Most characters of the series

Background Information:

Mobile Fighter G Gundam is a Japanese animated television series directed by Yasuhiro Imagawa (Giant Robo, Getter Robo Armageddon).
Created to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the franchise in 1994, G Gundam is the first of three Gundam series to take place in an alternate continuity from the original "Universal Century". The show takes place in "Future Century", where every four years a fighting tournament between the space colonies is held. Each country sends its representative Gundam Fighter to fight on Earth until one is left and the winning nation has earned the right to govern over the colonies for the next four years.

The events takes place in year 60 of the Future Century, during the 13th Gundam Fight. G Gundam follows Neo Japan's representative Domon Kasshu, who is in the fight as much to win as well as fulfill his own mission of tracking down his brother who had stolen a mysterious Gundam; the Devil Gundam (Dark Gundam in the American version) from the Neo-Japan government.

The series takes a wildly different turn from the rest of the franchise. It has a number of Shōnen elements to it, such characters possessing superhuman-speed and strength simply through martial arts training, and this can also be seen in the behavior of the main cast. Most of the Gundams in the series feature elements of super robots, such as heroic robot designs and voice activated special attacks, but there are some that still remain in real robot territory.

Standing in the Battledome:

G Gundam is a powerful verse. High tech and powerful Gundams are just enough to make the verse quite strong.
