ABOUT GUNDAM THE ORIGIN V & VI

Gundam The Origin V & VI: Chronicle of the Loum Battlefield

The final two films chronicling the events that led to the start of Mobile Suit Gundam!

Synopsis: Universal Century 0079

Humanity has turned even space itself into a battlefield, and the Principality of Zeon forces advance after wiping out half the world’s population by carrying out Operation British (the colony drop). In response, the Earth Federation Forces mobilize their overwhelming fighting strength to regain the advantage.

The complex intrigues of the Zabi family… Sayla Mass, as she contends with the whims of fate… the veteran Zeon soldier Ramba Ral and his lover Hamon… Amuro and Fraw, leading peaceful lives at Side 7… a dark shadow falls across them all. And the Zeon ace Char Aznable, driven by revenge, goes into action as the “Battle of Loum” finally begins.

WHAT WAS PLANNED FOR THIS RELEASE?

The primary theme of this was make sure the set was in keeping with other Gundam Collector’s Edition releases of ours. So this set come packed in a rigid case, and inside that will be an amaray case to hold the Blu-ray disc. Additionally inside the rigid case you’ll find a 68-page art book that encompasses lots of art from both Gundam The Origin V & VI split over three section: Characters; Mecha and Gallery.

The Blu-ray disc includes both Gundam The Origin V: Clash at Loum and Gundam The Origin VI: Rise of the Red Comet with both English and Japanese viewing options. Also worth mentioning that there’s 2.0 and 5.1 audio for each language with both films. You’ll also find some promotional videos for the two films on the disc included as extras too.
