G-Man and his arch-nemesis, the evil G-Head, have been enemies for ages. To fight against G-Head's wicked schemes, G-man assembles a team of heroes from various eras. However, G-man slowly realizes that his perception of being the hero is nothing more than an illusion, while G-Head simply desires to lead a normal life. A wild, hilarious satirical rarity from Capsules, the indie animation showcase series on China’s video platform Bilibili, Liu Yuchen’s G-MAN: A QIXIA IN SPACE is a miniature masterpiece that can only be witnessed in a non-commercial context. – Xige Yi
