The franchise is a collaboration between Bandai, Shogakukan, and Toei Animation, and includes an anime, a manga, a game, and a toy line.
Bandai’s official website for the Bakutsuri Bar Hunter multimedia franchise revealed on Thursday that the franchise’s television anime will premiere this fall on TV Tokyo and its affiliates.
The Bakutsuru Bar Rod will be an attachment for a player’s Nintendo 3DS, and players can then download a free Bakutsuru Bar Hunter game for the 3DS to play the game.
And in this world, people can use a “Bakutsuri Bar Rod” fishing rod to fish for and collect the bar souls using AR (augmented reality).
