The film will focus on the young Char Aznable and how he earned his nickname, the Red Comet. In addition, we see the beginnings of the Federation's Project V weapons project and the eventual birth of the RX-78-2 Gundam, officially tying in back to the original Mobile Suit Gundam anime series.
Mobile Suit Gundam the Origin VI: Rise of the Red Comet is set to premiere on May 5th in Japan.
