WATCH: ‘Go For It, Nakamura!’ Releases Vibrant & Whimsical Official Poster & Preview Video; Premieres 2025

‘Ganbare! Nakamura-kun!!’ (Go For It, Nakamura!) by Syundei follows Nakamura Okuto, a shy high school boy, who finds himself overwhelmed by unfamiliar feelings when his classmate, Hirose Aki, suddenly appears in his life. Though they’re not friends yet, Okuto’s heart races uncontrollably whenever he sees Hirose. With a nostalgic 80s-90s vibe and art style, the series depicts the funny delusions and antics of Nakamura as he navigates his unrequited love for Hirose.

The official account has unveiled the main visual poster of the anime adaptation, paying homage to the popular cover of the original manga source. The poster shows a vibrant and colorful anime-style illustration, with Nakamura in the center and the other characters surrounding him.

The preview video shows the vibrant animation style the anime will have. It mixes pastel colors with playful elements like hearts and octopuses, enhancing the whimsical feel. The director, Aoi Umeki, a fan of the original work and renowned for his visual style, will not only direct but also take on the roles of scriptwriter and character designer. The animation will be produced by the emerging studio Drive, known for hits like Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! 3 and Amagami-san Chi no Enmusubi. With a talented team, the studio aims to deliver visuals that are both nostalgic and fresh, capturing the essence of the original work.

A stage event will also be held at Naka-ikebukuro Park on November 9 at 3:10 PM (GMT+9) where the main cast of the anime adaptation will be announced.

 

SYNOPSIS (from Seven Seas): Nakamura is a shy boy who falls in love at first sight with one of his classmates–his dreamy high school classmate, Hirose. But there’s a problem: they haven’t met yet. And Nakamura is a total klutz who might bungle things before they even begin!

The adaptation is set to premiere in 2025, with more details to be announced soon. Please stay tuned to BLTai for news and updates on the anime!
