Key visual looks good imo. It's been almost three years since Majestice Prince aired but somehow, I'm still excited bout the film. Hope it will be good.

Yeah, but realistically we only get like one good show about that every 5 years
MJP was darn solid. Great action, entertaining characters, nothing groundbreaking but I can't say that it was a bad show at all for anyone who went in expecting exactly what it delivered.

I can't say as Majestic Prince blew me away, exactly, but it was perfectly entertaining (and VERY good looking!)

My hope is that somebod will license this for the West. I'd be more than willing to pick it up just for the sake of completeness.

One thing, though - this practice of supplying an extra episode to link to the next project (which Steins;Gate also did) is kind of a wrinkle. If this does eventually come to the West, I'd hope that new 25th episode can come with it. Not sure how tricky that would be to clear with the Licensor.

Any continuation of the "ok, now what?!" ending is fine by me. I like the cast, the designs, the animation, the story, the complete package really but I'm still wondering under what kind of circumstances the MJP force will have to contend with.

Barring the enemy from the main series suddenly developing FTL engines, it'll take a while for them to make it to Earth from the nearest Gate. Or that's how I understand the situation. So as much as I'd like to see the final battle, I like the fact that the creators skipped past all the problems FTL plot devices add to interstellar conflcts... solar battles,. Ok, star wars. Happy?

Continuing on from a previous MJP movie thread:

MJP: Unleash the Dogs of Star Wars
I Am MJP And You Can Too!
MJP The Animation Motion Picture Movie Anime Film
MJP [This space for lease]
MJP: The Battle of the Planets Between the Stars
MJP: The Planet That Went Ape... ok, that was Mad magazine.
MJP: On the Wings of Gabriel

They played my theme. I'm hyped even more now.

"Uchū ni Saku Hana" (A Flower That Blooms in Space)," "Kugimiya Kei no Yūutsu" (The Melancholy of Kei Kugimiya)"

LMAO Reference too stronk.

I was a big fan when this was airing. Love the throw-back character designs and the story was plenty entertaining. Excited we're going to get a little more MJP action!

its kinda sad some people didn't get the Super Sentai homage & joke which is the trait of this series, i mean some of the seiyuu of the main cast are even Sentai actors!! Laughing

I didn't manage to get a ticket to the event, but did manage to catch Chiaki Ishikawa live on Sunday night, and from Majestic Prince she sang "Respect Me" and a self-cover of OP1 "私は想像する / I remember".

I haven't heard anything about whether she will be contributing music to the movie project.

Cool show and Sentai did a great job with the dub, looking forward to the movie.
