I managed to find it.
I think you guys are overthinking this. For me, it was another lame attempt to be funny and nothing more.
Regarding the below, I can't see what everyone is reacting to? What's the time stamp?

This x2This. I don't understand why anyone would have issue with this scene, it was by far one of the most interesting plot developments/teases (and its implied that she does something similar to Ren later)
I'm fine with it. It made more sense to me than the reveal of Niao Sun did.
Ryo, and the audience, had only really known Shenhua for a week or 2 at this point, so I don't really think that we can determine if something was in character for her or not. We are still developing her character at this point.
Timeline point FTW. Ryo has only known Shenhua for around 2 weeks in game time. The nuance of the her character is not out of the bag. These 'inconsistencies' mentioned are clearly aspects to her character not fully developed when we were learning who she is in the cave with the firewood and the journey to Bailu in S2.
I think it was an opportunity to be playful with her character and they just 'over directed' the scene. Like a meme/anime/abstract bit of fun. Probably just a translation/joke not coming through as it should.
I think she is a lot more interesting because of it. Clearly not someone to be taken lightly and not a shrieking princess. If Ren walks away then clearly she is someone with power and a strong will. Clearly she is discovering how she can use her power.
I thought the scene was justifiably good in the sense we discovered a new angle on her personality however any comedic value was lost on me because it was a little forced. Just needed a little more subtlety and nuance.
'Ding Ding Ding' would've worked beautifully if the thug reacted in a defeatist way and Ryo was confused and more shocked by her response. Also a line or two of justification from the others would've helped if you chose to talk with them afterwards: "When there's a glimmer in her eye. There's no stopping her" "If you push her too far then it's like something or someone possesses her. Always been that way for as long as I can remember" - just something like that...
Scene made sense but needed a more delicate approach to direction....
Huh, yeah that's a good point. Why didn't she use her mind control or whatever is implied when she's been kidnapped?IMO, mind control.
(I don't know why but "dragon" comes to my mind when I 1st saw her in S1...)
She use it with the thug, Chai or Ren.. And others like me :) Maybe on Ryo when he upstets not finding clues..or fighting?
If that's the case, why she didn't use it when she was trapped? Niao sun's negates?
