Now, that’s not to say that “Narrative” was advertising itself as a totally accessible story for newcomers anyway, and the bare bones of a new plot is there enough that it is likely possible to follow along with the gist of things without doing research. But for others jumping into this for the first time, it might be just a confusing mess that looks very pretty but is speaking a totally different language (even when it’s dubbed in English). For longtime super-fans of this content like me, it’s no trouble going into this and feeling rewarded for having this prior knowledge so I can spot references to previously established characters, groups, and mechs that feel like all of that time watching has paid off.

See, “Narrative”, while being a complete story on its own, is also somewhat of a sequel to the 2010-14 series of OVAs, “Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn”, which itself was essentially a culmination of the main installments of the UC Timeline…which, altogether, amount to about 140 24-minute episodes of shows (some of which have not aged well) and about 8.5 hours of movies. Though before I can really start to talk about the film itself, I first need to talk about… What I get from this is that, when Gundam wants to do a movie, it’s meant to be a big event, or at least a big risk.
#Gundam nt rita movie
There was “Char’s Counterattack” in 1988, which effectively ended the story of the first protagonist and his rival, then “F91” in 1991, which was initially meant to be a series before being crammed into a cluttered mess of a movie (which is actually what I feared Narrative would turn out to be), the live action “G-Saviour” movie in 2002, which most people would rather have not happened, the sequel movie to the “Gundam 00” series in 2010, which received pretty mixed reception, and now “Narrative” in 2018 with more on the way as part of their “UC NexT 0100” project to chronicle new or newly adapted stories from the next in-universe century of the Universal Century. Gundam as a whole actually hasn’t had a ton of original feature films that weren’t compilations of previously aired material (or comedic stuff like SD). Now that story continues with the recent Western release of “Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative”. Other times it continues to add onto the main branch of the franchise and the universe that started it all: The Universal Century, which started with the original “Mobile Suit Gundam” in 1979. Some days, it can make a brand new series and universe for newcomers to jump in on, like how the West was introduced to Gundam through “Gundam Wing” on Toonami or the recent “Iron Blooded Orphans” series. The longevity of the Gundam franchise is owed in part to its flexibility with its brand.

However, the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam 03, which disappeared two years earlier, is now about to show itself in the Earth Sphere once more. The white unicorn and the black lion were sealed away to remove this danger from people's consciousness, and they should now be completely forgotten.

In its final battle, two full psycho-frame mobile suits displayed power beyond human understanding.

The conflict later dubbed the "Laplace Incident" is thought to have ended with the downfall of the Neo Zeon remnants known as the Sleeves. 0097, one year after the opening of "Laplace's Box".ĭespite the revelation of the Universal Century Charter that acknowledges the existence and rights of Newtypes, the framework of the world has not been greatly altered. It is loosely based on the novel Mobile Suit Gundam UC: Phoenix Hunting. Mobile Suit Gundam Narrative is an anime film that takes place a year after the events of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn.
