This is from spoiler[Legend of the Condor Hero talking about Yoka and Shoryujo (if I use the names ANN lists, I don't remember those being the names at ALL though!) said to them by I believe more than one person, but I will say his Uncle Kakusei...could have been his Aunt.]
Either way, I watched this anime and then watched all the live action of it so maybe they used different names and that's why I am confused.

I have no idea who any of those people besides spoiler[Shoryujo] is, but I'll take your word for it. Go ahead.

It was a Southeast Asia dub, I believe.

I need to get to watching that show; I grew up watching Chinese dramas (most were adaptions of Louis Cha's novels) so I have a keen interest in the anime. For those who watched the dramas, how different is the anime from it aside from the name changes?

It wasn't that different storyline wise, but the end went farther/ended different in the live action drama than did the anime. There is a second and third part out to this show in live action which I haven't seen...yet. I liked it enough I'd watch it again and check out the sequels at some point.

New Quote!

Character A "This way, we don't have to see each other cry."

Character b "what do you mean "we", I aint."

pretty sure this should be super easy!

From what I can tell thus far, the anime is largely faithful to the novels. Like the dramas, the anime omits much of the inner monologue explanation for how the techniques work and interact, but that might work better than pausing for shounen-esque explanations of how everything works. The exception is at the beginning, where the anime seems to have made some concessions to beginners or the Japanese audience, like having the narrator explain how nei gong works.

Anime: spoiler[Kids on the Slope]
Character A: spoiler[Kaoru]
Character B: spoiler[Sentaro]
Context: spoiler[On the rooftop (I'm assuming) of the hospital, when Sentaro's little sister got hospitalized because of an accident.]

Minigame:


Is he doing what it looks like he's doing? It's for those who have not seen this to wonder and for those of us who have to be disgusted.

Ok, going based on my manga, the series is clearly spoiler[Moyashimon], with the dialogue being something like spoiler[Sawaki: "The bird's insides become really syrupy. You can just pull the fermented bird's tail, and from the bird's anus, you can directly suck the contents of the stomach", followed by the professor commenting on the delicious flavor and offering them some. Not thank you.]

If I'm right, I never have anything ready for this game on the basis that I am terrible at it.

The mini games are first come first serve, regardless of who gets it right.

Correct classicalzawa. I really shouldn't have been eating lunch when I started that show....

True, but it has been informally agreed upon that it is polite to give the correct guesser the opportunity to post something before anyone else. My interpretation of that is to wait ~1 hour and if they haven't posted a minigame then it's up for grabs.
