Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX anime confirms release date as hype swells thanks to -Beginning- film
As mentioned above, the Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX anime series will premiere on Japanese television on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, at 12:29 am Japanese Standard Time (JST). The series will air on 30 Nippon TV affiliate channels, which have yet to be specified by the series.
As of this article’s writing, the anime’s official website has yet to confirm the series’ domestic and international streaming information.
This also rings true for the -Beginning- compilation film, which is still playing in Japanese theaters as of this article’s writing. It’s possible that this streaming information won’t be released until the film exits theaters, which would make sense given its purpose as a means of promoting the main television anime.
It’s unclear, as of this report, how much longer the film will be in Japanese theaters, but it opened on Friday, January 17, 2025.
