Panda and the Magic Serpent (1958)

With the help of his animal friends, Xu-Xian attempts to overcome obstacles placed by a local monk in order to reunite with his princess love. Known for being the first color anime and one of the first to reach United States soil, the animation is adorably rendered, particularly the two animals. Sadly the version I watched on Hoopla was a poor copy and the colors and line work are rather faded and washed out.
