The anime Baki-Dou, based on the manga by Keisuke Itagaki, has announced a special collaboration with Crystal Gym, a training gym produced by comedian Noda Crystal of the duo Magical Love Lovely. TMS Entertainment created exclusive new illustrations for the occasion.
The newly drawn artwork reimagines three Crystal Gym trainers — Noda Crystal, Aoki Macho, and Shinya — in the gritty, muscular visual style of Baki-Dou. All three are comedians who also serve as trainers at the gym.
Collaboration Merchandise Now on Sale
A range of goods using the collab artwork and logo are available, including acrylic stands, keychains, T-shirts, and pin badges. Gym-friendly items such as sweatshirts, sweatpants, sports towels, and drawstring backpacks are also part of the lineup.
All items are on sale at Animarutto!, the official TBS/MBS anime goods store, and the official MegaSports online shop. From October 9, products will also be available at MegaSports brick-and-mortar stores nationwide.
