天官赐福 [Tiān Guān Cì Fú] #1
天官賜福. 壹
Immer wieder ist Xie Lian als Gott in den Himmel aufgestiegen, immer wieder daraus verbannt worden. Achthundert Jahre sind vergangen, und der einstige Kriegsgott ist erst zum Seuchengott, dann zum Lumpengott degradiert worden – tiefer kann ein Gott nicht mehr sinken. Um sich die acht Millionen achthundertachtzigtausend Karmapunkte zu verdienen, die er seinen Mitgöttern als Entschädigung schuldet, muss sich der einstige Kronprinz und blumenbekränzte Kriegsgott, der inzwischen zum Gespött von Himmel und Erde verkommen ist, erneut in die Gefilde der gewöhnlichen Sterblichen hinabbegeben und den Kampf gegen das Böse aufnehmen. Wer aber ist der geheimnisvolle, ganz in Rot gekleidete Jüngling, der ihn in den Yujun-Bergen aus einer Brautsänfte entführt, ihn mit seinem Schirm behütet und eine magische Schutzbarriere für ihn durchbricht? Adaptiert und gezeichnet von STARember Nach den Romanen von Mo Xiang Tong Xiu Ins Deutsche übersetzt von Marc Hermann

LOVE THIS AND THE ART STYLE OMG😭💞

The art in this is sooo stunning and beautiful

EL ARTEEEE ES ABSOLUTAMENTE PRECIOSO
October 20, 2025
I received an ARC of this book for free from the publisher for promotional purposes.
This was a great start to the series!
Going into this, I knew nothing about the comic or the danmei novel it was based on. I went into it blind.
First off, the art is absolutely stunning! Since I had an ARC, the majority of the book was in black and white. However, there were some pages in the beginning that were in full color. All I can say is: wow! The artwork looked like watercolor paintings and it gave the story an ethereal feel. The style matched the vibe of the story perfectly.
The story was slightly confusing at times. Part of that was due to the fact that the ARC was in black and white which made it hard to see exactly what was going on. Due to the nature of the art style, it needs to be in color to fully enjoy. The story is also a slow burn so not much is revealed (especially in regard to the lead character).
The book also included a cast list and pronunciation guide which I found so helpful.
Overall, I am very intrigued with where this story will go. If you’re looking to read a graphic novel with gorgeous artwork, consider this one!

que fantasía es el trabajo de starember
March 1, 2025
En primer lugar, quiero destacar la gran edición que se ha marcado Planeta con este manhua. Tiene sus defectillos, como todo, pero a mí, me parece muy bien cuidada, en general.
'La bendición del Oficial del Cielo' era una historia que estaba deseando leer ya fuera en formato novela o en manhua, pero finalmente me decanté por el manhua por la simple razón de que vi mucho descontento acerca de la edición de las novelas de la editorial Norma. Como casi siempre, ya me había visto la animación (la primera temporada) antes de pasar al manhua, pero la verdad es que no tiene importancia porque ambos formatos están muy bien, y aunque ya sepa parte de la historia, gracias al manhua puedo ver otro estilo diferente de dibujo, detalles que me perdí en la serie, etc.
Recuerdo que lo que abarca en este primer tomo no me convenció en el anime porque no me acabó de enganchar y estaba bastante perdida con la historia, pero ahora que lo he leído siento que he comprendido mucho mejor ésta y me ha gustado mucho. No le pongo más puntuación porque, en mi opinión, la historia mejora mucho más desde que aparece Hua Cheng y nos empiezan a dar más detalles sobre Xie Lian y él.
Asimismo, el arte del manhua me parece precioso y muy trabajado. Tiene muchísimos detalles y es un arte que me parece muy especial porque se distingue del resto, aunque en mi cabeza creía que el arte sería, de alguna forma, diferente al que me he encontrado (yo me entiendo), pero no me disgusta, al contrario. Y la ilustración de la escena donde está Xie Lian con las mariposas plateadas... simplemente cine, uf. Me encanta como dibuja STARember, es una fantasía.
En definitiva, me ha encantado reencontrarme con esta historia, aunque me cuesta muchísimo diferenciar a los personajes (los que no son los principales) por sus nombres, pero eso es problema mío. Estoy deseando seguir leyendo el resto de tomos.

Breathtakingly beautiful. The art style is out of this world. I'm in love!

La nota es básicamente por el dibujo porque el contenido es decepcionante. No tiene sentido darle 5 estrellas solo porque el dibujo sea bonito.
Si esto lo lee alguien que no sabe nada de las novelas, se va a quedar más perdido que un pulpo en un garaje. Todo es muy superficial, no se profundiza en nada. No creo que puedan entender algunas cosas. Me parece que está bastante desconectado de la novela. Lo veo simplemente como algo para hacer dinero basándose en la fama de las novelas.
En mi opinión, HOB no es una obra "suitable" para ser un manga.
La artista dibuja muy bien, pero ¿es eso suficiente para seguir leyéndome el resto de manhuas? ¿Es esto lo que sienten los lectores de manga cuando ven un anime mal adaptado🤣?

This is my first purchase for physical manhua. I was amazed by the art of starember, really majestic. The story in this book stopped at the end of Ghost Bride arc.
Every adaptation has their own, and i think this manhua skipped some from the novel/donghua. We can't see the young Pei Ming, and Xie Lian ascending was told slightly.
Still this book has its own temptation, i can't stop to turn the pages because THE ARTSTYLE OMG. Hope they announce the 2nd manhua soon.

"Se transformó en una nube de mariposas plateadas y desaparecio"
Que bonito es leer en todas las versiones el manhua de TGCF en español.
La traducción de planeta es buena y aunque si tiene uno que otro error de dedo y confusión con algunos personajes, creo que ha quedado bastante bien.

Ilustraciones sublimes. Digna adaptación de la novela de Mo Xiang Tong Chou. Quedé con ganas de más

El arte es increíble. Una barbaridad. Pero si solo te has leído el manhua, como es mi caso, no te enteras de nada. Ni siquiera de quién es quién.

I think this is now the third format in which I've experienced this story. It follows Xie Lian, once the beloved crown prince of Xianle, now a god who has ascended three times and been banished from the heavenly realm twice.
Xie Lian's third ascension caused some damage that he is being allowed to pay for with whatever merits he earns investigating a case for the Heavenly Emperor. There have been reports of brides being snatched from their wedding processions around Mount Yujun. The culprit is being referred to as the "Ghost Groom." Xie Lian has been tasked with finding and stopping this Ghost Groom.
This volume covers the whole Ghost Groom storyline, up to the revelation about what's under Lang Ying's bandages.
I might get some hate for this, but I personally think that this manhua is the weakest version of this story. Don't get me wrong - the art is gorgeous, lush and painterly, and this lovely print edition does it justice. Unfortunately, the artwork doesn't always communicate what's happening in the story as well as it could. For example, the only reason I was able to decipher the panel in which [redacted] stepped on the skull was because I'm already very familiar with this part of the story.
Also, this adaptation condenses things a lot, to the point that Xie Lian's ability to figure out the identity of the Ghost Groom probably would come across as a huge leap in logic for a newbie to the story.
Which is why I'd really only recommend this to those who are already fans of the original story. Newbies should start with either the original novels or the animated series. For fans, however, it hardly matters that certain parts of the story are bare bones at best or difficult to follow. The artwork is a treat for the eyes, and I'm looking forward to seeing future volumes.
Extras:
A character guide, pronunciation guide, and an explanation of consonants and vowels.

Can we just take a moment to sit in awe of the absolute beauty of this book? The artwork and craftsmanship is masterful. Even if you weren’t reading the story and were only viewing the book without the story, you could easily grasp what is going on. I don’t know if I’ve ever loved every page of a book as much as I do this one.
I have been meaning to get to Heaven Official’s Blessing for quite some time, but for one reason or another, I’ve put it off. I know what it is, of course, and it’s that there has been no audiobook to pair it with. It takes much more time for me to physically read a book (I think I need new glasses, but that isn’t here nor there). I want to read it, maybe, just so I can know what the craze is about.
When Inklore offered to send me a copy of this ahead of release date, I was jumping with joy. Not only do I get to FINALLY know what everyone is raving over, but I get to enjoy it from this incredible deluxe hardcover edition to display with my new editions of the danmei. And they all look so beautiful together! **Photos to come on Instagram**
It makes sense that the setting and characters have an ethereal quality to them, whether it be because of the time period or that they’re literally gods and “Official’s” of the Heavens. (This also helped me to understand the title) And they are all so beautiful. The male characters have an androgynous look that lends to their features that makes it so much more captivating.
I really appreciated the index of pronunciation in the beginning. I spent time sounding out each name, so that even though no one else could hear me saying them in my head, I knew I was giving them the respect they deserve.
Thank you to the publisher and authors for this incredible book.

Thank you Inklore Books and Penguin Random Worlds for providing me an ARC copy!!
This was everything I hoped it would be!! After watching the show, reading the light novels and owning the Manhua, it was SO nice to finally be able to be connect the art with the dialogue. STARember has such a style that really resonates with the heaviness that can occur in TGCF, while also adding comedic relief when needed.
Xie Lian, as always, is everything to me. I love a soft hearted character that keeps their chin up even in the face of adversity and that is my BOY! Of course we only get a mere glimpse of Hua Cheng but I know in the later editions he’s going to take me out in the best way.
This story is literally just a chefs kiss, and all the characters are so distinct and lovely in their own way. I’m looking forward to more of the translation!

Estoy impactada con la calidad del dibujo y los detalles, es hermosísimo!
El Príncipe Xian Le ascendió al Reino Celestial después se varios logros a sus cortos 17 años, luego cayó en desgracia y fue desterrado, nuevamente ascendió y nuevamente cayó. En su tercer intento debe de pasar la prueba de los ocho millones, ochocientos ochenta y ocho mil méritos para poder restaurar su honor.
Ya desde el principio podemos ver la maravilla de dibujo en donde nos presentan la historia, recién comienza por lo que no hay mucha información, pero se ve que Xian Le probablemente sea un imán de problemas, despistado o torpe. Espero que no sufra tanto.
Más que la historia ya que no se sabe mucho, estoy impactada y maravillada con el dibujo y los detalles, hace tiempo que no vea algo tan bonito, espero que se mantenga la calidad en los siguientes volúmenes.

3,5 ⭐️
Con su dibujo tan detallista ensalza la belleza de los personajes, escenarios y ropajes. Todo da la sensación de ser muy delicado. Y esto hace que sea una delicia leerlo, te sumerge por completo.
Sin embargo, me cuesta distinguir a cada personajes, tanto por su aspecto como por su personalidad. Y hay tantos nombres y se para tanto a contarlo como si fuese una leyenda que a veces me he sentido perdido.
Aun así me ha gustado mucho la premisa con fantasmas y dioses. Es posible que le de una segunda oportunidad leyendo el siguiente para ver si mejora al estar más asentado y no tener que explicar tanto al lector.

August 30, 2024I picked this manhua up in a bookstore in China and I immediately got drawn in by the sheer beauty of the cover. The illustrations are breathtaking and the worldbuilding and the first arc are interesting enough. My only issue is that since it's my first time ever interacting with The Heaven's Official Blessing, the worldbuilding itself kinda fell short and left me confused at the beginning (I should mention that I read it in Chinese and terms for specific concepts within the universe are used all the time and impossible to translate and wrap my head around.) Nevertheless, I'll treat this as a sample and I enjoyed this enough to take a look into the original novels and donghua.

December 3, 2025Each page of this book is its own work of art and I'm very happy to collect this version of Heaven Official's Blessing! If you've finished the novels, I highly recommend this comic because the art brings memorable moments of the books to life. The pacing of the comic is very fast to get through the story, and the art is so detailed that only the major scenes can be present, but it's such a treat for the eyes. (This comic should NOT be your first interaction with Heaven Official's Blessing as a whole because you'll be missing a lot of important information provided by the novels.)

No voy a añadir nada más a esta reseña que: ME ENCANTA LA ILUSTRACIÓN, ES SÚPER BONITA.
A parte de que la historia es la que es (ya está mi reseña hecha en la novela), he disfrutado esto de otra manera, lo que lo hace muy especial para mí.
Me encanta poder volver a disfrutar de esta historia de otra forma diferente.

Me habré visto la serie animada unas 5 veces antes de que sacasen los manhua. La historia me encanta, pero el arte... El estilo de dibujo es único, ese efecto que da unos toques de acuarela hacen que me quede mirando la misma página por unos segundos antes de pasar a la siguiente, incluso si ya la he leído hace rato.

Wirklich schöne Ausgabe und die Bilder so schön. Ab und an könnte der Text oder besser die Schriftart augenfreundlicher sein, aber alles in allem liebe ich die Geschichte und eben auch die Comic-Version.
November 7, 2025
bonita ilustración, un poquito perdida en la historia, así que trataré de leerme la novela también, pero de ahí, me ha gustado mucho, muy elegante, me engancho para seguir leyendo y admirando arte indudablemente.

4,5⭐️ obsessed OBSESSED with the art!! I’d say it’s really prioritizing to have read the novel first since the comic cuts a lot of details, I don’t think I would have understood the story if I went into it blindly
December 11, 2025
Listen, I have nothing to say here. I’ve been obsessed with Heaven Official’s Blessing for years now. I’m the one FINALLY being blessed with the print publication of this edition of the story, and I would like to thank whoever and whatever made this finally happen 🙏🏻
The artwork is absolutely stunning, and the story is just as engaging. Can’t wait to keep seeing my beautiful men 💖 Xie Lian and Hua Cheng are life 🧎🏻♀️
