Shi Yi Chang An: Mingyue Jishi You

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

Collection of all Romance Donghua (only the first season entry)

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.
