As Mobile Suit Gundam Seed continues, the struggle between the “Naturals” of the Earth Alliance Forces and the genetically enhanced “Coordinators” of ZAFT escalates. Although he’s a Coordinator, Kira Yamato has been fighting for the Naturals aboard the Archangel in a series of contests that pit him against his childhood friend, Athrun Zala of ZAFT. As the two teen-agers are ace mecha pilots, even major battles ultimately hinge on their man-to-man/Gundam-to-Gundam duels. Adding to the emotional complications are the loyalties Kira and Athrun feel towards their friends, both living and dead, and their affection for the rebellious princesses Cagalli and Flay. Anthrun’s ex-fiancee, singer Lacus Clyne, makes both young men realize the futility of the war they’re caught up in. When the Earth Alliance and ZAFT begin deploying atomic weapons, the need to end the conflict and establish peace becomes urgent. Kira, Cagalli, Athrun, and Lacus triumph over their violent superior officers in time to prevent a nuclear holocaust. The emotional struggles of the characters provide the setting for the many battles involving increasingly advanced mobile suits, which take place on the surface of the Earth, under water and, most spectacularly, in outer space. Gundam Seed delivers the blend of fantastic battles, splendidly designed robots, conflicted loyalties, and emotional entanglements that fans ofYoshiyuki Tomino?s Gundam universe love and expect. Episodes 21 through 50 were recut into the features Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: The Faraway Dawn (Movie 2) and Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: The Rumbling Sky (Movie 3).
