VIZ Media made an exciting announcement at San Diego Comic-Con 2024. They revealed that the popular manga Rooster Fighter is getting its own anime adaptation. This news has fans buzzing with excitement. Even though there’s no release date yet, the anticipation is high.
The anime is based on the manga by Shu Sakuratani. It’s a unique story about a rooster named Keiji. But Keiji isn’t just any rooster; he fights for what is right.

A teaser video was shared at the event, showing Keiji battling a massive, humanoid enemy. This enemy has huge hands and a big head, like something from the game Elden Ring. Fans got even more excited when they saw a special illustration from Sakuratani celebrating the announcement. The official Twitter account for the anime also released a striking visual poster.
Sakuratani shared his joy about the anime adaptation. He has always dreamed of seeing his manga become an anime. His dream is now coming true, and he’s thrilled. He thanked VIZ Media and the fans for their support.
