GRIMES, IA, March 17, 2018 — Anime distributor Right Stuf, Inc. and anime producer Nozomi Entertainment announced new upcoming releases during their panel at Naka-Kon 2018 in Overland Park, KS.

RIGHT STUF EXCLUSIVES
Mobile Suit Gundam 00
Right Stuf, Inc. and Sunrise Inc. are excited to announce that a Mobile Suit Gundam 00 10th Anniversary Ultra Edition Collection will be available in the coming months and will include all 50 episodes plus the Special Edition OVAs, and the movie Mobile Suit Gundam 00: A Wakening of the Trailblazer.

About Mobile Suit Gundam 00
The year is 2307 A.D. While the Earth’s reserves of fossil fuels have been depleted, humanity has obtained a new, nearly infinite source of energy to replace them in the form of large-scale solar-powered generation systems based on three huge orbital elevators. However, the benefits of this system are available only to a handful of major powers and their allies. These orbital elevators belong to three superpower blocs: the Union, the Human Reform League and the AEU. These confederations continue to play a grand zero-sum game for the sake of their own prestige and prosperity. Thus, even in the 24th Century, humanity has yet to unite as one. In this world of unceasing conflict, a private armed organization steps forward, declaring their intention to eliminate war through martial force. Using the power of their mobile suits combatively, a series of four high-performance machines each dubbed “Gundam,” the paramilitary organization known as Celestial Being takes the world stage beginning armed interventions within all the world’s nations.
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 will be released on Blu-ray and DVD in the coming months featuring English and Japanese audio with English subtitles.
