The year is 0093 in the Universal Century. Char Aznable has assumed command over Neo Zeon, which represents the rebels from outer space. He strongly believes that humanity can only achieve peace by relocating to space. As a result, he intends to crash the massive asteroid Axis onto Earth and cause it to enter an uninhabitable winter. Char is also eagerly anticipating this opportunity to settle his 14-year rivalry with Amuro Ray. Although they have been reluctant allies at times, Char has never forgiven Amuro for causing the death of one of his comrades during the One Year War.
Only the Earth Federation's Londo Bell Unit possesses the power to stop Char from fulfilling his dangerous objective. Leading the defense of Earth is veteran captain Bright Noa and Amuro Ray, armed with the latest Nu Gundam mobile suit. In this thrilling conclusion to the original Gundam series, Londo Bell engages in a final conflict with Neo Zeon that will determine the fate of Earth and put an end to this long-standing rivalry-once and for all.
