Tohryu Furuya, the voice of Mobile Suit Gundam protagonist Amuro Ray once noted that he perceives the franchise’s overarching theme as “Why do humans engage in war?” and according to Chief Director Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin Part III – Dawn’s Revolt will re-explore that theme as the four-part series heads towards its climax.
Last weekend, the first two parts of Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin were screened in London as part of Anime Limited’s “MCM Loves Anime” event.
