Sunrise revealed “Freedom” by Takanori Nishikawa with T. Komuro is the theme song for Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom. The singer, who had contributed numerous theme songs for the Gundam SEED series as T.M. Revolution, is working with Tetsuya Komuro, the composer and keyboardist of TM Network. The latter band is also the one behind “Beyond the Time,” the theme song of the 1988 movie Mobile Suit Gundam: Char’s Counterattack.
A short preview of the theme song is available in the fourth official trailer for Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom right below:
Takanori Nishikawa and Tetsuya Komuro also provided commentaries about the theme song on the Japanese official website. Komuro noted that this is the first time he is collaborating directly with the man behind T.M. Revolution. Meanwhile, Nishikawa mentioned that Freedom will bring a conclusion to the story of Gundam SEED.
Previously in October 2023, Sunrise revealed the key Mobile Suits that will appear in the new movie. The series protagonist Kira Yamato will pilot the Rising Freedom Gundam, a cutting-edge Mobile Suit derived from the Freedom and Strike Freedom Gundams with a new ability to transform into a Mobile Armor mode.
Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Freedom will appear first in Japanese theaters on January 26, 2024.
