The main creator of "Langlang Mountain Little Monster" premiered with the protagonist

It is its first animated film work and is based on the same worldview expansion of the first episode "Summer of the Little Monsters." The original short film is set in "Journey to the West", focusing on the "nameless little demon" ignored by the mainstream narrative, and creatively deconstructed the myth from a bottom-level perspective, arousing resonance across the Internet.

"The Little Monster of Langlang Mountain" builds a new plot of "parallel time and space". The piglet demon and the toad spirit were forced to flee because they offended the demon king. In order to live forever, they joined forces with the weasel spirit and the stuttering orangutans to form a "grassroots learning group", pretending to be Tang Priest and apprentice embark on the absurd westward journey. The English title "Nobody" refers directly to the identity of the "nameless little demon", and the theme echoes "Live the way you like, and be nameless has light." The film reconstructs the epic of the Journey to the West with the "Light of the Unknown" and uses absurd fables to illuminate reality. It is not only an innovative experiment in national comic aesthetics, but also provides a spiritual guide for contemporary youth to heal with warm blood.
