300 years after the Calamity War's end. The powers which ruled the Earth Sphere have been overthrown, giving way to new rulers of a new world, exhausted of battle. Meanwhile, far away on Mars, the sparks which threaten to ignite a new war have been struck... Our protagonist Mikazuki Augus, a member of the private security firm Chryse Guard Security (CGS), takes on a mission as bodyguard of Kudelia Aina Bernstein, a young girl who agitates for Chryse's independence from Earth. However, when the elite Gjallarhorn unit, charged with suppressing revolutionaries, raids CGS, its higher-ups deliberately use Mikazuki and the other boys as a decoy to cover their own retreat. Orga Itsuka, leader of the boys' squad, takes this abandonment by the adults as motivation to launch a full-fledged coup d'état. With orders from Orga to hold back Gjallarhorn, Mikazuki sorties in Calamity War-era scrap that CGS had been using as a generator—the Gundam Barbatos...  

Thing is, there are many other in the Mobile Suit Gundam series. This is just the first one that I started watching. I don't think you need to watch the other season to get what's going on in this one. This is a different bunch of people doing different things? I'm not too sure because, again, I didn't watch other seasons. I get what's going on in this season, so I don't think watching the others is necessary.  

This anime gets a 7/10. At first it was really hard to watch and get into, but I knew that I would hate myself if I quit because then it would get good. If you can stick with maybe about 5 episodes of establishing things, then it's not that bad, but if you're impatient like me and want action right away, that's not how this season goes.
