Default Re: Chinese Fantasy

If you want inspirational viewing, I recommend Rakuten VIKI and DramaFever. Content is primarily Korean, but both sites feature a lot of content from China and elsewhere. Most of the content is contemporary, but fantasy (of various "power levels") is well represented to include film adaptations of modern classics by Jin Yong, Gu Long, and Liang Yusheng and traditional classics from Chinese myth and legend. A word of caution, however: these are not shows about mystic martial arts with melodrama as context, these are shows about melodrama with mystic martial arts as context; it is normal to go several episodes in a row with minimal use of powers. Viewer beware.
