The 1985 TV sequel to Mobile Suit Gundam. It was created by largely the same creative staff as its predecessor, but veteran designer Ookawara Kunio was assisted in mechanical designs by newcomers Nagano Mamoru and Fujita Kazumi. 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 mobile suit 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 an interplanetary conflict known as "The Gryps War", between the oppressive 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 (and Char's Counterattack, where it concludes).
