Synopsis:

The aftermath of a devastating interstellar war has ushered in an era of uneasy calm in the colonies of After Colony 196. Former adversaries, now grappling with the obsolescence of their powerful Gundam mobile suits, embark on a mission to dismantle these weapons by sending them into the sun. Their endeavor is abruptly disrupted by Mariemaia Khushrenada, the enigmatic heir to a fallen empire. She orchestrates a plan known as "Operation Meteor," aiming to resurrect her father's ambition for global control through a calculated and potentially catastrophic scheme.

Forced to confront a renewed threat and a shifting political landscape, the veteran pilots must reunite with their Gundams. They find themselves battling not only Mariemaia’s forces but also facing difficult choices as former allies are drawn into her orbit. The narrative explores themes of legacy, redemption, and the enduring consequences of conflict within a fragile peace.
