The Goldorak series will soon make its big comeback to our screens and we now have a first trailer to watch. And obviously the community is divided.
Last August we received some pretty amazing news. Grendizer is back in a brand new animated series. And that doesn’t make us any younger, after all, the film was first broadcast in Japan in 1975. However, we haven’t had a trailer to enjoy yet. But that has only just changed and is unfortunately already controversial.
A first trailer for the new Grendizer series
This year the AkibaDaisuki Festival in Tokyo gave us a great gift. Who would have thought that after all this time, Grendizer would rise from the dead? So yes, a new video game has actually been released, but here we are talking about the animated series. This is titled Goldorak U, and we can say that she was quite discreet after her announcement. Luckily, we finally have a trailer to get our teeth into. On the other hand, it divides the community, especially when it comes to character design. Some people already seem to miss the aesthetics of the time.
For now, we can expect quality when we see who is in charge. As a reminder, behind this project is Mr. Go Nagai, the creator of the work, but also the director, Mr. Mitsuo Fukuda, better known for his work Mobile suit Gundam SEED. But that’s not all, because we also have Mr. Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, the character designer, who worked on it Neon Genesis Evangelion et Summer Wars. The music was composed by Mr. Kohei Tanaka, who notably worked on One Piece.
Yes, it’s pretty impressive and promises to be a great Grendizer anime. Dr. Essam Bukhary, CEO of Manga Productions, made no secret of his excitement at the announcement.
The return of the popular Grendizer series is exciting news for fans of anime series around the world. We are proud to distribute this series, which has a rich history and an incredible fan base. Working closely with Dynamic Planning, we want to introduce Goldorak U to both long-time fans and the new generation of viewers.
Casting is revealed
This trailer will undoubtedly appeal to early fans who won’t miss any detail. What we can particularly see are the members of the cast. Ayane Sakura (Attack of the Titans) will therefore play Naida Baron, Yuuma Uchida (Blue Lock) will play Cassado Zeola Whiter, and that’s not all. For his part, Takehito Koyasu (Jujutsu Kaisen) will take on the mantle of Gandal and Akeno Watanabe (My Hero Academia) that of Lady Gandal. Finally we have Wataru Takagi (Beelzebub, Naruto Shippuden) as Blacky and Tomokazu Seki (One piece) in that of Zurill. And that’s just part of her well-filled resume. We are clearly facing a five-star line-up.
