The anime starts in U.C. 0001, at the very beginning of human space colonization, with the Laplace Incident, a major event that influences the course of human history forever. The main story takes place in U.C. 0096, three years after the events of Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack and 27 years before the movie Mobile Suit Gundam F91.
em..the story so far is not very interesting when compared to Gundam 00. Characters look a bit classic.The Gundam Unicorn appearence is awesome with its transformation. I hope the story will be more interesting after this. Go gundam unicorn!
