What Is Rising Impact? 

Rising Impact was Nakaba Suzuki’s very first manga series that released in the pages of Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine back in 1998. Hitoshi Nanba will be directing the anime for Lay-duce with Michihiro Tsuchiya writing the scripts, Kiyotaka Oshiyama as character designer, and Masaru Yokoyama composing the music. The cast for Rising Impact includes the likes of Misaki Kuno as Gawain Nanaumi, Yumiri Hanamori as Lancelot Norman, Yo Taichi as Kiria Nishino, Atsumi Tanezaki as Kurumi Nishino, Kaede Hondo as Yumiko Koizumi, Yuto Uemura as Liebel Ringvald, Yumi Uchiyama as Platalissa Bonaire, Eiji Takamoto as Wanglian Li, Shunsuke Takeuchi as Riser Hopkins, and Katsuyuki Konishi as Kai Todoin. 

As for what to expect from the new anime, Netflix teases Rising Impact as such, “The golf manga Rising Impact — the first serialized manga by Nakaba Suzuki, author of the mega-hit series The Seven Deadly Sins — began its run in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1998 and gained enthusiastic support from fans. And now, 25 years later, it is finally being adapted into an anime! Over the course of two seasons, this series follows the growth of third-grader Gawain Nanaumi as he encounters the sport of golf and competes with his rivals.”
