  1. Oh that's right I forgot she had a previous part where she talked. There's a reactor who made a video really tearing a new one on Chaoyue and Wangju and made a lot of reasonable points. It's like 30min though and in Chinese. I won't be able to convey her message as well, plus some of it went over my head, but I'll give it a shot and give a general idea https://www.bilibili.com/video/av24227134?from=search&seid=7094400882557854726 Chaoyue as a representative of the show and the group is embarrassing to China and Chinese women, shows that you only have to be cute and cry and you can become famous and popular. She can't understand those who have gotten hooked to this type of character and aren't supporting the other many many pretty and also hardworking girls. You can like her but not to a point where you're crazily stepping down on others or calling anyone who criticizes her a hater. There's already a mindset that women are weaker, and objectively there are physical differences in strength and such that will affect women not being able to do certain jobs as well. Then this show is even moreso conveying this message and causing women to be looked down upon. For Wangju, having confidence and her attitude is great, but you your talent and skills should be at the forefront. You can't not have any basic skills and abilities and just first learn how to act confident and talk big. She also really ragged on Wangju's comment about her previous looks. Not that she needs to be skinny, but that people should take responsibility of maintaining themselves and being healthy and fit. Even regular citizens, she sees girls at the downstairs gym all the time working out to maintain their bodies. Celebrities should strive to present themselves in their best condition. She criticized Wangju's attitude of not wanting to work towards improving herself. Apparently Wangju fans are the worst as well. Her comment about Chaoyue is a sentiment I share too, although I don't take it to having that degree of impact. For starters, regardless of gender, incompetence is quite possibly my biggest irk. But that storyline of being successful by crying and being regarded as cute, of it being okay you just need to be endearing and adorable and it's okay that you're not talented and can't dance or sing. Her fans are heavily male, and it's a gender dynamic that rubs me the wrong way. Men hating (actually hating, not just neutral) towards Dongyue for being ugly, Sunnee for being too man, Yamy for being too confident/aggressive. And they support the weak one to baby and protect her and don't care that she's incompetent, actually it being a reason they find her endearing. Just my impression from a lot of Chinese sites/forums I've scrolled through and it left a gross feeling in my mouth. If Chaoyue gets ranked #1, you're telling women that talent and ability mean nothing second to a Yang Chaoyue. Women are regarded based on looks and looks alone, no amount of talent can knock down Yang Chaoyue from her rankings. This is why many female fans, many Meiqi fans will be fighting so hard to make sure Meiqi gets #1.
  2. Still works for me, weird. Anyways I rehosted to imgur, should hopefully work now
  3. New uniforms? Spoiler pics from the performances today. It looks like they're wearing it for a full 58 group perf? Also some of these hairstyles..........................Tencent you have so much money, for the love of god hire some better stylists please.
  4. Couple second screencaps seem like Meiqi is not happy during Chaoyue's speech, in video personally didn't think much of it though Speech: Zixuan and Yoojung really are a lot similar, lol. I clearly have a type I fall for.. Funny enough I didn't actually start liking Yoojung until IOI subunit promos. Sejeong was always my pick. Produce 101 and IOI really helped Yoojung boost her confidence and her self love, unfortunately so far Zixuan's experience on P101 China I think has only caused more self doubt. I hope things turn around though. I think what Zixuan lacks is the charisma on stage. She needs a Bang Bang esque performance moment to make it back to top 11. I think part of it is lack of confidence which makes her unable to totally capture audience's attention on stage, part of it also her songs/dances have not allowed for her to show her best. Also I think possibly she's modest to a fault that it has partly blocked her ability to radiate that type of dominating presence on stage. Best dancer on the show and the average viewer wouldn't be able to guess what with the choreo in Sugar and the Seaweed song... I have some hope given that her next song is supposed to be catchy and have a good dance. Insider account described Zixuan as being born for this song. I'm just a little concerned Yibo will take too much spotlight away. As of now I think/hope Meiyun and Zixuan will be the ones rounding out top 11.
  5. Latest update is that they won't have a big part. Some neither dance nor sing, just ...walk around on stage? ("èµ°èµ°ä½") Yitian is one who's just walking around. This idea is sounding dumber and dumber.
  6. I like Qiuzi and have her in my top 11. Really fun personality and she's got skills to back herself up. I'll be upset though if Qiuzi gets one of the final spots over Zixuan.
  7. Hi! My favorite is Li Zixuan, little bean! First started liking her because of the mess with the center position. She got bagged on so much and I thought it was out of line and uncalled for. If you watch her individual cam, she's actually one of, if not the best dancer, but she got screwed over with lighting/makeup. Felt like a lot of people were raging because MeiXuan didn't get the spot. Decision for center position was revealed in a bts clip well after mv came out too, so lots of people were/are left with the impression that it wasn't fair that Zixuan got the spot. From ep 6 interview where she talked about the mv, she didn't feel victimized or that it was unfair or that she was misunderstood, she blamed herself for not representing the show and all the girls well. She cried while explaining that a lot of people think the show is unsophisticated/unclassy, but it's only her that's that way when there's actually so many pretty girls on the show. And as sad of a moment it was, it was also really cute. Following it I started to root for her and pay attention to her more. She's a really great dancer, hard working, modest and low-key. She's silly and a little happy pill in the bts footage, you can tell she has a good personality because she's very well liked among the trainees. Also, her accent is really adorable, and contagious too! So many girls on the show are slowly getting influenced and starting to talk like Zixuan lol. Who's your fave? Tbh I don't think it's an issue with jealousy, at least in this instance. Same girls who aren't a fan of Dongyue are also huge fans of MeiXuan. And for ex there are people like Qiuzi, Yamy, Wangju who do not fit typical beauty standards but have good support. I think in Dongyue's case, many people just aren't into her look and don't find anything stannable about her personality.
  8. The insider account on a Chinese site says that the guests will have a part in the performance. They will be singing except Xuanyi's group, he's only dancing. Same person who gave previous spoilers about ep 7 elims and next performance groupings among other things, so they're reliable.
  9. Yep, was in the preview and cut from the show. Seems lots of people, me included, were interested in seeing the full version. It sounds like they'll be in the performance. At least the way Tao worded it when he explained, he said the guests would help complete the performance together with them. I suppose it could be interpreted to mean they're helping them prepare which still helps in the grand scheme towards completing the performance. Either way, I just dunno how these actors/not well known singers will be able to help in the prep or in the performance aspect. Past SNS posts back to haunt her. She had a post cussing out her neighbor who complained because she was practicing, pic of her flipping the finger, discriminating against Su Bei people (?). Also she gets a lot of hate for her visuals, recent Chanel event airport pics weren't a great look for her. Assuming it's largely men who had the initial hate just based on visuals, but actually I've read/watched several women who also don't look favorably on her because of her visuals. I think she got great exposure at the start with the battle with Yamy, and her part in the first performance continued to bring in votes. She doesn't have stan attractor qualities that make people love her for her personality though and doesn't have a strong individual fanbase. I agree about Fujing. I'm surprised her individual fanbase is so large. Possibly many Xuanyi fans are also giving Fujing some votes? Imo she doesn't particularly stand out in performance, neither does she have strong stan attractor qualities. And I know many people think she's such a visual, but she looks very masculine in not a great way to me? Not trying to be mean, but her official P101 pic always makes me think of Heechul.
  10. Aojuan's Domino being cut is trending #2 in weibo searches. Wangju comeback is #4
  11. Idgi either.. seems like they aren't even that popular (?) so it's not like they'd bring huge amount of new viewers into the show. Plus it will now just detract screen time from the girls. And aren't some of these actors more than singers? What do they plan to do on stage..
  12. Hu Yitian looks so much like a younger Eddie Peng
  13. Seems only 1 person's complaints matter, Tao really got his way with how elimination was done this time around.. Heard good rumors about Yamy/Zixuan's team, so really hoping the next performance will give Zixuan the push she needs. Last couple spots really up in the air. Agree that Meiyun and Renyu are top contenders for the final spots, they have good fandom support. I think last 2 spots will be between the 3 of them. Fujing is on the lower end of top 11 too, but I think she'll be able to maintain a debut position. Yingxi could possibly be a contender as well for final 2 spots. Wangju didn't jump as much as I thought. Possibly the internet flame didn't fully catch on within the voting period and we will see even higher results next time.
  14. I think Meiyun has a decent shot of making it. She seems to have a really solid fanbase, she got voted into a center position out of 6 songs.
  15. The 6 original songs for next performance. Just demos, I believe they've been rearranged, not sure to what degree. https://youtube.com/watch?v=5Q_vvAK8QmI
  16. No thank you to Wangju debuting in the final group. I'm also confused how she became an LGBT icon, but apparently that's a really large part of her support base. She fits solo more instead.
  17. Yamy and Sunnee's company gave me the strongest impressions of company unity. And yeah even Yamy had that moment she didn't pick Chou Chou.Also...the OACA girls :/
  18. Oh. my. god. this preview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pj55vySvywQ Segment for all trainees (and coaches too!) to show a different side of themselves Yamy doing a cute bunny dance (?) Yingxi with a sexy dance Dajuan with a sexy upbeat Jessie J cover Really like this idea, good job Tencent
  19. I see. Personally, I love watching the girls becoming really close friends! I think it's okay as long as there's still a team spirit among the company trainees. There's a new ep 7 preview and it's too funny because Chaoyue is done with Xuanyi LOL. Chaoyue explains they somehow out of the blue formed a family of 3 with Fujing as the dad, Xuanyi the mom, and her the baby. But she said somehow it seems the parents are actually more childish than her. She said she has a headache and would really like to force Xuanyi into the cart. Fujing said don't mind her, I kind of regret marrying her. Also Qiuzi's team decided to give up the mission of decorating their dorm and used their money to eat. And somehow Zixuan ends up in Xuanyi's dorm helping them decorate. Lol Zixuan go work on your own dorm! But hey look it's Xuanyi with her 3 picks to travel with. We are definitely seeing Xuanyi become less and less "official" lol, or maybe the sleep deprivation is finally making her crazy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awT-jnFmd9U So I guess turns out this pic preview is even Zixuan helping their team's decoration lul, that couch in the vid is the same here.
  20. There's some compiled here, https://weibo.com/6445294944/Gj5sACc1m?refer_flag=1001030103_&type=comment#_rnd1527744836250 But they missed some of the replies. If you want to find all of them, you have to dig through the posts here http://s.weibo.com/weibo/%23101%E5%A5%B3%E5%AD%A9%E5%86%B2%E5%95%8A%23 The Banana girls haven't really shown their relationship throughout the show. Like I keep forgetting Fujing and Dongyue and some others are all from the same company. Tencent seems to purposefully mix all the trainees together too for example how they divided the dorms, the seating order during elimination round, etc. By Dongyue reporting to their company officials, you mean she tattled to her company that a trainee is getting too close to Yuehua? Is it not ok to get close to other company trainees?
  21. Daily edition of everyone loves Zixuan ft Xuanyi, Yamy, and Weijin Xuanyi was asked which 3 contestants she'd pick to travel with and she picked Zixuan, Chaoyue, and Fujing Fanvid of people leaving practice and Yamy and Weijin are fighting over Zixuan http://m.v.qq.com/x/bar/post/detail_h5.html?id=11148069694051&scene=fanclub&starid=1661498&ftid=51661498&targetid=&ptag=4_6.1.5.21706_sina Also, Zixuan replied to fan questions on weibo for 30 min as part of an event earlier today. Some trans below, I had to cut some emojis out lol bc of image limit. Only deleted those that were duplicated back to back
  22. Can't find a source that compiles all the pics, but just google image chanel 强东玥 and it'll pull up her individual and the group pics. The most "problematic" pics were from the airport, I don't think the official pics for Chanel were as bad. It was some Chanel event, there are promo pics and vids of them. Pretty sure they weren't named as official spokespeople, so just a one off. They were chosen because they were top 5 of the first elimination ranking. I don't think Dongyue has strong stan attractor qualities. Her qualities are that she's talented, hardworking, and doesn't back down. From what I can tell, she doesn't have as large of a individual fandom presence, so possibly this plus the SNS issue caused Dongyue to lose a spot in enough people's top 11 pick.
  23. Got it, just making sure there wasn't something I was missing. I'm sure those who dislike her are doing their best to blow the issue up as much as possible. Not dissing, but she kinda just has a swollen looking face. Anyways, she didn't fare well next to the other 4.
