Story[]
While preparing a tea party, Hello Kitty is contacted by Haro via her television and is asked to rescue Amuro. Kitty's television then shows Amuro's battles from Mobile Suit Gundam eventually culminating in his despair after accidentally killing Lalah Sune. Upon seeing Amuro's sadness, Kitty leaves her house to save him.
Hello Kitty would end up intruding into a battle in order to meet Amuro. Initially Amuro mistakes her to be a new unit from the White Base or related to Haro, and Hello Kitty offers to have everyone talk their way out instead of fighting. Amuro replies that it's too late to stop the fighting and asks her to stand down and leave, but the pair are attacked by a pair of Zakus and a Gelgoog. Though Amuro destroys the Zakus, the Gelgoog takes a shot at Hello Kitty.
To Amuro's surprise, Hello Kitty forms a barrier that protects her from the beam, and her energy engulfs the Gelgoog, rendering it into a miniature, friendly version of itself. Confused and terrified of such power, Amuro attempts to flee from Hello Kitty, who ends up using her powers to transform several other units during her chase. The two eventually form a telepathic bond, where Hello Kitty offers words of encouragement for working together in ending the conflict. A convinced Amuro finally thanks Hello Kitty for giving him hope and the pair soon return to battle together.
