About Mobile Suit Gundam

Also known as: 機動戦士ガンダム, 劇場版ガンダム, 機動戦士ガンダム哀戦士編, 哀・戦士編, 機動戦士ガンダムIIIめぐりあい宇宙編, 機動戦士ガンダムIII_めぐりあい宇宙編めぐりあい宇宙編, 机动战士高达, MobileSuitGundam

A 1979 Science Fiction and Mecha anime television series. It is the first show in the Gundam franchise.

Set in the far future, during the year Universal Century 0079 (79 years after the creation of the first permanent colony in Space in 2045), it follows the story of Amuro Ray, the teen White Base crew member and pilot of the RX-78-2 Gundam Mobile Suit mecha during the Earth Federation-Zeon conflict known as "The One Year War". The story of this U.C. series continues in Gundam 0083 and Zeta Gundam.

It was produced by Sunrise (Company), created by Tomino Yoshiyuki and Yatate Hajime (a collective pseudonym for the entire Sunrise animation staff), with mechanical designs by Ookawara Kunio and character designs by Yasuhiko Yoshikazu. Tomino cited the 1959 novel Starship Troopers as an important inspiration for MS Gundam. He coined the term "Mobile Suit" for the show's mecha as a reference to the novel's "Mobile Infantry".

The revolutionary show is notable for helping to create the Real Robot genre of piloted mecha and has spanned a very successful franchise lasting over 40 years.

This tag is for the 1979 TV series and related media, such as the compilation movie trilogy from the early 1980s, only. For the franchise as a whole, use the Gundam tag.
