I don’t know why this reimagination of Journey to the West donghua series is so underrated. This is an exciting story that takes place 16 years AFTER the sutra has been successfully collected & presented to the heavenly emperor. In this Westward story Tang San Zang is no weakling monk relying purely on his disciples to protect him. This holy monk is kick-ass. He fights, he punches (HARD!), he is witty, funny, fierce, protective & more. Sun Wu Kong is well Sun Wu Kong need I say more. Some new interesting key characters are introduced in this story which changes the team ... dynamics of the travelling entourage giving it layers & is refreshing to watch. There are 1) multiple exciting & fantastic fight scenes between demons vs gods vs dragons etc. 2) great character progression, 3) well paced storylines, 4) touching moments (between Tang San Zang & his most famous disciple) that made me shed a tear or two, 5) well timed humour, 6) quality of CGI & artstyle is top notch, 7) the designs of every main character is so spot on & I love every one of them, 8) every season has a nice soundtrack, I can carry on indefinitely with all that is so great about this donghua. However I think anime fans please go watch it yourself then you will understand what I mean. Reviewer’s Rating: 9 What did you think of this review?

This story is basically what happened after the journey. It begins in a dragon kingdom where wolf demon (protagonist) who is friends with the Dragon princesses. There is a great war between Gods and dragons over stolen sutra (eternal fire) from Journey to the west. Deep secrets are held by boths gods and dragons. Now our protagonist (wolf demon) is on a journey to bring back the crew from Journey to west ( Tang Sanzang, dragon horse, monkey kin, pig and sand demon) ... so that they all could take back the sutra where it belongs i.e in the west. There biggest hurdle is the gods and demons who oppose them. I really like mythology story. This series did good use of the Chinese mythologies to well around action packed series. Especially they outdid themselves in the last episode was one of my favorite scene and fight of this series. In terms of storyline, it is comparable to that of wu geng ji (one of the good Chinese anime) Art ( 7/10) Good It is CGI, so not for everyone. But still the CGI is almost at the level of Douluo Dalu (one of the best chinese anime). So its good when compared with other chinese series. Artstyle is very good, i like it. Characters (9/10) Great I love the character. They make the series all the more worthy to watch. Character progression for each of our protagonists (dragon horse and Tang Sanzang) are really awesome. I really loved buddha for obvious reasons Enjoyment (9/10) Outstanding I really enjoyed it very much. It is one of my top 10 chinese anime ever. Overall (9/10) Very Good From the concept to the action, everything was really great. The only complaint would be CGI ( but well i am used to it by now), I cant wait to see next season Reviewer’s Rating: 9 What did you think of this review?
