"Mobile Suit Gundam 35th Anniversary Project" is here! A revolution toward a new stage and new challenges is here!
Three anniversary titles, a theme song, special events, and more announced!
Namco Bandai Holdings, Sotsu, and Sunrise have announced details of the "Mobile Suit Gundam 35th Anniversary Project",
Based around the theme "Rise! - The world is moving", the 35th Anniversary project looks ahead to the 40th Anniversary, seeking a new stage and new challenges.
The "Always Beginning" theme of 2009's Mobile Suit Gundam 30th Anniversary Project was embodied in the 18-meter, life-sized Gundam statue it brought forth, but the 35th Anniversary Project takes its form primarily in three new animation projects: the 7th episode of Mobile Suit Gundam UC, a new Gundam series by Director Yoshiyuki Tomino titled Gundam Reconguista in G, and an adaption of Yoshikazu Yasuhiko's hit Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin comic.
Gundam's fans will also be able to enjoy the "G35" theme created by prolific TV and radio theme producer Yasutaka Nakata, an unprecedented exhibition titled "The Art Of Gundam", and more.
Related goods and services are planned by many of the companies of the Namco Bandai Holdings group.
■ "Mobile Suit Gundam 35th Anniversary Project" key visuals released!
Today's key visuals feature the lead Gundams of Mobile Suit Gundam UC episode 7 (May 17th, 2014), Gundam Reconguista in G (Fall 2014), and Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin I: Aoi Hitomi no Casval (event screenings in Spring 2015).
Trailers for each show can also be seen in this article.
■ 35th Anniversary theme "G35" by Yasutaka Nakata of CAPSULE!
Music producer Yasutaka Nakata, born in the same year as Gundam, has never been involved in a Gundam project before—but this makes him a perfect choice to represent the potential for new perspectives that continues to thrive.
Just like the concept and key visuals, "G35" seeks to embody a mood of activity, and a look toward what the future brings.
You'll hear this track repeatedly over the coming months. Be sure to give it a good listen when you do!
Yasutaka Nakata (CAPSULE)
Made his record debut as a member of CAPSULE in 2001. Has since produced Perfume and Kyary Pamyu Pamyu, as well as being involved in the creation of TV and radio themes including the One Piece Film Z opening theme and the soundtrack to the series Liar Game.
As the first Japanese musician to officially remix Kylie Minogue, and a contributor to the Star Trek: Into Darkness soundtrack, he also boasts a broad global reach. His powerful, liberating sound has received accolades not just from other musicians, but from scenes as varied as fashion and film.
He's also a fixture at his own regular party, as well as musical fashion events worldwide.
