Overview

Rooster Fighter is an animated action, comedy, and supernatural television series that premiered in 2026. The series is based on the work of creator Shû Sakuratani and features 2D animation produced by the studio Sanzigen. The plot centers on a rooster named Keiji, who serves as humanity's greatest defender against opponents that can reach ten stories in height. Despite the massive size of his adversaries, Keiji relies on his stout heart and his signature battle cry, Kokekokko, to protect the innocent. The English-language voice cast includes Patrick Seitz, Luci Christian, Kimoy Lee, and Erin Yvette, with voice production handled by Studiopolis. The series began its release in March 2026, with episodes appearing on platforms including Adult Swim, Hulu, and Disney+. This production is categorized as an anime series and is noted for its off-kilter comedic tone.
