Green Snake

 So this chinese animation movie in on Netflix at the moment, and it is part of the "New Gods" series as well, of which I did a review of another film from earlier.



But, it is apparently also the sequel to another, not on our Netflix, movie, White Snake ...
 
Verta and Blaca, respectively the demons Green Snake and White Snake, are suddenly assaulted by the demoncapturing monk Fahai.  He locks Blanca away in a heavenly temple, forcing Verta to go look for her.  She finds herself in Asura city, a sort of place between heaven and hell where human and demon alike try to survive.
 
Banding with Simon and his Raksha followers, she manages to meet with the Fox of the All Goods Market, who tells her and her companions that there is a way out of the twilight.   Together with a mysterious boy that might or might not be her sister reincarnated, or at least connected to her, she assaults fahai for decades as time flows differently and open the Wishing Bridge.
 

 
Eventually she succeeds in overcoming Fahai, and gets back to our current world.  She learns through an exhibit of what happened to Blanka, and that she was with her all along after all...
 
A good, if not excellent, animation movie with a rather special ending for sure, this series is turning out to be good fun to be honest.
 

 
Check it out on Netflix as such, they are worth it, or if you can find them elsewhere as well, let me know!
