Okay, the title should be Nezha in one word, but thanks to the recent movie, "Ne Zha" with the space in between has become the word to tickle the algorithm. I rant about this on social media before, but Nezha is a given name and should be written without space, kinda like Zhang Yimou. In the subtitles of this video, if I wrote Nezha, I'm referring to the character, and Ne Zha refers to the 2019 film.

Anyway, this has been a long requested video since Ne Zha 2 first came out. I will probably talk about the film proper in a later video, but for now, this is a video about Nezha, the character, so you can enjoy the films with just enough context, like an average Chinese filmgoer. Hopefully, the video makes you go "Oh, so that's why". I hope you enjoy the Ne Zha series, too!
