[@yinanunnaki]

For those who don't know what the animation is about, this is a flashback recap of Journey to the West in reverse. [Chapter 100]: After bringing the sutra back to the Land of the East (China), Sun Wukong, Sanzang, and the others pilgrims completed the Journey to the West and thus were granted Buddhahood by Tathagata Buddha. Wukong became the Victorious Fighting Buddha. [Chapter 99]: The pilgrims successfully received all the sutras from Tathagata Buddha from the Spirit Mountain (India) and brought them back to The Land of the East. However, during the trip, they were thrown off in the middle of the Heaven-Crossing River as their final trial, since they failed to make the promise with the Great White Turtle (back then in chapter 49) to ask the Buddha about his cultivations and future. When the pilgrims fell into the river, all the sutras were wet and some were torn, thus making them imperfect (as natural as heaven and earth). [Chapter 87]: The pilgrims saved the Phoenix-Immortal District from a heavy drought by completing 3 trials created by the Jade Emperor of the Celestial Heaven. [Chapter 78-79]: The pilgrims crossed the Kingdom of Bhiksu, where children were captured to create an elixir for a sickened king, as advised by the White Deer Spirit who disguised as an elderly Taoist as well as the king’s father-in-law. [Chapter 74-77]: The pilgrims passed Lion-Camel Ridge, where they encountered 3 Yaoguai kings, the White Elephant King, the Azure Lion King, and the Golden-winged Great Roc King. This was probably one of the hardest trials that Sun Wukong has ever faced, and the Tathagata Buddha had to directly help him. [Chapter 67]: The pilgrims crossed Tuolue Village and saved them from a giant Python Demon. [Chapter 62-63]: The pilgrims crossed The Sacrifice Kingdom, where the Nine-Headed Beast had stolen a Buddhist Sarira. Wukong, and Bajie had to fight the beast, and they even invited Erlang to support them in killing it. [Chapter 56-58]: Wukong confronted the Six-Eared Macaque, who disguised himself as the fake Wukong to steal his identity. Even all the celestial gods and Buddhas across three realms were unable to identify which one was the true Wukong, except the Tathagata Buddha. [Chapter 50-52]: Wukong and the pilgrims faced the Single-Horned Rhinoceros King, who was able to use a magical diamond armlet to steal all the weapons that Wukong, Bajie, Neiza, and the Celestial army had brought to fight him, even the very abstracted weapons like fire or water. Only the Supreme Exalted Laozi was able to subdue the Rhinoceros King, his personal riding green bull. It turned out the diamond armlet had been used to subdue Wukong when he fought with Erlang in chapter 6 (during the Havoc on Heaven). [Chapter 44-46]: The pilgrims crossed the Cart-Slow Kingdom, where they encountered three Taoist magicans, Tiger Power Great Immortal, Elk Power Great Immortal, and Antelope Power Great Immortal, who were also the royal advisors. These Taoist magicians challenged the pilgrims into a contest of summoning rains, chopping heads, cutting open abdomens, or even bathing in boiling oil. [Chapter 40-42]: The pilgrims approached Mount Roaring, where they encountered Crimson Boy, the son of Bull Demon King. Facing the Fire of Samadhi, Wukong almost died from all the smoke, wind, and flames (mainly smoke; the probably only weakness Wukong ever had) if Bajie hadn't saved him with his Heavenly spell of healing. [Chapter 27-33]: The pilgrims faced White Bone Ghost-lady, who transformed into a young village girl, an old woman, and an elderly man to trick the pilgrims. Wukong successfully killed her after the third time, but Sanzang was tricked into believing that Wuking had murdered innocent people and thus banished him away. Later on, Sanzang was captured by Yellow-Robed Yaoguai in the Precious-Image Kingdom, and Bajie had to invite Wukong back to save him again. [Chapter 24-26] The pilgrims arrived at Five Village Abbey, Long Life Mountain, where The Great Immortal Zhenyuan (who is the patriarch of all Earth's Immortals in Taoist) presented Sanzang with some Ginseng Fruits, a baby-shaped fruit that granted immortality when consumed, far more precious than the Immortal Peach. Wukong stole some fruits for himself and other pilgrims, and later, he uprooted the Ginseng Fruit Tree when his crime had been discovered. He had to invite Guanyin Bodhisattva to revive the tree. [Chapter 22] Sanzang, Wukong, and Bajie reached the Flowing-Sand River, where they fought a sand demon, who turned out to be the final disciple, Sha Monk (officially Sha Awakening of Pureness). [Chapter 14] Sanzang had just begun his Journey to the West and arrived at Five Element Mountain, where he freed Wukong by lifting Tathagata Buddha's seal and recruited him as his first disciple. Later on, they subdued Zhu Bajie (officially Zhu Awakening of Ability or Zhu Eight Rules) in Chapter 19 as the second disciple. [Chapter 7] Tathagata Buddha challenged Wukong to escape his palm, but Wukong failed. He was then imprisoned and sealed by the Buddha's palm (as the Five Element Mountain) for his crime against heaven for 500 years. [Chapter 4 - 7] Sun Wukong the Great Sage challenged the Celestial Heaven and battled with Erlang, Neiza, the Four Heavenly Kings, and an army of 100.000 Celestial Soldiers in his second havoc toward the Heaven. He turned himself into a three-head, six-arm body to fight all the celestial generals at once. Notably, Wukong fought with Erlang for days, both in combat and magic. Both are equal, while Erlang proved himself to have the upper hand slightly. Erlang only subdued Wukong with the support of the Supreme Exalted Laozi and his magical diamond circle. [Chapter 3] Sun Wukong got drunk and havoced the Underworld, where he crossed his name and every monkey's name out of the Book of Living and Death, thus making his soul not be managed by anyone. [Chapter 3] After receiving the golden armor and the Jingu Bang, Sun Wukong (literally translated as Awakening of Emptiness) gathered other Yaoguai, including the Bull Demon King, to drink together and become the swon brothers. But the scene is actually in chapter 5, where Wukong proclaimed himself as the Great Sage who Equal to the Heaven and started his first havoc toward the Heaven.

I must admit, I only know the story of Journey to the West, and even then, I don’t know EVERY detail. However, having watched this entire game, man… this scene, the music, it gave me massive goosebumps. I can only imagine what you all must feel growing up with Sun Wukong and then experiencing this.

[@damiester1]

Don't mind the slight gatekeeping around here. They're just really emotional because the animation is really well designed. It's perfect narrative-wise and actually succinctly gave us a summary of the entire Journey to the West while also reminding us that the Destined One has inherited Wukong's spirit.

[@brandenmarcum430]

@@damiester1 Reincarnation has always stumped me. It seems to me that the Destined One didn’t just “inherit” Wukong’s spirit and mind, he IS Wukong, he just needed to remember. The only difference between him and the first Wukong is different bodies, but the body doesn’t make the person, the mind does, and the Destined One is the 6th relic, the mind. For all intents and purposes, whether he remembered or not, he IS Wukong. I mean the whole point of the scene of the game is so that Wukong would lose his current body(and therefore the crown that limited his power), and gain a new one. And yet… throughout the game, even after they learn he’s the mind of Wukong, they still treat him as someone else instead of Wukong himself. I can understand that before the Destined One gained the memories of Wukong, he basically was a different person. You can argue that memories and experience define who we are, but the very concept of a higher consciousness would disprove that. My point is, if the Destined One is the mind, then that means he is the higher consciousness of Wukong, meaning he IS Wukong. It confuses me that they still treat him as a different person though.

@thanghoangsong6138 Well, he can use that quote since he is the Victorious Fighting Buddha at the end of the journey I did read the novel, actually, but that does not discredit his power and feats. There are a few reasons why he is so weak in the journey: 1. He was sealed for 500 years in the mountain, and during that time, he couldn't train and do anything, and the Demons over time get stronger than in his times 2. He isn't allowed to kill, so that restricted him greatly, and some demons are part of the Celestial Court 3. Some demons actually have power that is greater than his (exp chapter 25) 4. His weapon was crafted by Tai Shang Lao Jun and the dude magical artifacts showing up everywhere in the novel, so it's no surprised he has to face some challenges 5. And despite everything, Wukong was only 500 something years old, and it's extremely young for an immortal. Bro hasn't reached his peak yet. (Exp: the Immortal Peaches actually reduced the thoundsand years of time to become Immortal so at minimum without any cheat, a demon need to train at least for a thoundsand year to become Immortal )

[@devilzen]

The animation is in reverse order of events and I will explain it in terms of my knowledge from the 80s tv show. 0:04 Start of the game Black Myth 0:24 Tangshanzhang(唐山藏), Sun Wukong(孙悟空), Zhu Bajie(猪八戒) and Sha Wujing(沙悟净) reached India(West) for the scriptures. Buddha(如来佛祖) granted Wukong the title of 斗战胜佛 (Victorious fighting Buddha). 0:47 The last tribulation the group encountered(total of 81, 九九八十一难). This is not the same turtle in the game, this one is called laoyan(老鼋), it was saved by the group from a demon and Tangshanzhang promised to help it ask the Buddha for a favor but Tangshanzhang forgot so it threw the group into the water 1:06 Reference to the time when the group encounters the people of Phoenix-Immortal, their king(凤仙郡王) offended the Jade Emperor(玉帝) and their nation is cursed with 3 years of drought and Wukong has to help them as one of the 81 tribulation (also the hardest one to overcome imo) 1:14 They have to help a nation against its mad king who was manipulated by a deer guai(白鹿) 1:20 The iconic "duu duu duu, duu duu duu" of the OG 80s tv show. 1:22 Another tribulation, Wukong has to fight against Golden-Winged Great Peng(金翅大鵬) and is considered one of the strongest yaoguai Wukong fought, this yaoguai had the help of another two strong yaoguai so Buddha himself appeared to help Wukong. 1:30 Wukong vs Python guai(蟒蛇精) 1:37 Wukong vs Nine-headed bird(九头虫). Another incredibly strong enemy, and Wukong had to team up with Erlangshen(二郎神) 1:44 Wukong fought against one of his monkey kind, Six-eared Macaque(六耳猕猴) who looks exactly like him and has the same abilities but Wukong killed him and has great regrets. 1:51 Wukong, Bajie, Wujing + Nezha(哪吒) vs Green bull guai(青牛精), this enemy stole magical equipment from a deity and used it to suck everything in. 1:56 The group met 3 yaoguai and they challenged Wukong. The tiger(虎力大仙), not the same one in the game, challenged Wukong to a "head chopping challenge" but Wukong transformed into a dog and took the head away so the tiger cant reattach and died lmao 2:00 Zhu Bajie saved Wukong's life after a huge battle with Red child(红孩儿). This is the only time Bajie save Wukong. 2:05 Tangsanzhang's chanting to tighten Wukong's headband and make him feel pain 2:09 White Bone guai(白骨精) 2:16 Wukong destroying the human shaped Ginseng tree(人参果树) because of his anger. This belongs to Great Zhenyuan Immortal(镇元大仙). 2:23 When the group first met Sha Wujing, he was still a river guai. Bajie fought to subdue him. 2:31 The five finger mountain(五指山) that Buddha made to seal Wukong after he lost to Budda. Tangsanzhang broke the seal. 3:07 The bet Wukong made with Buddha. He wrote "齐天大圣到此一游" on Buddha's finger which he didnt realised. It means "the Great Sage was here". He also peed on Buddha's palm. 3:21 Wukong's first rebellion against the heavenly court(大闹天空). Erlangshen on the left and Nezha on the right. 3:39 Wukong erasing his name from the book of life and death in Hell so he doesnt have a date for his death, making him immortal. 3:49 Wukong and his 6 sworn brothers. Bull demon king(牛魔王) is one of them. They vow to destroy the heavenly court. 4:05 This scene is back to the beginning of Black myth, his sworn brothers have mostly died or gone and he is now fighting alone.

[@edward8691]

1:05 Wukong being punished, but the ordinary people living around are being impacted and dying by the drought。 becasue Heaven set up 3 ordeals: Put a mountain of rice, to let a small chicken to eat, put a flour mountain, to let a puppy to lick, and put a giant metal lock, to let a tiny candle to burn it. Only when the chicken finish the rice mountain,the dog finish the flour mountain，and the candle burned down the Giant Lock, then Heaven would release a rain down to save people. ( Basically tells you it’s impossible)

[@avorkle6624]

Another detail that should be added is that Wukong, Bajie and Wujing tried to pass the ordeals themselves, but they ultimately failed. The mountain of rice and the mountain of flour would just refill themselves indefinately and Wukong's fire spell couldn't do any harm to the lock. The ordeals were never meant to be passed in the first place.

[@卓新启]

The flashback of the memory ,you should think it from the end to the beginning of the end scene. The first havoc (when you can see Wukong got brothers by his side) ,then he surrendered to the Buddha, then is the story of journey to the west. But he still fight even if he was already a Buddha. So in the beginning of the end scene, you see Erlang stabbed at him and Wukong chose to die, then you can goes back to the game. After experiencing the six chapters , the destined one inherit wukong’s will and fight back. This time, he is not controlled by the thing at his head, but he is alone now, his brother are all gone or dead

Normally I will recommended you to read book first. However, in case of Journey to the West, I recommend you to watch the 1986 live-action. Because it inspired everythung related to Journey to the West since then, including this game

[@lln-pk2zs]

Well, if you're short on time and looking for a good laugh out of it as well, go and check out Overly Sarcastic Production, they've been doing chapters of these as year's end episodes. I remember they've stopped at the part about a burning mountain and a bull demon which escalates into a kaiju battle between the latter and heaven's forces.

[@user-no8ec4wm8b]

I think it's hard to be useful bro, a big reason why this game is on fire in China is because the story is an unforgettable memory for people born in the 2000s, especially the music, it's like you're rummaging through a box of childhood toys when you're 50 years old and the memories just like flood, it's probably hard to feel it.

[@WEB-bh2lv]

Most of the content of this game is adapted from the 1986 Journey to the West, not the original novel. You should watch the 1986 Chinese TV series Journey to the West, which is the most classic and popular version.

[@caophuocthua8672]

If you watch Journey to the West, you can understand most of the scenes in this video. They comprise lots of monsters & challenges that Wukong, Bajie encounter on the journey to the West. For example, from 2:04 to 2:07, the master says the spell, it triggers the yellow ring on the head of Wukong to tighten & heart him. That's how the old master can manage him. This scene is the beginning part of Journey to the west 1986, ep.06.

Not really, there were two battles against the celestial court. One before the journey to the west, Wukong gathered all the brothers but defeated (the first toast). Most of the brothers were tamed and joined the court side afterwards. Wukong himself got captured and tortured for 500 years. Another was after the journey (lonely toast), he returned his award and wanted to be normal again, but his kindreds were killed empty and brothers were on the other side. So he was actually facing the enemies including his past brothers after the end of this animation, making it a huge huge tragedy.

Another cool detail is that you can see the difference between the flash back and when it loop back to the beginning of the game.
