About K MISSING KINGS Based on the hit anime K, K MISSING KINGS picks up where the series left off. Featuring the same director and scriptwriter as the series, this movie brings the characters that you`ve grown to love in the same spirit of action, honor, and loyalty. K MISSING KINGS also sees the return of popular voice actors such as Daisuke Namikawa, Daisuke Ono, and Tomokazu Sugita, reprising their roles for the first time on the big screen. The story starts some time after the Island Academy Incident, in which four of the seven great Kings crossed paths. Since this time, silver clansmen Kuroh Yatogami and Neko have been searching for their master, Yashiro Isana, the Silver King. Their search having turned up fruitless, the two begin to give up hope, until they encounter Anna Kushina and Rikio Kamamoto, two members of the red clan HOMRA being chased by someone. About K Written by the collaborative group collectively known as "GoRa," K is the name for the original animation project that was broadcast in 2012 and quickly gained popularity worldwide. It tells the story of seven individuals known as "Kings," each ruling their own personal clan. Endowed with mysterious powers, these Kings lead their followers into battle against each other. This popular anime series was produced by GoHands, the studio behind hits such as MARDOCK SCRAMBLE, COPPELION, and SEITOKAI YAKUINDOMO. GoHands and GoRa will both be returning to direct, write, and produce K MISSING KINGS, the feature length film and brand new follow up to the series. In a world with a somewhat different history than our own, Yashiro Isana, known to his friends as Shiro, is a regular carefree high school student attending the island academy of Ashinaka High School. That is, until he is attacked one day by the members of HOMRA, a violent group of ruffians with strange powers, who mistake him for the murderer of one of their comrades. In addition to this, a lone youth by the name of Kuroh Yatogami is also convinced of Shiro`s guilt, telling him that he will put an end to his evil ways. Now, Shiro must prove his innocence or forfeit his life to those that are after him. Yet as clues surrounding the murder surface Shiro discovers that he may have some questions about his own role in the incident and his identity.
