A Totally Subjective List of Favorite Danmei Novels I Read in 2023

Joyful Reunion :: 相见欢 by 非天夜翔

Governor's Illness :: 督主有病 by 杨溯

The Return of Cambrian Period :: 寒武再临

The Plays of Lips and Teeth :: 唇齿之戏 by 张佩奇

Blazing Armor :: 火焰戎装 by 水千丞

After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine :: 残疾战神嫁我为妾后 by 刘狗花

Wilderness Vegetation :: 荒野植被 by 麦香鸡呢

In Name Only :: 有名 by 木更木更

Placid Chang’an :: 太平长安 by 盐盐 Yany

Eternities Still Unsaid Till You Love Me :: 欲言难止 by 麦香鸡呢

Joyful Reunion :: 相见欢 by 非天夜翔

“相见欢，原本是我们的曲子。” "'Joyful Reunion' originally belonged to my people."

[action, political intrigue, coming of age] -- At its heart, Joyful Reunion is a young man's coming-of-age, as he grows up in a war-torn world and decides on the type of man and leader he wants to become. This novel isn't easy to read with it pacing and length, but its reputation as an iconic historical political danmei is well-deserved. There are no "good people" and "bad people", just humans trying to survive in a harsh world and live their own truths. The main romantic arc is fairly light, while the most controversial (i.e. beloved) "second male lead" in all of danmei is lurking in the background. But I love that Duan Ling finds someone who supports him through his worst days, and they give each other strength and hope to stay true to their best selves.

Governor's Illness :: 督主有病 by 杨溯

“去吧，”沈玦道，“你生，我去找你。你死，我去陪你。” “Go,” Shen Jue says, “If you live, I’ll come find you. If you die, I’ll go with you.”

[wuxia, secrets and conspiracies, revenge plot] -- The powerful Governor of the Eastern Depot has a massive bounty on the head of an infamous assassin. Who knew it's because they are childhood friends who want to find each other? Despite a tiny bit of palace intrigue, this is mostly a wuxia story, focusing on the complicated bonds between masters and disciples, and far too many blood debts and sect secrets. The first part of the novel is brutal. I love plot-heavy stories but I intentionally ignore parts of this one during re-reads because it is just so heartbreaking (unrelated to the romance arc). But Xiahou Lian never stops seeing the best in Shen Jue and Shen Jue never stops wanting the best for Xiahou Lian. And that strong bond gives them -- and readers like me -- some hope and comfort as secrets and enemies from the ghosts of Xiahou Lian's past continue to launch them into one action-packed challenge after another. (My review here)

The Return of Cambrian Period :: 寒武再临 by 水千丞

这就是末世，个人的悲伤在全世界的悲伤面前，渺小无比。 This is the apocalypse, and the grief of an individual is utterly insignificant compared to all the grief in the world right now.

[apocalypse, action/adventure, superpowers/mutations] -- I don't know how to summarize 1.7 million words briefly so here's a much lengthier review. It's an action-adventure with super-powered humans and mutant "monsters of the week". It's a mystery and heroic epic trying to solve and conquer the cause of the apocalypse. It's a social commentary sketching out what humanity keeps and saves and becomes when modern society crumbles. It's a love story -- many love stories, romantic and familial and platonic and more-- that reminds you what gives humans the courage, purpose, and determination to stand up in face of overwhelming adversity is love for and from the people we keep in our hearts.

The Plays of Lips and Teeth :: 唇齿之戏 by 张佩奇

周辰瑜回到舞台中央，说：“这出《乌龙院》，我和贺辰烽常说，不过这还是我头一回演阎惜娇。” 说着，他转过身，对身旁的晏朝说：“人家第一次都给你了，你要对我负责。” 晏朝：“……” Zhou Chenyu returns to the center stage, and says, "I have performed 'Wu Long Yuan' many times with He Chenfeng, but this is my first time playing Yan Xijiao." He turns to Yan Zhao, who is standing beside him, "I'm giving you my first time, you need to take responsibility." Yan Zhao: "..."

[ celebrities, comedy, traditional arts] -- This is a novel for when you want stories about celebrities, with all the fun of "CP fans" and Weibo drama, but also a break from actors and idols. A TV host and a Xiangsheng actor meet in a reality show that teaches them about each other's careers. While they are expected to provide some fan service to boost ratings, they also develop genuine respect and fondness for each other. With a comedian as a main character, this novel kept me laughing with xiangsheng performances and the main couple's funny antics. There is a bit of angst when the main characters struggle with their careers and their relationships with their respective families, but luckily, they find each other and a path forward together.

Blazing Armor :: 火焰戎装 by 水千丞

可那个"孩子"，他又天真又残忍。 But that "child", he is so innocent and cruel.

[mystery/procedural, romance, firefighters] -- A departure from the norm in the 188 Boys Club, this novel is a plot-heavy slow-burn romance, following the work of fire captain Ren Yi and police officer Gong Yingxian. I got really drawn into the "cases" (fires) that Ren Yi deals with, and learned so much about fire trucks, rescue protocols, and fire risks of various materials. Gong Yingxian is a traumatized genius orphan with a large inheritance, weird hobbies, and no social skills. He repeatedly hurts Ren Yi's feelings and betrays his trust, for reasons ranging from uninformed callousness to intentional manipulation, but technically none of that is about their romantic relationship. I don't want to downplay the seriousness of his actions, but there is something precious about the guy who confesses his feelings with the bones of his dead pet lizard, and gets frustrated because Ren Yi can't decipher the romantic symbolism of the lizard's heart-shaped tail bone.

After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine :: 残疾战神嫁我为妾后 by 刘狗花

“瞧好了，他，靖王，我是他的妾，他是我夫君。” "Look carefully! Him, the Prince Jin, I am his secondary concubine, he is my lord husband."

[transmigration, romance, political intrigue] -- History professor Jiang Suizhou fails a student paper for using unofficial records, and ends up transmigrating into the wild events chronicled in the paper. Like any decent protagonist of a transmigration novel, Suizhou saves himself from a gruesome fate, falls in love with the coolest person in their universe, and change the world for the better. Despite the setting, the political plot is kept light and simple. A great treat for when you want sugar-pie feel-good comfort read with a tiny bit of plot.

Wilderness Vegetation :: 荒野植被 by 麦香鸡呢

如果可以，谁不想体体面面的，体面地爱人，体面地被爱。 If given the option, who wouldn't want dignity? To love with dignity, and be loved with dignity.

[scum gong crematorium, reconciliation, mental illness] -- My favorite HE crematorium novel! Xu Yan dumps emotionally abusive boyfriend Shen Zhi whom he has loved and tolerated for years, and starts a new life and career with supportive friends and family. This is finally a sane universe where no one retcons or minimizes or excuses Shen Zhi's actions, even if there were genuine misunderstandings and he genuinely loved Xu Yan. During the crematorium phase, Shen Zhi respects Xu Yan's boundaries and refusals (though he does repeatedly return to ask again). It takes time, but he works hard to grow as a person, to think and behave differently, and eventually lets Xu Yan go out of love and respect. When Xu Yan initiates the reconciliation, it feels like they have a chance this time because they have both changed and grown in meaningful ways.

In Name Only :: 有名 by 木更木更

“当他落在了我这儿，我这儿就是春天。” "When he lands where I am, where I am becomes spring time. "

[actors/celebrities, fake relationship, mature characters] -- Two award-winning actors fake a relationship to quash a scandalous rumor. They gradually get to know the real person behind the other's accomplished career and polished public persona, and fall in love. The tone of the story veers is mostly sweet and funny, with a splash of angst that they conquer with their own strength and each other's support. It's so comforting and relaxing to read about the love story of "mature men" in their early 30s who know how to communicate productively, take care of the people they like, and really accept and empathize with each other's imperfections. (I wrote about the novel here.)

Placid Chang’an :: 太平长安 by 盐盐 Yany

“你既然选择了大理寺，查找真相、还原真相就是你的事，而我身为摄政亲王，稳定朝局，制衡天下是我的事。你做你该做的，剩下的我来处理。” “Since you have chosen to join the Court of Judicial Review, investigating and uncovering the truth is now your duty; I am the Prince Regent, so stabilizing the court and governing the nation is my duty. Do your duty, and I will handle the rest.”

[mystery/procedural, court politics] -- The newest Zhuangyuan Su Cen has a sharp mind and keen eye for solving mysterious. As a high-profile rookie official, he is soon swept into the factional rivalries at court -- and the Prince Regent's bed at night. The plot is mainly driven by a series of cases Su Cen investigates for his work and at the behest of people around him, and many mysteries point back to a few old cold cases and a secret organization. The grand finale feels a bit underwhelming compared to the set up, and the side characters are somewhat flat, but the individual cases and the main couple are engaging. The relationship arc is a sweet but measured exploration into the charms and woes of a relationship with large gaps in power and age (40-ish vs early 20s). They are both capable but not overpowered, leaving the story with believable suspense throughout.

Eternities Still Unsaid Till You Love Me :: 欲言难止 by 麦香鸡呢

其实他知道不应该用‘等’来形容。许则像只风筝，没有人握着线，风筝在高空被吹得飘摇不定，但还是竭尽全力地留在原地，不是等谁来牵那根线，只是希望能再看某个人一眼。 Actually, he knows it shouldn't be called "waiting." Xu Ze is like a kite with no one holding the string. The kite wobbles as it flies high in the sky, but it still tries so hard to stay in place, not waiting for anyone to pick up that string, but just hoping to see that certain someone on more time.

[ABO, Alpha/Alpha, (temporarily) unrequited pining, amnesia] -- Scholarship kid Xu Ze has harbored a secret crush on Golden Boy and fellow Alpha Lu Heyang for years. They eventually begin a secret relationship in high school, but it ends after Lu Heyang gets amnesia, and they don't meet again until years later. The pining in this story is absolutely suffocating. Xu Ze has always prepared for his feelings to remain unrequited, and Lu Heyang is far from forthcoming and reassuring about his own feelings and commitment during their high school relationship. After adult Lu Heyang risks everything to recover his memory of their relationship, it's devastating to see Xu Ze break down in Lu Heyang's arms, finally coming to terms with how desparately he has wanted and waited for this reunion, and finally getting his Lu Heyang back.

STORY TRANSLATION

BEFORE BATTLE (BEGINNER)

STAFF

花嫁役のモデルさんはいられまーーす

And here’s our model to play the bride.

HINA

よ、よろしくお願いいたします

I-I look forward to working with you.

CAMERAMAN

そんなに緊張しなくても大丈夫よ。可愛く撮ってあげるからほら深呼吸して

HINA

スーハ―、スーハ・・・　ちょっと落ち着いてもきたかも

Hh… Hah… Hh… Hah… I think I’ve calmed down a little.

CAMERAMAN

表情もよくなってきたわねタウン誌のちょっとした写真だから気軽に行きましょう

Your expression is getting better, and it’s just a picture for a town magazine, so don’t sweat it.

HINA

はい！

Okay!

STAFF

花婿役のモデルさん入りまーす

Will the model for the groom enter.

TAKEMICHI

よろしくお願いいたします！！！！

Ah. I’m looking forward to working with you!!!

HINA

タケミチ君・・・！すっごい、似合ってる

Takemichi-kun…! Wow, it really suits you.

TAKEMICHI

ヒナも・・・すっげぇ、綺麗だ

Hina as well… Wow. You’re so beautiful.

STAFF

花婿役のモデルさんはいりまーす

Will the model for the groom enter.

TAKEMICHI

え？もう来てますけど・・・

Eh? I’m already here…

KISAKI

よろしくお願いいたします

I look forward to working with you.

MIKEY

なぁ、ネクタイ外しちゃダメ？この衣装窮屈なんだけど

Hey, can I take off the tie? This outfit’s too tight.

TAKEMICHI

え・・・？稀咲にマイキー君？

Eh…? Kisaki and Mikey-kun?

KISAKI

オレは今日頼まれてここに来たんだ・・・なんでテメェらがここに居るんだよ

I was asked to come here today… so why are you here?

MIKEY

なんか、その返歩いてたらモデルやるないかってスカウトされた

I was walking around and I got asked if I wanted to be a model.

TAKEMICHI

オレはヒナに式場のモデルやらないかって誘われたんすけど・・・

Hina had asked me if I wanted to be a model with her for a wedding venue…

HINA

新郎役は決まってないから、彼氏連れてきてもいいよってスタッフさんに言われたので・・・

The staff told me that I could bring my boyfriend since the groom’s role wasn’t decided yet.

CAMERAMAN

困ったな～。花嫁さん1人に花婿3人か

MIKEY

じゃ、オレはいいよ。別に暇だったからついてきただけだし

Well, I don’t mind. I just followed you cause I was free.

KISAKI

・・・オレはわざわざ時間を割いてきたんだ。何もしないで帰るつもりはねぇよ

I took the time to come all the way here. I’m not leaving without getting something out of it.

TAKEMICHI

オレだって！写真とはいえヒナの隣は譲れねぇ！

どっちがヒナの花婿になるか勝負だ稀咲！！

Me too! Even though it’s just a picture, I can’t give up this spot next to Hina!

Let’s see which one of us will be Hina’s groom!

KISAKI

妙な言い回しはやめろ・・・

けど、テメェに負けたと思われるのは気に食わねぇ。相手してやるよ

Don’t put it like that…

But I don’t like the thought of losing to you. I’ll face you.

_ _ _ _ _

POST BATTLE (BEGINNER)

KISAKI

なんだこんな面倒なことになったんだ・・・

花垣武道バカな勝負。乗るんじゃなかった。今からでも辞退するか・・・？

What’s with all this trouble…

This fight with Takemichi Hanagaki is stupid. I shouldn’t have done this. Should I back out now…?

TAKEMICHI

なんだよ、稀咲。諦めたのか？

What’s wrong, Kisaki? You giving up?

KISAKI

チッ・・・

バカを言うな。勝負はこれからだ！

Tch…

Don’t be stupid. The fight’s just begun!

_ _ _ _ _

POST BATTLE (INTERMEDIATE)

HINA

タケミチ君

Takemichi-kun…

MIKEY

心配なの？

You worried?

HINA

私がタケミチ君に声をかかせたいでこんなことになっちゃったから

I wanted Takemichi-kun to speak up, so that’s why we got into this mess.

MIKEY

ヒナちゃんは悪くないんだから気にすんなよ。にしてもタケミっち、真剣だな

本気でヒナちゃんの新郎になりたんだ

It’s not your fault, Hina, so don’t worry about it. But even still, Takemichi is serious.

He really wants to be your groom.

HINA

し、新郎役！ね！

うぅ・・・そんな言われて方すると変に意識しちゃう

T-The role of the groom! Hey!

Uuuu… It’s making me feel all funny when you say it like that.

MIKEY

私のことで争わないでー！って叫んでみる？

“Don’t fight over me~!” Why don't you try screaming that out?

HINA

もう！からかわないでください！

Hey! Don’t make fun of me!

MIKEY

ごめん、ごめん

Haha, sorry, sorry.

_ _ _ _ _

POST BATTLE (ADVANCED)

CAMERAMAN

新郎さん、表情硬いよ！もっと幸せ全開の笑顔ください～

Mr. Groom, your expression’s all stiff! Please smile with more happiness.

HINA

ふふ、幸せ全開の笑顔だってタケミチ君

Haha, he said a smile full of happiness, Takemichi-kun

TAKEMICHI

（そんなこと言ったって緊張して全然笑えねぇ！）

オレ、いつもどうやって笑ってたっけ・・・？

(I’m so nervous I can’t smile at all!)

How did I always smile…?

HINA

幸せなことを思い浮かべるといいよ

Think of something that makes you happy.

TAKEMICHI

幸せなこと？

Something that makes me happy?

HINA

うん。ヒナは・・・本当にタケミチ君と結構出来たらなって考えてらら・・・

・・・幸せな気持ちになるよ！

Yeah. When I think about marrying Takemichi-kun…

…thats what makes me happy!

TAKEMICHI

ヒナ・・・

Hina…

HINA

タケミチ君は？

And what about you, Takemichi-kun?

TAKEMICHI

ヒナとの結婚・・・

（全部が終わって未来に帰ったら・・・）

(Marrying Hina…

…when this is all over and I go back to the future…)

CAMERAMAN

おぉ！！いいね、その笑顔！！その調子よ！！

Yes! That’s it, I like that smile! Keep it up!!

TAKEMICHI

ヒナ

Hina.

HINA

なに？タケミチ君

What is it, Takemichi-kun?

TAKEMICHI

オレ、今すっげぇ幸せだ！！

I’m just really happy right now!

HINA

私も、すごく幸せだよ！

I’m really happy too!

MIKEY

稀咲、負けたからって。そんな不貞腐れんなよ

Kisaki, don’t be unfaithful just because you lost.

KISAKI

ハッ、不貞腐れてる？バカいうなよこんなお遊びの勝負勝ちを譲ってやっただけだ

Hah. Unfaithful? Don’t say such silly things. I just gave up a win cause it’s just a game.

MIKEY

ふーん？はたから見てる分には結構面白かったぜ、花嫁争奪戦

いい勝負してたじゃん

Hm? But it was pretty fun to watch from the sidelines.

It was a good fight.

KISAKI

そりゃどうも

Thanks.

HINA

・・・あの！やっぱり2人も撮影に参加できませんか？

…Um! Can these two participate in the shoot as well?

CAMERAMAN

ん～そうね。じゃ参列者ってことでフラワーシャワーでもしてもらおうかしら

Hm… Alright then. Guess we’ll just have them do the flower shower.

HINA

ありがとうございます・・・！

せっかくだし一緒に撮ってもらおうよ

Thank you so much…!

Since they’re here, let’s have them take a picture with us.

TAKEMICHI

オレは別にヒナとツーショトだけでいいんだけど・・・

I just wanted a shot with Hina…

MIKEY

待ってるだけも暇だったし参加してやるか。ほら、いくぞ稀咲

I’ve been here quite a while, so I’m gonna join in. Here, come on, Kisaki.

KISAKI

はぁ・・・仕方ねぇな

Hah… Guess it can’t be helped
