In UC 0083,three years after the One Year Year(Orignal Gundam) Zeon ace pilot Anavel Gato steals a prototype nuclear equiped Gundam from a secret Federation testing facility of the behalf of a Zeon remant force known as the Delaz Fleet.Test Piolt Kou Iraki tries to stop him in another prototpye gundam but fails.Kou and the Gundam are then assigned to the Federation Assault Carrier Albion which is despatched to retrive the gundam and stop the Delaz Fleet's plans.This series is very good in that like the orginal,captures the ambigoious, unglamorous attitude towards both sides of the conflict.In many ways this could be called "The Principility strike back" because it is extactly that.The mecha designs are lovingly done and animation too is top notch.The only flaw? The characters are incredibly weak.Other wise a great series ****1/2/*****
