The Turkey! Time to Strike TV anime has received a character trailer for the bespectacled Nanase Nikaido. 

Turkey!-Time to Strike- will premiere in Japan on July 8 JST (effectively July 9 at 1:29 AM JST). Crunchyroll will stream it as part of its Summer 2025 lineup starting July 8.

The show’s premise reads:

Will you believe me? 

A story that is mysterious, precious, bittersweet, and irreplaceable— 

Can’t be described as simply fun. 

“Turkey” is a bowling term for scoring three consecutive strikes. 

This is the story of Mai, the “a genius who never wins” and her teammates—Rina, Sayuri, Nozomi, and Nanase—members of the Ikkokukan High School Bowling Club. 

They fight, they fall, but they rise again, chasing victory. 

This is the tale of a summer’s final chapter.
