Synopsis[]
Seven years have passed since Sei Iori won the 7th Gunpla Battle Championship World Tournament. The Gunpla Battle Championship is now run by Yajima Trading. With new rules and new battle modes, the game's popularity has become even more widespread.
However, the Seiho Academy that Sei Iori once attended has failed to catch onto the trend. The only member of the school's Gunpla Battle Club is its president, middle schooler Fumina Hoshino. Currently, there is no way the club can participate in the middle and high-school division of the upcoming All-Japan Gunpla Battle Championship, where players fight in teams of three.
Then Fumina meets a new transfer student. He is Sekai Kamiki, a young martial artist who has been traveling with his master. Together with a young Gunpla builder named Yuuma Kousaka, they finally have three members for their team.

Trivia[]
- This is the sixth direct sequel in the Gundam franchise, and the third sequel set outside the Universal Century.
- Gundam Build Fighters Try is also the first to air alongside another series, specifically Gundam Reconguista in G. In fact, Shinya Watada is also a unit director for Gundam Reconguista in G.
- This series is NAOKI's debut as a mechanical designer for a Gundam anime.
- This is the first series with a new director to not be set in a new timeline.
- There are some Gundam references in the anime that are "accidental", which the staff didn't plan or realize until the fans mentioned them.
- The name "Build Burning Gundam" was director Watada's idea and inspired from G Gundam. He had no idea it was also God Gundam's name in the English dub.
- The character designs for Daiki Miyaga and Eri Shinoda (while disguised in her glasses) resemble Obright Lorain and Remi Ruth from Mobile Suit Gundam AGE respectively. Both pairs are in love. However, Onuki didn't intend for the new couple to be a homage to Obright and Remi.
- Gundam Build Fighters Try is listed as Season 2 of Gundam Build Fighters on the streaming service Crunchyroll.
