If you’re new to the world of Gundam, Yoshiyuki Tomino’s Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack probably isn’t the best entry point. The 1988 anime film, which is also the first original theatrical outing for the popular mecha franchise, plunges headfirst into an ongoing intergalactic conflict that escalates into a genocidal war. But with a special double feature of Char’s Counterattack and The Sorcery of Nymph Circe(the second film in the Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway trilogy) screening at select theaters in Japan for a limited time later this month, there’s never been a better time to experience (or revisit) this beloved Gundam film.
