The official X (formerly Twitter) account for writer Juntarō Aoki and artist Shin Moriyama’s Nabe ni Dangan wo Ukenagara (Getting Shots on a Frying Pan, also known as Nabetama) manga announced a TV anime adaptation will premiere in 2027. The anime is being produced by J.C. Staff, and the teaser visual and character artwork for protagonist Juntarō were revealed.
Aoki launched the Getting Shots on a Frying Pan manga in 2021 on Kadokawa’s Comic Newtype web manga magazine. Kadokawa published the manga’s first compiled book volume in January 2022. The manga is among the top 20 list for male readers in the 2023 edition of Takarajimasha’s Kono Manga ga Sugoi! (This Manga Is Amazing!) guidebook.
Nabe ni Dangan wo Ukenagara is described as a non-fiction, chaotic and hardcore gourmet report manga. The story centers on Juntarō, a beautiful girl who travels in dangerous places around the world to taste a variety of local dishes. Juntarō wants to achieve “50,000 points of deliciousness.”
