“American Born Chinese” is now streaming on Disney+, where subscribers currently have access to all eight episodes of the first season.

What is the series about

Based on Gene Luen Yang’s graphic novel of the same name, “American Born Chinese” tells the story of a typical American teenager whose life is turned upside down when he makes friends with the son of a mythical god. As USA Today put it, “the supernatural elements of ‘Chinese’ are brought to life beautifully, playing on aesthetics from Chinese folklore, comics, and animation to create worlds and scenes that pop off the screen.” This is the story of a young man’s struggle to find his own identity, told through family, comedy, and action-packed Kung-Fu.
