Synopsis
Season 1
During the One Year War of U.C. 0079, the Earth Federation and Principality of Zeon engage in a fierce battle at the "Thunderbolt Sector", a shoal zone in the former Colony Side 4 "Moore". After successfully infiltrating Zeon's sniper field, ace Federation pilot and jazz enthusiast Io Fleming is given control of the latest Gundam prototype.
Season 2
Seven months after the end of the One Year War, Zeon remnants remain trying to restore the Principality of Zeon. Daryl Lorenz, after losing his Psycho Zaku, has gone to Earth to gather intelligence with fellow Zeon remnants. Meanwhile, Io has been selected as the pilot of the latest prototype Gundam: the Atlas Gundam. The new battlefield is the South Sea Alliance, where the Australian continent is still scarred from the war.
