Asobi Asobase Director Shows Off His New Buff Bod

Director Seiji Kishi is well known for his impressive resume. He's helmed anime favorites like Angel Beats!, Yuki Yuna Is a Hero, Persona 4 The Animation, Danganronpa The Animation, Tsuki ga Kirei, and most recently the crass comedy Asobi Asobase -workshop of fun-.

Recently, Kishi has taken to Twitter to share more personal matters, namely his recent physical transformation. Kishi has started muscle training over the last six months and says that he has dropped his body fat percentage from 27% to 11% through exercise.

Kishi got help via a physical trainer to achieve his goals and he shared his trainer's Instagram account. Kishi recommended using a trainer for individuals who might feel hesitant to go to a 'macho gym.' The below tweet is Kishi's worksheet showing his current BMI and weight and another photo of him flexing.

Danganronpa voice actress Megumi Ogata congratulated Kishi on his success and jokingly suggested he was motivated by Kengan Ashura. Kishi is directing the anime set to premiere in 2019, and it focuses on buff characters engaging in hand-to-hand combat.
