If you’re into shows about teenagers fighting demons while navigating high school, “Jentry Chau vs the Underworld,” a new show premiering this week on Netflix, might just be up your alley.

The 13-episode series, created by Echo Wu, follows Jentry Chau (voiced by Ali Wong), a Chinese American teen living in a small Texas town who finds out a demon king is hunting her for the supernatural powers she’s been working her whole life to repress.

With the help of her weapons expert great-aunt and a millennia-old jiangshi (Chinese hopping vampire), Jentry must now fight an entire underworld’s worth of monsters while balancing the horrors of high school.

According to Wu: “Sometimes finding your self-identity is coming face-to-face with your own demons.”

The show stars Ali Wong, Bowen Yang, Jimmy O. Yang, Lori Tan Chinn, Woosung and Lucy Liu.
