Here, people were born and lived out their lives.

Side-1
One of the places that humanity called home.
was one of these new promised lands,
Some 40 space colonies...
where forty or so colonies used to orbit,
...in this region once nurtured life...
all bearing life,
...as they rotated like clockwork.
following their course around the Sun.
Now, those nurturing colonies float dead in space like gravestones.
Today, these colonies remain in space
Ever since that day of despair three years ago.
like so many gloomy tombs,
Ever since the day the awful One Year War began.
since that dreaded day three years ago,
For three long years, we have waited!
since that day when the terrible One Year War began.
I find myself aboard the Earth Federation Force's assault carrier Albion,
Since that day...
about to put the continent of Australia behind me.
May 0082, the Federal Government starts work
Lost in melancholy. Saying nothing.
on its colony reconstruction plan.
Together with prototype Gundam Unit 01.
The plan consists of transferring colonies

damaged by the war on Side-3,
The prototype Gundams' system engineer.
the only one industrially capable of restoring them.
Until a few days ago—
We have waited three long years...
No, until just last night,
At this moment I'm aboard the Albion,
who could have imagined that we would find ourselves in this situation?
a cruiser of the Federal Forces,
It all began on that night that seemed like a bad dream.
preparing to leave the Australian continent,
When Unit 02, which had been delivered to Torrington Base along with Unit 01,
sadly and without a word,
with the Gundam GP01.
I'm a systems engineer with Anaheim Electronics,
Nina Purpleton.
An engineer of Gundam prototypes.
Only a few days ago...
No, yesterday evening,
no one would have imagined these events.
It all began that nightmarish night
when the GP02, which came to Torrington Base with the GP01,
was stolen.
was stolen.
What are you doing? Close that!
What are you doing? Close that hatch and get down from there!
Come down, do you hear me? Come down!
Come out! I know you can hear me! Come out of there!
Help! Stop the GP02!
Someone! Someone, please stop Unit 02!
I'm taking this MS and its nuclear warhead.
I claim this mobile suit and its nuclear warhead!
For the rebirth of Zeon!
For the revival of Zeon!
Commander Anavel Gato,
Lt. Commander Anavel Gato.
a Zeon ace, who distinguished himself during the war.
A Zeon ace pilot who had made a name for himself in the One Year War.
His nickname, Nightmare of Solomon, is well known
Even in the Federation, everyone knew his other name,
throughout the whole Federation.
the Nightmare of Solomon.
Even I had heard of him.
Even I knew who he was.
Time passes and the war becomes history.
Just as people had started to put the One Year War behind them, this happened.
But some cannot resign themselves,
Will an eagle that was injured ever fly again after it has healed?
just like a wounded falcon
The vitality of a generation who never knew the One Year War...
taking once more to the air...
...was also beginning to blossom here among Australia's natural bounty...
A generation that never knew the war
...at the Federation's Torrington Base.
had arrived at the Federal Base
Ensign Kou Uraki...
in Torrington, Australia.
...was one such person.
2nd Lieutenant Kou Uraki is of that generation.
I knew it, it's a Gundam!
Look, it's a Gundam!
Hey, Kou! Kou!
Hey, Kou! Look over there!
What?
- What? - That!
Look!
Another Gundam?
There are two Gundams!
This one has got a Core-Fighter!
Check it out, Keith! This one has a Core Fighter!
Yeah, I've seen it.
I'm not blind.
And that one's armour...
That one's awesome, too!
Fantastic!
That heavy armor is easy on the eyes!
Yeah. And so is she!
Yeah, she's easy on the eyes, all right.
No carrots.
No carrots, please.
I've got a question.
Agh!
Guided tours will be tomorrow.
Do you have a minute?
The Gundam's reaction speed is faster by half a second,
If you want a tour, do it after tomorrow.
and its power is tripled,
The Gundam's reaction speed is up 0.5 seconds...
whereas a GM only develops two thirds of that.
...and its output boosted by 30 percent.
The new one is equipped with anti-radiation armour
We didn't see even two-thirds of that in our GMs.
and a strategic nuclear engine, isn't it?
Also, that heavy armor model is an anti-nuke spec,
I thought so, but I wasn't sure!
and that shoulder bazooka fires tactical nukes, right?
You'd like to pilot it, would you? You've got a good eye, anyway.
I knew it! I just wanted to make sure!
We'll have to see if he's any good.
Are you gunning for a Gundam, too? You guys are as perceptive as they say.
See, I told you!
Maybe, but how are his piloting skills?
Are you loading its weapons?
See? Just as I thought!
Exactly! Now get out of there right now!
Are you loading the warhead?
If only she wasn't so distant...
Yes, I am! So quit getting in the way and get out!
Forget it, Keith.
She'd be my dream girl if it weren't for that prickly personality.
I think she hates you.
She's a lost cause, Keith. I gotta be honest, she hates you.
Yes, I know.
Yeah, I know! Let's go back, and you can join me as I drown my sorrows.
Come on, let's go and get drunk.
Wait!
- Hang on a minute. - Nah!
Just a little longer!
- Can't we stay and watch? - I'm all upset.
Forget it.
- OK, I understand. - Really?
C'mon, I want to watch some more!
Yes, I swear.
Hey, I have a broken heart here!
This Mobile-Suit is fantastic.
Fine, I get it!
I agree.
Do you really?
Has the bazooka's nuclear warhead been loaded?
I said I get it!
Affirmative.
Magnificent. What a splendid mobile suit.
I'll just check.
I think so too, sir.
Help! Stop the GP02!
You there. Has the bazooka been loaded with a warhead?
2nd Lieutenant Uraki!
Y-Yes, sir.
Uraki, I'm calling for help!
I shall try it out, then.
I'm a pilot!
Someone! Someone, please stop Unit 02!
Damage to inner hull, starboard hangar. Report!
Ensign Uraki?
Commander! Hangar report...
Ensign Uraki! I'll go get someone else! You can't handle—
The GP02 has been stolen in the name of Zeon!
I'm a pilot, too!
The GP02 has been taken?
Portside hangar inner bulkhead damaged! Damage assessment underway!
- Incoming missiles, distance 12,000. - What?
Captain! Message from the hangar!
Commander Gato.
Unit 02 has been stolen by someone claiming to be Zeon!
Gary, the mission is a success. Fall back.
Unit 02's been stolen?!
You won't get away!
Incoming missiles! Distance, 12,000!
It was probably at that moment that the synchronicity
What?!
between 2nd Lieutenant Uraki and the GP01 began.
Who's stupid enough to attack us?!
Yes. If not for that event,
Don't the Zeons know they lost?!
he would probably never have become the GP01's pilot.
Lt. Commander Gato!
Send first-aid teams!
Gaily? The operation was a success. We're pulling out.
Get me General Marnelly!
I'm not letting you leave here!
Maybe this was the moment that Unit 01 and Ensign Uraki...
...started to seem like one and the same in my mind.
Yes, if it weren't for this incident,
he might not have been made Unit 01's pilot.
Put out the fires in hit areas quickly! Haven't you reached Cdr. Marnery yet?!
Nina!
Nina!
No! My Gundams!
No! My Gundams!
Amateur!
You're green.
Where are you going?
Nina! Where are you going?! Wait!
She's going out.
She wants to go after them?
It was a long night.
It was a long night filled with mobile suits.
Following the GP02,
I joined in the pursuit of Unit 02—
following the GP01 and the GP02,
Rather, Units 01 and 02, wandering the dark wilderness.
I wandered through the night.
What the—?!
What?
For someone like me, who was on Earth for the first time,
I had never been on Earth before,
it was so dark that I could almost sense Ensign Uraki's terror.
and I now felt the fear of 2nd Lt Uraki.
Lt. Allen!
Lieutenant Allen!
Uraki.
- Uraki! - Yes.
Sir?
The result of the battle depends on your degree of maturity.
This battle will be decided by whether or not you two...
Where does Gato get his strength?
...stop being a couple of squawking rookies.
Remember what he said.
Who cares how good Gato is? Think back to the crap he was spouting.
Faith?
His beliefs, you mean?
I couldn't say.
I wish I could put it better, but yeah.
You have to believe?
What I believe in...
2nd Lt Uraki, do you read me? This is Nina Purpleton.
Uraki! Ensign Kou Uraki! Do you read me? It's Nina Purpleton.
I have a favour to ask.
I want to ask you for a favor.
A favour?
A favor?
Take care of the GP01 and bring me back the GP02.
Take good care of Unit 01. And...
Bring back Unit 02, please!
That's all I wanted to say.
That's all I wanted to say.
I understand. I promise.
Sure. I will. I give you my word.
Gato!
Gato!
Where are you?
Where are you?!
Why did you steal the GP02?
Why did you steal Unit 02?!
I don't have to explain myself to someone
I have nothing to say to the likes of you!
who knows nothing of war.
You don't even know what you're fighting for!
I'm a Federal officer!
Maybe not, but I'm still a Federation officer!
In name only!
Only a real man gets to say such things!
Die!
You're finished!
Aim for his cooling system.
Its shield! Go for its coolant system!
Curses!
I got careless!
Don't forget, 2nd lieutenant.
Mark my words, Ensign!
I shall destroy whoever stands in the way of the rebirth of Zeon.
I shall destroy anyone who stands in the way of Zeon's rebirth!
The mission to hunt down the GP02 had only just begun.
Our fate to pursue Gundam Unit 02 had begun.
That is what I realised
Ensign Kou Uraki's tense back said that more than anything.
when I saw the silhouette
The expanse of sea that stretched to the horizon...
of 2nd Lieutenant Uraki.
...seemed to bear down on the Albion as it went on its way.
The landscape unfurling under our eyes
It was actually a scar from the One Year War,
seemed to point an accusing finger at us.
something too huge to simply call the aftermath of the Zeon colony drop.
That of the ruins of an operation,
It was a claw mark gouged into the Earth itself.
when Zeon used a colony to bombard Earth.
I felt an indescribable dread.
Sinister ruins.
A sense that we were being caught up in something we couldn't escape from.
I was seized by a mute anxiety,
Maybe it was because of my being a Lunarian, a bystander.
like a trap gradually closing on me.
Don't be silly. Unit 01 hasn't been outfitted for space use yet.
Or perhaps it was just an impression born of the fact
It's only been a week, and those two are already lovey-dovey...
that I am originally from the Moon.
What's the point of checking the balancer settings?
31st October 0083
I want to get a feel for it quickly.
Idiot! The GP01 isn't equipped for space flight yet.
Besides, it's plenty capable even without the new parts.
They've become very closer over the last week.
I can't wait until the Full Burnern upgrade on the Moon!
Checking the stabilisers won't do any good.
You hothead…
I'm so impatient.
In space, even a GM can fly circles around Unit 01 right now.
I'm sure it could fly just as it is.
Don't be so rough with it!
No point converting it to Full-Vernian.
Wait until the thrust comes up to normal... See?
You really are impatient.
These balancer settings can't be right.
In its present state, the GP01 couldn't be used in space.
Aren't these level estimates too low?
More gently!
Don't fiddle with those!
A gradual movement.
I ran the numbers myself!
Isn't the level of the stabilisers a bit weak?
'Cause Lt. Monsha's also gunning for Unit 01.
Leave things alone!
So that's why…
I've done some calculations.
IFF signals detected.
I can't leave this GP01 to Lieutenant Monsha.
It's the Yulin and the Nashville.
So that was it.
We waited this long for just two ships?
Transponders identified.
Is that their way of saying that it's enough to search the shoal zone?
The Yulin and the Nashville.
Damn it, and this is the area with the best odds of enemy presence!
Two cruisers, is that all?
Lt. Commander Gato, returning from mission.
Well, that should be enough to explore the Dark Zone.
I've heard the report of you stealing the Gundam. Well done.
To think that's where the enemy HQ is probably hidden!
Thank you, sir.
Commander Gato reporting.
However, I have heard unpleasant rumors in my absence.
Congratulations! I've read your mission report.
You're referring to Commander Cima taking part in the operation?
Thank you.
I would like to know the reason why.
I heard some unpleasant rumours while I was away.
It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance.
About Lieutenant-Colonel Cima?
I thought I might be of some small service,
What's she doing here?
to the Admiral's Operation Stardust.
Watch what you say!
Commander.
All I want is to contribute
What is it?
to Admiral Delaz's Operation Stardust.
Understood. Patch it through.
I understand.
It's a Federation fleet. If they maintain course,
What?
our presence might be detected.
Good. Transfer it here.
Three ships?!
A Federal formation.
Admiral! Allow me to deal with them.
Its current trajectory is bringing it directly to us.
No, I'll go out. I haven't offered him a gift yet.
Three ships?
Show me what the Cima Fleet can do.
Admiral, allow me to go.
But sir!
No, I'll go.
At once!
It'll be my gift.
Lt. Commander, I'll see to it that you get easier missions from now on.
And the chance to evaluate Cima's fleet.
Go polish your Gundam or something.
- Admiral! - Yes, sir!
Sir, why would you involve such a woman?
You can rest on your laurels for a while.
I apologize for bringing in Cima while you were away.
Use the time to polish your Gundam.
But you would have objected if you had been here.
Why did you ask her?
Yes. What is inside her heart is black as pitch.
I apologise for recruiting her during your absence.
No matter how formidable a warrior she may be,
But you would have opposed me.
she is not one to bring light to the cosmos.
Yes. That woman's hands are dirty.
She is certain to bring dishonor upon Zeon.
She may be a competent officer,
Gato.
but she has no honour.
Do you remember A Baoa Qu?
I am sure she will do harm to our cause.
How could I ever forget? You saved my life that day.
Gato, do you remember the battle of A Baoa Qu?
No. You were reborn that day for the sole purpose of making Zeon rise again.
How could I forget it? You saved my life.
At the center of your being is a grand purpose.
Not quite. You were resurrected to build the rebirth of Zeon.
Those with a grand purpose mustn't be bogged down by trivialities.
Don't forget your oath.
Two things were indispensable for Stardust
Such details must not distract you from your oath.
to succeed. You stealing the Gundam, and to bolster the strength of our fleet.
For Operation Stardust to succeed,
He's usually here by now.
the Gundam and our fleet
So what?
do not constitute a strong enough strike force.
No carrots, please.
- He's late. - So?
Agh...
No carrots.
There he is!
Here he is!
Great...
Wait, Kou!
Nina!
I've isolated the problem of the fluttering gas commands.
Wait up, Kou!
The problem's here, isn't it?
Hi!
I'm eating lunch.
Nina, I narrowed it down to the throttle correlation curve!
Do you want my carrots?
Do you think that this was the problem? Look!
That's not the point!
I'm eating.
Hello, Nina!
In that case, you can have my carrots!
So this is where you hide out!
That's not what I meant!
Sorry to have abandoned you.
Why if it isn't Miss Nina! Fancy running into you here!
I was training a hopeless case.
I apologize for never dropping by!
Sorry.
Training a no-talent rookie has kept me busy!
I'm glad you're keeping busy.
Sorry, sir...
What does someone so busy want with me?
It's wonderful to have fulfilling work.
You're going to do some tests.
So, how can I help you at such a busy time?
You don't want some clumsy oaf messing up your MS.
You need to collect data, right?
Am I the clumsy oaf?
If it gets wrecked with a rookie at the controls, heads will roll.
Do you have any experience of space combat?
I'd never wreck it!
I've been studying the GP01's data.
Have you ever seen any action in space, boy?
Spend your time training rather than studying!
I'm going through Unit 01's data right now!
Are those figures correct?
Big talk from somebody who hasn't experienced field trainings.
There'd be less risk with the lieutenant.
My figures are right, aren't they?
Do you want to go out with me?
It might be safer to have the Lieutenant here pilot it.
What's that got to do with it?
Let's go out on a date when we get to the Moon!
That's another matter entirely.
Nina, is that really what you think?
Nina, is that really what you think?
- Nina's worried. - I wasn't asking you!
Miss Nina says she has reservations.
Come again?
I didn't ask you.
Is it true, then?
What did you say, you punk?!
You're far too arrogant.
Is he right?!
The Gundam isn't a toy.
You need to do something about that overconfidence of yours!
I need a serious pilot!
The Gundam isn't a toy!
I don't believe it!
It would make me look bad if you're only piloting it for kicks!
You no longer want me to pilot the Gundam?
I can't believe this! Didn't you accept me as the Gundam's pilot?
I didn't know you were so childish.
I wouldn't have if I'd known you were this thick-headed!
You're the childish one!
You're the one who's thick-headed!
2nd Lieutenant Uraki!
Ensign Uraki!
That was silly, Nina!
That was dumb, Nina.
Enemy cruiser spotted!
Enemy combat ship approaching! All hands to battle stations!
Combat stations!
I repeat, all hands to battle stations!
Everyone to combat stations!
Let's see some panic out there! I'm not a patient woman!
Come on, let's hurry it up.
I promise, I'll put you out of your misery quickly!
I have no patience. Let's cut short their suffering.
They're almost within range of our main guns.
They'll soon be in range.
Go ahead and cut loose! What about our Gelgoogs?
Vaporise them!
Launching now!
- And the Gelgoogs? - On their way.
Good!
Good!
- The launch of our MS? - Ready.
Are our mobile suits ready to launch?
Identification: Zanzibar class.
Almost!
Just one? They must fancy their chances.
One enemy vessel! Zanzibar-class!
Enemy MS confirmed. Number: 5!
It's just the one ship?
- They're firing! - Scare tactics!
Those are tough.
We'll tear those old Gelgoogs apart.
Enemy mobile suits detected! Five! Enemy vessel firing!
Five against three.
It's to rattle us!
Not forgetting someone?
A bunch of first-gen Gelgoogs will be child's play.
Yeah, and it's three against five.
Aren't you missing one?
Keith doesn't count.
Keith doesn't count.
Sorry.
Sorry, sir...
Take off, Keith! You're a sitting duck!
Keith, hurry up and launch before you get picked off!
Captain, a message from Jaburo.
Captain! Emergency transmission from Jaburo!
Later!
It can wait!
It's penetrating our communications network.
No, hang on! Something's cutting into the channel!
To the Federal Forces,
It's—
as well as the soldiers of the Principality of Zeon.
Attention, Earth Federation and soldiers of the Principality of Zeon.
We are the Delaz Fleet.
We are the Delaz Fleet!
The Delaz Fleet?
The Delaz Fleet?
Zeon's War of Independence,
It is obvious to all that the armistice ending Zeon's War of Independence,
known as the One Year War,
which has since come to be known as the One Year War is nothing but a lie!
ended, as everyone knows, with a false armistice.
This is because it was signed by traitors,
For this armistice was signed
who appropriated the name of the Republic of Zeon!
by traitors claiming to represent the Republic of Zeon.
We have never lost sight of the war's objective!
We, however,
That will be demonstrated in due course!
have not forgotten what we were fighting for,
Captain! The Gundam is requesting launch clearance!
as we shall shortly prove.
Ensign Uraki?
Captain, the Gundam requests permission to take off.
If he wants to go, he can use my GM!
- 2nd Lieutenant Uraki? - Tell him to take my GM!
The Gundam can at least set up a secondary defensive perimeter!
But the Gundam is operational.
Not a day has gone by that I have not thought of them!
We haven't for a moment forgotten
Those who were burned in the flames of battle,
all those who died fighting
as they fought for the Spacenoid autonomy they believed in!
for the independence of the Spacenoids...
He's tailing me?
He won't give up!
You're not getting away.
You won't escape!
And those youths who now boldly fly into that flame once more!
And today,
Oh, come on! Can't they punch through even that weak defense?
to this new generation ready to take up the torch...
I'm losing my patience!
Are you destroying them, then?
Prepare Mistress Cima's mobile suit!
You hopeless bunch!
Ensign Uraki,
Prepare Ms Cima's Mobile-Suit!
this is tuned for Lt. Burning, so the pedals will feel a bit tight.
2nd Lieutenant Uraki,
Plus four, right?
this is Captain Burning's GM. The pedals are stiff.
Ensign!
Plus four, eh?
Huh? What?
- 2nd lieutenant! - What?
Kou?
I'm taking the Gundam. Don't stop me!
Take that!
Kou!
Kou!
What the Spacenoids want more than anything is independence.
Please don't try to stop me! I'm going out in the Gundam!
But the Federation and its powerful war machine
Use this!
have deliberately stifled this dream.
Kou!
This is a self-evident truth.
I've known the facts which prove that in response to our demand for autonomy,
Aiguille Delaz! The spectre of Gihren Zabi!
the heartfelt desire of all Spacenoids,
Look at this prize of war.
the Federation intends to snuff out that feeble flame...
This Gundam was conceived as a nuclear carrier,
...with its military might before it can grow any larger.
in violation of the Antarctic Treaty.
Aiguille Delaz... The ghost of Gihren Zabi!
I defy anyone to deny that the Federation has sinister aims,
Behold! The results of our battle!
in light of this evidence!
This Gundam was developed for the express purpose of nuclear strikes.
Will you lie down and die?
This machine, a clear violation of the Antarctic Treaty and developed in secret,
What, another one?
is clear evidence of the accursed Federation's evil intentions!
Learn to shoot!
Why won't you die?!
There's only Keith over there.
Reinforcements?
Get away!
Panic fire won't save you!
Two of them?
Damn! Keith's the only one over there!
Three MS have broken through our defences!
Stay away! Stay away!
- Where's Uraki? - He's... What?
There's another?!
Uraki, what are you doing?
Three mobile suits have broken through!
Let me go! Don't stop me!
Has Uraki launched yet?!
Above you!
He's launching— What?!
Like a fairground ride.
Uraki! What are you doing?!
The catapult's broken.
Let me launch!
Are his stabilisers playing up?
I'm going either way!
Pathetic...
Uraki! Above us!
Got him!
So many to choose from...
Idiot! MS are precious!
I can't use the catapult!
Should have stayed...
Is that Gundam's balancers on the fritz?
Is that what took it out?
Helpless as a baby... What the—?
Where's Kou?
I hit him?
Ask yourself why the Zeon War of Independence broke out,
Idiot! Those suits are priceless! Never let your guard—
and why we've followed the ideals of Zeon Zum Deikun.
What? A pilot like that shot him down?
I should have stopped him.
Where's Kou?!
Damn armour!
Think back! Why did the Zeon War of Independence break out?
It's tough.
Why do we stand with Zeon Zum Deikun?
Ms Cima, it's time.
If only I'd stopped him...
Will you die!
The armor on that thing!
Hold on, Uraki!
You stubborn...!
He's been hit! Damn!
Mistress Cima! It's time to go!
This is your lucky day.
He just won't die!
Nice way of calling off a fight.
Don't die on me, Ensign Uraki!
Two Salamis cruisers destroyed,
He got hit? Now I'm angry... But I'll let you go today!
one Gundam damaged.
That one knows when to call it quits.
- Are you alive, Keith? - Yes.
Two Salamis-class, destroyed and the Gundam heavily damaged, huh?
We've waited three long years,
You okay, Keith?
and today we have no more doubts.
Yeah...
All sections report!
For three long years, we have waited.
Aiguille Delaz, what is your real objective?
Our ranks have been purged of those who heave a sigh of hesitation.
Revelling in the fervour of our young soldiers,
Enemy mobile suits retreating!
I turn towards Earth's Federal Government
All departments, check for damage!
and declare war.
Aiguille Delaz, what's your true objective?
For the honour of our homeland,
Now, with the passionate blood of the young flowing through my own veins,
which we hold so dear in our hearts.
I stand before you to declare war once more...
...against the Earth Federation!
For the glory of the homeland that we still hear echoing in our hearts!
Sieg Zeon!
Sieg Zeon!
Is there no hope of any reinforcements?
Then we can't expect any reinforcements, sir?
As an officer of the Gundam Project, I apologise.
As the man in charge of the Gundam Development Project,
Our chiefs of staff underestimate the Delaz Fleet.
it grieves me deeply.
My jurisdiction forbids my sending you more reinforcements.
But the senior staff underestimates the threat posed by the Delaz Fleet.
Captain Synapse you're the only person I can turn to.
I can't send you any further ships on my own authority.
Good luck. Over.
Please understand.
Prevention is better than cure.
Captain Sinapus, you're now the only man I can count on.
The Von Braun harbour command post
Do your best. Over and out.
is allowing us to moor at block 1.
If we wait for Delaz to make his move, it'll be too late!
Don't sulk, Kou.
We've received landing clearance from the Von Braun Port Authority.
- Welcome home. - All right?
We're to use Block One.
I hear it got rough.
Passengers of the Colloid, departing for Hong Kong at 16:20 hours,
Chief!
please report to Gate No. 13 for boarding.
You're safe and sound, that's what counts.
Cheer up, Kou!
Sorry I had you worried.
Nina!
It was very imprudent
Nina!
to send it to fight in space with its terrestrial equipment.
Hi, Nina!
I accept total responsibility.
Nina!
We have to repair the Gundam
Nina!
and supply the ship for tomorrow afternoon.
You guys!
Please let me be involved.
Welcome back, Nina!
5907...
How have you been?!
The density of the Minovsky particles should be...
We heard all about it! It must have been terrible!
Hey, Scott, couldn't you think about something else?
Director!
Are you a bit tipsy, Simone?
Ms. Purpleton, I'm glad to see that you're all right.
Thinking of stuff like that...
I'm sorry for making you worry, sir.
Having fun, Kou?
You certainly pushed your luck.
You got to enjoy yourself, old pal!
I heard you sent it out in a space battle while equipped for in-gravity use.
Good, good...
Y-Yes, sir...
And that's when I showed up.
There was no excuse for it. I take full responsibility.
Monsha, ace pilot!
The ship's captain wants Unit 01 equipped for space use...
Classy!
...by the day after tomorrow in addition to the repairs.
Yeah! I blew away those losers in the Delaz Fleet.
Director, I also have a request. Let me oversee it.
I massacred them!
If it's 5907,
Do you pilot a Gundam, then?
that would make the Minovsky particle dispersal density...
The Gundam? The Gundam is in pieces.
Come on, Scott, think about something else for once!
Because a clumsy oaf was in control.
Simone, I think you've had...
A fat lot of good that did Anaheim, eh, Uraki?
- By which I mean this! - ...a few too many!
They'll be working all night,
Are you drinking or what, Kou? Let's live it up, man!
while you're in here, getting drunk!
Sure...
We'd be grateful if you'd avoid the Moon.
Good boy!
Anywhere except the Moon, OK.
And that's when Monsha, ace pilot of the Federation, arrived on the scene!
It's so nice of you
Really? Wow!
to give your tacit approval to our mission.
Damn straight!
After all, the Selenites are as good as you
I sliced my way through one Delaz Fleet grunt after another!
at stirring up ill feeling.
Oh, you must've been piloting a Gundam, right?
Come on, all I want is to come to your aid.
A Gundam?!
In that case, maybe you could supply me with a working MS.
Our Gundam got trashed...
Or the colony could fall onto the Moon.
Because a rookie pilot was at the controls!
But that Albion is still an obstacle.
You hear me, Uraki? You're making life hell for Anaheim!
Just like being on Earth, isn't it?
They're working around the clock to fix it!
Not everyone on the Moon licks the Federation's boots.
Is this any time to be sitting around, enjoying a leisurely drink?
- I feel sorry for you. - Let's go.
I'll thank you to not cause any trouble on the Moon.
Are you an MS pilot?
So you don't mind if it happens off the Moon.
Give it back.
We're most appreciative of your tacit approval of the Delaz Fleet's uprising.
You'd better get practising,
In spite of all you say to the contrary,
or the Delaz Fleet will destroy you.
it's Lunarians like you who are causing so much chaos in the world, isn't it?
Not at all.
I'm merely saying that I wish to be of assistance, Mistress Cima.
If that's the case, maybe you could provide us with better mobile suits?
Or shall we drop a colony on the Moon?
That Albion is such a nuisance...
You think you're on Earth, buddy?
Don't think that everybody here wags their tail at the sight of a Federation uniform.
What a wimp.
Let's bounce.
A mobile suit pilot, huh?
G-Give that back!
You better work out harder, or the Delaz Fleet's gonna get'cha.
Where am I?
Where am I?
Did you find me?
You carried me here last night?
I'm Kou Uraki, Mobile-Suit pilot.
I'm Kou Uraki. I'm a mobile suit pilot.
Have you deserted?
A deserter, huh? You get scared of fighting?
Are you afraid of combat?
No... But a mobile suit was ruined because of me.
No.
Then quit. If you feel that way, better do it now.
But because of me, my Mobile-Suit...
If... If I could, I would.
In that case, quit. The sooner the better.
Hey!
It's not that easy.
This is— Isn't this a mobile armor from the One Year War?!
Where are you going?
Still no word from Uraki?
Is that a Mobile-Armour
No, sir, not at all.
from the One Year War?
I swear, that kid's nothing but trouble.
Still no news of Uraki?
Oh, so it's split up into various levels.
Nothing.
It'd be a pain if he went all the way to the bottom level.
He's acting like a kid.
It's nothing but factories and junkyards down there, though.
Are there so many levels?
I see. You still can't find Kou...
If he's at the bottom we're in trouble.
No, I haven't heard from him, either.
There's nothing but factories and rubbish dumps at the bottom.
I see, he stilll hasn't been found.
No, he hasn't called me.
Kou...
Kou...
Love makes you blind.
Love is blind, huh?
No, I've got stuff to do before the Albion leaves.
H-Hardly! I just have lots to do before the Albion leaves port!
Are you going back?
You're going with them again?
The evaluation is entering the critical stage.
The data we get from the Gundam now is more important than ever, right?
It's a great adventure.
She's risking her life for a great adventure!
A great love, you mean?
For a great love, more like!
Are you going to stop?
Cut it out!
The director wants you.
Nina!
An official request?
The section chief wants to see you.
Not really.
Chief? Is this a direct order from the company?
But there's been talk of having you transferred.
No, it's nothing that formal.
Your parents, who live a long way away,
But it's a fact that the topic of you being transferred has come up.
put you in my charge.
And from a personal standpoint, I also owe it...
So why insist on embarking on that cruiser?
...to your parents to keep you safe.
Especially as HQ want it to leave as soon as possible.
Besides, surely you don't have to be on a Federation warship to do your research.
Won't you give me time to think it over?
Upper management wants that ship out of their hair as quickly as possible.
I'm sorry.
Does this mean that I can't take time to think it over?
I myself made choices so I could look after my own.
I'm sorry about all this. But I have a family to think of.
Who are...?
You're—
Why? Why do you help your enemy?
Why? Why are you helping your enemy?
My enemy?
Enemy?
Kelly had resigned himself to never getting it repaired.
Kelley had given up on repairing that thing!
You're a Federal, eh?
You're in the EFF, aren't you?
I just want to stay here a while.
I just wanted to stay here a while...
Because you're a deserter?
Because you're a deserter?
Kelly lost an arm during the One Year War.
But Kelley lost his left arm in the One Year War!
He was then banned from flying,
He was taken off mobile suit duty as a result.
but he never gave up!
He still can't let that go!
Kelly used to be a pilot?
So Mr. Kelley was a pilot...
I've never liked videophones.
This is why I hate vid-phone calls.
They make me feel all funny.
You feel as if you had seen them in person.
Come and live with us, Nina.
Nina, it's time to come live with us.
New Antwerp is a lovely place,
New Antwerp's not so bad.
and not far from Granada.
Plus, it's close to Granada.
Are you listening, Nina? Show me your face.
Are you listening, Nina? Will you let me see you?
Don't worry, dad. I'll come.
You can relax, Dad. I'll come home.
Good. When your director
Honestly, when your section chief told me...
told me you were boarding a military ship...
...that you were aboard a Federation warship, I was worried sick.
It won't be this time.
I blew it again...
Where have you got to, Kou?
I guess it's time to pack it in, Kou...
Kelly!
Mr. Kelley!
What do you want?
What's with the angry look?
I didn't know you'd been a Zeon pilot.
I can't believe it! You were a Zeon pilot?!
She told you everything, eh?
She just had to blab it out…
What difference does it make?
Yeah, that's right.
I never asked you to stay or help me repair the MA.
But I didn't ask you to stay here or help me repair my mobile armor!
Your girlfriend's worried.
Miss Lateura is worried about you.
I'm not listening to lectures from a coward like you!
A spineless coward like you has no right to pass judgment on me!
Not happy? Come here, then.
Does that make you mad? Then come at me.
Otherwise, just slink away!
Otherwise, turn tail and run away!
Damn you!
Damn it!
Kelly! Stop it!
Kelley! Stop it!
You damn...
You little—
That'll do! Stop it!
He's had enough! Just let it go.
I'll never give up,
I refuse to end up some whipped dog! No matter what happens!
whatever happens!
Just leave! Leave and don't come back!
Leave! Now!
I got a call from Maura.
Mora called to tell me
She said you might be down here.
that I'd find you here.
I thought you were busy with your work at Anaheim.
I thought you were snowed under with work.
I guess you need to step away every once in a while or you'll burn out.
You have to take some time off now and then.
Has this helped you clear your head?
Do you feel better now?
Let's go back to the Albion.
Let's go back on the Albion.
Kou?
Kou?
I'm awaiting your return.
I look forward to your return.
The time has come for us to show some backbone.
The time for our rebirth is upon us at last.
I'll be honest with you.
This is just between us.
I'll soon be taking up a mission on Earth, in Australia.
Soon, I shall go down to Australia on Earth to carry out a certain objective.
You'll then hear from Admiral Delaz.
When I do, you will hear Admiral Delaz's voice.
And we'll fight side by side, like on Solomon.
This is our chance to fight back!
I'm waiting for a positive response from you.
Let us fly side by side as we did at Solomon!
To my friend, Captain Kelly Layzner. From Anavel Gato.
I await your favorable reply. To my dear friend, Lt. Kelley Layzner.
Gato...
From Anavel Gato.
What are you up to?
Gato... What are you up to right now?
Not right now.
I can't go back yet.
I've got something to finish first.
I have unfinished business here.
Something's bothering me, deep down inside.
I have to deal with something that's smoldering deep down.
I'll come back, I promise.
I will come back. I promise.
Tell the captain.
Please tell the Captain that.
Thanks for coming.
Kou!
The Gundam trials will take place at the Anaheim factories
Thanks for coming all this way!
tomorrow at 10am.
Kou!
The Gundam's trials will be at Anaheim's Livermore factory!
At 10:00 AM!
Why did you come back?
Why did you come back?
I'm going to join my ship.
I'll go back to my ship. I just want to fix this first.
But I wanted to finish this first.
Out of pity?
- Out of pity? - Not at all.
No.
I thought... If I deserted now,
I gave it a lot of thought.
what would become of me?
If I gave up being a pilot, what would I be then?
I could earn a living as a mechanic.
I could make a living tinkering with machines. But I—
But...
Running a junkyard's not so bad. That's what I told myself.
I thought I could live the rest of my life like that.
But something deep down inside me...
But something deep down in me said,
A pilot is what I am.
"You're a pilot."
It's the same with me. I know the feeling.
Same here.
Gundam Unit 01, Full Burnern...
That's what I thought.
Launching!
Gundam GP01,
750...
Full-Vernian...
Looking good. No sign of any G-flutter.
Go!
900!
750.
Okay... Punching it!
Everything's OK. No G-force vibration.
69...
OK, let's go!
55...
69,
46...
55, 46,
32...
32, 17.
17...
Photonic propulsion over.
Propulsion laser feed terminating!
Good.
Very good! We will now depart the Moon's gravity well!
Now let's leave the lunar orbit.
Axis, located far away from the Earth Sphere.
Axis, located in the distant asteroid belt,
This was another hive of Zeon remnant forces.
is the last refuge of the survivors of Zeon.
A fleet dispatched from there...
A fleet has been fitted out there in secret,
...was coming to provide unofficial aid to Delaz.
with a view to supporting Delaz.
At around this time, Aiguille Delaz was moving...
At the same time, Delaz himself
... his own pieces towards the Solomon Sea Sector.
has been moving his pawns towards the Sea of Solomon.
The target of Operation Stardust was to be found in the Solomon Sea Sector.
Is that the real objective of Operation Stardust?
Which meant that the stolen Gundam Unit 02 would also be there.
Is that where the stolen GP02 is being kept?
IFF identification still underway. However, it is definitely a friendly.
IFF undergoing identification.
Lt. Bait's squad is en route.
It's an allied ship.
Another ship on its way to take part in the naval review?
Lieutenant Bate is intercepting it.
That's two days away. The first one since the One Year War.
Will this ship be taking part in the naval review?
Guess the Federation top brass are finally getting off their lazy backsides.
It'll be the first review since the end of the war.
That's not true.
The army bigwigs have finally shifted their arses!
This naval review has been on the books for a while.
You're wrong.
As the fleet's newest ship, we should have been in it, too.l
The ceremony had been planned for a long time.
Maybe the senior staff is going through with the review,
We were meant to take part, as a new cruiser.
because they want to showcase the Federation's strength.
In fact, the chiefs of staff ordered this naval review
as a demonstration of force.
Captain.
New contact in EB-2. Captain Burning intercepting.
Captain, object straight ahead.
- It's big... It's enormous! - What?
You had me worried. It's just the colonies in transit.
Is a colony that big, then?
They're convoying the damaged colonies to Side-3.
It's phase 2 of the colony reconstruction plan.
So that's a space colony?
The Sea of Solomon
Commander.
How are you?
Fine. I was thinking of my comrades who fell among those stars.
I understand.
Of all those who fought at your side,
I'm the only survivor.
Karius,
did I make the right choice coming here,
where there are so many memories to haunt me?
Were all those sacrifices necessary?
This sea is still in turmoil.
It'll take time before the waves subside.
No doubt.
All I'm doing is crossing it, after all.
Lieutenant Bate, unknown at 0-1-0.
Trajectory open!
OK, seen it. Didn't even have time to eat.
Adel, two minutes late!
I fancy a bit of duck tonight.
How many MS will that be?
That's the 11th found.
The Vella Lavella sector was left without protection
with the return of Keith and Uraki.
Catapult to starboard!
Lieutenant Adel's GM Cannon ready to take off.
Here. Congratulations on your 3rd victory.
This sea is hell.
Fix your feet
and recheck the syntonisation of the locaters.
What's that?
Take the armour apart!
All right? This is your 3rd outing today.
You're dripping!
What is it?
I don't smell too good.
You big ninny!
Can't you smell the air?
A closed-up cruiser is a real cocktail of smells.
Body odour
mixed with the smell of oil...
Don't you want to quit?
Federal Earth Forces, defence HQ of Konpei Island sector
Don't you think Konpei Island is extraordinarily calm?
Where is Zeon hiding?
Our defence system is impenetrable.
So far we've destroyed 37 enemy MS.
Let them come,
with their pathetic attacks.
Admiral, it's time to go back aboard the Birmingham.
A gentleman has a duty to be punctual.
The aim of this naval review
is to show these Spacenoids how powerful the Federation is.
The end of the ceremony will mean the defeat of the Delaz Fleet.
MS catapulting imminent.
Evacuate launch area!
How long will this go on?
Until I capture Gato?
Lt Monsha, course clear. Good luck.
Yeah, you too.
Year 0079 of the Universal Century
will be remembered as the worst year of history.
Overcoming this tragedy, we have organised this naval review,
the first in three years.
For us keepers of the peace, this event is cause for great joy.
The origin of the naval review
goes back to 1341, during the Hundred Years War,
when King Edward III himself
reviewed his fleet before it cast off.
Space belongs to one and all.
It cannot be the property of a minority...
What tripe!
Being forced to listen to this Federal codswallop!
No!
We must resist.
We must survive and wait to seize our opportunity.
Your life is now my responsibility.
Is that clear?
It's blasphemy to those who have died.
Let them say what they want, commander.
We're here.
Yes, to sweep up all that Federal detritus.
Right, let's go! The others can make the diversion!
Yes, sir!
He's not here, either. Where's the main group?
Admiral, the enemy is intercepting in A3 and L6.
Delaz's objective is this site, without a shadow of a doubt.
His fleet will be swept away.
We'll show him that without any MS he won't get far.
Admiral, 3rd reconnaissance flotilla to port.
Defence satellite 4 here!
Pitiful!
Their reinforcements!
Captain Bate! Do you read me?
Large enemy formation in the Ramos sector.
Block G-77.
I read you. Let's go! I'm starving!
How was the duck?
Uraki here. Where's the GP02?
Has Gato been spotted?
Negative.
No contact for the moment.
There are plenty of ruins left from the Battle of Solomon.
Good.
The Federals won't spot us so easily.
It's almost like you can hear the sea sobbing.
As if it were begging us.
It's welcoming us.
I can hear it quite distinctly.
Uraki, behind you!
These are pros, not like those before.
That'll do, Karius. You can pull back now.
Negative, it's still dangerous.
Thanks, but I know this area like the back of my hand.
Operation Stardust will...
An automatic satellite!
We've been spotted!
A new enemy contact? Where?
In S-0. Two MS in the Dark Zone.
- We have a visual! - What?
What? Gato in S-0?
We can't get there from here.
Go, Uraki! The Full-Vernian can make it!
Yes, sir!
Leave it to us. Keith, follow him!
I read you!
Another?
Get over here!
Behind! I don't have time!
Leave it to me! Get to Konpei Island.
- No, to Solomon! - Good luck!
Wait, Kou! It's risky going alone.
I hope I can get there in time!
The moment has finally arrived
to show that our heroes did not die in vain.
You won't stop me!
The GP02?
Where is it?
Behind Konpei Island!
For the rebirth of the ideals of Zeon!
For the success of Operation Stardust!
SOLOMON! I HAVE RETURNED!
Is that what Stardust is?
Gato!
Wait, Kou!
Quartz here! If there's anyone, come in!
Is anyone receiving me? Quartz here!
They're scrambling our transmissions.
Delaz Fleet, do you read me?
That colony belongs to the Colonial Government.
I see that Gato gave them a hiding.
Ms Cima, it's time.
Let's go. We've come this far...
Our losses are incalculable.
Two thirds of the fleet are inoperative.
They're finished.
Even with only a third of our total force,
we have a numerical superiority.
On the other hand, the enemy used its only asset.
Too easy. Like crushing a fly.
Below?
Gato! If you can hear me, come in!
I know you can hear me, Gato!
You might have forgotten. I haven't.
The GP01 pilot!
I'll keep following you till we finish this.
Come to celebrate my victory?
Did I get him?
No. Where is he?
Too late!
You might be proud of yourself,
but for us, from whom you stole the GP02,
it's a humiliation!
I understand.
You seem to have had a hard time.
Are you listening? I'm on 582!
- Yes, I hear you. - What?
Every confrontation is born of a grudge, and that's normal!
Cut the cackle!
But if you think your rancour is enough,
you are wrong!
For I have justice on my side!
Damn!
The left arm doesn't work!
He's made progress.
Why?
Why do those two have to fight?
We don't have the same values.
It's not over!
Commander, eject!
The Core-Fighter's blown!
Your name is Uraki, is it?
What?
I won't forget that name.
Gato!
Contact has been broken.
Lieutenant Uraki is safe and sound.
Why?
Why has it come to this?
Lineback 1 here.
We're at the point where we lost contact.
Nothing to report.
What?
The Federals have spotted us! Set the pack on them!
We've been spotted!
But it's too late.
Ms Cima, all our MS have been pulled back.
Calling all ships. Prepare to fire...
Fire!
A colony diverted?
They've diverted two colonies in transit,
and destroyed their mirrors.
What do they want with uninhabited colonies?
What does it mean?
I called you here
because I think Delaz is still hiding
his true objective.
The attack on Konpei Island may be only a prelude.
Otherwise, why would Delaz have made such a speech?
Intimidation?
I don't think so.
I requested permission from Admiral Kowen at Jaburo
to requisition the GP03.
Ms Nina?
No, don't! I'm not responsible for that one.
So there exists a GP03?
Captain, I volunteer!
No, it's a radically different machine.
We've already modified our trajectory.
We're heading for point 35B, towards La Vie en Rose.
Captain!
Captain!
An urgent report!
New contact in EB-2! Lt. Burning's squad on route!
A colony diverted!
Lieutenant! Reported objects dead ahead!
But why destroy the mirrors?
They're big! Really big!
Mirrors?
What?
If my theory is correct,
Don't scare me like that!
colonies without mirrors
It's that space colony relocation they told us about!
will find that their rotation axes will gradually change.
I-I can't wrap my head around how big colonies really are...
After a while...
They're sending colonies that were damaged in the war to Side 3.
The two will collide.
I guess this is the Colony Restoration Project's second batch.
Then ricochet, before one of them
So these are space colonies...
is caught by the Moon's gravity.
Lt. Commander.
They want to bombard the Moon!
Is something the matter, sir?
Captain, we have to stop them.
No, I was just thinking of all our comrades who fell in this sea.
We'll never get there in time.
I know what you mean, sir.
Admiral, the colonies have just collided.
Of all those who fought directly under you, I'm the only one left.
Full speed ahead!
Karius, was this wise?
Axis Expeditionary Fleet
Returning here to this place that is haunted by so many ghosts?
We mustn't take part in the combat.
Am I able to do this because of so many sacrifices?
The Federation allowed us to remain on that condition.
This sea is still young.
Thank you.
Its waves won't calm down for a while yet.
Thanks to the neutral
Yes, you're right. I must simply race through it.
Lt. Bait! One unknown at 0-1-0! Course is clear!
Yeah, I can see it! Damn it, can't a man even sit down for a meal?
Resupplying of Lt. Adel's suit is two minutes late!
I gotta cook these sitting ducks all by myself?
How many bandits does this make?
This makes the 11th we've detected!
But due to the return of Lt. Uraki and Ensign Keith,
Vella Lavella airspace is now shorthanded.
Lt. Adel's GM Cannon launching from starboard catapult!
Be advised!
Here you go! That was great, you splashed three!
This sea sector is hell...
Run a quick trend check on the legs!
And run the sync check with the localizer twice to be safe!
What's that sound?
All sections, release override!
Kou!
Nina...
Are you holding up? That makes three sorties today!
Oh, look how sweaty you are!
What's the matter?
Uh, nothing. I just smell bad, so...
Silly boy!
Haven't you noticed the smell in here?
Airtight warships sure are bad.
The stuffiness and body odor...
With the smell of oil mixed in.
Would you mind not talking like that?
It almost seems too quiet here at Confeito.
Have we found any Zeons lurking about?
Our security screen is flawless.
So far, we have shot down 37 enemy mobile suits.
If they're coming, just come.
What are such scattershot attacks meant to accomplish?
Admiral, it's time to go to your flagship, the Birmingham.
Yes, a gentleman must always be punctual.
Gentlemen, this naval review is the perfect opportunity...
...to demonstrate our power to those Spacenoid scum.
Completing it will signify the defeat of the Delaz Fleet!
Launching mobile suits! All hands, stand clear! Stand clear!
How long will these battles go on?
Until I catch Gato?
Lt. Monsha, your course is clear! Good luck!
Back at'cha!
Universal Century 0079.
The last great war was the darkest year in human history.
But we overcame that tragedy...
...and now I'm pleased that three years later,
...the largest pageant in space, shall become the...
...embodiment of the peace and stability of the Earth Sphere.
The tradition of the naval review dates back to 1341 of the old A.D. era.
It began in the Anglo-French War, when King Edward III of England...
...personally reviewed his fleet as it set sail to go into battle.
We cannot allow the bounty of space that we all share...
...to be ruined by those who would—
Pathetic!
We shouldn't have let the Federation make such an abominable speech.
No!
For n
