With the theatrical release of Yoshiyuki Tomino’s final Gundam Reconguista in G film, V: Beyond the Peril of Death, an official music video for Daisuke Hasegawa’s “Flash of G” has been released. The song is performed by Daisuke Hasegawa, written by Rin Iogi(Tomino’s psuedonym for songwriting), and composed by Yugo Kanno. “Flash of G” or “G no Senkou” was featured as the ending theme song for the 2014 Gundam Reconguista in G TV anime and the first installment of the Reconguista in G film series, Go! Core Fighter in 2019.
Near the end of July, a new ending theme for IV: Love That Cries Out in Battle and V: Beyond the Peril of Death was released, along with another music video. This tune energetically follows in the footsteps of the aforementioned “Flash of G” and similarly reassembled the team of Hasegawa, Rin Iogi and Kanno for its production.
The song is available for digital purchase on various music services such as: Apple Music, Amazon Music Unlimited, Spotify, LINE MUSIC, YouTube Music, TOWER RECORDS MUSIC and KKBOX.

Story
The new era begins!
The turbulent era known as the Universal Century has ended. Now, mankind looks towards prosperity and peace in the new era known as the Regild Century (R.C.). One of the most important resources in this era is the Capital Tower – a space elevator which towers over the land connecting Earth to space. Its purpose, to transport the Photon Batteries the Earth relies on for power. It is worshiped as a holy place.
Tasked with protecting the tower, one day on a practice mission, young Capital Guard cadet, Bellri Zenam is attacked by a high-performance G-Self Mobile Suit. Despite having never before encountered the G-Self, he feels a strange connection to it and its pilot, a space pirate called Aida Surugan.
Little does Bellri know that he is about to uncover truths which will shake the entire Regild Century.
