Mobile Suit Gundam: Char of the Counterattack," which will be broadcast on December 17 (Sun.) at 19:00, is the first completely original theater version of the Gundam series, which was released in 1988. It depicts the final battle between Amuro Ray and his nemesis Char Aznable, which has continued since the first "Mobile Suit Gundam" film in the series.

Also, "Mobile Suit Gundam F91," which will be broadcast on December 24 (Sun.), is the second original theater version following "Char of Counterattack," in which Yoshiyuki Tomino, Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, and Kunio Okawara, the main staff of "Mobile Suit Gundam," came together for a long time to create a new Gundam saga. The film was 115 minutes long at the time of its theatrical release, but the "complete version," with about five minutes of new cuts added later, can be seen on DVD and other media. The story of the main character, Seabook, and his friends will be told in "Mobile Suit Crossbow Gundam" (Kadokawa Shoten, illustrated by Yuichi Hasegawa), which has changed from media to comic book form.
