Frog Twitter account confirmed the news using the hashtag "For real" (#本当). Key visual The original Sgt. Frog manga by artist Mine Yoshizaki is serialized in KADOKAWA's Monthly Shonen Ace magazine since 1999. The manga's first TV anime adaptation started airing in Japan in April 2004 until April 2011. All 357 episodes are available on Crunchyroll from Discotek Media, who describe the series: Keroro is Sergeant Frog - the leader of a platoon of warriors sent to conquer planet Earth. But when the amphibious invaders discovered how much humans enjoy dissecting their comrades, the troops were scattered, the mission was aborted, and Keroro was abandoned. Now, this once proud soldier spends more time wielding a vacuum than he does the weapons of war. It's a far cry from the glory of battle, but hey, at least he's got his own room. And though the invasion may have slowed to a hop, Sergeant Frog still occasionally yearns to overcome his karaoke addiction and reassemble his troops.
