Sony-owned anime distributor Crunchyroll is now streaming the recent hit anime film, Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan’s Island, on their service. The movie is streaming with both Japanese and English dubbed audio.
Crunchyroll describes the story as:
After a covert mission goes wrong, Mobile Suit pilot Amuro Ray and his comrades are stranded on a remote island. The battalion was sent to a land called the Island of No Return to clear off any enemy forces, only to find a group of children and an enemy mecha attack. Now Amuro must find a way for them all to escape this mysterious land, but not before meeting a strange man—Cucuruz Doan.
Cucuruz Doan’s Island is directed by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, the character designer and chief animation director of the original 1979 Mobile Suit Gundam series, as well as chief director of the 2015-2018 Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin series. The film is a remake and new perspective on the fifteenth episode of the same name from the original series. Since its theatrical release on June 3, 2022, the film has grossed 1.08 billion yen with 550,000 attendees.
In September 2022, Crunchyroll announced a limited international screening from September to October 2022.
