Team Rabbits returns with even more mecha and combat action. Their leader, Izuru, has fallen into a coma following critical injuries he sustained in a fierce battle with his sworn enemy, Jiart. Now Asagi steps up to command Team Rabbits, but does he have what it takes to live up to his brother Izuru's legacy? There's no time for second-guessing as Asagai and Team Rabbits take the ultimate stand against a terrifying new enemy, the likes of which they've never faced. Explosive mecha action unfolds against a backdrop of alien warfare and gripping drama in Majestic Prince: Genetic Awakening!

The film opened in Japan in November 2016 as a sequel to the 2013 Majestic Prince television anime series.
