Plan are now being finalized for the Fairy Tail movie, Dragon Cry, including a new visual and a set of character bromides being offered with advanced ticket sales. Also announced, Natsu voice actor Tetsuya Kakihara and Lucy's Aya Hirano will be presenting a special greeting for the opening day screening at TOHO Cinemas Shinjuku.
The feature's titular Dragon Cry is a magical artifact, said to be powerful enough to destroy the world. It's stolen by Zash Caine (CV Jiro Saito) and brought to the kingdom of Stella, which is ruled by King Animus (CV Makoto Furukawa - One-Punch Man's Saitama) with the help of his magician, Sonya (Aoi Yuki - Madoka Magica lead).
Tatsuma Minamikawa, an episode director on series such as Attack on Titan and Gate, steps up to helm the A-1 Pictures production with series vet Shoji Yonemura writing the screenplay and Yasuharu Takanashi on the music. Yuuko Yamada (Persona 3 The Movie) provides character designs.
Along with acting as executive producer, manga author Hiro Mashima drew almost 200 pages of storyboards for the feature.
