From talking to people, looking at fandom discourse, and my experience of translating danmei so far, I gathered there's a bit of a translators vs fans situation where translators in general prefer more localisation and fans in general prefer less localisation -

I've been translating My Little Prince for the past few months and it's a really fun experience! My Little Prince starts as a slapstick comedy with two boys constantly at each other's throats, but grows into a sensitive love story not without its poignant and vulnerable moments. (1/2)
Prepare your wallets, and your excitement: it's a brand new pre-order day for Rosmei fans!

I talked about the 冒烟小茶壶奶茶, contemporary to-go teas in China that come with a #tea pet in the shape of a tiny teapot (filled with dry ice so it swirls with smoke). They spread like wildfire across China. Now the Guangzhou teashop that created it, Tingtea, has just opened a branch in the U.S. 1/

Many reasons given, including but not limited to: patriarchy sucks, misogyny sucks, there are two hot men getting it on, women want to see equal partnerships, “non-anxious masculinity – masculinity that doesn’t require women to constantly affirm it", accessing more masculine parts of self, etc, etc.

Started reading Three Hundred Years of Longing 不见上仙三百年, 20 something chapters in and the first character that captured me is Yunhai, the biggest pick-me in the three realms with a spuriously platonic obsession with his shizun. To love selflessly is wanting peace and happiness for your beloved -

an example of the language of class struggle in communist propaganda being used for comedic effect (it's humorous because it's out of place in an ancient setting where people speak classical Chinese, whereas the communist lingo is what every Chinese kid grew up with) #tgcf
