Ya She is a beautiful donghua with an interesting theme that excels in storytelling and cultural atmosphere. This anime is ideal for viewers who enjoy thoughtful, historical stories and Chinese mythology. However, it does not seem suitable for those looking for fast-paced action or traditional anime clichés.
One of Ya She’s strengths is its unique narrative concept of using antiques as vessels to tell deeply emotional and historically inspired stories.
The episodic structure allows the series to blend different periods and events of Chinese history and fantasy in an informative and engaging way. The different stories focus more on themes of love, loss, sacrifice, and reincarnation – giving the series a quiet but profound depth. Together, these elements make Ya Sheh a standout for those in…

In the first episode you get a glimpse of the MC's struggle and where the story wants to go to. Afterwards, it get's very episodic - each episode containing a side story without or very little connection to the main objective.
Episodic can be done well or poorly - and for this show it sadly is the latter. When there is only one episode to tell a whole story, there is the danger of rushing things and that's the point where this show slipped up in my opinion.
While the first few stories were intriguing, they soon became boring because every one of them follows the same pattern. Characters are introduced poorly - some just stumble in getting no introduction at all. At this point, as a viewer it's very hard to build up a connection to side characters. At the same time the show tends to jump…

The art-style and animation are spectacular and the plot of each episode very powerful. There is a sense of wisdom and serenity in them that you don't really see in Japanese anime. The language might feel off to some people if they aren't accustomed with Chinese, but the subtle or not emotion in the voice acting is matching the vibe of the anime. Each episode can be a roller coaster. Fun, wholesomeness, horror or action. Name it and you have it. The war fight scenes were also dashing with a powerful feeling and greatly animated.
It is a show full of allegories, that some might not get if they stand in the surface of the facts, but there is beauty in it, and some of the quotes show this culture's wisdom. Each story leaves you with a sense of redemption and their closure is usually very prom…

I do not get why this series reviews are so high, this is horrible! The voice acting is incredibly annoying and cheap. The story is ridiculous, it is trying to be too much at once but failing. For example take the first story, it is so extreme! Then how can you compare a toy with the loss of a living being? Then why are these stories so lame when it comes to being in love? I don't get the characters behaviors. I guess I'm one of the few that have not enjoy it so it might be a me thing. I'm not judging your taste, if you enjoy it, great, but it was not for me.
