FUNimation has put out a new trailer for Eureka 7: AO today with the main cast listed as well, since there’s been some minor controversy over who is playing who based on some credit listings. Interestingly, while the show was just announced for an August release, the trailer and the FUNimation blog page about it says that the show is ste for release on October 15, 2013. While the trailer does say October 15th for release, it appears that’s for the second part and the first part is still on track for its August release date.

Plot concept: The electrifying successor to the mecha epic Eureka Seven propels you through intense, eye-popping action in the sky, sea, and space one battle at a time.
The year is 2025. Earth is engulfed in the crossfire between massive warring alien life forms that leave annihilation in their wake. While searching for clues about his past, Ao is caught in an attack and forced to fly a giant humanoid fighter craft to save himself and his island. Fragments of the teenager’s origin come to light when a hostile shape-shifter seeking revenge on Ao’s missing mother—who vanished two years after his birth—targets him instead. Consumed with learning how his machine of war is connected to his mother and the monster that now pursues him, the young pilot will fly full throttle into combat zones without hesitation.
