Right Stuf, Inc. and anime producer Sunrise are announcing their plans for the next piece of the sprawling Gundam franchise in North America as they keep the properties flowing with Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam. The first half of this series is getting a separate DVD and Blu-ray release on March 1st, 2016. The DVD is priced at $59.99 and the Blu-ray at $74.99 for the bilingual production that uses the previously created dub for the Bandai Entertainment releases.
For the Blu-ray, the audio tracks will use the PCM format and will be using the recently remastered version in Japan as an HD native release. It’ll be spread across three discs in this set.
Extras for this set include the first two clean opening sequences.
Plot concept: The Earth Federation Stands victorious, but are they still on the right side?
In Zeta Gundam, we see the future world of the Universal Century through a dark mirror. Having defeated the Zeon menace, the Earth Federation has itself become cruel and oppressive. A new generation of Gundam mobile suits is created not to fight for peace, but to punish the enemies of the state, and yesterday’s villains must become today’s heroes in order to balance the scales of justice. When a young civilian named Kamille Bidan is caught up in the rebellion, he little suspects the price he will pay in the fight for freedom.
Contains Episodes 1-25
