Fathom Events has announced that it is teaming with Sunrise Inc. to bring the anime feature Mobile Suit Gundam NT (Narrative) to U.S. theaters with a new English-language dub for one night only this February.
The story begins in U.C. 0097, one year after the opening of “Laplace’s Box.” Despite the revelation of the Universal Century Charter that acknowledges the existence and rights of Newtypes, the framework of the world has not been greatly altered.
The conflict later dubbed the “Laplace Incident” is thought to have ended with the downfall of the Neo Zeon remnants known as the Sleeves. In its final battle, two full psycho-frame mobile suits displayed power beyond human understanding. The white unicorn and the black lion were sealed away to remove this danger from people’s consciousness, and they should now be completely forgotten.
However, the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 03, which disappeared two years earlier, is now about to show itself in the Earth Sphere once more. A golden phoenix… named “Phenex.”
The screening will take place on Tuesday, February 19th and tickets will go on sale from Friday, January 18th at the Fathom Events website and participating theater box offices.
