See this website for a video that translates even the danmaku: “Around 2008, users began uploading a number of videos from the Japanese streaming site Niconico to China’s then fledgling streaming sites, including two videos with the term guichu — or “ghost beast” — in the title. Viewers soon embraced the guichu format’s manic audiovisual mashups, which, if often incoherent, were just as often wildly catchy... the genre gradually split into two subgenres: “human vocaloid” and “audio MAD.” The latter is closer to its Niconico forebears, with creators mostly just adjusting the frequency of human voices to imitate the sound of musical instruments. “Human vocaloid” guichu, on the other hand, leave the voice intact. Then there are practices like “guichu taming,” in which unrelated audiovisual content is mashed together into distinct rhythms, and “guichu theater,” in which clips are rearranged to create a nonsensical story.“ (I reuploaded them for archival: ) Zhao Benshan: “Over the past three years, China’s northeastern [Dongbei] rust belt has seemingly taken over the country’s pop culture scene... Zhao Benshan — who got his start in errenzhuan, a traditional northeastern theatrical form — rose to fame beginning in the early 1990s thanks to a series of Spring Festival Gala sketches about the typical Dongbei farmer. ... Zhao’s comedic style can be best summarized as a combination of razor-sharp wit, overwhelming optimism, and ironic boasting.“ Spring Festival Gala: ’s_Gala “The CCTV New Year’s Gala, also known as the Spring Festival Gala, and commonly abbreviated in Chinese as Chunwan, is a Chinese New Year special produced by China Media Group (CMG). It is broadcast annually on the eve of Chinese New Year on its flagship CCTV-1 and internationally through the China Global Television Network“ ENSA: “The Equestrian National Space Administration (ENSA /ˈænsə/) is a ministry of the Equestrian government responsible for secular exploration, research, and command and control of outer space. Established in 1020 A.L., it has led most Equestrian space projects, including Project A119, Project Sundial, the 1030–1040 Moon landing missions, the Skylab space station, and Project Heliobeam.“ Legends of the Three Kingdoms: “Legends of the Three Kingdoms is a Chinese card game based on the Three Kingdoms period of China and the semi-fictional 14th century novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms (ROTK) by Luo Guanzhong. The rules of the basic LTK are almost identical to the rules of the older Italian card game Bang!. LTK was released by YOKA games (游卡桌游) on January 1, 2008... There are self-created cards by players, but these are mostly unofficial.“ “Tonight is Unforgettable“ 难忘今宵 by 李谷一 is a standard song sang at the end of the Spring Gala. For example, this is the song performed at the Spring Gala of 2020 ---- Reuploaded with permission.
