FX Senshi Kurumi-chan Opens with Kurumi Entering the FX Battlefield
The premiere puts the recovery of a 20 million yen FX loss at the center of a KADOKAWA Flapper manga adaptation built around trading rather than a school club, which is the premise the broadcast and streaming rollout now has to sell.

FX Senshi Kurumi-chan begins airing Thursday, October 1, 2026 on AT-X, TOKYO MX, BS11, and Kantele. Episode 1, "What Is FX?", shows Kurumi as a third-year middle school student learning her mother Kozue lost 20 million yen in FX, then deciding to trade the market to recover it. Time passes and Kurumi, now a university student, steps onto the battlefield. Passione handles animation under director Yuki Ogawa, from the manga by Demunyan and Tansan Daisuki.
The first episode moves in two stages. Kurumi overhears as a third-year middle school student that her mother, Kozue, lost 20 million yen in foreign exchange margin trading, and decides to learn FX herself to take the money back before her father finds out. Kozue's condition worsens as time goes on. By the time Kurumi is a university student, she enters the market herself.
Aina Suzuki voices Fukuka Kurumi. Asami Seto, Ayasa Ito, and Miho Okasaki play the FX warriors Mochiko, Mebuki, and Yasuko. Episodes 1 and 2 air at 25:55 on Kantele.
