Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn

I just finished watching the first episode of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn, the latest series of the Gundam franchise. It was a long episode. Almost an hour long. Like most of the Gundam stories, it's all about war.

The story takes place after the events of Mobile Suit Gundam and before Mobile Suit Gundam F91. That goes without saying that all three belong to the same timeline. Yes, there are NewTypes, Funnels, the Zeon, etc. The main protagonist is a young man named Banagher Links, and pilots the Unicorn Gundam (RX-0 Unicorn).

What's unique about the Unicorn is that it's pure white, unlike the other main Gundams with white, blue, red, and yellow schemes. The Unicorn, however, displays a a yellow and bit of red glow when it enters its NT-D mode (something like the Trans-Am mode in Gundam 00). Even with its plain colors, the MS looks awesome.

I hope the Gundam fans enjoy watching the series as much as I did (at least for the first episode).
