It has been announced at the Free! Starting Days event held on Sunday that the previously announced Free! anime will be two-part recap movies. Titled Free!: Timeless Medley, the first part Kizuna will recap the story about Haruka's trouble, while the second part Yakusoku will recap the story surrounding Rin's trouble. The movies will premiere on April 22 and July 1, respectively, and include new scenes. STYLE FIVE will perform the theme song titled "RISING FREE."

In addition, a special anime sequel titled Free!: Take Your Marks has also been announced for screening in Fall 2017. The story will take place during spring before the graduation and will consist of four stories.

The Free! series is based on the High☆Speed! novel series written by Kouji Ohji and illustrated by Futoshi Nishiya. It has received various anime adaptations by Kyoto Animation, with the latest one being the prequel movie High☆Speed!: Free! Starting Days, which premiered on December 5, 2015.

YAAAAAAY! PLESSE BE SEXY! I can't wait. Kyoto want money so badly, but they deserve it.

Edit:- Oh wait, they said there is a new project for free! so it will be only 2 movie or more to announced later? I thought we will get 3rd season.

Edit 2:-"It has been announced at another Free! Starting Days event held on Sunday that previously announced new Free! anime will be two-part RECAP movie"

WTF IS THIS SHIT?? I DONT WANT TO WATCH IT. FUCK YOU KYOANI!!

Edit 3:- "A special sequel anime titled Free!: Take Your Marks has also announced to screen for Fall 2017. It will take place during the Spring before the graduation and will have four stories"
Okay then, If this is available then I will wait.

I was so disappointed to see the ''recap'' word because I thought that the movies will be something new , but then I noticed the ''sequel anime titled Free!: Take Your Marks has also announced to screen for Fall 2017'' and I got so excited! More Free!!!!

I was so excited when I saw the trailer on my YouTube feed LOL But I come here to read the news, so it's two recap films and 4 specials? Well I'll take it either way xD Looks like the two from Starting Days will make an appearance, wondered if we'd see them older, wonder how it'll all turn out.

Bitch it's just recap movies and here I thought I'd see an OVA of their lives in college and how Nagisa, Rei and Gou are coping up in highschool. At least a sequel is actually confirmed but it's just four specials. Better than nothing I guess. Gotta know more of their lives!

Super excited! The recap movies will feature new scenes and Take Your Mark film will feature four stories taking place before graduation.

I'm assuming the four stories will focus on each of the third-years (Haru, Rin, Makoto and Sousuke).

And with Haru and Rin in the center of the key visual, I think the new sequel movie will focus on them the most (since both of them will be heading for the same dream).

Looks like my prediction is to be going truth.,.. now in future, there will be lesser TV show than Movie, and there will be more Movie production than Tv show.

Anyway! this reminds of watching free! show.

So is Take Your Marks going to be a sequel TV series or a sequel movie? Crunchyroll says it will be a movie but here it seems like it could be an ova series or a 12 episode series...

You know, I expected a direct sequel to starting days to see whatever happen to those peeps, the new scenes looks to me like it'll just show them observing from afar;;
and the 3 movie looks like its gonna be THE SADDEST THING, the spring RIGHT before graduation??? really?? wasn't S2 sad enough?? I wanna see them move on not go back >A<

tho of course im still just as excited as everyone else, im a sucker for free haha
