I envy you for being able to binge it instead of waiting patiently every week :)

Interesting, because I feel that the opposite is true; it's not at all like all the other BL series we've seen before.

Can I ask which region you are in? I made a post in Discussions with the link to YouTube, but if not everyone can access it, it would be useful to add that info.

It drops with subs on WeTV very early Thursday morning at 01.30 am, Thai time, which will still be Wednesday for a lot of the rest of the world (18.30 / 6.30 pm UTC).

I can watch it! Super happy that they are making this available officially and legally. So even if I watch it with a VPN I will definitely rewatch it on YouTube to support them.

I know it's out on pirate sites like Dailymotion and others, but watching it there will not support the creators and actors.

The Irozuku sub for ep 3 is out: https://irozuku.org/fansub/drama/nishiogikubo-mitsuboshi-youshudou-ep-03/
A little bit late this time, but I'm happy someone is doing it!

That is not legal either :)

They are reuploading the series one episode per week with English subtitles. They are only at episode 3 so far.

I've seen the same thing in other Asian series (My Bromance, for instance). Makes you wonder if this is something that is common in Thai/Asian society, or if it's just a weird narrative trope to set up a certain dynamic (sudden out-of-the-blue stepsiblings).

As a westerner growing up in a context where it's normal with separated and recombined families, it seems very strange to not introduce your kids to your new S.O. and their kids, letting them get to know each other and ease them into the new relationship before formalising it. Doing it this way in my country would be the sign of terrible parenting, whereas here it's obviously not intended to be that at all -- the boys' parents seem nice and kind, far from abusive , selfish or indifferent. It's kind of mindboggling.

Yeah, I didnt find it boring at all. I was captivated from the start.

Yeah, that's just creepy. Even if they are actually not that far apart agewise, it's still all kinds of unethical.

I know, right? It's so weird

Is it just me, or is there something off with the coding on this page? I don't experience any problems with other pages on MDL, but this one is out of alignment somehow (half of the thumbnails in the left column are cut off), and the discussion topic with all the watch links aren't showing up on the main page even though it's there when you click "Recent Discussions".

I agree, I am in love with it! The visuals are amazing, such pretty cinematography, and the martial arts scenes are beautifully choreographed -- and the FLIRTING, OMG. YouTube is full of comments like "How did this get past the censors!?" I am also very happy that Gong Jun decided to do another "BL" drama, and this one looks to be a big hit.

Thank you!

An uncensored Taiwanese spinoff movie would have been awesome!

So this is a kind of spinoff movie with an earlier incarnation of Zhao Yunlan, during the Republican era? Then I get the recasting, but they could have kept Zhu Yilong as Shen Wei... Except that would have been unfair to Bai Yu, I guess. Anyway, it might be terrible or great. I guess we'll see.

Hey Hikari! :) I didn't know about Mo Du /Light the Darkness, thanks for that.
I really wanted to like Legend of Fei, not least for Wang Yibo, but it couldn't hold my interest. : /

The impossible choice of either having to wait for new episodes (and be having severe withdrawal) or to wait for the entire series and binge it (and be unable to talk to others about it in the mean time)

I'm pretty sure Priest is a woman, though I could be wrong -- but yes, only Guardian so far before now.
EDIT: It seems that Legend of Fei is also based on a novel by Priest. Sorry about that.
