SK8 The Infinity was already released on blu-ray in Japan. But, it didn’t have any subtitles, which can be a problem for international fans. However, things are going to change. Indeed, Aniplex of America has announced a blu-ray release. Obviously, this is the news international fans have been waiting for! Furthermore, you will not have to wait too long to get it.The boxset will be released on June 14. And pre-orders are already open exclusively at RightStuf.
The boxset features the same arts by Michinori Chiba that were on the Japanese blu-rays. These arts are featured on the slipcase and the plastic case. There is also a booklet. It features some of the arts from the Design Works books.
SK8 the Infinity contains episodes 1-12 of the anime directed by Hiroko Utsumi and includes a special booklet.
“Skating with you is Infinity.”
Reki, a high school sophomore and skater, is addicted to “S,” a highly secret and dangerous downhill skateboarding race that takes place in an abandoned mine. The skaters are especially wild about the “beefs,” or heated battles that erupt in the races.
Reki takes Langa, a transfer student returning to Japan after studying abroad, to the mine where the races are held. Langa, who has no skateboarding experience, finds himself pulled into the world of “S”…
From skaters who play dirty to AI-controlled skaters and even backstabbers, the intense, unpredictable skate battles brimming with endless possibilities are about to begin!
This exciting coming-of-age story was created by an all-star team featuring Hiroko Utsumi (Director), Ichiro Ohkouchi (Series Composition/Screenplay), Michinori Chiba(Character Design), and Bones (Animation Production), so don’t miss it!
