The series is set in the year 2307 AD of the Gregorian calendar. During this time, fossil fuels became exhausted and the distribution of fuels became imbalanced. Humanity must rely on an array of solar power generation systems orbiting the Earth, and supported by three orbital elevators, each one pertaining to one of the three "major powers" on the planet.

Mobile Suit Gundam 00 follows four mobile suit pilots termed Gundam Meisters, sided with Celestial Being. The protagonist is 16-year old Setsuna F. Seiei, a quiet, taciturn young man who grew up in the Kurdish Republic and a Gundam Meister for two years. He pilots the GN-001 Gundam Exia, a high mobility mobile suit effective in melee combat. 

If the first quarter of Gundam 00 was more about introduction, the second quarter will be more about action. That’s reflected by the second opening sequence of Gundam 00, featuring The Brilliant Green’s Ash Like Snow. Sure, Setsuna ejecting into an orbital skydive for no apparent reason makes for an emo start, but the HD battle scenes make absolutely scrumptious eye candy. Hit series often get bigger budgets — and judging from the animation in its second opening, Gundam 00 is clearly a hit.

The rivalries for three of our four heroes are clearly defined in this opening: Allelujah versus Soma, Lockon versus Graham, and Setsuna versus Ali. That leaves out Tieria. Now who’s supposed to fight that cyberpathic transvestite protocol bitch? read more …
