Sora Amamiya’s Angelic Voice Adorns Heaven Official’s Blessing Donghua ED

Heaven Official’s Blessing, one of the big three BL novels by Mo Xiang Tong Xiu, is finally receiving the attention it deserves. Its donghua was released in the fall of last year and immediately won the hearts of people like me who have a weak spot for yaoi romanticism.

The chemistry between Xie Lian and Hua Cheng was too endearing to take our eyes off of them. Most of us can’t resist the cunning Hua Cheng and his protective instinct towards Xie Lian.

After half a year of the donghua’s release, the series is finally getting a Japanese dub. The donghua will start broadcasting in Japan on Tokyo MX and BS11 from 4th July. 

A brand-new Japanese dubbed trailer is released that previews the new opening theme of the donghua, Jiyu no Kissing, by Sid.

The PV starts by showing Xie Lian’s cheeky third ascension to Heaven. It then introduces Ling Wen, Fu Yao, and Nan Feng. Of course, it also introduces Hua Cheng or San Lang in all of his silver butterfly glory.

It then moves on to tease the first case of missing brides as well as Xie Lian’s past life. Occasionally, San Lang’s affection for him is also shown.

A new key visual commemorating the Japanese dub has also been released! With a pristine look to it, the visual has already won the hearts of many fans.

The surprises don’t end here as Sora Amamiya’s new song, Friizia, will serve as the ending theme of the series. She has commented that she has tried to match the slow and melancholic tempo of ancient Chinese songs. 

Both the opening and ending themes fit in perfectly with the donghua’s Japanese dub.

Main cast members of Heaven Official’s Blessing’s Japanese dub include:

The main story of the donghua will differ between the broadcasted version and the original version. However, the joy of it being broadcasted overpowers the censorship details.

We hope that more surreal works like these come up in the near future. Meanwhile, let’s pray that Heaven Official’s Blessing’s second season is delivered soon!
