Synopsis
In Universal Century 0087, seven years after the One Year War, the Earth Federation has succumbed to authoritarian corruption under the tyrannical military task force known as the Titans. In the space colony Green Noa 1, rebellious civilian teenager Kamille Bidan steals the prototype Gundam Mk-II, defecting to the anti-Earth union resistance group AEUG. Commanded by charismatic ace pilot Quattro Bajeena, who is secretly legendary ace Char Aznable, the rebels launch daring orbital operations against Titan strongholds. Kamille must master his volatile Newtype capabilities amidst brutal mechanized warfare across the stars.
