NEW SK8 PV!

We finally have new art!! They've released a new trailer with glimpses of the OVA!

(https://x.com/sk8_project/status/1855037591726559327)

They also gave us some descriptions of the stories! Here are my translations of them!

Rain and Cats, convenience store ice cream, soda flavored

One Sunday, Reki, Langa, and Miya were at the skate park, as usual, when they are caught in a sudden downpour. They take shelter at Reki's house, and end up playing karuta with deck they find there--!?

Someday we'll be able to become serious

We go back in time to when Sakurayashiki and Nanjo were high school students living in obscurity. They're still competing with each other as usual, but after a series of competitions, the conclusion they arrive at is...

Morning Routine

This is a story that reveals just a tiny bit of the mysterious daily life of Ainosuke and Kikuchi-- They each have their secret routines, when there's a crossover between the two, and then a certain someone appears.

Do your best Hiromi-chan!

By night, he is an anti-hero, Shadow. By day, he works hard at a flower shop. These are three short stories that capture the daily life of the precious and kind Hiromi.

COME. ON.

so in the recently released Free! fanbook, there's a huge character relationship chart showing the relationships between the 2343984 characters in this damn series.

Most of the arrows pointing from one character to another are solid and indicate, based on the color, how the first character views the other. Some of them have dotted lines connecting them, though, showing that they feel the same way about each other.

Haru and Rin both share a dotted line that says "Destined to swim together forever"
