    Builds a world without you even realizing it

    Fabulous beasts does an exceptional job at captivating the audience without necessarily leading them to believe this show has more under the surface. It draws the viewer in with adorable characters rendered in a vibrant and pleasing style that feels effortful and unique. This show follows the spirit of the Manhua it's based off of, telling the story of the beloved beasts in a way that doesn't deviate from the source material. It is transformative where it needs to be to fit its medium. The voice acting is top-notch, though many will require subtitles, myself included. The length of the episodes is short, which necessitates watching the "all episode" variants of the show, which stitch the episodes together and omit the intros and outros. Overall, Fabulous Beasts is a whimsical and foreign offering with a lot to like.

    The best 2 hour in mylife

    It honestly baffles me how Fabulous Beasts hasn't gotten the attention it truly deserves. This series is a masterpiece-a perfect mix of fantasy, adventure, and heartfelt moments that can make you laugh out loud one second and tear up the next. The way it weaves Chinese mythology into a modern setting is nothing short of brilliant. Each character feels alive, from the mischievous Pixiu to the other mythical beings with their quirky yet relatable struggles. Watching seasons 1 through 4 was like stepping into a world of magic and healing, and now I'm left craving Season 5! The story feels like it's just getting started, and it would be a tragedy if it ended here. If you're someone who loves unique storytelling, cute artstyle, and characters that stay with you long after the credits roll, give this series a chance.

    Adorable, amazing characters, and mystery

    Thank you China and r/furry_IRL for bringing this to me! I saw a few clips online and had to see the context and just got hooked! Each episode is five minutes in length but they manage to fit a surprising amount of content into each episode. Due to the short episodes, not as much character development happens. I believe this is compensated for by the fact that all the characters are super fun to watch. You would also think that this is a kids show, but there's plenty for adults to enjoy, especially seeing the rabbit's questionable art. I was also pleasantly surprised by the number of queer characters (?) here. I Watched to what I believe is the most recent end of season three. I might watch more if it crosses my mind later but I won't be watching out.

    Absolute Masterpiece

    I've been scrolling ig reels lately, and I saw some clip of this masterpiece, and I thought "why not give it a go?" And I love it after watch 4 season of it

    Need more 48 episodes is not enough blud, I mean I know this animation doesn't get enough attention, but surely, somewhat, someday this will gain it's attention

    From the story it's beautiful the blend of comedy, drama, and some flashbacks, that's make this thing perfect for me, I think that's it idk what to say anymore because I was speechless and you guys should watch this, on YT or on BiliBili that's it I'm done bubuy goodbye y'all see.

    This is now my favorite series!

    Didnt know what i was in for, but after watching, it was one of the most beautiful and funny series ever!

    Loved the characters. The story, the soundtrack. Everything!

    I'm currently reading the manhua as well. Its more detailed in there that didnt make it to the anime, so i recommend looking into that as well :D.

    (manhua is not for kids. It does contain swearing and adult jokes)

    this series is really slept on, and i really hope more people will find it soon. Such a nice series. Perfect for furries as well haha! :D

    you can find the whole thing on youtube (with english subtitles) go and watchhhh LETS GOOOOOOO.
