Sentai Filmworks to Produce English Dub for 'Kämpfer' Anime Series

Posted in: Anime News

It was announced on Wednesday by Sentai Filmworks that they will be producing an English dub for the 2009 gender-swapping anime series Kämpfer.

As of this time, the company has not officially revealed the released date as well as the following cast for this production. Back in 2011, they were able to release the anime series (original Japanese language with English subtitles) in DVD. A Blu-Ray release was also released in 2014

Kämpfer is based on the light novel series of the same name created by Toshihiko Tsukiji. The anime is produced by animation studio Nomad and directed by Yasuhiro Kuroda.

Sentai Filmworks reveals the synopsis:

Waking up transformed into a beautiful girl might be the stuff of some guys’ fantasies, but when the suddenly effeminatized Natsuru is informed by a stuffed tiger that he’s now a Kämpfer, a mystical fighter who has to fight other Kämpfers in female form, his life becomes a living nightmare! Putting aside the obvious “plumbing” issues, Natusru’s best childhood friend turns out to swing the other way and SHE has a crush on his new female body. Not complex enough? Natsuru’s school has separate sections for boys and girls, so he and she are now double enrolled. The rumor-mill has it that he’s dating herself. And there are other Kämpfers attending the school who want to take her out, and he’s not sure which ones mean “on a date” and which ones mean “permanently.”
