The next expansion in the Gundam Build Fighters and the Try franchise got underway last spring with the multi-cour project called Gundam Build Divers. The show is now getting some new distribution with the Gundam.Info site now streaming the dubbed version of the series, which you can see the playlist for below. The regional availability of it is pretty varied and detailed so I’ll recommend checking out the breakdown of what’s allowed and not here.
Shinya Watada is directing it based on the series composition by Noboru Kimura. Kazuhiro Hara did the original character designs with Juri Today adapting them. Check out the promo below as well as the hour-long press conference in full.
The Japanese cast includes Yuusuke Kobayashi as Riku Mikami, Natsumi Fujiwara as Yukio Hidaka, Nene Hieda as Momo, Haruka Terui as Sarah, Jun Kasama as Kyouya Kujou, and Show Hayami as Ronman.
Plot Concept: Gunpla Battle Nexus Online (GBN) is a new network game that lets people enjoy a variety of missions using Gunpla in a virtual cyberspace dimension. Middle-school students Riku Mikami and Yukio Hidaka recruit their classmate Momoka Yashiro and dive together into this vast world. Becoming “Divers,” or inhabitants of GBN, they meet a mysterious girl named Sarah who has an amazing sensitivity to Gunpla. They begin playing alongside her, but… Through many encounters and experiences, Riku and his friends will build not only Gunpla, but their own adventures as well!
