It was one of the first three anime films to be released in America, under the title Panda and the Magic Serpent, premiering in 1961, the month after Magic Boy. It is an adaptation of the Chinese tale Legend of the White Snake and is also known variously as The Great White Snake and The Tale of the White Serpent.
