It has been announced that the manga “Busamen Gachi Fighter” will be adapted into a TV anime. A teaser visual was released to accompany the announcement. Comments have also been received from the original author Hiromatsu Ryo, manga artist Kozuki Wosamu, and Suwabe Junichi, who plays the main character Yoshioka Shigeru.
“Ugly Men Gachi Fighter” is a story about the strongest “ugly” adventure in another world, based on a novel by Ryo Hiromatsu and serialized in “Monthly Big Gangan” based on a novel by Wosamu Kozuki. After being convicted of a crime he did not commit and becoming distrustful of women, Shigeru Yoshioka (34) lost everything and wasted his days as an unemployed shut-in.
Meanwhile, when Shigeru happens to come across a way to go to another world and tries it, a mysterious screen appears on his PC. It is a status screen that determines his abilities in the other world. Thus, Shigeru sacrifices his looks to gain 5,100 parameters, which is a hundred trillion times more than usual, and begins his second life as an “absolute god.”
The recently announced TV anime adaptation will be produced by EGGFIRM, the same company behind “Mushoku Tensei II: Jobless Reincarnation II – I’ll Seriously Try If I Go to Another World,” and produced by WHITE FOX, the same company behind “Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-” and “Is the Order a Rabbit?”. Details such as broadcast information are scheduled to be released at a later date.
The teaser visual released at the same time has the catchphrase “And so, the ugly guy became an absolute god.” It is an impactful finish with a close-up of the protagonist Shigeru’s face, standing alone in the darkness. It was also revealed that the role of Shigeru will be played by Suwabe Junichi. Original author Hiromatsu, manga artist Kozuki, and Suwabe each provided comments.
In addition, to commemorate the TV anime adaptation, the official X (formerly Twitter) has started a project where you can win an autographed colored paper by Suwabe. It has also been revealed that the sequel to the original manga, “Busamen Gachi Fighter SSS”, will start serialization in “Monthly Big Gangan 2025 Vol. 01 (Square Enix)” from December 25th. With the TV anime adaptation and the start of the sequel serialization, keep an eye on “Busamen Gachi Fighter”.
