Odex to Open Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya: Sekka no Chikai Film in Southeast Asia

Southeast Asian film distributor Odex announced on Sunday that it will open Gekijōban Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya: Sekka no Chikai (Movie Version Fate/kaleid liner Prisma ☆ Illya: Oath Under the Snow), the upcoming anime film in the Prisma Illya franchise, in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Vietnam. It did not reveal opening dates for the film.

The film opens in Japan on August 26.

A previous promotional video described the film's story:

"I think I'm going to tell you about me and Miyu's story up to now."

The world's destruction progresses. The only thing that can stop it is Miyu's sacrifice that is worthy of the Grail. When Ainsworth asks Illya, the one who carries the title of the world's savior, what she will save between the world and Miyu, she chooses the simple and selfish answer of "both." In a respite from the fighting, they all rest in the house Miyu and Shirō took care of. When they gather in a circle, Shirō tells them about himself and Miyu. She was the Child of God that granted any and all wishes. Shirō took in the girl who had no one else into the household that he had shared with Kiritsugu. It has been five years since then, and now they have lived peacefully like siblings. But that peaceful everyday life has now been shattered. They will take her back, but before that, Julian makes his appearance, still seeking in Miyu the miracle that he needs.

The connection that lies between Miyu, Shirō, and Ainsworth will be told here.

The film's main cast includes:

Noriaki Sugiyama as Shirō Emiya
Mai Kadowaki as Illyasviel von Einzbern
Kaori Nazuka as Miyu Edelfelt
Natsuki Hanae as Julian Ichigi
Noriko Shitaya as Sakura Matō
