The Untamed Episode 22 (Full Reaction)

Like I talk with Brian on Patreon, there should be a video game. It was announced back in 2019 after the show's big success and was supposed to be released last year, but we only got a teaser so far, and I have no idea if or when it will actually be released.

Eleanor Mooe

RIGHT?!? Wouldn’t that be fucking AMAZING?!

BL Besties TV

omg untamed open world video game ? sign me up pls!!

Sonja

HAHA YES that’s when my memory doesn’t serve me lmao 😂

BL Besties TV

Yes! The same! There are just a lot less characters, but the ones that are there and that you know from the series are played by the same actors.

Eleanor Mooe

It usually does. When you're not so focused on "daddy", you forget he's not actually anyone's father but brother. 😂

The reason why WWX didn’t use the flute: Philip was half right; he was trying to hide it, but not from LWJ. LWJ already knows what he’s capable of; he saw him using his powers in YiLing's office. JC saw him as well, but didn't think about it long enough to put two and two together. But now? The moment he uses it and everyone sees it, there's no chance JC doesn't realize, and not just him, but everyone.

Eleanor Mooe

two bonus movies?!!! with the same actors/cast?!

BL Besties TV

HEHE what can i say. we have taste with our ships 😂😂 we need more gays in this universe!! also wow i’m happy my memory has been serving me well. it usually doesn’t 💀💀💀

I honestly love that you shipped Lan XiChen with Meng Yao (at the beginning in the Clou Racesses) and now you're shipping him with Nie MingYue, because those are actually the two most popular ships for him. There is even a popular pairing that involves all three of them as a trouple (my personal favorite pairing, great intense enemies to lovers for Meng Yao and Nie Ming Yue 😄). Like you correctly assumed, they aren’t brothers, not blood related; they are just close, and like is typical for most of Asia from what I know, calling someone by a word that can be translated as "brother" is common for showing respect or closeness. Even in a relationship, such as with "Lan Er-gege" (the second older brother Lan), which is how WWX calls LWJ in the novel when he flirts with him and wants him to completely lose control. You remembered it right, Brian, in the novel, the only gay people are WWX and LWJ (and Mo XuanYu, the guy whose body is WWX in the first two episodes), because MXTX thinks more gay people would be unrealistic, but like I said, in the fandom headcanon, Nie MingYue is definitely not straight and usually is with Lan XiChen.

Philip asked what is "Sunshot" (6:01 in your reaction). So, "Sunshot Campaign" is the name of that conflict between the alliance of the "Four Great Clans" (Gusu Lan Clan, LanLing Jin Clan, YunMeng Jiang Clan, and Qinghe Nie Clan) and the "Fifth Great" Quishan Wen Clan.

Eleanor Mooe

Actually, think about it: LWJ doesn't say WWX's name often; I don't think he ever called him "Wei WuXian" even before the library scene. So he never once called him "Wei WuXian" besides that one time.

Eleanor Mooe

Yes, you were. Since that "porn library scene" at Claud Racesses where WWX called him "Lan Zhan" and told him to call him by his birth name too, he actually never calls him "Wei WuXian", except for that one heartbreaking time a couple episodes ago.🥹 At first, WWX called him like that to disrespect him and piss him off, but the fact that LWJ allows it actually does show how close he considers him. 🥹

Eleanor Mooe

So i was right to recognize that it's special that he calls him Wei Ying instead of Wei WuXian because it shows their closeness 🥹🥹🥹

BL Besties TV

Wei Ying is his birth name, just as Lan Zhan. Wei WuXian and Lan WangJi are courtesy names, which are given later in life, and if a person has a courtesy name, it's disrespectful to address them by their given name. It's a privilege, it can be used only by seniors, or by people in intimate relationship. Not even YanLi calls WWX by his birth name; she calls him A-Xian, which is more familiar than his full name but still not as familiar as his birth name. Similarly, Lan XiChen calls his brother as WangJi rather than Lan Zhan, because it's more respectful.

Eleanor Mooe

The Untamed has two bonus movies, and one of them is about the Nie siblings (Nie HuaiSang and Nie MingJue). About their childhood and their siblings' bond (because we never saw much interaction between them), the difference in their personalities. It would be amazing if you react to that as well after finishing the series.

Eleanor Mooe

AAHHA OH YAH I KEEP FORGETTING LOLOLOL

BL Besties TV

Nie MingJue (daddy) isn't WWX's bestie's (Nie HuaiSang's) dad but his older brother. 😂😂😂

Eleanor Mooe

(1:44 in your reaction) Yes, he was drinking when they fought on the roof in the Claud Racesses; your memory is great. Actually, he says it in the next line: "Unfortunately, there isn't any Empiror's Smile right now." Empiror's Smile is supposedly the best wine ever, which WWX adores, and that is only made in Gusu. (I'm telling you this because Empiror's Smile is an iconic drink for the series, novel, and everything, so it deserves to be remembered.)
