■About the anime "Mobile Suit Gundam"
Mobile Suit Gundam, which began broadcasting in 1979, is known for its realistic depiction of warfare, meticulous scientific research, and the use of robots as weapons known as "mobile suits."
With its complex and deep human drama, it established the genre of "real robot anime," which could not be described as a simple reward for good versus evil, which had been the trend in robot anime up until that point.
"Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans" is a robot anime series that has been widely expanded, including two TV series, The Movie, OVAs, and comics.
