It's an honor to be involved in such a fresh format, especially since I get to pilot a GUNDAM, something I’ve admired since I was young. I’m really looking forward to seeing how the story unfolds from my perspective. Comments from Atsumi Tanezaki (protagonist - female) I never imagined I’d have the chance to pilot a GUNDAM in this way, and it felt quite mysterious during the recording. I’m thrilled that this work, which allows people not just to see but to "experience" it, is finally reaching everyone and fulfilling the long-held dreams of many. I’m excited to think that it’s about to be in your hands! I hope you fully immerse yourself in the Universal Century…! Comments from Mariya Ise (Babia Lena): I’m Mariya Ise, and I will be playing BABIA LENA in the VR film Mobile Suit Gundam: Silver Phantom. This work offers a new kind of experience where you can actually control and immerse yourself in the film as a pilot, unlike traditional animation movies. The passionate spirit of Gundam remains unchanged, and I’m confident that it will move the hearts of the viewers. I hope you’re looking forward to it! A special program for the movie is set to stream on the official Gundam YouTube channel in late September. The program will review the story, characters, and mechs, and will also feature Shoko Nakagawa , who performs the theme song "ACROSS THE WORLD." Ryo Hirohashi , who is cast as HARO, will serve as the narrator. Additionally, exclusive interview footage will be revealed with key staff members, including Director Kenichi Suzuki , scriptwriter Ryoji Sekinishi , and composer Yoshiya Ikeda .
