posted on by Lynzee Loveridge
The official website for the Gargantia on the Verdurous Planet anime updated with new character information for its Suisei no Gargantia: Meguru Kōro, Haruka OAV project.
The OAV will introduce Reema, a novice messenger transferring from the Kugel ship. She is 13-years-old and working under Amy.
Ledo is still working on Gargantia as a Yunboro pilot for Bellows' salvage shop.
To celebrate the new work, the site is holding a promotional video contest. Entrants are asked to make an original promotional video set to the series' opening theme song and upload it to Nico Nico Douga with the tag "Suisei no Gargantia PV Contest" before June 30. A winner will be selected on July 27 and win a prize of 300,000 yen (about US$3,000). The materials for entries will be available for download from April 1 to 30.
Viz Media licensed the original series and plans to release it on home video in North America this year.
