About
Fabulous Beasts tells the story of China’s ancient divine beasts in modern daily life. They set up stalls, open shops, fall in love, chase stars, and live every day seriously!
"Fabulous Beasts" shares the same world view as other works in the "Non-human" series. The characters are inspired by Pixiu and other Chinese traditional mythical beasts, with modern elements added to make the characters different from other humanoid animation. The cute and lively "beasts" design plus casual comedy let the audience in this high-strung society relax and warm their hearts.
