I would have preferred if she was alive like in the novel 😔😔😔

They talk about the Grimm's Fairy Tales story about 5 minutes into EP 9 and then the Philasa Birds story in beginning of ep 10

They are being uploaded daily. So maybe more uploaded tomorrow? That gdrive account owner is doing them as fast as they can. KissKH has machine translated with timing being better eps 1 to 30.

Kiss KH has them machine translated. It looks like they are using their own machine translate because some of the wording is better and the timing is not off. With the AI twitter subs, they were off a bit on timing and some words were not translated correctly but it was better than nothing. I think if you are able to access kisskh watch them there. I know the main fansubbers have posted proper subs SRTs for eps 1 and 2, today they will post 3 and 4. The ML IRL stan is posting to daily motion but has only posted ep 2 with proper subs. I think they are trying to upload ep 1 again due to dailymotion error and soon ep 3 and 4 but daily motion only allows them to upload 10 videos. The rest are unsubbed on dailymotion playlist.

LOL I hope so too but for now we rely on free fansubbers which means it will take time for all of them to be subbed correctly. Machine translation works ok to get the gist but the human proper subbed better to get the cultural references, historical stuff, meaning behind the meaning that machines won't include LOL Like there's a partial quote from WOH LOL Idk it felt like a nod/homage and we won't know until it's officially released and they are interviewed about it, which I think they will not talk about until it's okay to talk about their BL work.

Near the end, there's a book on the coffee table with three angelic girls holding a basket called " 菲尔夏鸟 (Fēi ěr xià niǎo / Phil Summer Bird) Fisher's Birds" {Correct my pinyin if it's wrong i'm like intermediate LOL}
It's technically " Fisher's Strange Bird " a fairy tale from " The Grimm's Fairy Tales "

The story is parallel to the strange doll man and explains the doll girls. -

"Once upon a time there was a wizard who pretended to be poor and went begging from house to house, but in fact he caught pretty girls whenever he came across them. No one can tell where he took the girls, because none of the girls he took away ever came back. One day, he came to the door of a family with three beautiful girls. He was carrying a basket on his back, as if he was preparing to hold people's alms, and he looked like a weak and pitiable beggar. He asked the family to give him something to eat, and the eldest daughter came out. The wizard didn't need to touch her, and the girl would jump into his basket unconsciously, and then he would stride away towards his home deep in the forest."

The cartoon on the tv is "Grimm's Classic Fairy Tales"/Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics/Grimm Masterpiece Theater: Ao Hi Ge /Bluebeard Part 1. S1 Ep 16 from 3 February 1988 but in Chinese.
The story is about Josephine's dreams of marrying a prince seem to come true when one sends for her in her forest home. Though her brothers are wary of her wedding a man none of them has met, she accepts eagerly - but is startled by his striking beard of blue. The prince, who provides Josephine with every luxury until she becomes haughty, has only one locked, mismatched room in his castle he will not discuss. When he leaves her with his keys and instructions to see that one is not used, Josephine is lured by it to the forbidden room, and a terrible secret. - I think that story has some clues for Door 2 possibly.

-Note -
Calendar date in the room is from 1985 yet ...
China Central Television's "Windmill" program aired this animation in the early 1990s.

Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics, also known as Grimm Masterpiece Theater is グリム名作劇場
(Gurimu Meisaku Gekijō) from Japan was released on 21 October 1987 and was later dubbed in other languages .
In China it was called 格林童話劇場 (Gélín tónghuà jùchǎng) Grimm's Fairy Tale Theater

Do we think there was an error in the dates or production wanted to include the fairy tale stuff without checking the date unless time moves differently and that's why we can excuse the error?

Ep 8 references

I thought I saw somewhere that Jackson Yi was originally cast in this but I don't see it on baike baidu or douban. I saw on Douban that it's listed as Undetermined for 2026. https://movie.douban.com/subject/36163182/

There's a twitter team of fansubber + stan of Xia Zhi Guang one is doing the subs, the other is putting them in videos and posting them on daily motion since the youtube was taken down. They've done 2 episodes so far but Ep 1 is having error issues loading onto dailymotion. They won't put it on bilibili because I think kiwi is watching youtube and some sites (except kiss and drama cool LOL) to copyright strike. I don't know if it's scanning the web for their audio or the ding sound at the beginning of videos or if trolls are reporting to kiwi LOL

Ep 8 - at 06:16, Baijie is talking and you see his breathing condensation like a misty cloud as if the inside of the room is freezing cold that you see the breathing LOL

I wonder how cold this set was...

Kisskh has subbed 1 to 5:

Do you know if the person was taking the videos from N*tflix TH with english subs or were they doing it on their own? Do you have the subs files for eps 7 to 10?

Someone accidently deleted it. The user updated the settings so that only the owner can delete. SRTs are back up, I think someone is trying to load SRTs for eps 1 to 8. Kisskh has eps 1 to 5 with subs.

Eps 1 to 5 are on Kisskh. Twitter/X user is trying to upload them to Dailymotion once they get more of the proper subs instead of machine translated. I think they have ep 02 up with subs but ep 01 is not yet loaded on dailymotion. The others are loaded but with CN subs LOL https://www.dailymotion.com/video/k6BdHeeOfpG0ZHzWitk

Another group is doing the AI machine translated SRT files while the main person is doing proper subs. They even posted how they are doing the AI machine translation (hints for those that want to do other series on their own) machine subs are not perfect but they look better than Mangotvs LOL

At this time the videos and srt files are separate. They are trying to find a place to load the videos where it won't be striked and taken down. I think the only "safe" place will probably be kiss and dramacool etc TBQH since Justice in the Dark (The Abyss) are still there LOL Also maybe we use a different title for the series LOL

So you have to download the srt files and video files separately. When you watched on your computer/laptop media player, you will have to "turn on subtitles" and it should pop up for you to upload the SRT file into that video to watch.

Google drive where all the SRTs (proper subbed and AI machine) + unsubbed videos

I did notice that they put more makeup on our heroine. Normally her makeup is no makeup makeup but this time you could see the gloss, mascara etc. I wonder if it's a signal like how villains get their dark liner but in this our heroine gets glossy lips etc to symbolize her growth and coming into herself after 15 years of being a single lady LOL

I watch it on Kocowa. I have to give the series streaming ratings LOL

I'm still trying to find it. I found the book on amazon but it's in Chinese.
It's adapted from the novel The Orphans of Red Planet (火星孤儿) by Liu Yang (刘洋) - Technically the title should be Orphans from Mars but with English titles LOL they always change titles to use more words than necessary LOL

He will get around to it one day LOL I don't think the studio/production wants anyone else as the ML but him.
