf first volume
She did such an amazing job articulating and explaining Yuwu! I had read the fan translation a few years back, and the ANGST was on a different level! Pain, pain, pain, and just more pain from start to finish 😩
Loved the review! Yuwu and 2ha are set in the same universe but yuwu actually happens a few centuries earlier, which is why the world is so different. There are a few 2ha easter eggs buried closer to the end though!
@@srushed spoiler warning for ppl who haven't finished both 2ha and yuwu but . . . . . . . off the top of my head, ximang meet a young lady with black-purple eyes and dimples driving a boat who's implied to be one of mo ran's ancestors, and yuwu's chu family are implied to be distant ancestors of chu xun and chu lan. murong chuyi's unfinished blueprints are buried under the yandi sacred tree, which huazui later used to create chu wanning - hence his interest in mechanisms and engineering. I think there was also a line in there about the spirit of the tree being ready to incarnate and live a life in the mortal world
Haven't watched the video yet but just know you should all read yuwu IT'S SO GOOD (also I cried) Gu Mang and Mo Xi (and others characters too tho I feel that's a spoiler) have my heart ❤ I love them so much ❤️
I read this novel last year and it was pain and angst like no other, it makes 2ha seem like a happy story. Prepare yourself before reading this, my heart broke reading yuwu.
You have no idea how much this story traumatized me lmaooo The jar thing? I literally burst into tears when you started talking about it omgggg Erha was bad but yuwu literally destroyed me 🥲🫠 Thank you so much for talking about it 😭 This meatbun knife is not something I completely enjoyed I will tell you 🥲
Kictor you're the best 😭 I love Stitch's book corner ❤ I was staying away from meatbun coz of the angst but the way stitch describes it makes me want to read it 😭
I’ve been waiting for this review for so long! Thank you guys! Your videos help me heal from the trauma. Honestly Yuwu destroyed me and I didn’t read for a whole month after finishing it. Erha is fluff in comparison. You’re in for a ride about Murong Chuyi. There are so many Easter eggs between Yuwu and Erha. You’re in for a ride on pretty much everything you said actually. My response to so many things was just like “oh, honey…” 😂 It’s great though.
Was waiting for this review for so long! I have read volume 1 and now waiting for volume 2! I really love meatbun’s writing! P.S the beefleaf earrings are so cute 🥹
Stitch should read meatbun notes at the end of the chapters of the original publication. Really so funny to go through a traumatizing chapter just to reach the notes of the author comparing dick sizes and making little funny theaters
I just started reading this as my first story by Meatbun and all I can say is Mo Xi reminds me of Jiang Cheng. If MDZS JC has his own perspective, its probably like this. Hatred and being conflicted after being betrayed is one of his character's theme. He also summon a snake whip to tie up Gu Mang. But I think Mo Xi is more like a lovechild between Jiang Cheng and Lan Wangji. He's mix of those. Oh! Stitch probably forget it but no one actually touch Gu Mang all his years in the brothel because of his neck thingy that protects him so they just mostly starve him as punishment.
Wait a dam minute. I made my dad a tie-dye shirt two years before I started watching your vids and I am just now see that the shirts that you two are wearing looks exactly like his.
What I recognised, can it be that Remnants of Filth takes place before 2ha? Because I stumbled over a different name for the Sichuan region in the former with the footnote that this will be called Sichuan later on.
After u told that Gu Mang's master put him in a brothel and the way you described it, made me yell after pausing the video that, "SO HE WAS PUT TO PROSTITUTION?!?!?!? Now thats f***ed up"
They are responsible for getting me started with that danmei...and my heart bleeds for the lead characters. At the moment I can count on one hand the persons I want protected and the rest of the nation can burn for all I care.😈
spoiler** one thing that really made me cry so much is the fact that tho gu mang was put up for prostitution, the "clients" were not really able to 🍇 him because of the pair of lotus sigils he and mo xi made to protect each other 😭 that is why they always beat him to death

Kictor: (sees Gu Mang sttab Mo Xi in the heart) So they have a misunderstanding.
Queen of understatement.
“the meatbun effect” i was laughing my ASS OFF BAHAAHA

so there's no recollection of forcing oneself on another, right? it really bothered me in 2ha

Global university entrance examination was my first bl novel it will always have a special place in my heart
I plan to read that one after I finish what happens when the second male lead powers up
It's so good 🥰 ppl should really give it a try
It's getting translated in English by Rosmei!

Love you girls!

Why are you awake at this ungodly hour 😂😂 also just finished the first volume 2 days ago so I can't wait to start the second today ❤❤
Just kidding, Amazon has decided to not show any love to Kindle readers saying it won't download until next Tuesday 😭😭
You have no idea how much this story traumatized me lmaooo
The jar thing? I literally burst into tears when you started talking about it omgggg
Erha was bad but yuwu literally destroyed me 🥲🫠
Thank you so much for talking about it 😭
This meatbun knife is not something I completely enjoyed I will tell you 🥲
The sandwich contains "pastrauma"
Kictor you're the best 😭 I love Stitch's book corner ❤ I was staying away from meatbun coz of the angst but the way stitch describes it makes me want to read it 😭
Oh meatbun. That circle graph is perfect
single handedly convinced me to read any meatbun book
I’ve been waiting for this review for so long! Thank you guys! Your videos help me heal from the trauma.
Honestly Yuwu destroyed me and I didn’t read for a whole month after finishing it. Erha is fluff in comparison.
You’re in for a ride about Murong Chuyi. There are so many Easter eggs between Yuwu and Erha.

I love that stitch is giving us lecture on meatbun 101. Funniest thing ever 😂😂😂
Stitch should read meatbun notes at the end of the chapters of the original publication. Really so funny to go through a traumatizing chapter just to reach the notes of the author comparing dick sizes and making little funny theaters
Ok a new series to buy….(I haven’t even finished SVSSS or 2ha)
Also, you really don't NEED to read erha to understand this book at all. I didn't read erha and I heavily enjoyed this book.
I'M SO PSYCHED FOR THIS!! I WAS WAITING FOR YOU TO COVER THIS!!
Show me your a Dom without telling me your a Dom; proceeds to pull out a studded collar 😂😊
finished the first volume today i’m so excited to get to the second one
Stitch could you please talk more about the shitbag of a master of Gu Mang, Mr. MRL, in future videos etc because he is the love of my life lol 😂
watching this over again after reading book 4 is crazy cause there's so much they say that isn't true or has more layers to it 😭😭
YES OMG!!! I'VE BEEN WAITING FOT THIS, THANK YOU SO MUCH
someone needs to link this video to meatbun.
wanting to kill the object of your obsession reminded me of fyolai and now im sad
Another series to add to the list!
All I remember is Yuwu ran me over like a top speed train! (And I enjoyed it❤)
OMG THIS IS ANOTHER WELCOME TO ANOTHER WORLD OF ANGST BY MEATBUN😂
Yuwu is so good yall
