Gold Kingdom and Water Kindom Anime Film’s Full Trailer Tells The Beginning of An Epic Love Story
The official website for the forthcoming anime film adaptation of Nao Iwamoto’s romance fantasy manga Kin no Kuni Mizu no Kuni / Gold Kingdom and Water Kingdom has started streaming a 100-second full trailer.
In addition to the beautiful scenery and a love story tossed around in the diplomatic relations between two nations, the clip also introduces “Brand New World,” one of the three insert songs of the film sung by singer-songwriter Kotone.
It has also been revealed that Evan Call (Violet Evergarden) works on the film’s soundtrack music. He says, “Since the two countries have different cultures, we used different instruments inspired by each country. I composed the music so that the colors of each country would come out strongly. I believe that the real world should be like the characters in this film, where people from different countries and backgrounds understand each other and share warm feelings. I hope that when you watch this film, you will feel the humanistic kindness of people who respect each other and face each other.”

Once upon a time, there were two neighboring countries that did not get along.
They bickered over trivial things day in and day out. Finally, they went to war over the issue of cleaning up dog feces. God intervened in a hurry and said to the chiefs of the two countries,
– Country A gives its most beautiful girl to Country B as a bride.
– Country B gives its wisest young man to Country A as a bridegroom.
Then, the princess of country A, Sarah, happens to meet a young man from country B…!
