 Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam Limited Edition Box Set DVD Review.  DVD VISION JAPAN (DVD VISION)
Zeta Gundam is a relatively old series, originally airing way back in 1985, so as expected the overall look of the show is old.

Zeta Gundam adds on to the initial story started in Mobile Suit Gundam, and although familiar faces like Char Aznable and Amuro Rei make return appearances, a new hero in the form of Kamille Bidan is introduced as well as a new conflict.
