Gunbuster vs. Diebuster licensed for US release

According to the Anime News Network, Bandai Visual USA have acquired “Gunbuster vs. Diebuster”, a new movie which splices together GAINAX’s famous sci-fi drama Gunbuster (directed by Evangelion’s Hideki Anno) with it’s 2004 sequel, Diebuster (directed by FLCL’s Kazuya Tsurumaki).

In the past, several of Bandai Visual USA’s anime have made it over to the UK – most recently, the two Patlabor movies, so hopes will be high that “Gunbuster vs. Diebuster” can eventually see a UK release too.
