WIT Studio’s original TV anime The Rolling Girls was first broadcast in back 2015, and now the series is gearing up for its 10th anniversary with a special talk event that will be held at 7pm JST at the LOFT9 Shibuya venue in Tokyo on December 17, 2024.
The event is entitled “The Rolling Girls! Memories of Travel 2024”, and it features director Kotomi Deai, screenwriter Yasuyuki Muto, original character creator Katsuhiko Kitada, and voice actor Ari Ozawa (the voice of lead character Nozomi Morimoto) as guests. Tickets to the event cost 2800 yen (about $17.98 US).
The Rolling Girls was released on home video in the United States by Funimation, who describe the story of the series as follows:
Between super-powered fighters known as “Bests” battling across the city and fanatical vigilante squads cheering them on from the ground below, it’s easy for an average girl to get lost in the shuffle. But when her town’s Best gets taken out by a rival, Nozomi Moritomo gasses up her motorcycle and sets off across Japan to take her place. Joined by the feisty wannabe Best, Ai, the wandering artist Yukina, and the spacy but mysterious Chiaya, Nozomi and her makeshift motorcycle gang cross the country settling scores between warring districts. In a world that favors the Best over the rest, it’s hard for an average girl to find where she belongs, but one thing’s for sure—until she gets there, it’s going to be a wild ride.
