MAY 13, 2025, (PORTLAND, OR) — A pencil, a wish, and four legendary heroes.
Mad Cave Studios‘ imprint Nakama Press, in proud partnership with Tatsunoko Production and HERO’S INC., is thrilled to unveil a first look at the English-language release of Infini-T Force Vol. 1, a universe-spanning manga that brings together some of the most iconic warriors in anime history.
First published in Japan in 2017 to celebrate Tatsunoko Production’s 55th anniversary, Infini-T Force unites Gatchaman, Tekkaman, Casshan, and Hurricane Polimar in a nonstop collision of timelines, tech, and tenacity. Written by Ukyou Kodachi (Boruto: Naruto Next Generations) and drawn by Tatsuma Ejiri (P2! -Let’s Play Pingpong!), this ten-volume epic begins its long-awaited English debut!
It all began when high school student Emi Kaido received a mysterious, wish-granting pencil. With her life on the line, Emi uses the pencil to call upon heroes for protection! Gatchaman! Tekkaman! Casshan! Polimar! These defenders of justice cross space and time to help Emi weave the greatest tale of all time!
“Infini-T Force Vol. 1: You read that right. One more Tatsunoko property under Mad Cave. By Proxy. This one will be just right for any layman to get into. Each hero has enough distinct personalities, even if they don’t seem to be very layered. Plus the viewpoint character has her own views, flaws, and interests. All without going into Easter Eggs or big deep dives into the lore of each franchise. Instead it focuses on delivering a good pace of presentation by staying in the moment.” —Gutternauts
With 256 pages of pulse-pounding action, mind-bending crossovers, and heartfelt character moments, this is the must-have release for fans of classic superhero sagas, Tatsunoko diehards, and new readers alike—this is the ultimate team-up event manga readers have waited for.
Infini-T Force Vol. 1 drops on June 3, 2025, and is now available for preorder wherever books and manga are sold—followed by Infini-T Force Vol. 2 (June 3), and Infini-T Force Vol. 3 (Aug. 5th).
As an imprint of Mad Cave Studios, Nakama Press champions global storytelling—introducing English-language readers to beloved titles and long-anticipated series through carefully crafted translations and authentic adaptations.
