My Chinese learning journey round up 2025 - www.thecozystudy.com/2025-round-up/ I didn't read as much as I had planned, but I did play a lot of games in Chinese this year!

I put together this presentation from a snippet of the Tailhook translation preview. My translation is by no means perfect or accurate; it's only for reference for those who can not read Chinese. Link to original webnovel: www.gongzicp.com/novel-964558...

Absolutely loving the manhua experience on the Boox Leaf 3C (Chinese version of Boox Go Color 7)

🫣 From the Japanese audio drama of 魔道祖师 😍 #魔道祖师 #mdzs #GrandmasterofDemonicCultivation

I'm 50% of the way through 《柳舟记》 (Are You the One), but I'm confused by a few plot lines due to the lack of backstory. I had expected most of the backstory would have been revealed by now.

Some pretty covers from 晋江文学城 (JJWXC)

Great video on top 5 无限流 (Unlimited Flow) original danmei www.youtube.com/watch?v=3b87...

《督主有病》is such a challenging read. I'll need to go slowly and read 2 chapters a day. I didn't expect so many specific historical terms, uncommon vocabulary and flowery, poetic descriptions.

I've made a Danmei Starterpack! I'm going to try and add more people to it but if you create danmei fan content and want to be added, please reply here! go.bsky.app/FMsyinv #danmei #tgcf #mdzs #svss #耽美 #天官赐福 #魔道祖师 #二哈 #cql

A funny and interesting video on some Taiwanese Mandarin vs Chinese Mandarin from Grace Mandarin and Shoushou Chinese www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gkn...

The language and vocab in 《督主有病》 is so difficult that it takes me almost an hour to read some chapters!

ちび花怜☺️ #TGCF

Tell me your reason(s) for learning Chinese. Here's mine: - To read danmei webnovels - To watch TV shows without English subs Just two main reasons, as simple as that! What's yours? #chinese #learnChinese

The traditional cover art for 《不要物种歧视》 is so beautiful I had to share it! #danmei #danmeisky

Happy Friday everyone! I felt like making a small 🧵 of something that combines 2 things I really enjoy- a list of #cdrama that revolve around... #videogames, this is a rather niche selection, most of these will have het romances, so let's go~

Oooo this looks like it could be a nice slice of life show.

It's been a while since my last blog post! My latest blog post discusses how you can learn Chinese to read danmei webnovels for under $100. www.thecozystudy.com/learn-chines... That's cheaper than the English version TGCF! #danmei #tgcf #天官赐福

Language. Danmei. C-drama

#三嫁咸鱼 Married thrice to salted fish by Bi Ka Bi official AD merch. It’ll be released in the Hangzhou IAGF Convention first.

I'm going to be a little more active here from now on. I'm getting a lot of spam followers and generally a lot of spam on my feed in the other place

It begins #FangsOfFortune

The scenes in #SnowyNightTimelessLove are so beautiful. I can watch them chat and drink wine all day long!

An amazing Chinese animation show!!!! We need more seasons!!

So many pretty covers on 晋江文学成 (JJWXC) these days! It's baiting me to bookmark everything.

If you're not able to afford danmei books then know that "There's something wrong with the Chef" is actually officially free to read in Chinese. Most danmei are less than $5, including TGCF and QJJ! As I always say, learn Mandarin Chinese for danmei! www.thecozystudy.com/the-ultimate...
