Free! Take Your Marks Anime Film's English-Subtitled Teaser Video Previews 1st Story

posted on by April
Funimation releases film in U.S. for one-day screening on March 14

Funimation began streaming a teaser video on Wednesday for the Free! -Take Your Marks- anime film's upcoming U.S. theatrical release on March 14. The teaser features characters Haru Nanase and Makoto Tachibana looking for an apartment, one of the four stories featured in the film.

The official Japanese website for the film describes the first of the film's four stories:

Story #1 Unmei no Choice! (Fateful Choice!): Haruka visits Tokyo to look for a place to live for when he starts his college life there next month. Coach Sasabe recommended a real estate agent to Haruka, but when he arrives at the agent's office, he meets an unexpected character.

The film opened in Japan in October 2017.

The film is a sequel to the Free! -Timeless Medley- compilation films. The story takes place in March, with Haruka dealing with graduation from high school. The film depicts four stories set in the days of early spring, before the characters advance to the next starting blocks of their futures, and what lies ahead. The other three stories in the film highlight the Samezuka team, the second-years of the Iwatobi team, and Rin's goodbye party before he goes to Australia.

Funimation began selling tickets on Tuesday for the movie.

The Free! franchise is inspiring a new television anime series this summer, as well as an "Episode 0" event screening that will screen in Japan on June 23.
