The Calendar Master: Beating Up Spirits One Holiday at a Time

When unemployed youth Xiao Nanzhu inherits his family's mystical trade, he discovers that being an Almanac Master means more than predicting fortunes—it means dealing with personified holidays who won't stop complaining. New Year's Eve threatens violence, Qingming demands overtime pay, and Winter Solstice just wants dumplings. Armed with ancient calendar arts that control seasons and festivals, all Xiao Nanzhu really wants is to punch some unruly spirits into submission. Urban fantasy meets supernatural comedy in this fresh take on Chinese mysticism.
