The Cradle series by Will Wight would be pretty cool. It’s 12 books long but tightly paced and doesn’t mire itself in a bunch of tiny details like The Wheel of Time would. It’s set in an ancient Chinese fantasy world that’s part of a greater struggle in the multiverse and reads like a shonen. Its protagonist, Wei Shi Lindon starts off as a pariah with no powers before being rescued by a demigod who gives him a way to alter the fate of him and his home from an apocalyptic ending.
A 2 hour long animatic was released a few months ago and covers the first 2 books fairly well. A fully animated trailer was also released showing the promise of how well it would look if it took off.
