Monkey (1978)

S1E1 Monkey Goes Wild about Heaven

The cunning King Monkey is called to Heaven, where he pilfers the divine peaches and consumes them to achieve immortality. In the ensuing chaos, he battles two of the Emperor's officials, leading to their collective banishment to Earth. Monkey finds himself trapped beneath a heavy mountain, while the other two are cursed into becoming a pig monster named Pigsy and a water monster called Sandy. Buddha declares that a holy man must embark on a journey to India to retrieve sacred scriptures, aiming to restore balance to the world.
