EGG FIRM is producing the anime, while White Fox is in charge of animation production. It was also announced that a sequel of the novel’s manga adaptation will launch in the first 2025 issue of Square Enix’s Monthly Big Gangan magazine on December 25. The sequel will be titled Busa-men Gachi-Fighter SSS (with SSS standing for Sugoi Side Story).
The Uglymug, Epicfighter (Busamen Gachi Fighter) novel was first published on the Shosetsuka ni Naro website from 2015 to 2022. A volume of it was published by Kobunsha in 2018. This was then followed with a manga adaptation being serialized at the Monthly Big Gangan from 2017 to 2020.
Manga UP! has serialized the series’ manga adaptation, with the plot described as:
His looks are -255, touching girls causes him pain, and sexual acts will literally tear him apart. Just what can our ex-salesman Shigeru get in the other world in exchange for such inconveniences…? This is an epic tale of one very ugly, but ridiculously strong man!
