FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
YA BOY KONGMING! ENGLISH DUB TAKES THE HIDIVE STAGE ON SEPTEMBER 23!
You’ve watched the anime, you’ve watched the God-Tier OP that is “Chiki Chiki Ban Ban,” and you’ve been wondering when we’re dubbing the dark horse of the Spring 2022 season. Mark your calendars for Friday, September 23, 2022 at 1:00 PM ET (17:00 UTC), because that’s when HIDIVE premieres the first English dubbed episode of Ya Boy Kongming!
Synopsis
The music industry becomes a battlefield when ancient strategist Kongming is transported from historical China to modern Japan. He’ll use military tactics to turn his new friend Eiko into a music star, and together they’ll take the party hotspot of Shibuya by storm! The story is a clever take (and smart twist) on fish-out-of-water and person-out-of-time themes with out-of-this-world results for Ya Boy Kongming!
