## Synopsis

Mobile Suit Gundam 00 (2007-2009) is a Japanese animated science fiction mecha series created for MBS and TBS, produced by Sunrise. Set in the year 2307, it follows Celestial Being, a private armed organization whose members pilot Gundam mobile suits to attack the powers that control a global solar energy network built on orbital elevators. Its principal pilots include Setsuna F. Seiei, voiced by Mamoru Miyano, Lockon Stratos, voiced by Shin-ichiro Miki, and Allelujah Haptism, voiced by Hiroyuki Yoshino, while Sumeragi Lee Noriega, voiced by Yoko Honna, guides the organization's strategy. The engine of the story is an idealistic crusade against endless war, pitting small rebel squads against the armies and political alliances that profit from conflict. Each episode mixes real robot battles with political maneuvering, and across two seasons and fifty episodes the story builds into a serialized conflict saga. Its tone is earnest, tense and often grim, with intense combat, moral dilemmas about violence and child soldiers, and a sense of tragedy beneath the spectacle. Fans of the original Mobile Suit Gundam, Code Geass and Aldnoah.Zero will find resonance in its blend of mecha battles and geopolitical drama.
