September 24th, theaters will be showing the new Eureka Seven movie, which I mentioned here sometime ago. A few more details have been revealed on this movie, the biggest one being that it’s set in a sort of “alternate timeline” Same characters, but completely different plot, and having nothing to do with the series.

The story seems to follow Renton, though he’s now a young soldier as he seeks his childhood friend, Eureka. As the events unfold a new enemy appears, threatening to shatter their reunion. Appearances from other cast members are expected, screens have shown Domonic, Holland, and Talho, though their role in the story has yet to be established.

While the new setting may be concerning, I have all faith that this will be a great film. I’m a huge fan of the series, which features stellar character development, an outstanding soundtrack, and killer artwork. Following a simple and appealing love story, Eureka Seven explored the effects of conflict and dogmatic government on individuals, while carrying a strong, unpretentious green message.

So, I’ll definitely be there. If you want to be there, make sure to get your tickets for this one-night only event.
