Double Zeta Gundam

Introduction

The Titans have been defeated, and in the aftermath of the great civil war Hamaan Khan makes her move. As UC 0088 begins, her army of renegade Jions, who have returned to Earth inside the asteroid Axis, declare themselves the Neo Jion. Aiming to win the space colonies over to their cause, Hamaan disperses the Neo Jion fleet, sending each ship to woo the inhabitants of a different colony. One such ship is the cruiser Endora, under the command of young officer Mashma Serro, which has been dispatched to Side 1's Shangrila colony. By coincidence, this is where the AEUG flagship Aghama, battered and exhausted, limps into harbor.

Shangrila

The first colony constructed at Side 1, Shangrila is now a patchwork of scrapyards and slums. One of its inhabitants is 14-year-old Jude Ashita, who spends his weekends salvaging scrap metal. Jude watches the Aghama's arrival, then snares a drifting mobile suit ejection pod. Dragging the pod into the colony, he and his friends discover that its occupant is Titans pilot Yazzan Gable, who has been drifting in space since the defeat of the Titans. Yazzan regains consciousness and promptly forces Jude and his friends to help him against the Aghama and its crew. Yazzan leads the kids to Shangrila's dock, where he plans to capture the Zeta Gundam and the Aghama. Jude encounters the Zeta's former pilot, the now-comatose Camille Vidan, and shares a strange newtype bonding experience with him. He then swipes the Zeta himself, and begins a running battle with Yazzan's worker mobile suit. Despite his inexperience, Jude is able to wreck Yazzan's mobile suit, after which the AEUG recapture the Zeta. The Neo Jion cruiser Endora arrives and its captain, Mashma Serro, bribes the colony administration into letting the Endora dock at Shangrila. As the Endora docks, the Aghama moves into the colony interior and buries itself in junk. For the next few days, as Mashma and his underlings search the colony interior for the hidden Aghama, Jude keeps coming to the rescue, piloting the Zeta with increasing skill. Aghama captain Bright Noah asks Jude, his friends and his sister Lina to join the crew, and after some hesitation on Jude's part they accept. The Aghama leaves Shangrila to rendezvous with the supply ship La Vie En Rose (This ship also appears in Gundam 0083), with the Endora in hot pursuit. The vegetative Camille stays behind, and his loyal girlfriend Fa soon turns back to join him.

La Vie En Rose

Fending off continual attacks from Mashma and replacement captain Cyara Sun, Aghama reaches La Vie En Rose and takes delivery of Anaheim's latest mobile suit, the Double Zeta Gundam. Thanks to the Double Zeta's awesome firepower Jude is able to consistently repulse the enemy, but his sister Lina is soon lost in space and falls into the hands of the Neo Jion. Young officer Gremmi Toto takes the captive Lina under his wing, inexplicably deciding to educate and culture her. Gremmi already has another ten-year-old girl in his charge -- eccentric newtype Elpe Puru, the littlest Neo Jion pilot.

Axis

After being refitted with a powerful new cannon by the La Vie En Rose crew, the Aghama sets off to attack the asteroid Axis. Suspecting that his sister is held captive within the asteroid, Jude takes off to try and rescue Lina before the Aghama's attack. Sneaking inside the Axis, he runs into Hamaan herself -- not to mention Puru, who latches onto Jude as a surrogate brother. Though Jude fails to spring his sister, the Aghama's attack is fortunately ineffectual.

Dakar

Meanwhile, Hamaan has gathered her forces for a new operation. Since none of her followers have fared any better at winning over colonies than did Mashma, she now sets her sights on the Federation itself. The massed Neo Jion fleet is to occupy Dakar and force the hostage Federation government to hand over control of Side 3. Though the Aghama attempts to block the Neo Jion invasion, it turns out that the enemy's advance force has already captured the Federation capital. Undaunted, the Aghama descends to Earth and dispatches its "Gundam Team" on a trek through North Africa. The young mobile suit pilots, whose ranks now include Puru, make their way through the desert to Dakar. The Gundam Team, the Aghama and the Kalaba join forces for a brief raid on the occupied capital, during which Jude finally springs Lina, who is promptly blown up in battle.

Dublin

Hotfooting it out of Africa, the Aghama proceeds to the Federation's shadow headquarters in Dublin, Ireland. Here Bright meets with the top officials of the Federation, who blithely inform him that they've "made peace with Hamaan" and are in the process of signing over Side 3 to the Neo Jions. Hoping to expedite the process a bit, Hamaan executes a colony drop on Dublin as a show of force; the Federation brass flee, but can't be bothered to evacuate the civilian population. Springing into action, the AEUG and Kalaba manage to rescue most of Dublin's inhabitants before the colony impact. The Neo Jions deliver a nasty follow-up surprise, as the now-sinister Gremmi dispatches a doppelganger Puru against the Aghama. It is revealed that he has a small army of Puru clones in cold storage, and the rogue Puru who's joined the Aghama crew is completely expendable. The newly awakened Puru Two ruthlessly eliminates her twin sister.

Side 3

Taking the hint, the Federation wraps up the negotations, dissolving the Jion Republic and placing Side 3 in the hands of the Neo Jions. Satisfied, Hamaan and her forces leave Earth and head for Side 3 to begin rearming. Returning to space, the Aghama and its cadre of teen pilots are informed that the war is over. But when coincidence places Jude and his friends at the controls of the brand-new AEUG battleship Near Aghama, they set off into Side 3 to take on Hamaan, with Bright's blessing. Meanwhile, Hamaan has another challenge on her plate. The ambitious Gremmi, claiming that he is a genetically-engineered scion of Giren Zabi and thus just as legitimate a heir to the Zabi line as the puppet Minerva, launches a rebellion against Hamaan and splits the Neo Jion forces in two. Judging Hamaan to be the lesser of two evils, the Near Aghama and its crew enter the fray and join the battle against Gremmi and his followers. The Neo Jion civil war is brief but ferocious. Though his fleet is no match for Hamaan's, Gremmi takes control of Axis and hurls its detachable section, Mowsa, at Hamaan's stronghold, the colony Core 3 -- then follows up with the main body of Axis itself. Jude and his teammates take on Gremmi and the now-repentant Puru Two, killing the one and accidentally inflicting mortal wounds on the other. Gremmi's forces are routed, and Hamaan's fleet is reduced to a tiny handful. Now that the Neo Jions are a miniscule threat, the AEUG and Federal Forces finally decide to intervene, dispatching a fleet to round up Hamaan's remaining forces. Meanwhile, Jude and Hamaan square off for a last duel inside the drifting Mowsa; defeated, Hamaan kills herself rather than live in disgrace. With the battle over, the AEUG and Federal Forces arrive to take credit for the victory. They discover that Minerva has disappeared, leaving behind a lookalike decoy.

Conclusion

Disgusted by the cowardice and corruption of the adults, Jude and his former-teammate, now-girlfriend Roux Rouka join the crew of an energy transport ship and set off on the long voyage to Jupiter. Just before the ship sets off Jude is reunited with his sister Lina, who isn't actually dead after all. And on Earth, Fa and a recovering Camille frolic on the beach.
