Anime Limited License Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn for UK Blu-Ray Release
02/07/2020 Leave a comment
Anime Limited, otherwise known to many as All The Anime, have recently taken to social media to reveal that they have secured the UK home video distribution license to the OVA Film Series Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, a stand-a-lone seven-part film series that takes place in the Universal Century and after the events of the main Mobile Suit Gundam franchise (such as Gundam Z Gundam and ZZ Gundam).
Although Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn has never officially been rated and released on home video in the UK each film was individually released and made available globally through relevant websites using the Japanese materials. In this particular scenario all seven parts of the film were produced in Japanese and English cover variations while the on disc content remained the same, with English audio and subtitles being available for relevant content.
In recent times Madman Entertainment in Australia and RightStuf in North America licensed the collection for home video release, with Madman opting to produce a DVD and Rightstuf producing a Blu-Ray. As Anime Limited have been working with Rightstuf for all of the Gundam releases so far, and have previously released Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn OVA as a collection, then it is expected that Anime Limited will use the same disc masters as those used by RightStuf. Additional details for what Anime Limited plan to do with this UK Blu-Ray release has not yet been announced, but we suspect it will be similar to previous Gundam releases.
In the meantime those interested in Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn can watch the film collection on Netflix UK in both dubbed and subtitled formats.
