The spring 2018 anime series Inazuma Eleven: Ares no Tenbin is getting its home video releases handled by Kadokawa and they previously scheduled just the first set. With the first set coming up in a couple of weeks we finally have our first look at the packaging for it that definitely looks good. The show has a box set now scheduled for November 28th, 2018 where it’ll have the first ten episodes and will be priced at 9,800 yen on DVD and 11,000 yen on Blu-ray.
The series has Akihiro Hino and Yumi Kamakura as the chief directors with Hino working on the series composition. The character designs are based on what Takuzo Nagano created and animation production was handled by OLM Digital.
The Japanese cast includes Ayumu Murase as Asuto Inamori, Hiroshi Kamiya as Ryōhei Haizaki, Jun Fukuyama as Yūma Nosaka, Ai Kayano as Norika Umihara, Haruka Tomatsu as Hanta Hattori, Kenta Miyake as Takashi Iwato, Natsuki Hanae as Hiro Okuiri, Ryohei Kimura as Tatsumi Michinari, Shunsuke Takeuchi as Tetsunosuke Gōjin, Sōma Saitō as Kirina Hiura, Takahiro Sakurai as Yūichirō Mansaku, Yuka Terasaki as Masakatsu Hiyori, and Yuuki Kaji as Sasuke Kozōmaru.
Plot Concept: Asuto Inamori’s soccer club is disbanded after the school’s soccer field is destroyed. He and friends go to Tokyo to attend Daimon-chuu (Daimon Junior High) to play soccer. The story is set after the first Inazuma Eleven anime and game. However, the show will take place in a parallel world from all other Inazuma Eleven soccer role-playing games (apart from the first), because the story has taken a different course.
