[English Subbed] Swordsman Episode 3


This might be the last episode I subbed, just because it's really not what I want to be focusing my time and energy on right now. I don't mind subbing; it's a relatively easy task, not to mention, it helps me brush up on my Chinese. But it is really tedious. If I'm able to find another subber to help out, then I might continue. Like always, you'll know when I post it here. As for the other fan group that is subbing the series, I'm not sure of their name, but you can find them on spcnet. In other 'blog' news, the next chapter to my Bu Bu Jing Xin fanfic will be out by this weekend and the rest of Hua Xu Yin Chapter 1 will soon follow. Be sure to check out Huier's blog for cute, upcoming scenes, as well as translated parts from other novels.

Right now, I'm just watching Swordsman with a sort of detached amusement. I treat it as a fanfic to the original novel, a light, fluffy fun. Not to mention, it is great to read the debates between the Dongfang Bubai camp and Ren Ying Ying camp, since I don't care either way. I might have a post on that later, after the series end, just to see what's the popular opinion is. Nothing much happens in this episode. Linghu Chong sneaks out with his Little Junior and, like the boy he is, ditches her. Dongfang Bubai pretends to be a prostitute, because that's just how she rolls. Little Junior pretends to be Dongfang Bubai, because that's just how she rolls. Pissy people get pissed. Not so apologetic people go apologize. Cranes can now carry people. Bad CGI are seen. Evil plans are made. And, the most important thing to take away from this whole episode, Wallace Huo is pretty.

Video is behind the cut

  1. I really appreciate that you subbed the episode,
    thank you for that,
    but seriously - I don't understand you people saying CGI are bad, when it DOES NOT IN FACT look bad. What exactly go through your minds? WHY is it bad? What makes it good? Can't people at least give some details to it? It's like, EVERYONE just complains about bad CGI it makes them look like people who can't be satisfied with ANYTHING at all.

    1. I thought it's obvious what makes CGI bad. It simply means that it does not look real. That bird did not look like a real bird and neither did Wallace looks right "flying" on it. Good CGI means that you can't tell it's CGI, or at least it shouldn't be that obvious. I don't understand what other explanation is needed. If you think that the CGI is good, then great for you. But that is your opinion and not a fact. You are entitled to your opinion just as others are entitled to theirs and I am to mine. I hope that you will learn a way to express your opinion without putting down others'. It's a great skill to have, and one needed in life.

  2. thank you so much for subbing this series. you gotta be the fastest subber, not to complain the viki team barely got finish with ep 2. well do what you got to do, i do appreciate your effort and time for subbing these past 3 episodes. man i wish i knew chinese, then i would be able to help, but then again im not a computer person lol.

    and the cgi does look like it belongs in the 90 series. but then again most these wuxia series have horrible cgi. imagine if some big hollywood company would to invest in the cgi effects, it'll be awesome. but i think these producers just don't try to invest too much into cgi even though you can do some great cgi with adobe after effect already which is cheap. look at the people on youtube, especially the thousand pound group, they got good choreography and cgi for their naruto vs lee fight scene.

  4. Thank you so much for subbing. I have enjoyed swordmans so much.

    I have followed you from BBJX fanfic to here and have to say that it is because of your translation and writing skill that amused me. How you translate the wuxia and write the bbjx story is amazing. They are so well written and arranged and could be compare to that professional one.


    So glad I found such nice pieces of writing. Keep up the good work. I look forward to your works whether it is BBJX2, Hua Xu Yin or subbing. I wish I could write as good as you. ^^


    Thanks for hard work! I really appreciated them. @^^@

  8. "Dongfang Bubai pretends to be a prostitute, because that's just how she rolls."

    AHAHAHA, this comment made me laugh so much. Because Dongfang Bubai spent so much time and energy trying to become the leader of the Sun Moon Holy Cult, all for the sake of... lounging around and pretending to be a prostitute??? I don't get it. But this whole drama is undeniably good fun.

    Since subbers can never get thanked enough -- thanks for subbing! :)

  10. lol she was playing at being a prostitute to get the lastest plan to kill her, but she did seem to enjoy playing around more than the spying. I agree thus far she or he if you must but it is clear he now pretty much fully a she now, is the most interesting charatcher in the drama. Like most conflicting 'villians' she seems a victim/product of her upbringing and enviroment.
