Fueling the excitement, Nezha returns for another adventure, driving the thrill with visually stunning combat while supporting Hei. Known for his rebellious, mischievous energy, he injects fiery fight sequences and is a must-see.
Another fan-favorite is back, Wuxian, with heartwarming moments with Hei that bring charm and fun. However, a new conflict arises…will he be able to clear his name?
With the introduction of a new character, Lù Yě, a former apprentice of Wuxian, teams up with Hei to shed light on the mystery behind the attack on the Guild and clear Wuxian’s name after he is framed for the incident.
When Wuxian is placed under house arrest during the investigation, Lù Yě, a reliable and calculated Executor of the Spirit Guild, takes care of Hei and becomes a mentor figure to him. During their mission, it is revealed that she lost her family and became a war orphan, which led her to resent humans. Will she begin to heal from her deep-rooted trauma?
Watch out for these characters and more, as they bring deeper emotional stakes, and the high-octane action that fans have been awaiting. The Legend of Hei II is not just a continuation, but also a journey of getting to know each character better, and gradually loving the world they are trying to build for peace and goodness.
The Legend of Hei II is said to be a healing and heartwarming film with more improved, detailed animation, and indeed a Chinese animation treat in 2026 that is more than just a viewing but an experience, like being part of their world and witnessing their growth.
