Disambiguation:

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (機動戦士ガンダム THE ORIGIN Kidō Senshi Gandamu Ji Orijin?) is a manga written and illustrated by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, published in Gundam Ace between 2001 and 2011 and is the second, broader manga adaptation of the original Mobile Suit Gundam television series, which follows a similar storyline, but with different details. Originally, it was published in English by VIZ Media under the title "GUNDAM THE ORIGIN" but only 12 volumes were published and it was cancelled.

In July 2012, the manga once again became licensed for publication in English when Vertical, Inc. announced that they had acquired the rights to release the series in special Hardback Editions called "MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM THE ORIGIN" based on the Aizouban released in Japan. Both include various extras such as interviews with Hideaki Anno, Makoto Shinkai and CLAMP, side story manga and guest illustrations, The first volume was released in the Spring of 2013. From March 22, 2014, ComicWalker began publishing digitally colorized chapters in both Japanese and English. The arcs of the manga that depict events before or in the early stages of the One Year War were later adapted into the theatrical OVA, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin.

Plot[]

In a brutal civil war, half of humanity has been wiped out, while Zeon's army of Zaku mobile suits is the ultimate decisive weapon. With the Federation's first Gundam out of action, teen Amuro Ray miraculously stumbles on a second unit - the awesome RX-78 Gundam . Now, in control of a machine with unparalleled destructive power, will Amuro's actions save the colony's survivors or destroy them? A sci-fi epic set in space, Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin retells the beginning of one of the biggest manga franchises ever created, more than 25 years after the series debuted [1].
