Fairy Tail Movie's Clip Previews English Dub

North American anime distributor Funimation began streaming a English-dubbed clip for Fairy Tail the Movie: Phoenix Priestess on Tuesday.

Funimation describes the story:

Follow Fairy Tail's dream team - Natsu, Gray, Erza, Lucy, Wendy, Happy, and Carla - as they lend a helping hand to a girl with little memory and a grudge against wizards. As they uncover clues about her mysterious past, a lunatic prince hatches a half-baked plan to sacrifice her in exchange for immortality. When the fool unleashes an ancient force, a raging war becomes the fiercest inferno Fairy Tail has ever faced. Can the guild with a heart of gold save the planet from a fiery finish?

Original manga creator Hiro Mashima was in charge of story planning and visual design for the film's all-new plot, and he also drafted the guest character designs and image concept art.

The English dub premiered at Denver's Nan Desu Kan convention in September. The voice actors for the guest characters are:

• Éclair – Jessica Calvello
• Momon – Tiffany Grant
• Cream – Scott Zenreich
• Pantherlily - Rick Keeling

The film opened in Japan last year, and Funimation will release the film in a Blu-ray Disc+DVD Combo Pack on December 10. The pack will include the Fairy Tail the Movie Prologue: "The First Morning" anime, trailers, and "clean" creditless opening and ending sequences.
