OVA "Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin II: Artesia of Sorrow", advance online preview!　SKY Perf! Exclusive project

An advance online preview of the OVA "Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin II: Artesia of Sorrows," which will begin showing in theaters on October 31, has been announced.

This is the second anime chapter of "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin," a manga work by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, the character designer and animation director of the first Gundam that began broadcasting in 1979, which has sold a total of 10 million copies. This time, the story focuses on what happened to Casbal and Artesia, who escaped to Earth with Zimba Ral, as well as the developments in Side 3, where the Zabi family's dominance has strengthened as the autonomous republic of Zeon. The film continues with Yoshikazu Yasuhiko as general director and character designer, Takashi Imanishi as director, Hajime Katoki as mechanical designer, and Hiroyuki Nishimura as chief animation director. Char's childhood (i.e., Casbal) was played by Mayumi Tanaka, and in this film, it is played by Shuichi Ikeda (role name: Edwau Mas). Newcomers Mirai Yashima is played by Ayumi Fujimura, Amuro Ray by Toru Furuya, and Char Aznable by Toshihiko Seki.
