Story
Mobile Suit Gundam AGE takes place over the course of a century during a "One Hundred Year War". Mankind had migrated to space colonies several centuries ago, with wars on Earth having long ended. Suddenly during the Advanced Generation (AG) Year 101 an Unknown Enemy (UE) appears and starts to attack Earth and colonies starting a full-scale war. They destroy the space colony "Angel" in a disaster later referred to as "The Day the Angel Fell". In AG 108 the UE attack a once peaceful colony known as "Orvan". Flit Asuno, a seven-year-old boy at the time, had his mother killed in this attack. Before she died, she gave him the Asuno family heirloom—the "AGE Device " memory unit. Using plans hidden within this unit, Flit begins to develop the mobile suit "Gundam", humanity's last hope.

AG 115 (First Generation)
In the year AG 115, Flit Asuno, now age fourteen, lives on the colony "Nora" in an Earth Federal Forces military base named "Aliston". After seven years of research and development collaborating with the EFF, Flit completes development of the Gundam AGE-1, allowing it to self-evolve through combat experience. The UE finally begins an attack on the colony "Nora" and now Flit has no choice but to fight with the Gundam.

AG 141 (Second Generation)
25 years have passed since "The War of Bat Extermination" in which the Veigans' main fortress was destroyed. Flit Asuno is now a commander of the Earth Federation space command fortress "Big Ring", while Millais Alloy takes over command of the Diva. Flit visited his son Asemu during his leave to celebrate Asemu's 17th Birthday and gives him the AGE device and takes the baton in fighting the Veigan forces that attacked the colony where Asemu lived and studied in school.

One year later, Asemu Asuno officially joins the Earth Federation Forces as part of the new Diva crew, piloting the new Gundam AGE-2 Normal, built from the battle data gathered from AGE-1 and became the main mecha of the new Diva mothership.
