Kidou Senshi Gundam SEED

Year 71, Cosmic Era. In the wake of the catastrophic battle of Yakin Due, a delicate peace now barely holds between the Earth Alliance and the Zaft Empire. As Cagalli and Athrun engage in crucial talks with Chairman Durandal to fortify this fragile ceasefire, a dangerous plot is brewing. Zaft terrorists, in league with Neo Roanoke, aim to reignite full-scale war between the two factions. Their plan includes infiltrating Zaft territory to steal multiple Gundam Mobile Suits. But their ambitions extend further—they are orchestrating a cataclysmic event designed to thrust Earth into chaos and bloodshed. The crew of the Minerva faces the monumental task of preventing this disaster. At stake is not only peace but also personal bonds, including the relationship between Athrun and Cagalli, as they find themselves in dire peril. Mobile Suit Gundam SEED was published in English by Del Rey from April 27, 2004, to August 30, 2005.
