Mobile Suit Gundam
In the original Mobile Suit Gundam series, the traditional giant robots of Japanese anime were portrayed as realistic war machines. The people who used these machines to fight in a futuristic space war were complex characters whose motivations and beliefs didn't break down into simple good and evil, and the story encompassed human drama and social commentary as well as thrilling robot battles.
With the release of Mobile Fighter G Gundam in 1994, the creators began introducing new worlds - parallel universes - with their own characters, histories, technologies, and calendar systems.
At present, six Gundam worlds have been featured in the animated stories - the original Universal Century, G Gundam's Future Century, Gundam Wing, Endless Waltz, and the upcoming Gundam X and Gundam Seed.
