HOUSTON, TX — May 18, 2019 — Sentai Filmworks announced today that it has acquired the rights to Utano☆Princesama Maji LOVE Kingdom, the first feature film for the wildly popular Utano☆Princesama franchise. The film will have its US premiere on Friday, July 5 at 1:00 p.m. at Anime Expo 2019, with a limited theatrical release to follow.
