It has been announced that “Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway’s Flash: Circe’s Witch” is the latest work in the “Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway’s Flash ” series.
“Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway’s Flash” is a film adaptation of a novel by series creator Yoshiyuki Tomino, which was released in theaters in June 2021 and closely follows the worldview of “Mobile Suit Gundam Char’s Counterattack,” depicting the final battle between Amuro and Char.
The film depicts the new battle challenged by the anti-Earth Federation government movement “Mufty” on the vertical axis and the intersecting destinies of its leader, Hathaway Noah, the mysterious and beautiful girl Gigi Andalusia, and Federal Army Colonel Kenneth Sleg on the horizontal axis. The film was a huge hit, grossing 2.23 billion yen, thanks to its overwhelmingly beautiful images, heart-wrenching human drama centered around the main character Hathaway, and realistic portrayal.
The long-awaited latest film in the series, Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway’s Flash: The Witch of Circe, is also expected to be a film made with great effort by the main cast, including Kensho Ono, who voices the main character Hathaway Noah, and the talented staff, including director Shukou Murase.
