Sunrise has unveiled new details about the upcoming Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch From Mercury, the new upcoming Gundam anime releasing this October.
Not much is known about Gundam: The Witch From Mercury- all they’ve released is a teaser showing the new protagonist and the main mobile suit, the Gundam Aeria as well as a key visual for the anime.
Naturally, they also announced the merchandising for the anime project- Gundam Aerial will be getting its own model kit, and characters from the series will also get figures from other brands such as Banpresto, though the scope of merchandise hasn’t been revealed yet.
The anime will release October of this year, but a Prologue animation will also be released ahead of the anime’s weekly release, which will feature two more mobile suits as well.
These are the Gundam Lfrith as well as the Beguir Beou, and both mobile suits will be getting model kits as well, though no release date has been given for the new model kits.
It joins this year’s line-up of Gundam animation projects, such as a theatrical release for Gundam SEED, the rebroadcast of Iron-Blooded Orphans as well as the upcoming movie Cucuruz Doan’s Island which will all be releasing this year.
