Our first lap through HIGHSPEED Étoile is complete, and the original anime’s opening theme song title perfectly encaptures its vibes: “ADRENALIZED”, which is performed by Nana Mizuki (Tomodachi Game OP). A creditless version of the sequence is now available to watch below, while the series’ first episode is currently streaming on Crunchyroll.
Featuring original character designs by Takuya Fujima (Warlords of Sigrdrifa), HIGHSPEED Étoile is directed by Keitaro Motonaga (Date A Live, Katanagatari) at studio A-CAT and stars Fuka Izumi, Yoko Hikasa, Yoko Hikasa, Shiori Izawa, Yui Horie and Ayaka Suwa.
Crunchyroll is simulcasting the series and describes the story:

Now, she faces a new adrenaline-fueled reality in the NEX Race, a revolutionary motorsport event exceeding speeds of 500 km/h.
