In which yet more emo high-schoolers join our intrepid crew and Liu Bei rocks out*

* Well, he plays pop, but "pops out" sounds misleading :)

This is Liu Bei:



For comparison, here is Liu Bei in a proper adaptation (Three Kingdoms 2010):



No, this will never get old.

Which one would you take home tonight?



How I laughed at this. Never thought I'd see this take on the famous scene.



Our heroes, for long plotty reasons, need more people to join their group to break a formation and rescue Liu Bei and Xiao Qiao trapped inside. Enter these two:




Wondercoats, activate!




Invinsible in battle. Defeated by math!






Mirror, mirror on the wall, who's the prettiest of them all? As per lady_wu, btw, in the original, this gentleman is elderly.





I really like the extraverted, funny Xiao Qiao and quiet, calm Diaochan as friends.



Liu Bei realizing how his 'brothers' care for him.




Bwahahahaha. So slashy.



Bromance! Support in times of photogenic angst!





Just as well, as Ma Chao has childhood angst which can only be cured by bromance!






Guan Yu is so tough he plays chess while his arm is being sawed through. Bwahahaha.



Please tell me they named their band "Three Brothers" or similar :P

Oy, more hot 'war lords'. I can't help it but I'm giggling just by looking at the caps.

Nope, the comparisions will never get old.

Math is serious bizniz, even UTW got defeated by multiplication tables recently, LOL!

Wait...searching for you making di di da di da da noises?
For Rlz?

It's like the Power Rangers meets 3 Kingdoms...on LSD.

LOLOL perfect description if I've ever seen one.

This is hilarious! The defeat-by-math scene is so cute!

I'm so happy you're capping this. This is so incredibly amusing and yet I'll never have the courage to go watch it. :P

For comparison, here is Ma Chao in TK 2010. Told you he's supposed to be ancient.



And Huang Zhong's first---yes first---appearance in TK 2010:



I wanted to get a screencap of Guan Yu getting bone surgery while playing chess, but it's quite graphic and I can't find a shot that contains the whole scene anyway. It's awesome that they upgraded it to a *saw* in this show.

Keep the caps coming!

Uh... I mean, Huang Zhong was supposed to be ancient, not Ma Chao. Not sure how the words drifted up from where I intended them to be... >_>

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

No, I got it anyway :)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

OMG ROFL. Is it wrong to find KO's versions hotter? :)

[lady-wu.livejournal.com]

I find the KO versions hotter too!

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Heee. I feel so shallow but...
