Hitori no Shita: The Outcast is one of the most popular Chinese martial arts anime and was based on a webcomic titled Yi Ren Zhi Xia, which literally means Under One Person and subbed as The Outcast. The webcomic is written by Dong Man Tang and illustrated by Mi Er and had been published by Tencent.
The webcomic was first adapted into an anime in a collaboration project by Chinese and Japanese studios in 2016 and followed by its second season in 2018. In 2020, Hitori no Shita Season 3 is produced by a full-Chinese team and Big Firebird Cultural Media took over the animation job from Haoliners Animation League.
To have a better glimpse at its story, here’s the synopsis of Hitori no Shita: The Outcast as follows:
One day, on his way to visit his grandfather’s grave, Zhang Chulan is attacked by zombies in a graveyard. In the midst of that situation, he is saved by a mysterious girl, who wields kitchen knives to kill the enemies. The girl tells Chulan, who is relieved, to face his hardships head on and leaves. However, Chulan later sees that girl again at his university. From that moment, Zhang Chulan’s destiny begins to move. There will be strangers with special powers appearing one by one, with battles involving those abilities. Each episode will bring a new mystery to light.
And that’s it, it seems that we will be facing another mystery in the upcoming Hitori no Shita Season 4 and there’s no doubt that fans will be excited to see as aside from Feng Baobao’s search for the escaped irregular employee of the Company. Zhang Chulan, along with the friends and rivals Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing, and possibly Zhang Lingyu. They had been invited by an unknown Outcast and it seems there’s more hidden behind in their connection than what we can surmise on the surface.
