The fall 2016 anime series Anitore! EX! Xx, which focused on cute girls showing viewers how to get some basic exercises in the span of a few minutes, is coming back for a second installment and has now been scheduled. Crunchyroll has picked up the rights to stream the series worldwide outside of Asia with plans for the first episode to arrive on October 5th, 2016 at 10:55am ET.
The main cast includes Miku Itō as Asami Hoshi, Azumi Waki as Eri Higuchi, Miyu Komaki as Shizuno Saotome, Maria Naganawa as Shion Tachibana, Kanon Takao as Yū Hiraoka and Eri Suzuki as Sakura.
The show is centered around exercise with various girls that want to be idols doing the workout with the viewers. This is similar in a sense to the Makura no Danshi series with a semi-interactive element to it. The show is directed by Atsushi Nigorikawa based on the series composition from Daisuki Ishibashi and character designs by Shuuhei Yamamoto. Animation is being produced by Rising Force.
Plot concept: “Move your soul and body!” Each episode contains a variety of routines, such as push-ups, sit-ups, spine twists, dance, yoga, stretches, trunk training, and taichi. Five girls aiming to become idols will exercise with you, and that troubling body fat percentage will go down by 1000%…!?
