The Most Powerful Boy in Chinese Legend 

This story was literally my CHILDHOOD. I remember I was obsessed with two cartoons: the legend of nezha and journey to the west. Like, completely obsessed. It was my LIFE

My boyfriend is Chinese and told me about this story it's quickly become one of my favorite stories of all time. Much love to this legend.

The Dragon King: first a freaking kid wreck up my house and family, and then a freaking monkey stole a pillar plug and causes typhoon and storms across the world.... Will anybody leave me alone.......

Who is here after watching na zha👍

Pretty sure he didn't just stab himself. I think the actual part was he separated his flesh and bones to return to his parents cause he believes the only people he still owe was his parents (flesh to mother, bones to father). This was why he didn't came back alive in his own body (it's was completely destroyed)

I love this legend!! Nezha is probably my favorite figure of Chinese legend, next to Wukong.

I only knew Sun Wukong as a Chinese legend, until the time I was playing Warframe and got interested on using one of their "frames" that has the name "Nezha". I've become addicted playing him, and an idea struck to my mind about doing a research about Nezha as a Chinese legend which brought me here. It's really an amazing history overview about Nezha, but then it was a bit sad when I read more stories about him which shows that he got a bad ending. Here's the thing, the part after Nezha committed suicide. He talked to his mother through dream, the same way Taiyi Zhenren communicated to the latter, and gave her a request to build a temple as his resting place which she did so in secret. The temple had its own perk of curing diseases to the people. I dunno how, but it does some healing stuffs. Then, there's his dad Li Jing, being a hateful scumbag all of a sudden by destroying the temple and that it provoked Nezha to anger and wants him dead as well. As the video said, he got back to life by Taiyi. Offering him his signature weapons, Wind Fire Wheels and Fire-tipped spear (but I wonder if he still has the Cosmic Wheel with him). And now it's Father vs. Son time, baby. But of course, a normal human against a deity. What else to expect, other than the human getting his ass handed over to a deity? Then comes also the beginning of a sad ending: while Li Jing's running away, he encounters his second son Muzha which later on took Nezha's beating. While Li Jing was about to commit suicide, another Chinese god named "Wenshu Guangfa Tianzun" convinced him to stop and...well, Li Jing moved on and contained Nezha?? Damn, Nezha almost had what he wanted. As if this isn't worst enough for Nezha, "Randeng Daoren" forced him to surrender to his dad. It really sucks to hear and learn about his undeserved tragedy and disgrace, IMO. At the end of the day, I hope that this wasn't the end of the Third Lotus Prince, just saying.

I was obsessed with the cartoon and the drama as a kid. I used to pretend I'm Nezha too. Cosplayers start young lol

OMG i remember watching this cartoon as a child, and I've always thought he was a girl!

I HAVE ALWAYS *LOVE* NEZHA. THE CARTOON THEY MADE WAS MY CHILDHOOD. I LOVED IT SO MUCH I WATCHED IT MORE THAN TWICE.

Whoever draws these stories deserves a raise btw. Couldn't do this if my life depended on it

Nezha actually killed himself and separate his flesh, bones and return to his parents. There is a chinese idiom, basically flesh for the mom, bones for the dad.

I love how you guys tells the story and draw it same time. That makes us viewers can see how it is instead of plain oh boring trying to imagine it XD

Those who are rewatching this in 2019 will know that there's a movie coming out at 26th of september

we need an (sort of) Anime which is dealing with Nezha and Sun Wukong beeing rivals and fighting demons and gods

I was not aware that Nezha and Wukong were Chinese legends.. Came here because of the game Warframe lol.

Your animator is very talented! Congrats to the artist! Great job, as always!

Ayeeeee I have this movie on VCR tape but it's the cantonese version. We call him Na Zha though... and in the movie he befriends the kid with 3 eyes and a bird boy. I think the movie is called Gods of Honour... it was a good movie.

Nezha running the Easter Dragon King's fade at the Jade Emperor's palace doors to stop him from snitching had me LOL.

This was interesting! Props to the artist drawing, they did a great job!

I love his story. Didn't he had a red cloth, a spear, and two flame wheels?

really digging these segments. keep them coming!

Wow! The dragon kings palace seems like the always trembling throne of lord Indra the god of rains and monsoon in Hindu mythology. Loved this story.

I remember being so obsessed about Nezha and Journey to the West

Didn't he also have a magical red sash that I am blanking on the name?

Hey, who is making all of these drawings? They're really good, it must take ages!

The legend of nezha cartoon was SOOOOOOOOO lit. I remember watching it and not noticing an earthquake because I was so entranced with this cartoon

I love you guys telling Chinese stories. Please continue!!!

Nezha and the Monkey King have always been my favorite Chinese legends

halfway trough battle,sun wu kong said he hated the east dragon king,and nezha also did, so they became friends.

I watched this on a Vietnamese play called 'ngay xua ngay xua Natra' meaning once upon a time and the story name. The endings were different because I guess because it was a play for children? But both of the stories are really cool. Btw Anyone else watched that version?

OMG this is sooo cooll! In the Indian epic Mahabaratha-Gandhari, the wife of King Dhritarashtra, was pregnant for two years but also gave birth to a lump of flesh instead of a child. In her grief and anger, she was about to throw it, but the sage Vyasa intervened and instructed her to cut the mass into 100 pieces. These pieces were placed in jars of ghee, and over time, they developed into her 100 sons, the Kauravas, including the eldest, Duryodhana who was a crucial character in this epic saga. I love how our cultures have some awesome stories with similar points of birth!

this video brought back soooo many memories

that is funny how i know all these legends from tvb shows when i was young. thanks mom&dad 😊

This legend is echoing to many of the events that happened in the Mahabharata. This is how we realize that we are all connected and our cultures are all connected, but differently interpreted throughout time. I love watching Mike and Dan! Sad that they are not gonna be making videos together anymore.

Watched this again before going in theatre here in Vancouver for Nezha Zhi Mo Tong Jiang Shi

Nezha is one of my favourites. I remember watching the tv drama! it was great

There is nothing wrong to be childish. It keeps us alive.

....HE KILLED AO BING?!

This story and the accompanying cartoon was the very reason I decided to learn Chinese! I fell in love with the colors and mythology as a child and here I am now studying the language (and of course the culture)! :D

Poor dragon emperor of the eastern sea every new born op chinese protagonist has to ruin his day at least once

the animation film of this story was amazing - i saw the BBC version - they had changed some of the music from the original - both versions are great :)

One of my favorite Chinese legend!

Who doesn't like Chinese legends the most incredible legends 😍😍👍🏻👍🏻

I know about Ne zha because of Smite :D

I loved this story and loved the TV show for this when I was a kid.

Who does these digital drawings? They are incredible!

Man I remember this shit from when I was little, watching those old Hong Kong movies, what memories. Nezha was basically Astro-Boy of old.

I am an American and I’m very interested in learning this stuff so thanks!

I remember watching chinese movies bout gods and they're always so interesting and good xD Nehza hair buns doe...ON FLEEK

Thanks! More! Great stuff!

Had a dream where I was in an alternate universe, everything is the same except Nezha and Wukong are in Marvel movies.

i love these legends and how you tell them. Of course you only say a little.

The drawing is so good!

Imagine a world with all of the pantheons of every country is in one universe and they fight each other each pantheon is like a faction it includes OP gods including Buddha Brahma Uranus etc...

My favourite Chinese story is Nezha

I LOVE THIS STORY

God he looks so cute on those drawings, who makes them? ^^

I was referring to a warframe video but I saw this and I was like why not

I was also shocked to see xun wu kong with Nezha bc I loved both (TV shows?)

Title exists. Sun WuKong laughing non-stop.

I've got to say I enjoy this content a lot.

The drawings are amazing!

Warrior's Orochi and Seven Knights brought me here lol

in vietnamese, the boy is called na cha (or na tra... i forgot lol sorry~)

My little child brain had no idea it was actually this big

Aww, this brings back so much childhood memories! I used to watch this cartoon on TV everyday when I was little, but I thought he was a “she” ;-;

Very cool, thanks!

I thought you would tell the story of Nezha in regard of the fall of Shang dynasty history.

in the version i grew up to, nezha also had a red ribbon thing as weapon along with the woop (too lazy to check the name XD).

Why is this in the invincible playlist?

Off the Great Wall has beautiful drawings

I remember this in Shen Yun! :D

He’s like hi dad

I know this story. I watch it cartoon and movies about it. I love it because I grew up with this story

Hey, can you guys also put links in the description for people on mobile devices? I always see these references to other videos, but I can't ever click them because I'm always watching on my phone.

I like it when they tell legendary tales. interesting.

woah such an amazing legend ! :D

At first I was like "Oh they are going to talk about Momotauro the baby that came from a peach" that I was like wait that's Japanese oops lol

3 heads, 6 arms, and magic weapons... Has Nezha ever been referred to as Nata in English translations?

I love the drawnings

Wukong can defeat Neza blindfold and with 1 arm tied to his back

I still watch the cartoon... Im 15
