Hi Manga Readers and Typers,

Tekken Chinmi

Author: MAEKAWA Takeshi

Genres: Action Adventure Comedy Martial Arts Shounen Slice of Life

Chinmi is a young Chinese boy devoted to martial arts training. Word of
his skill reaches the kung-fu masters at the famous Dailin temple who
invite him to study with them. Through his own dedication and the
guidance of his teachers, Chinmi becomes one of the top students at the
temple. Eventually the time comes for him to leave Dailin and make a
pilgrimage. On his journey he faces a number of dangers that test his
skills, but he also meets many people who inspire him in different ways.
A chastened but determined Chinmi returns to Dailin for advanced
training. But soon his skills are needed again - the Mongol hordes are
nearing the temple.

I found this 1988 manga about a young Chinese boy who does not fall in
a cursed pond but is a master of kung-fu. It is now online at the
usual sites.
The art is typical of the period with echoes of Kimagure Orange Road
and of earlier Tezuka young heroes.
The first chapter is amusing as he exerises his karate powers on
filling the water tank as and dealing a Drunken Master who is looking
for a young man to fulfill a prophecy. Dealing as well with villains.
He travels to a martial arts temple for the opportunity to drink more
rice wine and to train.
This leads to several other stories with the same hero. But we
have over 40 chapters online and the first two are pretty long.
