NANBAKA English Sub & Dub

About NANBAKA

Here is what NANBAKA (ナンバカ) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, comedy and drama anime by Satelight (2016). In short: Four men are assigned to the prison: Juugo, a man who attempted to break out of prison and ended up extending his jail time; Uno, a man who likes to gamble with women; Rokku, a man who likes to get into fights; and Nico.

In an action series like this, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Rock (Airu Shiozaki) and Nico (Daiki Kobayashi) are two of the characters you will meet early.

If you count yourself among viewers who like fast, high-impact fights, put it on your list. The run is 13 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
