Synopsis

A poor and ordinary boy from a village joins a minor sect in Jiang Hu and becomes an Unofficial Disciple by chance. How will Han Li, a commoner by birth, establish a foothold for himself in in his sect? With his mediocre aptitude, he must successfully traverse the treacherous path of cultivation and avoid the notice of those who may do him harm. This is a story of an ordinary mortal who, against all odds, clashes with devilish demons and ancient celestials in order to find his own path towards immortality.

Score: 11/10 — One of the rare gems

Like many of you, I don't have a huge list of anime that I can truly call my favorites. Fanren Xiu Xian Chuan isn’t a “classic” in the traditional sense, but somehow, it managed to become one of those rare 11/10 shows for me.

So, what’s the protagonist like? He’s humble yet brave, calculating but kind, clever but never deceitful. If I had to point out a flaw (as of Season 6), it’s probably that he’s a bit too distant when it comes to romance — especially with the women around him. But honestly, it fits his character and ...

Fanren Xiu Xian Chuan is a standout donghua for fans of strategic. If you like smart, slow-burn cultivation stories with a clever hero, this donghua is worth watching. The start is slow, but it gets much better.

It follows the journey of Han Li, an ordinary mortal who enters the world of cultivation through wit, perseverance, and caution. The donghua has gained attention for its unique protagonist and cultivation realism, but it also has some notable weaknesses.

This donghua is great because it has a smart main character (Han Li) who uses his brain instead of just fighting.
The world feels real and dangerous, where cultivators must ...

I'll be honest: this is my first experience with Chinese 3D animation. I decided at some point in some day of some month of some year to diversify my repertoire and see what people from the country of Winnie the Pooh can create. Especially as I have not had much exposure to Chinese pop culture in my life, at least not to the same extent as Japanese pop culture. Here, of course, we are not counting creations i.e. the poor remake of Mulan from Disney or the concentration camps for Uighurs. So how did Fanren Xiu Xian Chuan fare after that huge number of reviews ...
