Hathaway’s Flash first debuted as a series of light novels in 1989, written by Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino whcih continued the story of the original series via a brand new protagonist who seemed to encapsulate the essence of the first series’ hero and villain, aka Amuro and Char. While we don’t know how faithful the new movie will be in terms of adapting its source material, it’s clear that Sunrise is giving the original story an amazing coat of paint with its modern animation style.
The Official Twitter Account for Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway’s Flash released the new trailer that gives us a better look into the world that continues the original universe, with the spiritual successor to both Amuro and Char taking up the reins as an anti-hero that is looking to change the world:
