Anime about a golfer 'Oi! Tonbo' receives new teaser, studio and premiere date
Synopsis:
The manga's story begins with Igarashi, who was disqualified as a professional golfer after a certain “incident” and therefore moves to the Tokara Islands in Kagoshima Prefecture in order to get out of the spotlight. On these islands known as “Japan’s last unexplored frontier,” he encounters a naive girl named Tonbo.
It turns out that these supposedly unexplored islands have a homemade golf course, where Tonbo plays every day. She demonstrates genius-level talent, playing all types of shots with just one golf club, a 3-iron. Igarashi is impressed by Tonbo's talent, even while harboring doubts about her using just a 3-iron. In the heart of Tonbo, there is a painful and sad past.
Finally, author Kawasaki and artist Furusawa launched the manga in Weekly Golf Digest, a golf magazine by Golf Digest Sha Co., Ltd., in August 2014. The 46th volume of the manga was released on May 1. September 2023.
