Rooster Fighter Takes Over Toonami This March

Rooster Fighter, the highly anticipated action anime adapted from the critically acclaimed manga by Shu Sakuratani and produced by VIZ Media in collaboration with HERO’S INC., will premiere on Adult Swim’s Toonami on March 14 at 12:00 a.m. ET/PT. The series will begin streaming March 15 at 1:00 a.m. PT on Hulu in the United States and on Disney+ in select international territories.

Keiji is no ordinary rooster.
