(CR) Kenka Dokugaku (Viral Hit)[Spring 2024] Anticipation

[Stark700]

Kenka Dokugaku aka Viral Hit is getting an anime adaptation, coming in Spring 2024

Synopsis from Myanimelist

Bullied by his classmate and popular Newtube streamer Pakgo, Yoo Hobin's high school days are filled with humiliation and abuse. His troubles don't end there though; outside of school, Hobin slaves away at a part-time job to pay for his mother's hospital bills. One day, Hobin accidentally spills ramen on Pakgo's cameraman "Jiksae," tripping over a cord and disconnecting the other boy from his gaming stream. Finally fed up with his miserable lifestyle, Hobin fights back and ends up in a pathetic brawl with Jiksae.

The next morning, it is revealed that the camera from Jiksae's stream had been recording the two boys' entire embarrassing fight. Moreover, the footage was accidentally uploaded to Newtube and had gone viral overnight, earning Hobin a whopping ten million won from viewership.

Drawn to the money Newtube streaming can offer him and his mother, Hobin works together with unlikely ally Jiksae to produce more videos of him fighting and see how far Newtube streaming can take them. Taking on bullies like Pakgo and other seemingly unsurpassable opponents, Hobin will either rise to the top of the streaming world or finally meet a foe he can't outsmart.

It's a long series. I guess manwha is really trying to break through to animation.

I dropped the series because it was dragging, but I'll definitely check out a few episodes.

Same here, though I doubt I got as far as you might have . I do like the concept though, so depending on how fast... or slow, they adapt the material and how well they explain and animate the strategies, it may keep my interests this time =03.

Interesting premise. The bullied kid has a unfortunate background, and I couldn't believe he let the camera guy into his home in the first place. But I guess that was the set up for the plot moving forward as camera guy proposes a partnership (albeit unfair), only to be surprised by the bullied kid's savvy negotiation. Both can benefit from this partnership, while trying to secretly take advantage of the other. Interested to see how the short girl will play a role later on.

while the bullying always bother me, it's good that karma was paid quickly in the same chapter and this was really good and the next look even better going after that idiot pakgo.

the content is good, calling out bullies. Everybody loves to see bullies get what they deserve.
