About What's Wrong with My Big Brother

What seems like a simple tale about a wayward elder student turns into a wacky ride through a sect run on mischief and a touch of future tech. Dongfang Xianyun, reborn as the eldest disciple of the Care-free sect, wakes up with a brain not built for quiet conforming. His main obsession is staying out of the protagonist's path and surviving every unpredictable trap and plot twist the series throws at him. He bumbles through lessons, argues with his younger siblings, and treats every routine ritual like a mission to avoid doom. The humor lands through sharp character banter, visual gags, and rapid meta jokes about destiny and power. The action stays fast with quick bursts and visual gags.

Directed by Xin Kuo, this Chinese animated comedy blends science fiction and fantasy in a fast paced style. The voice cast includes Su Shangqing, Ajie, Zhang Yutong, Shuang Zhao and Qiao Shiyu. It nods to anime and wuxia influences playfully.

The series toys with the classic elder apprentice premise by turning the brain misfire into a running gag that fuels both chaos and charm. It fuses rival sect rituals with sci fi flair, leaning on quick wit and messy family dynamics.

As a niche animated show from 2018, it has attracted a small online following, mainly among viewers of Chinese animation. There are no widely cited quotes or landmark scenes, but fans remember its zany premise and brisk pace. Its artistic style blends bright colors with crisp linework for a playful look.
