Niwatori Fighter

That's it for the anime "Rooster Fighter". This series is absurdly stupid, and it's actually quite watchable. It revolves around our main character, a rooster, who fights demons (there are exceptions regarding the demons themselves) in order to find the main villain who kidnapped his sister.

As for the visuals themselves, which are partly in 2D and 3D, they look okay, and the music is a masterpiece.

So, as for the rating, I'd probably give it a 7/10. It's a pretty interesting anime about chickens, and it might get another season, because after the last episode, it's clear that the plot in the anime is still unfinished, ... etc.

I definitely have some thoughts on this as a guy who read the manga and would put Roaster Fighters manga among one of the best

I really enjoyed this, Since I only caught up with the manga anyways after seeing the trailer for this thing and thought it was hilarious lol, But after seeing how beautiful some of the panels look in it's manga series, The half 3D/2D animation style they did for this makes me really mixed on it, Because unlike something like Beastars where it's mostly 3d this anime goes 50/50 not really committing to one animation style over the other and it ... can make the 3d kind of stand out in a bad way

That aside, I believe this was good and definitely worth a watch if you don't want to read it's manga, The first few episodes especially are absolutely incredible

My ranking for this is a good 7/10, If it didn't have it's 3d animation issue I'd probably rank it higher

I was excited when I heard that Rooster Fighter was getting an anime. I have read the first few chapters of the manga, and though it was an absurd title, I thought it would lend itself well as an action anime. The anime came and the first few episodes were sourced for several viral memes, like that kid offering the rooster KFC or that chicken risqué NTR scene. The visuals were great. The animation and choreography were well produced. The monsters, obviously CGI, were appropriately unsettling and grotesque.

However, several episodes in, especially at the midpoint, I realized that the overall story was mid. The action ... was good, but the story was mediocre, about standard for a shonen action anime. That was where it suffered, in fact, I recalled that I only read the first dozen chapters of the manga and was instantly bored. It redeemed itself near the end, the last few episodes were pretty good, and a lot of the lore and backstory was dumped. However, that was not enough to redeem my time when the story was going nowhere and did a 180-degree turn into a Dragonball Z pastiche.

The DBZ comparison is deliberate because it really looked like its analogue. The main character rooster is Goku, Elizabeth is a Bulma-type gadget person, Piyoko little chick is Krillin, and Morio is Piccolo. Those last few episodes really feel like a compressed DBZ fight arc.

I won't recommend watching the entire 12-episode season but pick out a few like the first episode and then the last 4 or 3. Otherwise, there are better shonen fighting anime.
