PREMISE

In the year 4386's future China, Cultivation Acacdimies teach students to manifest their chi and wield magic. Student Wang Lin is the reincarnation of an immortal magical god, but Wang Lin hides his ludicrous powers from the rest of the world so that he can live a normal life. Hijinx ensue when tryhard peers, class exams, assassination attempts, and demon invasions force Wang Lin to use his power while maintaining his secret.

LIKED!

+
entertaining ensemble of main characters—I genuinely enjoyed their various absurdities foiling to Wang Lin's straight man antics
+
gorgeous animation, magic VFX, and cool fight scenes
+
pretty OP with catchy music, good BGM, pretty-but-boring lullaby ED

DISLIKED...

–
awkward translated subtitles, sometimes

OTHER THOUGHTS

•
based on a webnovel
•
this show is an ONA—original net animation—meaning it was broadcast online and not via television.
•
19-minute episodes

CLOSING REMARKS

Goofy comedy with excellent animation, an enjoyable future-world/magic academy setting, and an entertaining ensemble of characters.
