It’s interesting how so many of the very few acclaimed Chinese animated shorts are action/martial arts-themed. This one, Xiao Xiao, Kung Fu Cooking Girls, Bat Man of Shanghai…
They don’t feature very much dialogue, either. But I guess that might help in that “transcending language barriers” kind of thing and explain their prominence in the first place.
