Now Viewing: air_gearTag type: Copyright エア・ギア エアギア A sports action manga and anime created by Oogure_Ito, who is also responsible for Tenjou_Tenge, and like said series, has a lot of over the top action and fanservice. It is his most popular and longest-running work, it ran from November 6, 2002 to May 28, 2012. It has been adapted into a 2006 anime TV series by Toei Animation. It was directed by Kamegaki Hajime with music by Naganuma Hideki (under the name skankfunk), Wall5 Project, and Sakamoto Masaki. In 2010, it was adapted again into an anime OVA by Satelight that features almost an entirely different staff and the characters are recast with different voice actors. It has also been adapted into musicals. It is set in a Japan where a new fad has been born, Air Treks, high-tech roller skates that allow their users to perform all sorts of amazing tricks and effectively fly, but the popularity of ATs also has its downsides, various gangs have organized themselves around them and the races/confrontations between AT gangs can get violent. In public, Minami Itsuki (Ikki or Crow) is the toughest teen in his district, often single-handedly helping his friends deal with various gangs. When he gets home, he becomes the servant of the Noyamono sisters: Noyamono Ringo, Noyamono Mikan, and Noyamono Shiraume. He is powerless against the three girls, but at the same time, they are also responsible for building Ikki's physical toughness due to their tendency to use physical punishments. Unfortunately, one day he happens to anger a gang member with connections to an AT gang, the Stormsaders, who in retaliation, humiliate Ikki and his friends, and destroy his 'tough' reputation. But things turn around once Ikki discovers that the Noyamonos are secretly members of their own AT gang, Sleeping Forest, and they decide to both help Ikki deal with the Stormsaders, and introduce him to ATs. Ikki becomes enamored with the skates and sets out to form his own gang with his friends, competing with other AT gangs, but as Ikki becomes more involved with the AT world, he finds himself dealing with much bigger and more dangerous conflicts. . .
