Nonopanda is a popular online cartoon character in China created by Lin Wuzhi, a Shanghai-based “bedroom” animator and cartoon designer. Wuzhi’s latest work was uploaded to Tudou just a few days ago and already has nearly a million views. Check it out below. Watch closely and you’ll notice quite a few pop culture references, some unique to China (e.g. grass mud horse, green dam girl, etc. – even a dancing panda-ized version of Michael Jackson makes an appearance).
