The Oi Tonbo! TV anime adaptation has received a teaser trailer and visual, with both featuring the titular heroine Tonbo.
It was also revealed that OLM is producing the anime with SMDE as the CG production company, and that the show will premiere in Spring 2024.
Oi Tonbo! is based on the Golf Digest-published manga written by Ken Kawasaki with art by Yuu Furusawa. The premise sees Kazuyoshi Igarashi moving to the Tokara Islands after a certain incident causes him to lose his qualification as a professional golfer. There, he encounters Tonbo, who frequently plays golf on the island’s handmade golf courses. Kazuyoshi is amazed by Tonbo’s impressive skills, but also wonders why she uses nothing but a 3-iron. Meanwhile, buried deep in Tonbo’s heart is a painful, sad past.
The manga began serialization in Weekly Golf Digest in 2014 and has 46 tankoubon volumes as of September 2023.
