Lin Xiaoyu/Sun Rong
This show is totally hilarious, and just about every episode had me dying. The modern xianxia worldbuilding is super fun, and I was way too amused by all the random anime and video game references, from Dragon Ball to Assassin's Creed. There are two seasons so far, and both are streaming on Funimation.
I really enjoyed Sun Rong's character development as well as the fact that her spirit sword is The Coolest. I'd really like to see any kind of focus on her, but feel free to get the rest of the cast involved! I love everyone.
Fandom-specific DNW: Sun Rong/Wang Ling as an endgame romantic ship (mentioning her canon crush on him for plot purposes is totally fine)
-Sun Rong character study, stuff about the pressure she has as the heir and her rivalry with Tang Jingze
-Get togethers, cute dates, any kind of fun romance for Xiaoyu/Sun Rong
-Anything about Sun Rong's spirit sword training or Xiaoyu's job at the forge
-Wang Ling and the guys help Sun Rong and Xiaoyu get together, maybe involving the use of Wang Ling's powers
Launcher/Striker
Crusader & Inquisitor
Dungeon N' Fighter Duel: A fighting game based on a very cool, albeit very grindy MMORPG! Given the genre, feel free to lean more into the fighting aspects and character interactions than the plot.
-Going from fighting to friendship/romance
-Hanging out at the tavern or on the Oceanic Express, sharing stories, opening up about their pasts
-Any kind of wacky worldbuilding from the Dungeon Fighter universe
-Angst and tragedy are pretty much a given for this, but I'd totally be open to something more contemplative, especially if it's something to do with Chang An
-Any kind of missing scene, maybe between Qi Qiao and her children, or maybe another instance where she got the best of Qizi
-Themes of love vs money
-Something about pre-canon Qi Qiao when she was more vulnerable
Koo Kyung-yi/K | Song Yi-kyung
Scrungy Lee Young Ae is a revelation in this murder mystery series about a quirky detective being lured out of seclusion. Kim Hye-jun revels in being a completely over the top murder girl, and I am here for anything about the two of them together.
-Anything with gamer Kyung-yi! Her intro scene in the first episode made me feel seriously called-out. (It appears the game she's playing is Lineage II, using the mobile UI for some reason...)
-Canon divergence where Kyung-yi was able to get closer to Yi-Kyung earlier on, maybe some of the casualties end up being saved?
-Something about Yi-kyung's planning process with Drama/Theatrical themes
-Yi-kyung POV, developing an obsessive crush and acting on it
-Past Kyung-yi vs Present Kyung-yi and either of their thoughts about the change
-For art/imagery: anything based on the animated intro and credit segments would be fun, or just anything contrasting the two of them
Lee Yeon Saeng
Lee Yeon Saeng & Seo Jang Geum
-Jang Geum and Yeon Saeng making a dish together or supporting each other through hard times
-Anything about Lady Choi’s machinations or a glimpse inside her mind. She terrifies me.
-More about Yeon Saeng’s life as a concubine or the quiet ways she supports Jang Geum later in life
-Joseon dynasty food porn!!!
Mamiya Haruichi/Main Character
Yanase Ayumi/Main Character
Thank you nominator, for putting this in the tagset! I still love this game and all the ways it pokes fun at the dating sim genre. These are some of my favorite ships, and I will be happy to see anything about them! The live action movie gave MC the name Kana Sakurai, so feel free to go by that or use any other name you like!
Adventure, romance, angst, fluff, anything works for me! Feel free to go off the canon/Lover's Routes or go on in an AU direction.
-I remember that in one of the Liar File sidestories it's shown that Haruichi and Kazumi do NOT get along, and the reason for that is because Kazumi's mystery writer's intuition leads him way too close to guessing Haruichi's secret. It might be fun to see how that plays out and how it would affect their relationship with MC.
-Out of love for the MC, Haruichi attempts to have the Mamiya Family go legitimate (yakuza tech support?). What would that mean for their relationship and for Haruichi himself?
-Given Kazumi's reluctance to emotionally commit to a relationship because of his condition, I kind of like the idea of him and MC settling on being friends-with-benefits. Maybe it works out for a while, but then the feelings become too intense to ignore.
-Ayumi is so happy when she does something to make MC proud of her (for ex: that time she put on an Octokitty suit and saved the party in the Halloween event). More of that would be great to see. Or maybe some bizarre/dramatic wedding planning incidents?
-Honeymoon, chill outings or married life, anything with MC doing something nice for her romantic partner would be cool!
-Missing scenes, first times
-Fielding questionable romantic advice from Yuri, Sachi, or other friends
-Visiting Johnny the fortune teller as a couple
Available to watch here on Youtube.
This is just a fun, lighthearted show about talented chef who transmigrates back to the Song Dynasty. A second season came out last year which introduced a lot of fun new characters and food battles. Cute foodie fluff is basically what this request is all about, but I'm aware the novel this is based on is much, much darker, and I wouldn't mind that being referenced.
-Identity porn about Jiayao's thoughts on being her original self vs Ye Jinxuan/Li Yao
-Anything about her relationship with Helian Jing, whether shippy or friendshippy. An AU where he actually wins out in the love triangle??
-Absolutely anything about her cooking or with extremely dramatic food reactions
More than anything else, this film left me wanting to see more of Geum-ja being active and willing to harness her many talents for revenge. (A note just in case anyone wants to check this out - warnings for M/F and F/F noncon as well as animal and child harm).
-More missing scenes from her days in prison
-Something about making pretty cakes while plotting bloody revenge
-Anything inspired by the baroque soundtrack
-Saving the puppy somehow
-If we match on art (or if you want to include it as a visual description), I really love Geum-ja’s red eyeshadow look
This film was so heartwarming and beautiful in its simplicity. It was wonderful to see Satsuki and Kamiyama's mentor/student relationship unfold, and I just wanted to see more of them being there for one another and studying Kamiyama's art.
-Quiet moments after training with Kamiyama opening up to Satsuki, dispensing advice, etc
-Minutiae about daily life around the studio or theme park
-What happens in the time skip after Satsuki gets her big break?
-Kamiyama being a part of Satsuki's life post-movie (alive or as a ghost, however you want to interpret the ending)
Gu Fei & Svelte Dancer
It turns out I just can't get enough of Butterfly Blue's MMORPG epics! This novel largely revolves around Gu Fei's VR kung fu exploits, but I thought Xi Xiaotian and Svelte Dancer were super fun companions and would have loved to see more of them! Video game pay-2-win is a controversial issue irl, but I don't mind it here with Svelte Dancer if it's played for laughs!
-Xi Xiaotian tries to scam Virtual World's biggest whale. It doesn't go the way she planned
-Gu Fei and Svelty just having fun tearing it up in PVP together
-Anything humorous about Svelte Dancer's pay-to-win tendencies, absurdly overpowered items, etc.
Thank you so much for your time! If any clarification is needed, please let me know.
