100 Meters (Hyakuemu), the upcoming film from On-Gaku: Our Sound director Kenji Iwaisawa, has just revealed its official poster, trailer and details of its theme song.
The theme song for the film is called “Rashisa,” and it’s performed by Official Hige Dandism. You can hear a preview of the song at about 40 seconds into the new trailer.
The film, which played at this year’s Annecy and comes out in Japan September 19, is based on the manga by Uoto (Orb: On the Movements of the Earth) and is about two track stars. It’s co-produced by Gkids, which is set to release the film in North America in October.
Aside from Iwaisawa, the film is made by:
Character designer/animation director: Keisuke Kojima (My Isekai Life)
Art director: Keikankun Yamaguchi
Music: Hiroaki Tsutsumi (Dr. Stone)
Screenplay: Yasuyuki Muto (Gundam Hathaway)

It stars Shota Sometani (Parasyte) as Komiya and Tori Matsuzaka (Library Wars) as Togashi, and is animated at Iwaisawa’s Rock’n Roll Mountain. Like On-Gaku, it’s animated using rotoscoping.
Here’s how Gkids describes the movie:
100 METERS follows Togashi, a track star who is born to run. As a kid, he is naturally gifted and wins every 100-meter race without effort. But in sixth grade, he meets Komiya, a transfer student who is full of determination but lacks technique. In teaching him, Togashi gives Komiya a new purpose: to win no matter what. Years pass by, and Togashi and Komiya meet again as rivals on the track and reveal their true selves.
