superborbThe Mulan short (18 min) from 演员请就位S2 is great! I like that Mulan isn't made up to look pretty, and that the main character she interacts with is another woman. It's not v polished, which almost makes it nicer? There's some potentially triggery stuff about a captive woman and the Ruoran cause is not necessarily treated totally well.
It is, unfortunately, unsubbed, but I think if you read the spoilers below and only watch the fight scenes it would be somewhat enjoyable? YMMV of course.
The spoilery summary is: Mulan, is a high ranking soldier, and some Ruoran attackers have been captured. One is a woman in disguise who is willing to do anything to avoid being killed -- only of course, she's actually an assassin to kill Mulan. A fight scene follows. Mulan then refuses to let her die, bc she likes her (lol); she reminds Mulan of a woman she knows. (The woman is then described, and it is Mulan herself.) Did not like the remaining ending: the assassin has a lover among the captives, he's brought in, she begs him to escape and live a happy life with her, he kills her and attacks Mulan.
