  1. GUNDAM RECONGUISTA IN G
  2. Also known as G-Reco
  3.  
  4. Director: Tomino
  5. Mechanical Design: Akira Yasuda, Kimitoshi Yamane, Ippei Gyobu
  6.  
  7. ---What is G-Reco?---
  8. Who's making it:
  9. Gundam Reconguista in G is the thirteenth Sunrise Gundam series. It's headed by Yoshiyuki Tomino who originally started the franchise, and began development in 2007. G-Reco isn't just a war drama, but features themes of love, romance, exploration and adventure. It airs in a later timeslot but the director would like "kids" (including young adults who watch late night anime)to watch it, and said in an interview that his usual fans were too old to get it. However his staffer Ogata later said that he was just being tsundere. Tomino is notorious for making silly, inflammatory statements to raise publicity. Read Gundam Sousei the manga if you want to get inside the bald bastard's head.
  10.  
  11. When is it set:
  12. G-Reco is set in the Regild Century, year 1014. This timeline takes place after the end of the Universal Century, the timeline Gundam started with, from the first series to Victory Gundam and G-Savior. Regild Century still takes place before Turn-A's Correct Century occurs. In our language, the RC is thousands of years in the far future.
  13.  
  14. What is the world like:
  15. The world of RC 1014 is one of recovery. After the Universal Century concluded with a series of violent space wars, Earth was left wracked by starvation and ecological collapse. A similar level of destruction occurred in orbit and the colonies that once surrounded the planet have gone. Having ridden out this nightmare, the people of Earth clustered around an area in the Amazon (the last green place on the planet at the time) and construct the Capital Tower, a massive space elevator. Around this structure a religion emerges, where energy-carrying Photon Batteries come down from space and power society. This is SU-Cordism.
  16.  
  17. What is SU-Cordism:
  18. SU-Cord, short for Space Umbilical Cord, is a religion built around the idea that the Capital Tower administers batteries to guide humanity and forbids unchecked technological growth and scientific advancement. The reason behind this is to prevent the mistakes of the past and the proliferation of dangerous weaponry like Mobile Suits. SU-Cord is also used as a swear by SU-Cordists.
  19.  
  20. Who are the factions:
  21. Capital Territory- The people who make up the worshippers of the Capital Tower, covering the top of the South American Continet. They have a large amount of wealth and power thanks to their status of controlling the supply of Photon Batteries in the world. The Capital Tower is defended by the Capital Guard until recently.
  22. Ameria- A powerful nation in the Americas. Recently began building up their military and violating the taboos on research and development. Currently trying to usurp the Capital Territory's control and energy monopoly. Engaged in a land war with Gondwan.
  23. Gondwan- A nation in Europe. Allied with the Capital Territory, at war with Ameria. Are also secretly violating the taboos and built a spaceship.
  24. Izanel- The nation nearest to the Capital Territory. Seem to be happy under the Capital Territory's boot for now.
  25. Towasanga- A mythical colony located at the top of the Capital Tower in space. Worshipped by the SU-Cordists as a "holy land" and is the source of the Photon Batteries. Believed to be the origin of the G-Self and the Rose of Hermes Blueprints. Recent astronomical observations have revealed serious industrial buildup on the moon's surface and in orbit.
  26.  
  27. What are the G-Self and the Rose of Hermes blueprints:
  28. About a week before the first episode, a mysterious mobile suit comes down from the sky. Piloted by a dark-skinned girl who's been unable to shed any light on it, the G-Self is a highly-advanced weapon that seems to have a will of its own. Only able to be piloted by three individuals so far, the G-Self is compatible with equipment produced from the Rose of Hermes blueprints. These blueprints were received by both Ameria and the Capital Territory's research division, and have resulted in incredible technological advancements. It is believed that the blueprints originate from Towasanga. Products of the Rose of Hermes are known as G-Types.
  29.  
  30. ---History and Current Events---
  31. As of ep 10:
  32.  
  33. >Before the series began, Ameria and Gondwan began to expand their territory, eventually coming to blows. They were held back in both industry and warfare by their dependence on Photon Batteries from the Capital Territory.
  34. >At some point, Ameria became aware via telescopic observation that the Moon was becoming built up with new satellites and structure in orbit and on the surface. They became panicked about a lunar invasion and began developing new mobile suits and a spaceship, violating SU-Cordist taboos.
  35.  
  36. >Because of this, the Capital Territory and Ameria called the Mettabal Conference, and during this time the knowledge of Towasanga, a space colony on the far side of the moon, became known. During this conference, the construction of Ameria's big new space warship, the Nick Space, was cancelled and dismantled, but the ship was secretly constructed anyway as the Megafauna.
  37.  
  38. >After the conference, the Amerians gained access to the Rose of Hermes blueprints and began a secret operation using the Megafauna, disguised as a pirate vessel, to infiltrate the Capital Territory, steal Photon Batteries, test new weapons technology and pick up G-Type equipment from the Carribean Ocean Laboratory, a facility allied with them.
  39.  
  40. >Using the existence of the Megafauna as a trigger, a faction within the Capital Territory composed of the Research Division, Prime Minister's office, and some parts of the Capital Guard form a new military force known as the Capital Army. The Capital Army itself proceeds to break the taboos and bring out powerful forbidden weaponry.
  41.  
  42. >At the same time, the Amerian space fleet, now convinced of the space threat thanks to the arrival of the G-Self and the Army's escalation, has sortied their own ships into orbit with the goal of seizing the Capital Tower as a staging ground against Towasanga. Their intelligence indicates that the true reason for the formation of the Capital Army is also to check Towasanga's growth. Both the Capital Army and the Amerian fleet are converging in space for a confrontation despite attempts by both side's representatives to halt a showdown.
