#Bowling Anime Turkey!’s Heroines Go Airborne in New Key Visual

A second key visual for the original bowling anime Turkey!-Time to Strike- has been released.

In addition to the visual, which places the five main heroines among the clouds, there are new staff details and a description of the premise. The latter reads:

Will you believe me?

A story that is mysterious, precious, bittersweet, and irreplaceable—

Can’t be described as simply fun.

“Turkey” is a bowling term for scoring three consecutive strikes.

This is the story of Mai, the “a genius who never wins” and her teammates—Rina, Sayuri, Nozomi, and

Nanase—members of the Ikkokukan High School Bowling Club.

They fight, they fall, but they rise again, chasing victory.

This is the tale of a summer’s final chapter.
