| Well this one is official so no haters okay? Quoted from animenewsnetwork Japanese financial newspaper Nikkei reported on Sunday that Japanese television network TV Asahi is producing a new anime titled Barangay 143, developed specifically to target the Philippines. TV Asahi is collaborating with Philippine animation and game developer Synergy88. The anime will air in 2017, although the report didn't specifically state that the series will air in the Philippines.  TV Asahi is handling character design and direction on the Japanese side, while Synergy88 is writing the scripts and handling production. Barangay 143 will tell the story of basketball players in Manila ("barangay" is an administrative unit of a town or city, usually denoting a clustered community). The report mentioned that Barangay 143 may be exported later to other Southeast Asian markets. Nikkei further indicated that the anime has a "prime-time" schedule, didn't reveal which television network will air the anime. Source: Nikkei (Manabu Ito) |

| Hmm... Why basketball specifically? I'd rather they not have weird accents as well. |
| ^ Because PH is known for having a huge love towards basketball (and boxing as well) I'm looking forward seeing this one (and the seiyuus also) |
| Instead of quoting it and calling it official why not just post the link? |

Most sports watchers tend to not watch anime, and vice versa(I don't have statistics, merely from observation). Plus, the Japanese don't know how the Southern Tagalog accent works (which is the majority accent in Manila) |

And the poster had a blonde. I hope it will be good. |

Well if the storyline and art is good, and if one of PH's local tv stations broadcasts it, maybe those guys will get to watch it? It's basketball after all |
| Am I the only one terrified cause the scripts will be managed by Filipino writers? Still hype though. XD |
 |
| I'm betting, it will be having a romance. |

| I have a bad feeling about this but still gonna try this.. |
 |
| arent you pinoys too much into mmo's? they should have made a fantasy game based one instead. whos doing the va, japs or u ppl? I dont give a shit, most of the dubs i watch are animax pinoy eng dubs anyways..... |
| I thought this was Nutshack spam at first. |
 |
Brgy 143 is a real place in Tondo. But I doubt it'll be set there. 143 probably means that. |
| Basketball in the Philippines huh...Well I hope it does well. Personally, I think an anime based on Jose Rizal would have been ideal... |
 |
| Lol... As long Pacman will be the VA in that series... Its gonna be 10/10 Lol... The History has been "re-write" by some random Prez in Phi... Not gonna happen.... |
| Ehh. I'm not too enthusiastic about this. Hope it goes well though |
 I'm Mei i love bunnies 2 death and pixels  |

 |
| I dont like the art style, looks like a cartoon. the title is very cringe :D hahaha 143 means "I love you"? hahhahaha well, maybe its good, but I still dont watch it though :D |
The world is cruel, ugly and pitiful. Let's watch anime and make it colorful |

I honestly think that won't grab any attention in the mainstream community in PH. Might for some, but the majority no. |
|
| I do not know what will happen with this anime but I wanna watch it XD Some Filipinos help making anime so I wanna see this XD Hahhaha. Will this be available here at MAL? XD |
 - barely alive - |
| this is gonna suck, BADLY.................. |
| Being a Filipino myself, I am honestly happy with this development because it might lead to good things for the Philippines regarding anime. However, seeing as the script is done by my people, I have extremely low expectations of this. |
 |
| I'd be down. I know a lot of folks who live there who love voice acting, so I wonder if they'll be itching to get in somehow-- or maybe this will give them some type of opportunities in the future/open more doors for animation roles and other media involving voice work for them? That'd be great! |
| >Script and Production will be managed by a Philippine company I'm interested but this worries me. Well, here's hoping they can somehow manage to exceed my low expectations. |

The art is making me cringe. Let's hope the animation will look better than that. ^ Is that the same thing? |
 |
| I think every sports anime about dudes throwing balls should have 'gay' included so we can sort stuff easier. jk, I will give it a try, hope it has a good soundtrack BRB-kun said: Symptomatic said: ^ Because PH is known for having a huge love towards basketball (and boxing as well) I'm looking forward seeing this one (and the seiyuus also) That's the thing.

 Oshii is probably the only director that loves dogs. He thinks he's a dog himself. That's right, its slime! It will dissolve your clothing slowly before my eyes! |
| this is sparkling my interest since i love sports anime and have lots of friends from the philippines |
| Sonic X is basically an isekai |
| Maybe TV Asahi found out that their anime Slam Dunk was very popular in the Philippines and decided to make another one based on the country and basketball. |

mizukasa said: The art is making me cringe. Let's hope the animation will look better than that. ^ Is that the same thing? I'm fine with the art because it looks like something that came from an otome game. But why the fuck is that other guy wearing something that looks like a captain's hat while playing basketball? |

| An anime set in the Philippines...what a surprise~ I'm not that into sports anime so I don't know what to expect but I'd give it a try anyway to see how good our scriptwriters can be. |

cchirukaa said: Am I the only one terrified cause the scripts will be managed by Filipino writers? Still hype though. XD Well after enduring countless of low quality love stories, low quality mistress stuff,low quality rip-off of western shows our entertainment media has to offer I understand where you're getting at but I think it's a breathe of fresh air for a Filipino sports dedicated show to air here in the Phil though it smells like a rip-off of Kuroko no Basuke which is our country were good at making rip-offs but still if they can implement some of the Filipino cultures here then I'll at least give this a chance I guess lol |

Tenshi_Shura said: couldn't agree more. I hope it doesn't turn into a TFC-like drama, like Be Careful With My Heart: Basketball Edition!Being a Filipino myself, I am honestly happy with this development because it might lead to good things for the Philippines regarding anime. However, seeing as the script is done by my people, I have extremely low expectations of this. |
  behind these hills i'm reaching for the heights  |
| I really don't know. I am excited to see what it will be like though. It has been said that it will be taking place in Barangay 143, the editors took pictures of the district for reference. The reason it is a sports anime is because it is basically to show what Filipino kids are up to in their free time. Maybe in the future someone will make another one with a different concept lol. The studios which will be working on it are Asahi TV, Synergy88, August Media Holdings It is going to be Tagalog (Filipino) and English dubbed. They released a phone game as a sort of test, the graphics and concept are good but it is in all Tagalog and there is a lot of room for improvement. An official subscription game will be released soon though. Pictures of the anime    Pictures of the game    If the pics don't show or are too big then sorry. |
