The Legend of Princess Chang-Ge OP “Nameless Flower” and opening animation sequence released
The opening theme song for the upcoming Chinese donghua The Legend of Princess Chang-Ge has just been released via Bilibili’s YouTube channel, along with the series’ opening animation sequence.
The very pretty and extremely traditional-sounding OP is called “Nameless Flower“, with its opening animation sequence giving us a hint at how dramatic the animated series’ story will be, and how absolutely spectacular its animation.
The song was previously released in China in 2023, when it appeared the donghua (Chinese anime) would be out long before it is now scheduled to premiere.
“Nameless Flower” is beautifully sung by Wang Chenrui, with lyrics written by Li Shu, and music composed by Shangqi Chaoran and Wu Fan.
The opening theme music is performed by the International Chief Philharmonic Orchestra of Beijing.
The Legend of Princess Chang-Ge premiere details
After a production delay, the long-awaited donghua The Legend of Princess Chang-Ge (aka 长歌行 in Chinese) is now scheduled to premiere on February 23rd, 2025 in China, and on the 24th outside China.
The 3D-animated series is based on an online web manhua (Chinese manga) by author Shada, and tells the story of Princess Li Chang-Ge after her father, the Crown Prince, and brothers are slaughtered by the Emperor of Qin after the Xuanwu Gate Incident, and her mother then commits suicide.
The young princess then sets out on a path of revenge.
The Legend of Princess Chang-Ge donghua is being animated by Big Big Sun, and produced by Bilibili.
For Chinese drama fans, if the story sounds familiar, it is the animated re-telling of the hit Chinese drama The Long Ballad, which came out in 2021 and starred Dilraba Dilmurat, Leo Wu, Liu Yu Ning, Zhao Lu Si and Alan Feng.
Check out the just-released character PVs for Ashina Sun and Princess Chang-Ge herself. Then watch the first episode of The Legend of Princess Chang-Ge when it hits Bilibili next Monday.
Meanwhile, enjoy the incredibly pretty OP and the donghua’s opening animation sequence.
