On August 26, Imagineer announced the anime television series, Kimi to Fit Boxing<\/em>. The series will air on TOKYO MX, starting on October 1, 2021, and is based on the Fitness Boxing<\/strong> <\/em>series for the Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kimi to Fit Boxing<\/a> <\/em>will be a short comedy anime, focusing on the instructors who appear in the Fitness Boxing <\/em>series, and portraying their everyday lives on the other side of the game screen. The familiar crew of voice actors from the game will also be co-starring in the anime. The specific broadcast time will be at 9:54 pm every Friday night on TOKYO MX, in a 5-minute time slot. (This time slot is currently rerunning episodes of Bessatsu Olympia Kyklos.<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fitness Boxing <\/em>is a hit fitness game series with total sales of over 1.8 million units. It not only lets you gamify your aerobic exercise, but also has another \u201ccharacter-driven\u201d side to it, thanks to the instructors who go through the activities with you. Trying to adapt it into an anime by basing it around these instructors is certainly an interesting experiment.
