Qin's Moon

Qin's Moon (秦时明月), also called The Legend of Qin, is a historical-fiction novel written by Taiwanese author Sayling Wen. It was adapted into its most popular adaption, an animated TV series and movie by Sparkly Key, in 2007, and another live-action TV show was created in 2015. This Wiki focuses on the animated adaption, which has received several special episodes, spin-offs, manhua, and a movie.

Synopsis
Qin's Moon follows through the era of the Qin dynasty when the Emperor of the Qin, Ying Zheng, conquered the other six nations and unified the whole of China, to the rise of the king of Western Chu, Xiang Yu, who captured the capital city, Xianyang. The story circles around a young protagonist, Jing Tianming, who carries the blood of a hero, turning from a weak and ignorant young boy into a great hero who single-handedly changes history.

Nine Songs of the Moving Heavens
A spin-off TV animation titled Nine Songs of the Moving Heavens (天行九歌) started during Season 5's airing. It focuses on the situation several years before the main storyline and before the Qin conquered China, especially in regards to Han Fei and the original members of Quicksand.

Manhua
An official manhua adaption that adapts the TV series can be read on the official site. However, there are some changes from the anime as a result of condensing information.

Notable changes:
 * Adaption of Season 5, episode 1:
 * Li Si's imposter is impaled with an arrow instead of a sword.
 * The Six Sword Slaves do not appear.
 * When Zhang Han notices Dao Zhi and chases after him, Baifeng and Chi Lian come to Dao Zhi's rescue as a result of their newfound alliance.
 * Dao Zhi and Zifang's plan to save Pao Ding is discussed with the entire group, instead of Dao Zhi and Zifang enacting the plan before informing the others. As a result, the strategy is completely different here: instead of getting caught by Zhang Han after spying on the oceanside villa, Dao Zhi is caught while infiltrating the prison.

The Legend of Qin (live-action series)
A live-action series loosely based on Qin's Moon (which itself is loosely based on a novel series) aired between 2015-2016, ending with 54 episodes.

Notable changes:
 * Da Siming is a man, and seems to be romantically interested in Shao Siming.
 * Chi Lian and Xiao'yu (who is Shi Lan in the animation) are the same character; after Baifeng's death, Chi Lian quits the way of the sword and eventually becomes Xiang Shaoyu's concubine.
 * Gao Jianli and Xuenu die in an attempt to rescue Gao Yue and assassinate Zhao Gao, and Fusu is not banished to the north until after he kills the two. (In the animation, while Fusu is still banished to the north for failing to predict an assassination attempt, Gao Jianli and Xuenu are not involved at all and are still very much alive.)
