Crunchyroll’s New Hit Chinese Anime Is Coming For The Isekai Throne

by

Crunchyroll is the world’s leading streaming platform for anime, consistently delivering popular new series to fans. This year saw hits like Solo Leveling, The Apothecary Diaries, and Gachiakuta, but a new series is gaining attention: a Chinese anime called The Fated Magical Princess: Who Made Me a Princess. This fantasy series is generating a lot of excitement and continues a growing trend of successful Chinese anime, following titles like Lord of the Mysteries and To Be Hero X. We can expect to see even more Chinese anime become popular in the coming years.

The Fated Magical Princess: Who Made Me a Princess Is One Of Crunchyroll’s Biggest New Hits

  • A Korean Manhwa Adapted by a Chinese Studio
  • An Isekai That Stands Out from the Rest

The anime *The Fated Magical Princess: Who Made Me a Princess* is based on the popular Korean web novel *Who Made Me a Princess*. It was already gaining a following in Japan before the anime even came out! In fact, the story, which is presented as a manhwa (Korean comic), was so well-loved that it ranked among the top 10 most requested series for anime adaptation in both 2022 and 2023 – a feat even the popular *Solo Leveling* didn’t achieve at the time. Now, this beloved story has finally been adapted into an anime by Chinese animation studio Colored Pencil Animation. The anime premiered recently, starting on September 28th in China, and fans are already impressed with its quality.

The Fated Magical Princess: Who Made Me a Princess is a popular anime about a noblewoman named Athanasia who is reborn into a new life. Despite being born into a high-ranking family, she must rely on her intelligence to navigate a difficult relationship with her cold father. The show is captivating, leaving viewers eagerly awaiting each new episode. Some fans have noted that the anime doesn’t always follow the original story closely, which is their main criticism.

Chinese Anime Are Taking Over

The Fated Magical Princess: Who Made Me a Princess, Lord of the Mysteries, and To Be Hero X Have All Been Huge

Chinese-made anime is gaining popularity with fans, and in 2025, three series have really broken through. One example is *The Fated Magical Princess: Who Made Me a Princess*, which is off to a promising start, even though the anime adaptation is still new and developing.

Many fans consider Lord of the Mysteries to be the best anime of the year, and its popularity has already led to a second season. Another big hit from China is To Be Hero X, which fans are eagerly anticipating more of in the future. This is just the start, and Chinese anime could become a major competitor in the industry soon.
