Last year, GungHo Entertainment officially revealed that a Ninjala anime was in the works, with a 2022 release window. Well, it looks like folks won’t have to wait too long to catch the new show!

The official Ninjala website has revealed that this new anime series will debut in Japan on 8 January 2022 in Japan, on various television studios. If you live outside Japan, an English broadcast of each episode will also be available for one week on the PlayNinjala official YouTube channel every Thursday at 7PM (PST) starting from 13 January 2022.

Here’s an official synopsis of the anime below:

Ninja-Gum, a substance known to strengthen the power of the Shinobi that dwells within and draw it out…

Burton, Berecca, and Ron, three researchers at the World Ninja Association, or WNA, take it on themselves to develop it in secret. Unfortunately, they have only managed to produce failure after failure.

But after three whole years of experimentation, they finally succeed in producing Ninja-Gum!

“Ninjala”, the extreme ninja battle tournament that uses Ninja-Gum is held in order to find the strongest Shinobi, but incidents and conspiracies involving Ninja-Gum and the existence of unknown beings take place behind the scenes…

The Ninjala anime series featuring the eight main characters in the game (Burton, Berecca, Ron, Van, Emma, Jane, Kappei, and Lucy), as well as Gumchi, is starting!
