  Gundam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gundam is the collective term for the Universal Century (UC) series like Mobile Suit Gundam and series in alternative timelines, such as Gundam Wing, made by Sunrise Inc..
Like many of the "mobile suits" appearing in the series, a Gundam is usually piloted from the torso area with a camera built into the head area transmitting to viewscreens in the cockpit, although some have been known to mount cockpits on other areas.
Gundam is the name or nickname of several mobile suits or mobile fighters, although some works such as G-Saviour and Mobile Suit Gundam: MS IGLOO do not have units named Gundams.

 Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gundam ZZ was originally conceived of as a second season of Zeta Gundam, but it was ultimately decided that the show should feature an all-new cast.
As such, this became the first of a number of Gundam series where a team of Gundam mobile suits fight alongside each other regularly.

 Gundam (various series) @ The Cartoon Scrapbook
Zeon quickly gains the upper hand, but the Earth Federation develops a mobile suit prototype of their own called "Gundam." The new prototype is to be shipped to Earth from its home on the space colony Side 7, but a surprise attack puts the mobile suit Gundam in the hands of the teenager Amuro Ray.
Each country sends a powerful mobile suit, called a Gundam, to Earth, and these units fight each other until the last one standing becomes the Gundam of Gundams, and earns his or her nation the sovereign rights to the Earth, the colonies, and all mankind.
Though the only Gundam program ever to be canceled before its planned end, this series was probably the best-realized vision of an alternate Gundam universe, a sort of Mad Max with mobile suits, in which a planet ruined by war and repeated colony drops is dominated by high-tech pirates who roam the land.

 ++ Anime Otaku Fridge :::: Mobile Suit Gundam Double Zeta (Gundam ZZ) ++
Gundam ZZ (read as "Double Zeta") is a direct sequel to Zeta Gundam; its events happen immediately after the 50th episode of the older series as it was intended to be a second season of the immensely popular Zeta.
Principal Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino stepped in in the middle of the series to rewrite the story, to make it fit in with his plans for the Gundam movie "Char's Counterattack." The improvement is noticeable, but it also means ZZ is inconsistent with its tone as it turns macabre under Tomino's pen.
To his credit, the latter half of ZZ lends itself to the genesis of some Gundam OAVs nicely ("0083 Stardust Memory" comes to mind in the desert) and introduces a nice conflict between Haman and Glemy Toto, a Neo Zeon officer with ulterior motives.

 Ultimate Mark: Data Evolution: Gundam Century
The "suit" in "mobile suit" is an acronym for "Space Utility Instruments Tactical." As this name suggests, the Zaku mobile suit was intended from the development stage to be an all-purpose machine.
Their mobile suit development was further advanced by combining areas in which the Federation Forces surpassed the Zeon forces, such as learning computers and composite armor, with Zeon know-how.
The Federation Forces' mobile suits were also distinguished by their use of semi-monocoque construction, which had the drawback of a higher structural weight than the frameless monocoque used by the Zeon forces.

For the few episodes that he's in ZZ he's a fool, a clown, a humorous distortion of his Zeta character.
None of the other new enemy characters are much better, Mashymre Cello is a dope and obsessed with Haman, Chara Soon is annoying and only there to show her cleavage, and Glemy Toto, for how important he will be, is a bumbling fool.

A lot of Gundam fans complain about how bad the show is; due to its start as a "kiddie pleaser," and later on the rewrites for the upcoming Char's Counterattack movie.
However, as Gundam's creator Yoshiyuki Tomino points out, the show had been meant to be an opposite of "Single Zeta's" darkness and gloom.

Ultimately, Gundam series like Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam and Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ found Amaro and Char working together, as it became obvious that there were more than two sides to the war.
Except for Quess (and, to some degree, Amuro, who's no less cranky and willful at 30 than he was at 16), few of the characters show much emotion until the film's climax, and the plot might feel plodding if it weren't cramming so much into so short a space.
Gundam addicts—the only viewers who are actually likely to follow all the myriad twists, in spite of the excellent Gundam primer Bandai included with the DVD—will find this beautifully packaged, heavily dramatic film an indispensable part of their collections.

Based on a dated newspaper shown in the last episode of the Gundam 0080 OVA series written by GAINAX's Hiroyuki Yamaga (Monday, January 14, 0080), the Universal Century can be pinpointed to begin in several specific years, including 2053, 2081, 2109, and 2149.
