Ninjara" will be broadcast on 6 TV Tokyo networks! Takahiro Sakurai & Akari Kito cast comments also arrived!

The TV anime "Ninjara" will air on Saturday, January 8, 2022, at 10:30 a.m. on TV Tokyo.

The anime is based on the original "Ninjara," a competitive Ninjagam action game for Nintendo Switch; the game was released in June 2020 and has been downloaded more than 8 million times worldwide this year on October 13, 2020.

A web animation that conveys the world view and characters has been produced and released so far, but this is the first full-fledged animated TV series.

The key visual released in conjunction with the TV broadcast in January 2022 depicts the eight main characters (Burton, Berekka, Ron, Byrne, Emma, Jane, Kappei, and Lucy) and Gamutchi, who are also familiar from the game, representing the exciting worldview.

Takahiro Sakurai and Akari Kito appear in the film as voice actors. The opening theme is "Maybaby Baby" by Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, and the ending theme is "Ninja Like Ninja" by Warpiskarter.

Both "Maybaby Baby" and "Ninjalike Ninja" are groovy songs that will surely enliven the world of Ninjara. Both those who have already enjoyed the game and those who are watching the anime can enjoy the world of "Ninjara".

In addition, in conjunction with the data broadcasting, a gift plan is being planned for those who watch the program. The latest information on the "Ninjara" anime will be posted on the program's homepage and the official Ninjara website.
