ayvmuyI.jpgThis year's 12th issue of Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine announced more details about the Fairy Tail: Dragon Cry anime film on Wednesday. The film will open in Japan on May 6, and the tagline on the new poster visual by manga creator Hiro Mashima reads, "That power … is it hope or destruction…?"

 

Mashima is drawing 193 pages of storyboard for the film, and is also serving as executive producer. Mashima also drew the first key visual for the film, which features Natsu half transformed into a dragon.

 

The issue is also revealing the returning cast and character designs for the following characters:

  • Tetsuya Kakihara as Natsu Dragneel
  • Aya Hirano as Lucy Heartfilia
  • Rie Kugimiya as Happy
  • Yūichi Nakamura as Gray Fullbuster
  • Sayaka Ohara as Erza Scarlet
  • Satomi Satou as Wendy
  • Yui Horie as Carla/Charle

The characters will be wearing new outfits in the film.

 

The issue is also revealing three film-original characters:

  • Sonia, a beautiful young woman.
  • Zash, a man who looks both evil and strong.
  • Animus, a man who looks like a king based on his garments, and whose expression suggests he has an ulterior motive. 

 

Tatsuma Minamikawa (episode director for Aldnoah.Zero, Attack on Titan, Haganai NEXT) is directing the film at A-1 Pictures. Shoji Yonemura is returning 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) is the character designer and chief animation director, and Yasuharu Takanashi is returning from the previous anime series and Fairy Tail Zero to compose the music. GAGA is distributing the film.
