Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack

Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack (1988) — watch online on iFILM — is the theatrical finale of the Universal Century saga, directed by Yoshiyuki Tomino. Set in UC 0093, fourteen years on from the One Year War, Char Aznable returns from self-imposed exile commanding a revived Neo-Zeon. His objective: redirect the asteroid Axis onto Earth and make the planet unlivable, forcing humanity into space.

Amuro Ray and the Londo Bell fleet move to stop him. This is the long-deferred final confrontation between two pilots who have circled each other since the original 1979 TV series — Tomino doesn't let either of them off cleanly. Voice cast: Tōru Furuya as Amuro, Shuichi Ikeda as Char. Rewarding for Universal Century veterans who know the history these two carry; a difficult entry point for newcomers.
