HOUSTON – August 16, 2022 – Home video distributor Section23 Films announced today a special collaboration with Bandai Namco Filmworks Inc. to distribute ROYAL SPACE FORCE – The Wings of Honnêamise, the first feature-length animated film by renowned anime studio GAINAX.

Bandai Namco Filmworks Inc. describes the plot of the film as follows: “The Royal Space Force is established in Honnêamise - a fictional kingdom on a fictional planet. Although the force boasts 30 years of history, they haven't been able to achieve solid results; people and the government have given up on them, seeing the force as a burden. Shirotsugh Lhadatt, the protagonist, is a member of the Royal Space Force, which far from their dreams have gone into idleness.
One day, Shirotsugh meets Riqunni, a girl who preaches God's word, and his destiny drastically changes, leading him to volunteer to be a space pilot..."
