Ok this is pathetic, I need to go back and read the whole series again. 0.o;;;
Anyway, short description on the new series.
New Kungfu Boy
In the previous "Kung-Fu Boy" series, Chimni became the master of Kempo at Dairin temple, where he trained disciples. When they lose contact with Kyorinji, a temple of the same sect, Chinmi is dispatched to the Kanan Autonomous region to investigate. He tries to enter Kanan with Pushin, a swordmaster whom he met traveling to Kanan. But they are attacked after trying to enter Kanan and pursued by the Border Police who chase them into a waterfall. A fisherman saves them and aids their entrance into Kanan. The people of Kanan are forcibly oppressed by the government. Chinmi befriends the people and makes the big decision to free them with his Kempo. Sorabi Boru, Lieutenant of the Border Police and Jirai, the evil king of Kanan attack Chinmi...
As for how Tantan escaped, I've been told that Tantan fought to survive from drowning for days (exactly how I'm not too sure but it involved him pulling himself up towards to the top of the prison cell to breathe through the cellbars and hanging on there in the cold water for many hours ^^;;;; ).
(EDIT: Tantan managed to break the chains on his feet but could not break the prison cellbars.) Other prisoners from nearby prisons tossed him their food to help him regain strength and yelled words of encouragement whenever the water level resided. My friend told me that he thinks Shie Fan eventually found him and rescued him. Sheesh....this isn't a great explanation, when I find out anything better, I'll post here. ^_^;;;
