New cinema features on platform

Netflix has added the anime feature films Fairy Tail: Dragon Cry (here), subtitled only, as well as Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods (here), subbed and dubbed, and Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F' (here), subbed and dubbed.

In Fairy Tail: Dragon Cry, Natsu and his friends travel to the island kingdom of Stella to find dark secrets, fight new enemies and save the world from destruction.

Tatsuma Minamikawa (episode director for Aldnoah.Zero, Attack on Titan, Haganai NEXT) directed the film at A1-Pictures. Shoji Yonemura returned from the previous two television anime series to write the script, Yuuko Yamada (chief animation director for Hakkenden: Eight Dogs of the East, Persona 3 the Movie #3 Falling Down) was the character designer and chief animation director, and Yasuharu Takanashi returned from the previous anime series and Fairy Tail Zero to compose the music. GAGA is distributing the film. The two-member unit POLKA DOTS performed the film's theme song "What You Are."

Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods is set after the defeat of Majin Buu. Bills, the God of Destruction, awakens after a long slumber. After hearing rumors of a Saiyan warrior who defeated Frieza, he tracks down that warrior, Son Goku. Excited at the prospect of a new challenge, Goku faces him in battle, only to be quickly overwhelmed by his power, and he is defeated shortly thereafter. Realizing the threat Bills poses to the entire universe, Goku and his friends must find a way to stop him before it's too late.

In Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F', Frieza is revived by two villains. He brings back his whole army with him. After training for four months in hell Frieza is now stronger than Mystic Gohan in his first form.

Original manga creator Akira Toriyama is personally credited with the original concept, screenplay, and character designs of the new movie. Dragon Ball Z animation director Tadayoshi Yamamuro directed the new movie. Pop idol group Momoiro Clover Z (Sailor Moon Crystal, Bodacious Space Pirates) performed the film's theme song, and also voiced roles in the movie, playing "angels" of hell that reside where the protagonist Son Goku's enemy Frieza has been imprisoned.
