The ZEGAPAIN STA anime film has Masami Shimoda returning to direct, with Katsuhiko Takayama on scripts and Aako Otsuka on music for the Sunrise production. Prior to this, a ZEGAPAIN ADP compilation film hit theaters in 2016.
Here’s how Sunrise sums up the original ZEGAPAIN story:
Kyo is a cheerful boy living in the suburbs of Maihara in Chiba. He’s a normal high school student whose life is busy with the swim team, friends, and romance. But one day a mysterious transfer student named Sizuno suddenly appears and guides him into another world — a world of giant robots and the conflicts he must become a part of. The more battles he survives, the more questions he is consumed by, but Kyo must fight through his anguish and commit himself to combat to save himself and his friends.
