Mobile Suit Gundam: From Within the Depths

"Look to the stars above, that always watches over you, ever-present. Though hidden when viewed in the day's light, they are always there. In darkness, their guidance grows stronger. Look to the stars above, and with the power you wield, find the path to tomorrow."

Mobile Suit Gundam: Believe in the Stars is an installment of the Gundam metasaga, and the third to take place in the Rebirth Century, three years after the Pavement conflict of RC 211 in Mobile Suit Gundam: Light of the Earth, chronicling the growing conflict between the nations of Earth and the independent colonies in space that wish to reclaim Earth's soil for their own. The series sees the eventual formation of the timeline's resident Earth Federation in the wake of new war and the dawning of newly-evolved humans following the tradition of the Gundam series; the newly-discovered Electropaths within the colonies.

The series features two sides, one following the recovered Murray Kaido as he fights alongside new characters as a member of the Crusaders, a mysterious group allegedly trying to end all wars, and the other following Elise Groavel, as she fights alongside returning characters as a pilot for the United Nationalities of Oceania, and, eventually, the Earth Federation Forces. The series is the final instalment within the timeline, concluding the Rebirth Century saga.

Story
In the February of RC 215, months after the disappearance of the fake Murray Kaido along with the Gaia Replicate, the defeat of several Sovereign European Alliance extremist groups by the UNO ship Insignia starts to take toll, with political tension starting to arise again between the two superpowers, UNO and SEA. Despite best efforts by heir of SEA's royal house, Sylvia Drei Unita, to quell conflict and propose a treaty between the two parties, the tension reaches its peak when Durant Reeves, of SEA Special Forces, manages to foil an attempt to assasinate Sylvia by an unknown group, however getting severely injured in the process. Before a meaningless war could break out, the intervention of Murray Kaido and a mysterious group calling themselves the Crusaders reveals the part played in the assasination attempt by the governing forces of the colonies in space, making evident their intent to conquer Earth.

Though unwilling, the two sides of Earth find that the need to seek strength in one another is dire, if they hope to resist the colonies, branding themselves the Terrestrial army, and its allies, among them Aeterna Sedes, the conglomerate Solar Equities Financing, and, most unexpectedly, Ace Santiago, a former ally of SEA and the ship Equilibrium. With the shadow of the Crusaders looming overhead with unknown goals, Elise Groavel heads out into the final frontier aboard the Insignia, unknowing of what to come.

As the three-way conflict grows, humanity's tale nears its conclusion.
