Where to Watch Tonbo! in New Zealand

Tonbo! Has been quietly earning a loyal audience, and right now it's all available in Australia on Amazon Prime Video and Amazon Prime Video with Ads, and in the US on Amazon Prime Video and Amazon Prime Video with Ads. Rika Hayashi leads a cast that brings something genuine to every episode.

Japanese production values give Tonbo! A feel distinct from American and international alternatives. A dramatic tale of golf and humans, set on the beautiful Tokara Islands. Igarashi has thrown away his past and fled society, relocating to Hinoshima Island. Here, on "Japan's last hidden paradise," he meets Tonbo, the island’s only middle schooler. Rika Hayashi and Hiroki Touchi lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It aired in 2024–2025.

Animation fans will appreciate the craft, but Tonbo! Works equally well for viewers who don't typically seek out animated series — fans of Pride will feel at home. The medium is secondary to the quality.
