help ∀ Gundam FAQ

Where does Turn A Gundam fit in the Gundam timeline?

Turn A Gundam is set in the Correct Century, far after earlier Gundam conflicts have faded into legend. The series uses that distance to connect multiple Gundam histories without functioning like a direct Universal Century sequel.

Who designed the Turn A Gundam mobile suit?

The Turn A's unusual mustached design was created by Syd Mead, the industrial designer famous for work on Blade Runner and Tron. That is why it looks so different from the RX-78-2 or Zeta Gundam.

What is the Moonrace conflict in Turn A Gundam?

The Moonrace are humans who have lived on the Moon while Earth societies regressed into a lower-tech era. Loran Cehack becomes central to the conflict when Dianna Counter's return to Earth triggers war.

Was Turn A Gundam made by the original Gundam creator?

Yes. Yoshiyuki Tomino directed Turn A Gundam for Sunrise, and the TV series aired in 1999 with 50 episodes.
