I originally found this donghua to help me while I was learning Chinese but I was pleasantly surprised. It's heavily based on Chinese deities and tales with a modern twist which I found really enjoyable. Episodes are short (around 5 minutes long) so each story is small and refreshing but follows the same overall storyline. The animation style is very cute too. I think donghua gets compared to anime a lot but this show is very different in art style and storyline. Chinese humour also isn't that straight forward and often the English translate struggles to capture the meaning of a joke, someone without knowledge of the history you may struggle to understand some things.

Overall I think this show is really refreshing and would be good to watch if you have some knowledge about the Chinese language or tales. My only downside is that the episodes are too short.
