the westerners should also know that during the filming of the 1986 drama of journey to the west, the filming-team could not raise enough money to go on and was about to stop filming (their money ran out before filming the episode of fighting the red boy). and it was the actor of 100 eyed daoist who raised a large mount of money(3000000RMB) for the filming-team so the drama could be made. that actor passed away already(in 2003), but he was a great actor, this 100 eyed daoist is just one of many many roles he played in his life-time. join me in thanking him for what he did for the drama and wishing him RIP.
Thanks mate. After the research, I hope you also felt the same level of happiness when I was playing the game as a 80s born Chinese. Thanks for the great video.
The Fox Guai was Bull King's wife. The game retconned that they had a daughter Ping Ping. Bajie indeed killed her in the book but it was "off camera": he told Wukong that he killed her. Ping Ping was never mentioned in book or drama.
Ok, so, off-page means probably didn’t actually happen, we as the readers don’t concretely know for a fact whether baijie actually killed her or not, he just CLAIMS he did. Also the bull kings daughter “Ping Ping” is actually red boy in disguise. So it’s not a retcon, just a disguise. He’s using your lack of information against you
Game Science did an amazing job with Black Myth Wukong. They incorporated their creative spins into the design and story but also respected the source materials. As you play the game, you would notice their love for the project. Hope entertainment companies follow this work ethic in the future.
17:04 She is not the daughter of the Bull King, but his concubine. 17:04 The fox and the Bull King gave birth to a fox girl named Pingping, the girl you see in the game 17:04 The fox was killed by Zhu Bajie
3:30 I have seen that someone had already pointed this out but I wanted to add that the in-game fireproof mantle is supposed to be later fireproof cover (The golden shining metal thing you later see Sun Wukong cover the building his master is to cast away fire only within the artifact) in the same episode which later Sun WuKong got from one of the 4 heavenly kings GuangMuTianWang, which Sun WuKong used to just protect his master only and let the fire spread to those evil monks who started
3:38 nah, in the novel and series it's called fire avoid shield, it's a halfsphere golden frame in EP. 6 of the 86 series that Wukong borrowed from Virapaksa one of the 4 heavenly kings to protect Tang monk (in BMW when you defeated elder Jinchi and get Fireproof mantle the earth keeper told you so too). the red kasaya in series is the same yellow kasaya shown by Tang monk to elder Jinchi in the after game anime.
the kasaya is called Jin Lan kasaya, it was given by Buddisatva Guanyin together with the metal staff(EP.1) the kasaya did almost nothing for protecting Tang monk even though it had a bit of that kinda functionalities.
1:54 He is the Big Blue Guy with Elephant Pant in the game ... Largest General & the Vanguard of the Celestial Court Army , but also very weak and got beaten by Wukong easily. .... He is the first one of Celestial Court team to face Wukong.
Well, Tang San Zang, aka the monk has 4 people as bodyguards, Sun Wu Kong(the monkey) Zhu Ba Jie (the pig,), Xiao Bai Long(the horse, actually a dragon / loong), and Sa Zeng (The Second Monk looking guy which you still see in the ending of Black Myth cutscene).
Dude could you include that shot with the spider girls shooting web out of their belly buttons? I've been having trouble finding that clip!!! Which episode was it?
Kasaya and fireproof mantel are two diferent things, Fireproof mantel(originally not mantel) is a thing he borrowed from god cause wukong know they will do something fishy.
11:45 The sea monster of the fishing village in the ending cutscene is the Boss of chapter 3, Master Wukong's friend. This is the past life of both of them, they bet with each other about human nature, in good there is evil, in evil there is good. Both are Buddhist disciples of the man who imprisoned Wukong under the Five Elements Mountain for 500 years 17:18 it's not a village , that is Fire Flame Mountain range, the residence of the Ox Demon King.The only way is to put out the fire to get through. This fire was caused by Wukong 500 years ago causing a commotion in the heavenly palace that was locked in the eight trigrams furnace and fell here.This is one of Wukong's misfortunes . When locked in there, he cultivated his golden eyes. You will see those eyes in chapter 6, phase 2. The Great Saint regains 5 senses
Yes as mentioned in the video, i just picked out a few examples. There are tons of other comparisons I didn't include as well. This wasn't meant to be fully comprehensive as that would be a very long video. If there's interest with this, I may do a part 2 to include black bear guai and others

Why the baby Buddha is 7 years old? Because the actor of the Buddha in 1986 Tv series died 7 years ago, it’s a respect to him.
Wait, he passed away?!
@@kienphucnguyen2001 A lot of the actors have passed away because it's been more than 30 years.
I am surprised some none Chinese background person would dive deep and trace to the source of the story line, much appreciated !
I grew up watching this with my grandparents. I was 4-5 year old and would just watch an episode repeatedly for like 20 times lol!
well explained, there are so many details between the game and story!
boy, you are a true lover of this game! better than me as a chinese.
I grew up watching the show. I really appreciate you putting the time into this classic. Awesome!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

concubine
concubine, not wife
Hay mucho x contar de la mitología 🇨🇳.
Ok, so, off-page means probably didn’t actually happen, we as the readers don’t concretely know for a fact whether baijie actually killed her or not, he just CLAIMS he did.

Nice, thanks for linking up the game and original story
17:04 She is not the daughter of the Bull King, but his concubine.
17:04 The fox and the Bull King gave birth to a fox girl named Pingping, the girl you see in the game
17:04 The fox was killed by Zhu Bajie
Give us Westerners a break. For some of us this is the first time we have even heard of Wukong.
A great video to explain on the lore👍👍👍
Thanks!
Very good video sharing! Thanks for the effort really go in-depth the origin storyline
Thank you!

Those painted murals are a thing of beauty . I need to get them painted as wall decorations
Nice story explaining, I know many was impressed by the game graphics and the variety of BOSS fight, few would go into the story behind
Thanks!
3:38 nah, in the novel and series it's called fire avoid shield, it's a halfsphere golden frame in EP. 6 of the 86 series that Wukong borrowed from Virapaksa one of the 4 heavenly kings to protect Tang monk (in BMW when you defeated elder Jinchi and get Fireproof mantle the earth keeper told you so too). the red kasaya in series is the same yellow kasaya shown by Tang monk to elder Jinchi in the after game anime.

17:04 fox guai second wife, there's no daughter in the novel or series
17:12 yes!
4:09 ... That is GuangZhi in human form ... he is the main one has evil idea to burn the room of Tang Monk to kill him.
Can we talk about how Wukong has better hair than I do? #Jealous
😂
cuz his a monke🙉
1:54 He is the Big Blue Guy with Elephant Pant in the game ... Largest General & the Vanguard of the Celestial Court Army , but also very weak and got beaten by Wukong easily. .... He is the first one of Celestial Court team to face Wukong.
epic story, sometimes will read full story of this journey to the west
Well, Tang San Zang, aka the monk has 4 people as bodyguards, Sun Wu Kong(the monkey) Zhu Ba Jie (the pig,), Xiao Bai Long(the horse, actually a dragon / loong), and Sa Zeng (The Second Monk looking guy which you still see in the ending of Black Myth cutscene).
Dude could you include that shot with the spider girls shooting web out of their belly buttons? I've been having trouble finding that clip!!! Which episode was it?
Hey, that all takes place in Episode 21 - about 10 minutes in. Here' the link: th-cam.com/video/EfH_dPnSYS4/w-d-xo.html
4:36 ... That is one of Heavenly Kings , The guy that have the Big Sword . Other ones have weapons as the Umbrella, the Dragon, the Guitar.
JTTW is our pride
Kasaya and fireproof mantel are two diferent things, Fireproof mantel(originally not mantel) is a thing he borrowed from god cause wukong know they will do something fishy.
The series is my childhood.
That plump boy lied! He said he did not teach spellbinder to Wukong!
great job❤
Thanks!

That fan was freakin awesome in the game
Screw you Erlang
Unfortunately, the youtube version is a truncated version, and the English translation is very poor, affecting the understanding of the plot
蛮不错的（确信）！
Never saw the 86 version. I remember the 78 Japanese adaption.
because chinese knew the Japanese version to much twisted the novel, so the Chinese think we should make our own, a better Jouney to the west.
My Sifu told me the story. And Monkey magic influenced me to martial arts. So it wasn't worthless.
I can only watch this until Chapter 2, as I'm still stuck there. Watching beyond that will spoil my gameplay.
At chapter 1 section, u didn't do the comparison with black bear Guai in both versions
Yes as mentioned in the video, i just picked out a few examples. There are tons of other comparisons I didn't include as well. This wasn't meant to be fully comprehensive as that would be a very long video. If there's interest with this, I may do a part 2 to include black bear guai and others
@@Schrawgs You did a good job broe. Most people wouldn't go this far. Hope your channel grows quickly!
@MrDdz thank you!
anti-fire cover and the fire proof mantle is the same thing, wind settling pill and wind tamer is also the same thing, just translation.
i think the original series just need ray tracing
Bro, no need to show yourself and talk. Just show us the side by side comparison. Why is that too much to ask for???
Wow!! Thank you!!!
