Return of the Condor Hero: I think they define "cute kid" differently in asia

2/3 through ep 2 of Return of the Condor Hero, and...yeah, [profile] crumpeteerand [personal profile] dangermousieweren't kidding...this is one annoying brat.  Not the worst ever-if I can handle Shippo in Inu Yasha and the Tachikomas in Ghost in the Shell, I can handle anything.  But reall, has anyone noticed that most kids in anime, manga and doramas who are supposed to be cute or endearing or spunky are really just annoying?  I wonder if something always gets lost in translation.

Ah well, according to  [personal profile] dangermousie, he'll be "hunk of hunks" and much less annoying in about an hour.

Oooo...fighting with sleeves...never change wuxia, I beg you.

Ehhh, the brain is going to catch up. Midway through the drama he is even...gasp...snarky. And bitter and awesome.

Oh, why do I need things like sleep and eat when there are dramas?

Did you get to the part where the evil Mochou Li broke into the tomb and they are running away and blood donations of awesomeness occur?

I did indeed. Just finished ep 5. Snarky bitter and awesome are all very, very good.

Though medicine according to dramas is a scary scary thing. I should do a post on it :) Really, dripping blood into someone's mouth? Unless they are a vampire, you are out of luck.
