I’ve been trying to find a good Marxist instance, but Lemmygrad and Hexbear are widely hated. Why is that? Are there any good leftist instances?

      That show is obvious to Vietnamese, no doubt.

      For the wider East Asian culture however, there’s Journey to the West. It contains allegory and political commentary on the corruption, decadence, and weakness of the Ming Dynasty. In Journey to the West, both the Taoist Celestial Court and the Buddha side are corrupt in their own ways. These elements have sadly been removed in the 10,000 Chinese cinema remakes. These remakes are profitable, but soulless and forgettable.

        Ah, I haven’t read that one yet, but it’s on my list! I got through Romance of the 3 Kingdoms though, it was really enjoyable.
