Zi Chuan

Collection of all 3D Fantasy Donghua (only the first season entry)

Speaks for itself, but it can contain chinese folklore or chinese historical elements, like spirits and dynasties

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.

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 donghua on this list have not been watched by me but are generally well received.

I have generally excluded donghua with low-quality graphics (budget), but I would like to mention that they are by no means bad. 

Check out my other list ([SSS] 2D donghua) for more recommendations. Visit my profile for more.


Highly recommend checking some of these donghuas' novels and dramas.

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 and Dadao Chaotian
