Looking for an anime or manga about someone on self-improvement. Could be a monk pursuing enlightenment, or could be a degen trying to better himself.

Anything about someone trying to improve themselves.

Thank you for your time!

    There’s the famous One Punch Man workout

    Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru?/How Many Kilos are the Dumbbells You Lift? is kind of about getting into better physical shape.

    Yama No Susume/Encouragement of Climb is a CGDCT series, about the characters’ growth as they get better at hiking and tackle more challenging mountains. Also great because of portraying real-life Japanese hiking locations. Start with the 2nd season because it’s in a more traditional 30 minute episode format.

      I’ve added Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru? to my PTW. It was actually Masamune-kun’s workout-addict personality (Masamune-kun no revenge) that made me start working out myself, so I’m somewhat interested in watching another anime with characters who work out.

      I hadn’t heard of Yama No Susume, I’ll go read about it.

      Thank you for the recommendations.
