Firing it up, Amuro becomes an ace almost immediately, killing two Zakus (the standard Zeon MS) with little effort. This is the Gundam, the sole remaining prototype mobile suit. 15-year-old Amuro Ray, the son of the chief researcher to the V Project, is struggling to get his friends and neighbors to safety when he runs across an empty mobile suit. As the film opens, Zeon attacks Side 7, sending its top ace, Char Aznable to stop the V Project. The aim of the V Project was to build their Mobile Suits for the Federal Forces. The Duchy, within a month, has invaded and occupied half of the Earth's surface, thanks to the Duchy's ultimate weapon, 60-foot tall, heavily armed and highly maneuverable machines known as "Mobile Suits." The only thing that can save the Federal Forces of Earth is their top-secret "V" Project, based on the loyalist colony Side 7. Within the first week of this fratricidal conflict, one half of all humans have been decimated. However the ambitious Zabi family, rulers of the Duchy of Zeon (the grouping of colonies furthest from the earth) has sparked a war. Veteran pilot Amuro Ray returns to space for the final battle.In the year Universal Century 0079, humans have colonized the area of space lying in between the Earth and the moon. “The Earth Federation prepares to take the war into the Duchy of Zeon’s home territory. Mobile Suit Gundman III: Encounters in Space (1982) “The Earth Federation warship White Base and its Gundam pilot Amuro Ray struggle to make it back through enemy territory, pursued by Zeon’s warriors.” Mobile Suit Gundam II: Soldiers of Sorrow (1981) “The Earth Federation’s last hope in its fight against the Principality of Zeon is the prototype mobile suit Gundam, piloted by civilian Amur Ray.” Here are the four new movies scheduled to hit Netflix:

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans has been available since November 2019 while Mobile Suit Gundam UC was added even further back in September 2018. Netflix US is already home to a couple of Mobile Suit Gundam titles too. These four movies being added to Netflix make for a perfect introduction to the franchise, however. The franchise has spawned many movies spanning over four decades-long and is therefore quite daunting if you’re wanting to dive in.

The Mobile Suit Gundam franchise has only grown over time even though the original series fell flat and was canceled after a single season. We’ll shortly be adding these titles to the June 2021 preview we’ve got which is already stacked with new anime including The Seven Deadly Sins season 5 and more.
