Nobody

Nobody (浪浪山小妖怪, 2025) is a Chinese animated fantasy-adventure you can watch online on iFILM. Directed by Yu Shui, the 118-minute film retells the classic Journey to the West from the bottom of the demon hierarchy: not Wukong, not the monk, but the small pig spirit Yao, who decides to join the pilgrimage because nobody told him he could.

Yao lives on Langlang Mountain among demons who outrank him in every measurable way. He sets out anyway, picking up other minor monsters along the road west — each with their own reasons, none with any obvious qualification for the journey. What the pilgrimage asks of them is harder than fighting and stranger than magic.

The film earns its emotional beats through genuine character work rather than spectacle. For adults who grew up with the source mythology and for younger viewers discovering it, the story lands the same question either way: who gets to decide what you can become. Stream Nobody online on iFILM.
