Mobile Suit Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance (機動戦士ガンダム 復讐のレクイエム Kidō Senshi Gandamu Fukushū no Rekuiemu?), or simply Gundam: Requiem for Vengeance, is a 2024 Original Net Animation (ONA) animated by SAFEHOUSE Inc. in collaboration with Bandai Namco Filmworks.
Synopsis[]
In the year Universal Century 0079, a state of war began when the Principality of Zeon declared its independence from the Earth Federation government. In the war's opening stages, the Zeon forces maintained an advantage thanks to the effectiveness of their new weapon, the mobile suit. However, they lacked the fighting strength to fully conquer Earth, and the war became a stalemate.
Eleven months after the outbreak of war, a base in Zeon-occupied Eastern Europe is captured by the Federation Forces. A Zeon composite battalion is sent to recapture the base, and among its members are Iria Solari and her Red Wolf Squadron, a mobile suit team that has only just arrived from space...[1]
