zeta gundam

It also had character designs by Kitazume Hiroyuki and Yasuhiko Yoshikazu.
Zeta Gundam followed in the footsteps of Choujikuu Yousai Macross (1982) by including a large number of transforming MS robots, a first for a Gundam show.
It is set in the year Universal Century 0087, eight years after the original series. It follows the story of Kamille Bidan, designer and pilot of the MSZ-006 Zeta Gundam, in a conflict known as "The Gryps War", between the oppresive and brutal Earth Federation Titans against the alliance of the valiant AEUG and the Karaba resistance organization.
The story of the series continues directly into Gundam ZZ.
To this day is considered by many anime critics as the most influential and best Universal Century Gundam series ever made.(1) (2)
