History isn’t just textbooks and black-and-white photos anymore! To mark the 80th anniversary of victory in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, CGTN is dropping three animated films that bring wartime heroism to life 🎬✨.
In the second episode, ‘Echoes of the Horn’, meet Xiaolong—a teenage symbol of courage during China’s 14-year struggle. Through vibrant animation, viewers time-travel to the 1940s, where young shoulders carried the weight of a nation’s survival 🎖️🌾.
💡 Why it matters: These films blend history with Gen Z-friendly storytelling, honoring sacrifices while making WWII’s lessons relatable. Think ‘Attack on Titan’ meets real-life resilience—no spoilers, but tissues recommended 😢❤️.
🔍 For students and history buffs: The series highlights untold stories of youth who shaped Asia’s fight against fascism. Perfect for classrooms or late-night Wikipedia deep dives 📚🔦.
📲 Binge-watch alert: Catch the first episode, ‘Lost in the Wrong Timeline’, and stay tuned for more! Because remembering the past just got a lot more animated 🚀🇨🇳.
