posted on by Jennifer Sherman
The official website of the Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans anime announced on Friday that TRUE (Buddy Complex, Maria the Virgin Witch) will perform the next ending theme song "Steel -Tekketsu no Kizuna-" (Steel: Iron-Blooded Bonds). The song will debut in the anime's 14th episode next year, and the single CD will go on sale in Japan on February 24.
MAN WITH A MISSION is performing the current opening theme song "Raise your flag," and Misia is performing the current closing theme "Orphans no Namida."
The television anime series premiered in Japan on October 4, and Daisuki, Gundam.info, and Hulu are streaming the series as it airs. Crunchyroll and Funimation are streaming new episodes one week after they air.
Sunrise is producing an English dub with Bang Zoom! Entertainment, and plans to release it in early 2016. The Gundam Global Portal Facebook page announced on Thursday that Cherami Leigh will play Kudelia. Kyle McCarley will play Mikazuki, and Johnny Yong Bosch will play Orga Itsuka.
Tatsuyuki Nagai is helming the show at Sunrise, with Mari Okada handling series composition. Yū Itō (Shut Hell, Imperial Guards) drew the original character designs, while Michinori Chiba designed the characters for animation (Mobile Suit Gundam 00, Mobile Suit Gundam AGE). Naohiro Washio, Kanetake Ebikawa, Ippei Gyōbu, Kenji Teraoka, and Tamotsu Shinohara are designing the mechas for the show. Kusanagi is in charge of art design, and Masaru Yokoyama is composing the music.
