MVM Entertainment have used this weekend's MCM Expo as a platform to announce some new releases for the coming year. Take a look at trailers for every one of the titles below!
Domestic Girlfriend
Domestic Girlfriend tells the story of the conflicted feelings of Natsuo towards his first love and the girl he lost his virginity to; the controversial and conflicting nature of romantic relationships between step-siblings and also between a teacher and a student while highlighting the themes of youth, family, friendships, learning, growing up, and career.
Unlike some of the other announcements, this already has a translation and dub courtesy of Hidive, so should be an early 2020 release.
Fate Heaven's Feel Movie 3: Spring Song
The film is the third part of the Heaven's Feel trilogy, and will premiere in February 2020 in Japanese cinemas. Therefore it's safe to assume that this will be released late into 2020.
