“Gundam THE ORIGIN: Rise of the Red Comet” Trailer #2 Featuring White Base & Bright is Now Public!

Summary

The battle to determine the battle between Zeon and the Earth Federation began on January 23^rd, UC0079 on Side 5 (Loum). Zeon, who had been cornered into an overwhelmingly disadvantageous position, immediately overturns the battle by throwing in their special assault battalion composed of their secret humanoid weapon “Mobile Suits” and achieve an overwhelming victory. Above all, Char Aznable of the Zeon Forces achieved great results with his red mobile suit “Zaku II” and was thus promoted to major while taking on the nickname “Red Comet”.
Following the Battle of Loum, the Earth Federation Forces plan Operation V to hit Zeon with a counterattack. In the background, a young Side 7 boy named Amuro Ray acts on his own and finds the secret new weapon “Gundam”.
On the other hand, declarations from around the world are sent from Luna II to Antarctica on Earth where the high officials from both Zeon and the Earth Federation Forces have gathered for early peace negotiations…
