On This Day in Anime

A decade ago, fans of the uniquely bizarre sports anime Keijo!!!!!!!! saw the conclusion of its six-episode special run. These specials continued the high-energy, often absurd, premise of girls competing in water-based 'Pushing Battles' where the goal is to knock opponents off floating platforms using only their breasts and buttocks. It was a concept that certainly stood out, blending athletic competition with ecchi comedy.

For those who embraced Keijo!!!!!!!!'s outlandish premise, the specials provided exactly what they were looking for: more over-the-top action and character interactions. While certainly not for everyone, the series carved out a niche for its sheer commitment to its ridiculous concept. The specials serve as a final burst of that signature energy, offering a memorable, if unconventional, conclusion for the show's dedicated fanbase.
