Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe is the Best Anime of 2026

Director Shukou Murase explains that Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe focuses more on character development than on giant robot battles, though action is still present. He describes the Hathaway series as a complex and thought-provoking story, a fitting continuation of Char’s Counterattack and the broader Universal Century Gundam timeline. Murase believes The Sorcery of Nymph Circe is a must-see in theaters for existing Gundam fans, and even suggests newcomers might want to watch the entire Universal Century series to fully appreciate it.
