In Char's Counterattack, the conflict between the Earth Federation and the remnants of the Zeon forces has reached a new level of intensity. Char Aznable, the former ace pilot of the Zeon movement, has returned to space with a new plan to achieve his ultimate goal of creating a new world order that favors space colonies over Earth.
To achieve this end, Char has launched a new movement called the Neo-Zeon, and has acquired a powerful new weapon known as Axis, which is a massive space fortress with the ability to destroy entire fleets of mobile suit forces.
The Earth Federation responds to Char's threat by forming a new elite unit called Londo Bell, which is charged with stopping Char and his forces at all costs. The unit is led by Amuro Ray, the legendary pilot of the original Gundam, and also includes the talented young pilot, Quess Paraya.
As the two sides clash in a series of epic space battles, it becomes clear that the fate of humanity hangs in the balance. Can Londo Bell stop Char and his forces before it's too late? Will Char's plan to force Earth's inhabitants into space succeed? The answers to these questions can only be found in the thrilling and action-packed Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack.
