Hitori No Shita - The Outcast

Zhang Chulan is a typical college kid who thinks life will stay predictable until a strange night changes everything. While wandering through a quiet graveyard near an unfamiliar village, he becomes the target of an attack by the undead. Just as the fear starts to overwhelm him, a mysterious girl arrives, carries a sharp sword, and cuts through the danger to pull him to safety. She vanishes as quickly as she arrived, leaving more questions than answers. From that moment on, Chulan finds himself tangled in a web of odd occurrences, hidden powers, and a world where normal school days collide with supernatural threats. The balance between humor and danger becomes central to his new reality tonight.

Released in 2016, Hitori No Shita - The Outcast is an animated series created by Mi Er. The show features a Chinese voice cast led by Xiao Liansha, Sheng Feng, Yuntu Cao, Shan Xin, and Ajie, with a brisk, expressive animation style.

The tone blends school life with sudden danger and bursts of humor, letting action and character moments sit side by side. The show has a mixed reception, reflected in a 6.9 out of 10 from 49 votes, suggesting audiences are split on its balance of genres and pacing overall too for fans of action comedies.

Among fans the show has carved a niche within the slice of Chinese animated fantasy, but it has not sparked a broad cultural phenomenon. Its visuals mix bold color with brisk pacing, and the blend of everyday life with extraordinary threats feels brisk and energetic.

There are no major awards or nominations listed for this title. While it stands out for mixing genres and a strong voice cast, the show shows up on shelves more as a niche highlight than a trophy contender in its field.
