  • The fact that this single story from a 430-year-old epic contains shape-shifter espionage culminating in a FUCKING KAIJU BATTLE speaks volumes about how much modern literature was influenced by this book.
  • @tahmidfaiz681
    The escalation from “oh no volcano” to “bug espionage” to “the armies of heaven 15 different gods and Monkey fight Bull Godzilla over a big fan” is the best description of this story
  • "The devilishly handsome Bull King" "The devilishly handsome Sun Wukong" I can see how these two were friends.
  • The reason the god can summon ghost soldiers is because he was demoted to be a Tudigong, the local land deity, who not only oversee the local geographical location and it's people, but also acts a minor god of death, having an administrative role over the deaths in that area. Think of it as the manager of a local Walmart calling security.
  • "oh no there's vore in this one" beautiful line, red continues to be a perfect writer
  • @cobalt2672
    Wow, Princess Iron Fan really gets the short straw through this whole thing for not having done anything wrong, but it's nice to see she gets a happy ending!
  • I swear the real proof JTTW is the original Shonen Manga is the fact that the Arcs keep getting longer and longer.
  • @TimeturnerJ
    I genuinely love how angry Wukong gets on Princess Iron Fan's behalf. He's always had very little patience for people's romantic exploits (we stan an aroace King), but cheating is where he really draws the line.
  • @sampdesigns
    Sun screaming "SHES A LOVELY WOMAN" killed me and also "Boy I really don't deserve you, huh?" omg the entire espionage and moment with the ex wife. The Bull King never deserved that lady >:|
  • @pentbot
    I absolutely love the running gag of "someone bursting in on someone drinking tea, and them spitting it out."
  • @namikkou
    Lowkey love the fact Princess Iron Fan turned over a new leaf! She decided "nah this isn't what I want in life" and actually became a better person. Props to her
  • You gotta give Bull Demon King his props, he put up a hell of a fight.
  • @R4yj4ck
    Love how Sun is a generally cool if moderately chaotic guy. Like Princess Iron Fan asks "Hey I know I was antagonizing before, but I'm trying to be better about that. Can I have the fan back? It's actually kind of important to me." and after checking to make sure she's not lying Sun is like "Sure, go for it girl."
  • @flooff1411
    Honestly good for her, finally leaving centuries old toxic relationship to find peace and success, go girl
  • What’s really interesting is that LEGO Monkie Kid handles the Demon Bull King and Princess Iron Fan’s relationship very differently. In the show, the two are actually very devoted to each other, to the point that Demon Bull King will threaten anyone who hurts or threatens his wife. It’s absolutely adorable, and you should all go watch the show because it’s amazing
  • @touchdom
    I love how Sandy, as a water demon, is the only one having a good time when Sun has to swing the fan 49 times
  • Monkey being immediately on PIF’s side in the love triangle is hilarious to me and fully on brand. PIF was able to keep up with monkey’s fighting ability, he 100% thinks they’re friends now
  • “In case of Sun Wukong Break Glass” Bro I love that the entirety of heaven, hell and earth are all just having massive Monkey PTSD and all go full Batman Contingency for the worst case scenario.
  • @voidboi2831
    i love the depiction of princess iron fan as a tired woman with unhealthy coping methods because it's completely accurate to the book but also really funny
