Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt

Following on from our previous schemes to order the Japanese Blu-ray Collector’s Edition of Gundam The Origin, today we are happy to announce we are now taking pre-orders for the hotly anticipated Japanese Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt: December Sky Blu-ray [Collector’s Edition, Export Edition].

Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt combines 4 episodes that were recently streamed in Japan into a single movie with additional scenes added.

As was the case before, this pre-order scheme in conjunction with Bandai Visual allows UK fans to pre-order this upcoming release knowing that it will be sent from our offices here in the UK (once stock arrives – expected July 2016.) Though please note this is a Japanese product. The main feature itself has both English and Japanese language audio and will have English subtitles, but any additional features on the disc itself and/or the physical items included in the package itself will be in Japanese only.

We (Anime Limited) are now taking pre-orders for Mobile Suit Gundam Thunderbolt: December Sky for the UK, Ireland and Scandinavian customers through our AllTheAnime.com web shop. The deadline to pre-order this by is 11:59pm on Sunday 22nd May 2016. Click on the link below for more details about this product.

Synopsis: It is Universal Century 0079, at the end of the One Year War between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon.

The space colonies of Side 4, or Moore, were previously destroyed by a Zeon attack, and many colonists lost their lives. Side 4 became a shoal zone filled with the wreckage of destroyed colonies and warships, lit by constant flashes of lightning due to collisions between electrified debris. It soon came to be known as the “Thunderbolt Sector.”

The Moore Brotherhood, an Earth Federation Forces unit made up of surviving citizens from Moore, set out to exterminate the Zeon forces in the Thunderbolt Sector in order to reclaim their homeland. To halt the Federation advance, the Zeon forces deployed their own Living Dead Division, which was established to collect combat data on soldiers with prosthetic limbs.

Io Fleming, though part of the Moore Brotherhood, hates being tied down by his homeland and family history. Daryl Lorenz, having lost his legs in earlier battles, is now an ace sniper of the Living Dead Division. When they confront each other on the battlefield, they will reach a mutual realization. These two are destined to kill each other.

You can watch a preview for this (Japanese only at the moment) below.
