Japanese Entertainment

"Mobile Suit Gundam" has launched its first official fan club in Japan and a smartphone app named "Gundam Fan Club" is distributed via App Store and Google Play from October 1.



Members are able to watch the brand new series "Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans", which begins airing on October 4, as well as 18 other previous series. Film and OVA installments will also be accessible for a limited period. In addition, special bonus videos and live broadcasts will be available exclusively to the fan club members.



Members can contribute by commenting on images and videos received via the app, and will also be able to communicate with other fans. The app also provides a service in which members will periodically receive legacy Gundam figurine photos and event photos to add to their collection.



Furthermore, in addition to VIP treatment at events, presales, and limited rewards, the app will also contain a "digital membership card" which can be presented at facilities like Gundam Cafe in exchange for special privileges. Beginning at noon on October 1, and limited to the first 200 people, members are able to purchase tickets for the "Mobile Suit Gundam The Origin II Red Determination: Artesia's Sorrow Premiere Screening" at Toyosu PIT in Tokyo on October 17.



The membership fee is 600 yen per month. During first 7 days, you can use free of charge. Of those who register during the month of October, 100 people will have a chance to win the tickets for "Artesia's Sorrow", and 1900 people have a chance to win the rights for viewing the film in the apps.
