we love a self-aware anime / donghua
in this list are some shows that break the fourth wall and reference other anime
(these are only ones that i have watched im sure there are others)

动画 (Dong Hua) or 国漫 (Guo Man; gu-o-mun) refers to anime that is produced in China (correct me if I'm wrong). People often just browse 'TV' section on MAL and sadly miss out on HIDDEN GEMSSSSSSSS, which is frustrating because some of them are really good. This list provides donghua that you should give a chance to try.

You can find donghua in the 'ONA' section

Donghuas that have humor and get chuckles out of me. Not guaranteed they all will be deep. Some are lowbrow.

Sometimes I get in the mood to watch a short or short series, but have found (much to my dismay) that there are so few good ones and so many truly horrifying ones! This is a list of shorts and short series that I've watched and enjoyed and recommend to those that are looking for something like these to watch.

(the shorts are listed first and then the short series)

Some sweet, some silly, some a bit of both. These are perfect for if you just want something that gets the warm fuzzies going, makes you smile, and believe in humanity again.

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.
