Overview

Turn A Gundam is a Japanese animated television series that aired during 1999. The series is set in the Correct Century, a time period occurring two thousand years after a catastrophic war that devastated the planet. Earth has become largely uninhabitable as a result, forcing the majority of humanity to relocate to lunar colonies while the planet slowly recovers. The few remaining inhabitants on Earth struggle to survive in this post-apocalyptic environment. The series depicts the ongoing tensions between the space-dwelling colonists and Earth's survivors as they attempt to rebuild civilization. This Gundam series explores themes of environmental recovery, human adaptation, and the long-term consequences of warfare on planetary ecosystems. The show presents a unique timeline within the broader Gundam franchise, focusing on humanity's efforts to restore their home world while managing the social and political challenges of interplanetary civilization. The series examines how societies evolve when separated by extreme environmental circumstances and the complex relationships that develop between different human settlements.
