Nirvana in Fire

[superborb]

I binge watched Nirvana in Fire this week, AND I AM OBSESSED.

I'd like to point out that I've never ever watched a whole show from start to finish before -- even Hikago, I watched pretty slowly, randomly watching episodes. In fact, I can't think of any other show that I watched a. in order and b. completely.

Sadly, my Chinese is definitely not up to the task of reading the original novel, and the online translations seem to only be for a few chapters.

The (English) fandom, or at least the AO3/pinboard recced part of fandom, seems quite small. I think I've at least read the first bits of all the 93 fics currently up. I guess most of fandom is generally on tumblr, but scrolling through tumblr makes me confused... Will just have to keep trawling AO3.

Basically: I should never get into a show that has a super tiny fandom because it just leaves me dissatisfied without long epic fics / meta to roll in.

Hahaha, go talk to colorblue and issenllo! They too seem to be longing for meta at least.

I am still in the beginning episodes, due to inability to binge-watch these days, but I will finish soon, I hope!

Hah, I admit that I cheated a little and watched some of the boring scenes at 2x speed. It gets better near the end, IMO!

There are fics at AO3?!

What am I saying, of course there are.

Awesome that you're watching this.

OF COURSE. I think most of the good stuff is like, translations of Chinese fic though? Certainly the purely English stuff seems to be on the short side.
