Mobile Suit Gundam UC is an anime series created by Bandai and Sunrise that aired from 2010 to 2014. Set in the Universal Century timeline of the Gundam franchise, the show follows the story of a young man named Banagher Links who becomes embroiled in a conflict between the Earth Federation and the Sleeves, a group of Zeon remnants seeking to revive their former glory.

The voice cast includes Troy Baker as the lead character Banagher Links, Yuri Lowenthal as his rival Full Frontal, and Keith Silverstein as the enigmatic Londo Bell officer Riddhe Marcenas.

The series takes place in the year UC 0096, three years after the events of Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack. The Earth Federation is still reeling from the aftermath of the conflict with the final remnants of the Principality of Zeon, and tensions are high between the two factions. The Sleeves, led by the mysterious Full Frontal, have acquired a powerful new Mobile Suit called the Unicorn Gundam, which has the potential to tip the balance of power in their favor.

Banagher Links is a teenager living on the colony of Industrial 7 when he suddenly finds himself caught up in the conflict between the Earth Federation and the Sleeves. He discovers that he is the pilot of a special Mobile Suit, the RX-0 Unicorn Gundam, and is thrust into a world of intrigue, betrayal, and war.

Throughout the series, Banagher must navigate the complex political landscape of the Universal Century as he fights against the Sleeves and their plot to take over the government of the Earth Federation. He is aided by the crew of the Londo Bell, a special forces unit tasked with neutralizing the Sleeves and their Mobile Suits, as well as the mysterious Audrey Burne, who has her own reasons for getting involved in the conflict.

At its core, Mobile Suit Gundam UC is a story about the human cost of war and the toll it takes on those caught in the middle. Banagher must struggle with his own conscience as he fights to protect his friends and loved ones, even as he realizes that their fates are inextricably linked to the fate of the larger conflict between the Earth Federation and the Sleeves. The series is full of action-packed battles and stunning Mobile Suit combat scenes, but it never loses sight of the deeper themes that underpin the Gundam franchise as a whole.

Throughout the show, we see the evolution of Banagher as a character, as he learns to cope with the harsh realities of war and the sacrifices that must be made to achieve peace. The emotional journey that he goes through is one of the highlights of the series and is sure to resonate with fans of the Gundam franchise.

Mobile Suit Gundam UC is a must-see for fans of the Gundam franchise and anime in general. With its high-stakes plot, complex characters, and stunning animation, it is a worthy addition to the iconic Universal Century timeline.
