Rooster Fighter is an action animated series that began in 2026. It follows Keiji, a rooster who is more than just an ordinary bird—he is humanity's greatest defender. The story revolves around his battles against strange, giant creatures that suddenly appear and threaten the world. Keiji confronts these foes with a fierce spirit and his signature battle cry, "Kokekokko!" Despite their size—some towering ten stories high—Keiji's stout heart and determination drive him to stand against the monstrous threats.
The cast includes Kenta Miyake as Keiji, Mariko Honda as Elizabeth, and Shiori Izawa as Piyoko. As a recent series, it continues to deliver action-packed adventures with a humorous twist.
