When I was a kid, all I ever saw were troupes made up entirely of adult Chinese men, usually only two body types (the bigger, muscular hind, and the leaner front). These days it's more varied. Here's a video featuring a multi-racial troupe.

This is a performance at an Aeon mall (they're suburban malls anchored by an Aeon departmental store, usually close to residential areas with an emphasis on convenience and not luxury). Smaller scale, some crowd interaction.

It's lion dance season in Malaysia! Just going to share a couple of videos of "typical" mall performances, and a couple of longer video of competitive lion dancing.

This is a posh-ish mall in the city centre, Suria KLCC. It's not clear from this angle but there's a massive fountain in this park.

I should add that since we've never seen it being driven at night or in non-residential areas, my headcanon is it has those tomyam shop LED lights and a sick sound system that he plays Sandstorm or old rock ballads on. Like this, but kei car version.

Day 2: A character you immediately fell in love with

THIS IS KINDA EMBARRASSING, not because he's a bland blond man, but because I was very much a horse girl at the time and HE HAD A FLYING ROBOT HORSE and I did not know you could love robots so I loved the bland blond man
