On a Calm Day is Phase-20 (Phase-19 in the HD Remastered) of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED. It first aired in Japan on February 15, 2003 and in the United States on August 28, 2004.
Summary[]
Athrun and Nicol are given the day off; Athrun spends the day with Lacus and they talk about Kira. The PLANT Supreme Council debates on whether the attack codenamed "Operation Spitbreak" should be executed.
Plot[]
Notes & Trivia[]
- The mustache Lacus draws on Navy Haro resembles the SYSTEM ∀-99 ∀ Gundam.
- For some reason, the model number of the Aegis Gundam, "GAT-X303" appears beside Siegel's photo on the PLANT Graphic magazine.
- when Cagalli gets first in the rankings of the simulator, the 4th ranker is Shar.Z, misspelled Char and Z could represent Zeon.
Errors[]
- The score board for the Skygrasper combat simulator misspelled the word "ranking" as "lanking", and Cagalli's name as "Kagari".

Quotes[]
“ | "I understand that there has been an increase in people entering the military lately. A number of my friends have also volunteered to be soldiers. I feel that this war just keeps growing." | ” |
—Lacus Clyne to Athrun Zala, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | Lacus: "By the way, I wonder how Kira's been doing lately. Have you seen him since then?" Athrun: "I believe he's on Earth. I expect he's doing fine." Lacus: "Have you been friends since you were little?" Athrun: "Yes, we have. Since we were about four or five years old. We lived on the Moon then, until there were signs that a war would break out. During that time, I followed orders from my father and went ahead to the PLANTs. I had heard that he would be coming later." |
” |
—Lacus Clyne asking Athrun Zala about his friendship with Kira Yamato, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | Lacus: "I talked to him about Haro, and he told me that you hadn't changed. He laughed with joy... telling me that you also made his Birdy. He seemed to be taking very good care of it." Athrun: " He still has it?" Lacus: "Yes. I saw him a number of times with it on his shoulder." |
” |
—Lacus Clyne telling Athrun Zala about Kira Yamato and Birdy, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | "Its name is 'Birdy'. It's my... I guess you could say, a friend." | ” |
—Kira Yamato introducing Birdy to Lacus Clyne, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | "I am quite fond of him." | ” |
—Lacus Clyne about Kira Yamato, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | Siegel: "Must you continue repeating the same points over and over?" Patrick: "All I want to do is provide accurate information." Siegel: "Or information you carefully select to make your point?" |
” |
—Siegel Clyne and Patrick Zala, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | Siegel: "By spreading the war, you also increase hatred. How far do you people intend to go?" Patrick: "We must work on bringing this war to an end quickly, so that doesn't happen. There is no point in having a war unless you can end it with a victory." |
” |
—Siegel Clyne and Patrick Zala about continuing the war, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | Patrick: "We Coordinators are a completely different life form. There's no reason to coexist with Naturals." Siegel: "How could you call us a new life form, when we may be nearing the end of our road? Even with regulated marriage, our third generation rate of birth has continued to decline!" Patrick: "Our road to this point has by no means been an easy one. We should be able to overcome any obstacle, as we have done until now. As long as we put out minds to it!" Siegel: "Patrick! Lives are born into this world! Not manufactured!" Patrick: "You must understand that such concepts and value systems are grossly outdated! People will continue to progress, always searching for a better tomorrow!" Siegel: "But does that necessarily lead to happiness?" |
” |
—Patrick Zala arguing with Siegel Clyne about Coordinators, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | Patrick: "We can no longer throw away the power we currently hold and turn back on our evolutionary path, back to being Naturals." Siegel: "We did not evolve, Patrick." |
” |
—Patrick Zala arguing with Siegel Clyne about Coordinators, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | "Go ahead and be conceited while you can, Patrick Zala." | ” |
—Rau Le Creuset about Patrick Zala, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
“ | "We will not be ruled. And we will not rule. That's all we wish for." | ” |
—Sahib Ashman, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, On a Calm Day |
