While the term "anime" is known to be an animated show produced in Japan, there is a wide range of items it may refer to. Another section it may be referring to is the most definitely overlooked part of animation, donghua, more likely known as Chinese animation.

Since it was produced in China, not Japan, it may have not gained as much attention, while it deserves no less than others. Here are a few you might want to check out!

Note that this list includes the main seasons, not side stories.

These are some of the anime’s I’ve watched that made me feel better when my depression would worsen. Hope you like them! :)

Chinese anime, as the name suggests, refers to animations that have been created in China or are Chinese adaptations of Manhua (Chinese manga), and are often called Donghua.

Donghua is the term used to refer to animation produced in China, encompassing all animated works but specifically referring to Chinese animation. Donghua adapts manhua comics and is often associated with 3D CG animation, although it can also use more standard anime-style animation - IMDb.

All entries are based on popularity, views (audience), rating, quality, and my opinion.

All donghua in this interest stack are considered above-average or top-tier, animation and/or story-wise.

Some 2D donghua here have not been watched by me but are generally well received.

This list is in no particular order.

This list will be continuously updated.


Check out my other list ([SSS] 3D donghua) for more recommendations. Visit my profile for more.

Collection of all 2D Fantasy & Supernatural Donghua (only the first season entry)

Speaks for itself, but it can contain chinese folklore or chinese historical elements, like spirits and dynasties

Great dounghua series you should watch, especially if you like good fantasy mood.

Here I bring you some Chinese and Korean animes recomendations that I consider underrated or that deserve a little more recognition and love, for that way don't be completely forgotten.
