May 22, 2020May 28, 2021 Michael Lederhos

Today at their Virtual Momocon Panel, RightStuf and Nozomi Entertainment announced that they will be releasing Gundam Build Divers to Blu-Ray in North America! The 2018 anime series wasn’t previously announced by Nozomi like other Gundam series Blu-Rays so this is quite a surprise to fans. Also a surprise is to see Nozomi Entertainment producing this release as the series was streamed on Funimation Now. This had led to fan speculation that Funimation would release the Blu-Ray as they had done for Gundam: Iron Blood Orphans. The set will feature all 25 episodes, the Bang Zoom English Dub and a plethora of bonus features! Check out all the details…

Superman: Red Son Trailer

December 16, 2019December 16, 2019 Ben Odinson
