Reikenzan and Condor Hero are both Chinese series' that got their start as Wuxia novels, set in a fictional ancient China, that were later adapted by Japanese animation studios. They're available in both Chinese and Japanese dual audio (for the first season of Condor Hero at least), due to it's Chinese story origins and targeted demographics. Both series features a coming of age story about a young boy who strives to learn mystical martial arts from a much older beautiful woman, who teaches the boy(s) superior unconventional techniques, skills, and spiritual awareness, while watching over them as they grow up to be competent men, and growing very close bonds with them. The only problem with Condor Hero is, due to being over a decade old, with each season after the first, it is increasingly difficult to find, both online and in retail, especially season 3 where English subtitles are almost nonexistent.  read more
