If your looking to get into Chinese or Koren stuff here is my list

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.

Includes→
• Original Chinese anime.
• Donghua adaptations of manga, manhwa or manhua.

Oh no, truck-kun did it again! Or maybe you fell down a well or into the toilet?!

None the less, you're up for an epic adventure or love in another world. A second chance at life. Redemption ... or revenge.

This is isekai tales.

Eighteen-hundreds. The century of noblesse oblige and fantastical mysteries taking place in sublime surroundings. A feeling of eerieness in the air might also be present.

I've taken the liberty to include anime with supernatural and mythological themes also. As long as they fit the vibe.

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

Check "Fantasy 2D II (Donghua)" stack for more

All sorts of Chinese animes/3D series that is above overall 8 points, and should watch in my experience. Only the first seasons are included.

I am not a Chinese speaker, so all the series included has more or less decent English subtitles.

Shortcut to "cultivation" series: must watch; Fanren Xiu, Xian Ni

This list is my personal opinion,

I just want to list some shows which show a little more explicit violence, please bear in mind that this list is not supposed to give you (only) pure splatter or even shows where the brutality is the focus. Hope you enjoy!

!Some of the shows may have multiple seasons, so be aware!
