About the Hit Film Series

The Kidou Senshi Gundam: Senkou no Hathaway film series made a huge impact when its first chapter hit theaters in June 2021. It captivated audiences with its hard-hitting, realistic combat scenes and the delicate dialogue and psychological depth of its characters. The latest installment, Kidou Senshi Gundam: Senkou no Hathaway – Kirke no Majo, is currently showing on 431 screens nationwide (including IMAX) since January 30, 2026. The film is already a massive success, surpassing 1 billion yen in box office revenue and 600,000 admissions in just its first five days.

MS-Inspired Design & Exclusive Voice Guidance

Onkyo’s premium “AOW01 MARK II” earbuds get a radical makeover with this collaboration. The two models are packed with details inspired by their respective mobile suits. The charging case features motifs based on the mobile suits themselves, while the left and right housing plates are designed with elements recalling a pilot’s helmet and funnels.
