Primo TV (Vme Media Inc.) announces the upcoming premiere of the hit anime series: Captain Tsubasa.
The English-dubbed series will make its U.S. premiere on August 4th, 10pm EST/7pm PST. New episodes will premiere every Saturday and Sunday thereafter.
“We are very happy to have secured the rights of Captain Tsubasa to air on Primo next month. Capitalizing on the recent success of the World Cup, the remake of the very popular manga series that premiered in the 80’s, will definitively captivate new audiences of soccer fanatics in the US,” said Doris Vogelmann, VP Programming, and Operations for Vme Media.
The new anime recounts the events of the original manga of the same name by Yoichi Takahashi, which ran in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine from 1981 to 1988.
The manga triggered a huge soccer boom in Japan and inspired three previous television anime series, four anime films, mobile and console video games, and even a stage play.
Centered on a young soccer prodigy named Tsubasa Ozora, the new series is from David Production, with Toshiyuki Kato directing. Each episode is characterized by dynamic and stylish soccer moves, while the characters are fleshed out through Tsubasa’s friendships and rivalries as he trains and competes.
“This fun and action-packed show is a perfect addition to the Primo lineup, and will have fans & soccer lovers at the edge of their seats each week!” says Kensuke Mase, director of Animation Licensing, VIZ Media.
The deal was secured by Beverly Hills-based Televix Entertainment.
