Bandai acquired the distribution of the Mobile Suit Gundam: Awakening of the Trailblazer motion picture and it plans to re-release the original 1979 Mobile Suit Gundam television series in a bilingual edition; and plans for a domestic DVD release of the Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn OVA series.
This means that the movie will finally be released in America and the series will be in its original Japanese with English subtitles for the first time.
This is an original anime written and developed by Yoshiyuki Tomino in 1979, based on the Starship Troopers books. Given that its story differed too much from other more successful super robots series it had little aceptation between Japanese audiences and had to be canceled. However, it stayed as a cult classic that has had its reinvindication on this decade.
