Two character trailers have been released for the upcoming Gold Kingdom and Water Kingdom anime movie. One focuses on Naranbayar of the Water Kingdom while the other features Sarah of the Gold Kingdom.
Gold Kingdom and Water Kingdom is set to premiere in Japan on January 27. It is based on the Shogakukan-published manga by Nao Iwamoto, which ran from 2014 to 2016 in Monthly Flowers and has one tankoubon volume published under the Flower Comics label.
The story involves two constantly bickering neighboring countries that eventually go to war, causing God to intervene.

In the midst of this, the princess of Country A has a chance meeting with a youth from Country B.

Pretty Cure series composer) as scriptwriter, Mitsuyuki Masuhara (Ace of Diamond and Shirokuma Cafe director) as animation supervisor, and Evan Call (Violet Evergarden) as music composer.
