The ship's crew is killed and it is taken over by refugees and inexperienced soldiers. The White Base and Gundam are attacked when they are packing up to head to earth. Gundam is housed in "White Base" a new Federation battleship. The Earth Federation constructs an array of top secret ships and mobile suits (Gundam). Earth Federation is losing horribly due to the Zeon's mobile suit technology. It is the Universal Century 0079, the Earth Federation is fighting a rebel space colony force who call themselves Zeons. All in all it was pretty boring.1979, 1980, Action, Classic, Mecha, Sci-Fi, Shounen, TV The animation was good, without being exceptional, the acting was OK, but I didn't get anything out of the story, didn't empathise with any character and I do not feel the need so see what happens next. ![]() And to top it off, there are two battles in total involving Mechas, one of them seen from the standpoint of civilians running around dodging debris. Everything stands on your ability to have seen, liked and remembered the preexisting content. Characters pop up, complete with names and former connections to existing characters, and you are supposed to know who they are. I can't complain about the story too much, other than it was filled with hard to believe coincidences just in order to keep the same characters in focus, but without being familiar with the stories you won't get what this film was about. I don't enjoy Mechas that much and the only reason I watched this was that I thought some of the Mecha stories were good stories. If you are a fan of the series you will enjoy the parallel story and the hidden gems, if you are not you might like the film and try the series. The difference between a series episode and a movie is that, even if they are connected, the film attempts to provide a standalone story that anyone can enjoy. ![]()
