Synopsis:
Foot Locker Films and ASICS present a new anime-inspired project starring Luka Sabbat as Sneaker Samurai, Princess Nokia as Kiku and YFN Lucci as the Ghost Samurai.
When the Sneaker Samurai has his coveted ASICS Gel Lytes stolen by the RIsing Sun Clan, he must go on a quest to seek revenge and his sneakers. Guided by a street smart girl named Kiku, they battle their way through the city and into the Forest of Lost Souls on their way to the mysterious Rising Sun Dojo.
