Although the upcoming Ancient G’s Frame is categorized as a donghua, it falls somewhere between that and anime. Even with a Chinese Studio, most of the staff are Japanese.
The story is set at the end of the 21st century where humanity has found a new energy source known as DG energy, which has enabled it to colonize space. On a mission to Pluto, mysterious lifeform attacks occur and they can only be fought off by ancient weapons known as G’s Frame.
The upcoming mecha donghua Ancient G’s Frame will premiere on October 12, 2021. The official website has released a visual before the series’ debut.
