#shi mei

At the end of the day, I don’t mind that HYX has made Shi Mei a woman. But I hope they won’t undermine the character because of the change of gender. I want them to preserve the original story. I want them to shock the viewers when it’s time to reveal Shi Mei’s background. I want that agonizing transition from the reserved & kind Shi Mei into the determined & ready to risk it all for the cause Shi Mei. I want to see Shi Mei with all the agency, motivation & resourcefulness. I want the tragic, resentful & full of hatred Shi Mei. I want to see Shi Mei’s final shattering sacrifice. And, I want to see Shi Mei 2.0 earning their redemption. I want HYX to make it so hard for us to either hate or love the character because, yes, Shi Mei hurt & killed people who had nothing to do with the suffering of the Butterfly-Boned Clan but if your people were treated the way that the Butterfly-Boned Clan folks were, would you not be angry? Would you not seek revenge on the society that violated, abused & murdered your people? Would you not give everything to bring them home safely? Honestly, Shi Mei is one of the most well-written, poignant and complex antagonists I have ever read in fictional works and I hope the live adaptation can do Shi Mei justice, regardless of the gender.
