In case I haven't mentioned this already, I'm a big Gundam fan. Unlike some of the kiddie mecha animes, most Gundam series have compelling story lines with great character development behind the fighting robots, and the complexity of the Gundam universe is just fascinatingly amazing(think of it as the anime counterpart of Star Wars or Star Trek).

The highly anticipated Gundam SEED ONA is finally out! Though I'm a bigger fan of the Universal Century calendar series, but I must say the two Gundam SEED series are very nicely done overall(and the first one was better), so I'm expecting the same from this ONA.

The story takes place at the beginning of Gundam SEED Destiny, when Junius Seven crashed onto earth. It's a side story of Gundam SEED, so it does not involve any of the original characters from Gundam SEED and Gundam SEED Destiny.

P.S. The attached song is the TV sized version of the ending theme song, Hoshi no Tobira(星の扉, or "Door of the Stars"), by Negishi Satori(根岸さとり). The single will be released in August.

SPOILER WARNING

The full version of the ending of Gundam Stargazer(I posted the TV version earlier here).

Thought it's a really nice song.
