Akita Shoten’s editor Uda, who is in charge of Yu Muraoka’s girls judo-themed manga Mou Ippon! (“Ippon Again!”), announced on Twitter today that an anime adaptation of the manga is now in the works.
The protagonist Michi Sonoda was planning to retire from judo after winning the third year junior high school tournament.
The story takes place in a high school girls’ judo club in Saitama Prefecture.
