Hey guys, it’s been more than a month already since the 2021 Tencent Video bAnimation Conference that took place last August 8 and while I have previously published a list of Chinese anime sequels from Tencent that are scheduled for release this 2021 and 2022, I haven’t truly tackled their new series other than having a short overview about some of them such as SAYE, Lord of the Mysteries, Martial God Asura, Soul Land 2: The Unrivaled Tang Sect, and AWM: Ultimate Sniper to name a few. So, in this post I would like to share all the upcoming new Chinese anime from Tencent in their 2021-2022 lineup, this list is comprised of both original works and adapted works from various novels, manhua, video games, or web novels.

I would like to reiterate that I will only list down here all the new series, therefore, returning sequels will not be included. However, you can check my previous post about it here: All the Tencent’s Chinese Anime Sequels from the 2021-2022 Lineup.
New Chinese Anime From Tencent for their 2021-2022 Lineup
The list will be divided into different sections depending on their genres in Chinese animation, these are the groupings on which Tencent had used on their actual conference. I have made a reference to this list from Troy121, an AniList user that summarized all the shows that were unveiled from the event. Kindly refer to this link for his AniList post: Tencent Animation Conference 2021.

This is a rather vague category but most of the Chinese anime (donghua) that Tencent put in this group are those in-between of xinxia and xuanhuan genres. It has the elements of both xinxia (cultivation) and xuanhuan (western fantasy) narratives that I believed shounen fans of Japanese animation will come to enjoy. These donghua will have interesting development that typically revolves around MC that is nobody and eventually gotten stronger up to the point that they can fight against the gods.

Alright, so these are the new Chinese anime from Tencent that we should watch out for in 2021 and 2022. Some of these series may get some delays and might be release even in 2023 but that’s alright since it will only add to more choices that donghua viewers can have in the future. These are only the upcoming series from Tencent, we haven’t even had the upcoming works from bilibili yet, so it seems 2022 will give us a lot of surprises and will show some more progress in the Chinese animation industry and community.

I be honest looks like a nice line up. And its only Tencent.
i be looking forward to the; legendary mechanic, close combat mage(some humour) and the martial god asura. Also lord of mysteries.
high hopes.
And so forgot to mention. Release that witch. Highly elated on that one.
Hi, thanks for dropping by. Yeah, it seems that Tencent’s really giving a lot of promising titles. I am excited for most of the stories that we set in modern times as well as their upcoming sequels. But among the titles that you had mentioned, Close Combat Mage is definitely one that I will check since I also love The Kings Avatar, Lord of Mysteries seems interesting too. And yes, Release That Witch gives off a lot of Japanese anime vibes but I think China could own this one.
