Comment:
◆Soichiro Hoshi
“I was finally able to see and experience SEED FREEDOM, which I had been waiting for for so many years, and it really shook me and all the fans to the point where I was preoccupied with FREEDOM for about half of 2024. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I was sad that the long-running screening had ended, but it was also refreshing, and I've rarely experienced such a sense of fulfillment.
But this fall! immediately! We can meet FREEDOM again at the theater! Even more special edition! !
Is it okay to still have this much fun in 2024?
Our “SEED FREEDOM” is far from over! ! ”


◆Rie Tanaka Thanks to everyone's support and thoughts, we have decided to screen the special edition of ``SEED FREEDOM''. congratulations! And thank you very much!
The movie to be screened this time will have over 500 updated cuts and an epilogue cut. Also, new entrant gifts will be distributed! From September 20th, the first round of special edition screening-only tickets will be distributed.
I'm really happy to have the opportunity to see ``SEED FREEDOM'' on the big screen again. I don't love because I need it, I need it because I love it! I hope you enjoy it to the fullest!


◆Director Mitsuo Fukuda Thanks to everyone's support and support, we have decided to screen the special edition of "Gundam SEED FREEDOM".
In the main story, which was released on January 26th, due to time constraints, there were some points where it was not possible to make cuts until each section was satisfactory, but this time, those cuts have been updated, and after the screening We made adjustments to various areas, including areas that felt uncomfortable. I think this can be called the complete version of "SEED FREEDOM".
Also, at the end of the ending, I wrote a short episode as an epilogue cut. Please enjoy them as well.

Please take this opportunity to watch the excitement and emotion in a new special edition at the theater.

STORY

In 75 C.E., the battle was still on.
With the death of Chairman Durandal, the Destiny Plan disappeared, but at the same time, the indicators that would stabilize the world after the end of the war were lost.
Independence movements occurred in various places, invasions by Blue Cosmos were repeated, and the people were in the midst of further war and anxiety.
In order to calm down the situation, a world peace monitoring organization, Compass, is established with Lacus as its first president, and Kira and the others intervene in battles in various places as members.
At that time, there was a request from the Foundation Kingdom, a country that gained independence from the Eurasian Federation. This request is for a compass to be dispatched to the Blue Cosmos headquarters.
Upon receiving the request, Kira and his friends head to the Foundation Kingdom with Lacus.
