Summary:
The year is Correct Century 2345. The civilization of Earth is at about the level it was during World War I. Long ago, humanity traveled through space, but the people of Earth have long forgotten about that. However, an advanced civilization still exists in cities on the moon, and now this Moonrace, in desperate need of resources, sets its sights back on its home planet. Three Moonrace teenagers, Loran Cehack, Keith Laijie, and Fran Doll, are sent to make sure that a return is even feasible, and are followed two years later by the invading Dianna Counter forces. Now, five thousand years after humanity first traveled into space, a new war is brewing between the Earthlings defending their homes, the Moonrace looking to settle on Earth, and other members of the Moonrace who believe a return to Earth may revive a nightmare from humanity's forgotten past...
Well ! let's start with the 'gundam' designed at first.. the reason i put the word gundam between inv. commas is because the mecha in the series don't share the characteristics of the other gundam series mainly the facial part. Others will argue i know, but in my opinion, even if they wanted to make something original, they should have given the mecha a cooler face not a 'moustache' on a curvy head.
The story is good and original and somewhat makes you forget about the design i mentioned above. As for the animation its more or less OK, some scenes lack fluidity though compared to older gundam series.
As a gundam fan despite my negativeness on the mecha design, I like this series and the gundam franchise overall very much mainly because of the realistic war theme/psychology and human philosophy which have always had an important place in every gundam series. I hope this series get remastered like the others as well.
