Episode 1 • Oct 04, 2002
Itsuwari no heiwa
In the 70th year of the Cosmic Era, mankind's reach for the stars has granted him great leaps and bounds into the unknown... and fatefully divided him into two camps. Those of humankind who have stayed on Earth and the Moon, those of the nations of the Earth Alliance, have grown jealous of their more ambitious space-faring companions. These explorers are known as the Coordinators, an elite group of humans who have had their genes altered to bring out superior performance. Living in specially designed space stations called PLANTs (Productive Location Ally on Nexus Technology), they have been free of the discrimination they faced on Earth at the hands of unmodified 'Naturals.' For a while, both sides shared an uneasy peace. Then, on February 14th, CE 70, day of the Bloody Valentine tragedy, the bonds of humanity were shattered and the blood of the innocents spilt. Militant leaders of the Earth Alliance on this day used nuclear weapons upon an agricultural PLANT, and since that time, full-scale civil war has broken out. Forming a militia known as ZAFT (Zodiac Alliance of Freedom Treaty), the Coordinators have fought against the vastly numerically superior Earth Alliance forces. For 11 long months, war has raged, both on Earth and amongst the stars. Now, in the neutral space colony of Heliopolis, a young boy named Kiro Yamato watches the war news and thinks of his friend Athrun Zala, who he parted with some time ago and is now with the PLANTs. Little does he know that the peaceful colony is about to become a war zone as ZAFT comes searching for a secret Earth Alliance weapon, and the horrors of battle threaten to replace the old memories of friendship with new nightmares of Athrun... carrying a gun, and dressed as an enemy.

Sairento ran
Like a delicate leaf torn from its branch by the violent winds of a storm, the fragile flower that was Heliopolis fell from the sky amidst the flames of battle and the cries of friendship ending. The colony destroyed, Kira and the Archangel crew find themselves tasked with a desperate flight to Artemis, the Eurasian fortress asteroid that they hope will give them supplies and take them in until they can make a run for the Earth Alliance Headquarters on the Moon. In order to do this, Murrue Ramius, now captain of the Archangel, must guide the ship on a silent run, to try and sneak past Rau Le Creuset and his waiting duo of ZAFT ships. On his way back to the Archangel, Kira retrieves one of the Helipolis escape pods and brings it back to the ship, despite protests. Onboard is Flay Allster, one of Kira's friends who did not escape with him. Having rescued her and two dozen others from certain death in the depths of space should make him happy, but as he is once again approached by Mu La Flagga to pilot the Strike Gundam in future battles, Kira's thoughts are on the increasingly blurred line between civilian and soldier, and how close he has already come to crossing over it. Meanwhile, on Le Creuset's ship, Athrun tells Rau that Kira, his childhood friend, is the pilot of the lone Gundam that ZAFT could not capture in the battle at Heliopolis. Although sympathetic, Le Creuset tells Athrun that friend or no, as an enemy he must be shot. Certain that Kira is fighting for the Earth Alliance against his will, Athrun persuades Rau to let him try and talk Kira into joining ZAFT, the next time they meet. But if he is to fail, and Kira cannot be convinced, Athrun promises that he will be the one to deliver the fatal shot...

Super Atragon

Super Atragon

In 1932, the Japanese Army investigates a mysterious meteorite crash in Manchuria, and discovers a strange material that produces a previously unknown kind of energy. The mineral is later used during the Second World War to power a massive submersible battleship Ra, which is built to revitalize the war effort. Shortly before the launch, a young woman named Annette approaches the officers of the Ra and implores them not to use the battlesub. She says the material was sent by subterranean humans to test the surface dwellers right to live, and by using it as a weapon of war they are sealing the human race's fate. The Ra is launched in the twilight days of the war, and shortly after the bombing of Hiroshima the Ra encounters the American battlesub Liberty, whose crew has been tricked into fighting the Ra by Annette's former partner and friend Avatar, whose appraisal of the human race is much more negative than her counterpart. Annette stops Avatar with a blast of mental energy, but the Ra and Liberty destroy each other. Annette and the Ra's first officer are the only survivors. Fifty years later, an unaged Annette and the grandson of the Ra's captain, Go Arisake, are part of a UN team sent to investigate microwaves being generated at the South Pole. It proves to be a prelude to a massive attack from below the Earth, led by Avatar, that will culminate in the complete destruction of the surface humans. However, Go discovers his grandfather's old ship has been found and rebuild as humanity's last line of the defense, commanded by his believed to be dead father, as the final battle to defend Earth begins.
