[digitalagepulao]

i am cooking but there are WAY too many stoves!!!!!!!!

[imbeccablee]

actually I'll say it here too. some of the ways yall talk about wukong killing macaque act as if he just waltzed up to his bestie one day and decided to put his staff through mac's head bc he was in a silly goofy mood or whatever.

[the-monkey-ruler]

Do you know what other Chinese media have the Six-Eared Macaque and the Macaque King as the same being?

I only know that the Lego Monkie Kid has this take like officially. Like it is far more popular to have the Six Ears as Wukong's brother, adopted or sworn, but they are never given the title 'King', and in fact a lot of movie plots are were the Six Ears is mad that he isn't the king and wants to take over wukong's life. The jealous brother trope. Let me make an updated list of Macaque in media that I am aware of!

2030 True and False Monkey King / Dare to Ask the Way: Apprentice Chapter 西游记真假美猴王 - some guy

Evil Self - 10 (Just Wukong but Evil) Evil Clone - 3 (Created by an outside force) Some Guy - 11 (Just villain, no previous connection) Adopted/Twin Brother/Clan Member - 6~8 (Family connection) Sworn Brother - 1~3 (Friends) Macaque King - 1 (Literally says that they are the Macaque King)

I see a lot more fan content per say that has the Six Ears also have the role of the Macaque King so is it more on a low-key scale where you see the theory really being popular. It is a really fun theory and has a lot of people that enjoy it, but narrative-wise it wouldn't fit in a casual Xiyouji tv show/movie without making major changes. Most mainstream or individual projects have it that Wukong is facing his literal brother/family member, or that he is just facing SOME GUY that he has never met before. Or that it is his evil clone or physical embodiment of his violent thoughts which is what a lot of the older movies do since that aligns with the book's symbolism and narrative meaning of the story.

monkietober, day 20: screenshot redraw

First time redrew a screenshot, I think it went pretty well :D 

@aniflowers thank you for making me finally do a screenshot drawing :)

[witteautism]

Six-Eared Macaque is my favorite flavor of guy. Monkey guy. Monkey villain

He wants to be someone else so bad so he can gain Buddhahood, instead of trying to reach it in the same way as the original pilgrims. He wants to take someone else’s life so he can have it easier. He’s the definition of “I don’t want what you have, I want to be YOU.” Line of Brutus (the song)

I am sure he has something with struggling identity… oh his psyche… I want to put him under a microscope.

Hello, thanks to you i was able to see the beginning of the cartoon monkey king from 2009. Will you keep updating the rest of the series or the project was abandoned?

We are trying to keep up the project! Right now we are just looking for more beta readers for the scripts! It's hard to find people willing to read through so many and our current readers are busy with irl moments.

We are still hoping that someone with Mandarin to English understanding will come forward soon! But the project is still ongoing as all the scripts are done!

[quitealotofsodapop]

So now that Netflix!SWK and NewGod!SWK have a MK, does that mean HeroisBorn and Reborn will get one too? Well HeroisBorn does have Liuer so maybe not yet?

It'll be cute if the kid somehow helped him in meeting/winning over HeroisBorn!Mac though. 😅

I just finished watching the film properly, and Wukong/Dasheng in it is so "I didn't plan to be a single father, but I guess this is my life now"-coded. His interactions with Liuer and the baby "Silly Girl" just solidify it.

Jiang Liuer in "Hero is Back" (2015) is actually meant to be that timeline's Tripitaka! The creators of the film stated that Liuer is the 9th Golden Cicada incarnation, and that he pretty much released the Monkey King "early", hence why the seals/measures around the mountain were actively trying to restraint SWK. It's believed that the machinations of Hundun/Chaos in the films is what caused this new timeline to occur.

HeroIsBack!SWK finds his Macaque clutching a strange stone oval that the hunters targeting FFM are very adamant on stealing...

Liuer def would be the little kid that wants their parent to find love and a partner, and now that there's another special mystic monkey in the team with a weird stone baby monkey? Perfect! Parent Trap shenanigans most certainly ensue. Uncle Pigsy is all for it! He can taste the wedding banquet already...

As for Reborn!SWK, his MK has already lived it's first life... and now must be reborn as something new.

Maybe that six-earred monkey demon Wukong keeps seeing in his dreams can help them figure out why a bunch of demons/celestials are so adamant that the two never meet...

The Story Of The Four Monkeys - Part Four

The funny thing about the matter is that this Plight Tree, which the Third Monkey destroyed more than once, is the biological mother of the Three Tushan Sisters (Honghong, Yaya, and Rongrong), which she gave birth to them later. The Three Tushan Sisters were born from the Plight Tree as fox spirits with folded ears, unlike the rest of the fox spirits with regular ears. The first sister, Tushan Honghong, has tremendous physical strength and hands that nullify all magical and extraordinary powers and abilities. The second sister, Tushan Yaya, the nine-tailed sky fox, has the ability of ice that can reach the highest stages of freezing. The third sister, Tushan Rongrong, has the mentality of extraordinary intelligence, wisdom, and strategic planning. She is the master of disguise and deception and the one with the palms of forgetfulness that makes everyone who receives them forget their own memories….

not sure how many Buddhists i have on my follower count, but might as well give it a shot!

i'm working on my Six-Eared Macaque design, and I want him to be a comment of appropriation of aesthetics of Eastern beliefs (Hinduism, Buddhism, Daoism) without due respect or true understanding of said symbols and rituals. think tiktok and instagram yoga, the use of karma and chakras in New Age spiritualism, etc.

one of the ways i wanna show that in his concept is him wearing a necklace or belt of broken off Buddha heads, which is tied to colonialism and orientalism. but i also don't want to be offensive or inappropriate myself for the sake of a character.

reblogs are appreciated for bigger sample size! <3

THESE END CREDIT SCENES!

None of them are in the actual show like WHAT IS BEING SAID?!

This is right when Shihou is leaving the island to go to training, but instead of this scene here it just cuts from night to the next morning that he is in new clothes and already on the raft.

THEY HAD FINAL WORDS!!

AND I JUST-! CAN'T BELIEVE IM NEVER GOING TO KNOW!

Liu'Er actually looks upset to see him go, even going up to him to wave him goodbye like the other. Ans Shihou goes up to him, hand on his shoulder saying something undoubtedly reassuring.

AAAAAAAA WHY WOULD YOU ANIMATE THIS IF YOU ARE JUST GOING TO DEPRIVE ME.
