Storyline
The series is set in an alternate version of the Universal Century timeline, far apart from the original Mobile Suit Gundam series’ continuity where Char Aznable stole the RX-78-2 White Gundam developed by the Earth Federation and became its pilot instead of Amuro Ray, renaming it the “Red Gundam”. This event changed the outcome of the One Year War between the Federation and the Principality of Zeon, culminating with Zeon’s victory, with both Char and the Red Gundam disappearing afterwards.
Five years after the end of the One Year War, Amate Yuzuriha, a high school student living a quiet life on a space colony, becomes embroiled in unexpected chaos after meeting Nyaan, a war refugee. This encounter draws her into the underground world of Clan Battle, an illegal and high-stakes mobile suit dueling sport. Under the alias “Machu,” Amate pilots the powerful GQuuuuuuX, competing in relentless battles.
Her life takes a dramatic turn when she comes across the re-emergence of the Red Gundam, which is hunted by the space force and police. The Red Gundam’s current mysterious pilot, Shuji, carries the potential to bring profound change. Together, Amate, Nyaan, Shuji, and the enigmatic Gundam stand at the center of events that could redefine the future of their world.
About Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX TV Series
Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX (Japanese: 機動戦士 Gundam GQuuuuuuXジークアクス) is a Japanese anime television series jointly produced by Sunrise and Studio Khara. It serves as the sixteenth installment in the Gundam franchise, the second television series to air during Japan’s Reiwa era, and the second consecutive series following The Witch from Mercury to feature a female lead, alongside a male and female co-lead.
The series was officially announced during the “Gundam Conference Winter 2024” livestream on December 4, 2024, where the first trailer was unveiled. This marks the first Gundam production to be co-produced by Studio Khara, with a creative team composed largely of former Gainax staff who have worked on anime such as Evangelion, FLCL, and Diebuster.
Development for the series began in 2018. Khara had previously collaborated with Sunrise on in-between animation and production support, including the final episode of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn. As part of the creative process, director Kazuya Tsurumaki was granted the freedom to explore new storytelling and animation approaches.
Sunrise regards the series as a major work leading up to the 45th and 50th anniversaries of the Gundam franchise. To commemorate this milestone, a theatrical compilation film titled Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX Beginning (Japanese: 機動戦士 Gundam GQuuuuuuXジークアクス Beginning, Hepburn: Kidō Senshi Gandamu Jīkuakusu Biginingu) will be released, adding a celebratory element to the collaboration between Khara and Sunrise.
