GKIDS is bringing Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning- to Canadian theatres this month. The movie acts as an introductory compilation film for the upcoming television anime series of the same name. The newest entry in the Gundam franchise debuted in Japanese cinemas on January 17th.
Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX -Beginning- was directed by Kazuya Tsurumaki at Sunrise and Khara. The screenplay was written by Yoji Enokido and Hideaki Anno. The music was composed by Masayuki Hasuo and Yoshimasa Terui.
Amate Yuzuriha is a high-school student living peacefully in a space colony floating in outer space. When she meets a war refugee named Nyaan, Amate is drawn into the illegal mobile suit dueling sport known as Clan Battle.
Under the entry name “Machu,” she throws herself into fierce battle day after day, piloting the GQuuuuuuX. Then an unidentified Gundam mobile suit pursued by both the space force and the police appears before her, along with its pilot, a boy named Shuji.
The film will open on February 28th, with advanced IMAX showings two nights before. It will be screened in Japanese with English subtitles. To purchase tickets, click here: Cineplex (IMAX) / Landmark (IMAX). For additional IMAX information, click here.
