posted on by Egan Loo
Sequel to Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha The MOVIE 1st to open on July 14

The official website for Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha the Movie 2nd A's, the second film in the Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha franchise, began streaming a special promotional video on Wednesday. The video debuted at this year's Anime Contents Expo.

(To turn off the scrolling comments, select the word balloon icon on the bottom right corner of the video.)

The movie will be a sequel to Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha The MOVIE 1st, which opened in 2010. That film was a retelling of the first series, and creator Masaki Tsuzuki emphasized that it was a "new parallel history." In the second film, the magical girl Nanoha (Yukari Tamura) has a long-awaited reunion, but soon after, she encounters a new peril.

The second film will open in Japan on July 14.

In the first round of advance sales, each ticket can be bought with one of three different A2-sized clear posters (Nanoha, Fate, or Hayate) drawn by character designer Yasuhiro Okuda at Animate stores, or with one of three other A2-clear posters (also of Nanoha, Fate, or Hayate) illustrated by Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid manga artist Takuya Fujima at Gamers! stores.

Starting on March 17 at the theaters, people can buy a ticket that is attached to an A3-size metallic poster with printed signatures of voice actresses Tamura and Nana Mizuki (Fate Testarossa). On May 12, theaters will begin selling tickets that are attached to an A3-size metallic poster with a printed signature from Hayate Yagami voice actress Kana Ueda. In June, the theaters will begin selling tickets on an A3-size metallic poster with printed signature from Kaori Shimizu (Signum), Asami Sanada (Vita), Ryōka Yuzuki (Shamal), and Kazuya Ichijou (Zafira).

The Circle-K and Sankus convenience stores will offer each tickets with one of two different Nendoroid Petit charm sets starting on March 22. In May, Gamers! will offer each ticket with a booklet of drawings created by popular illustrators in support of the film. Then in June, Gamers! will sell a ticket with one of three sound-emanating Speacot mascot figures (Nanoha, Fate, or Hayate).
