The Rolling Girls, the energetic 2015 original anime from Wit Studio, has arrived on Crunchyroll with both English dub and subtitles. The series follows four high school girls who discover they have superpowers and are tasked with protecting their town from a rival faction.
Known for its fluid animation and surreal, punk-rock infused aesthetic, The Rolling Girls drew inspiration from the music of the band The Blue Hearts, with episode titles and its soundtrack directly referencing their songs. This unique blend of action, superpowered hijinks, and a coming-of-age story centered on an ensemble cast makes it a standout title from the studio that also brought us Attack on Titan and Vinland Saga.
Though it only ran for 12 episodes, the complete series offers a self-contained, visually dazzling experience. Its blend of cute girls doing cute things with high-octane superhero action and a distinctive visual style makes it a memorable watch for those seeking something off the beaten path.
