The synopsis and advance cuts for Episode 1 of the new anime "Honō no Tōkyūjo: Dodge Danko" have been released.
Currently serialized in Shukan Corocoro Comic, "Honō no Tōkyūjo: Dodge Danko" is the official sequel to "Honō no Tōkyūji: Dodge Danpei," which achieved overwhelming popularity in the 1990s. The manga's creator, Tetsuhiro Koshita, has historically sparked social phenomena through his works—igniting a dodgeball boom with "Honō no Tōkyūji: Dodge Danpei" and a Mini 4WD boom with "Bakusō Kyōdai Let's & Go!!". In 2022, he launched this new serialization centering on Danko Ichigeki (voiced by Manaka Nakayama), the daughter of the original protagonist Danpei Ichigeki (voiced by Katsuyuki Konishi / childhood voiced by Noriko Hidaka). The series has garnered massive attention, primarily across social media, ever since its initial debut.
