What Are Your Thoughts on Donghua (Chinese Anime)?

I think they're slowly producing works that are on par if not better than some anime. Overall they still don't have the same quality as Anime, but they're good enough to be enjoyable.

What they bring in the scene is the great stories adapted or inspired from the plethora of novels Chinese authors write. Particularly the cultivation stuff.

Some noteworthy Donghua I've liked were Link Click and Daily Life of the Immortal King.

What I don't like about Donghua is they're dubbing. I don't know if it's just the tone of chinese in general, or they don't have good enough voice acting industry yet, but chinese dub irks me in a way that the japanese dub never did. I've put off a lot of Donghua because of the chinese dub, I remember watching Link Click on japanese dub instead.

How was the ending of MWDQ btw? I kinda lost interest around the dwarf fortress rescue bit and stopped reading it.

My Wife is the Demon Queen ending spoilers

Xiang Ye and Isabella got married, and become that sort of diabetes-inducing couple. As they had the first night, as typical for the demons, Xiang Ye got most (not all) of Isabella's powers, becoming the demon king. They fought against the human realm (with the help of a lot of people, incl. Andre), including the regent and the infant. Then they fought against the god race - it didn't create the other races, it was simply leeching off them. The chief of the gods absorb the other gods becoming an ultramenace and tries to hop across dimensions to Earth. An even bigger race, the Ark, intervene, getting rid of the chief god and sending Xiang Ye back to Earth "where he belongs". Andre has no place to go, so he ends working for the Ark, and one of the perks is that he's able to let Xiang Ye and Isabella meet.

This is from the manhua, not the novel. I feel like the ending was a deus ex machina, but it's okay I guess?
