Three warlords, one giant laser cannon, and a psychic pilot having the worst week of his life.
Universal Century 0087, Char Aznable has now become the leader of the AEUG. Scirocco, the man from Jupiter, schemes to seize control of the Titans.

The war builds to a deadly endgame around the space colony Gryps 2, which has been converted into a giant laser cannon. What destiny awaits Kamille at the end of the conflict? This is the final part of the Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam feature trilogy, which features enhanced animation and theme songs by GACKT.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Tomino notoriously disliked the original Zeta ending so much that he rewrote Kamille's fate multiple times across different media, including having him recover in the novelization.
The 'New Translation' films were created partly to reconcile Zeta with Tomino's later Gundam works, retroactively making Char's eventual villainy in Char's Counterattack feel more inevitable.
