Title (Japanese) | Ganbare Genki | Advertising Fantasy Novel |
Notes | It.= "Forza, Sugar" Based on a manga by Yu Koyama. |
Classification | - |
Synopsis | Young Genki is interested in boxing. His father, a former feather-weight champion, decides to stage a come-back, and Genki acts as his dad's trainer. There is opposition within the family, and bullying at school. |
Review | Quite lively anime, told in a rather comic style. It seems that Genki's grandparents are quite rich. Genki is a small boy, but still manages to trash all the school bullies when they gang up on him and he gets mad because they mess with his dad's boxing gloves. His class teacher, a young woman, is very sympathetic. The style is typical of the period. |
