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 Judo Ashita, who spends his weekends salvaging scrap metal. Judo watches the Agama'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 Judo and his friends to help him against the Agama and its crew.

Yazzan leads the kids to Shangrila's dock, where he plans to capture the Zeta Gundam and the Agama. Judo 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, Judo is able to wreck Yazzan's mobile suit, after which the AEUG recapture the Zeta.

The Neo Zeon cruiser Endora arrives and its captain, Mashma Serro, bribes the colony administration into letting the Endora dock at Shangrila. As the Endora docks, the Agama 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 Agama, Judo keeps coming to the rescue, piloting the Zeta with increasing skill. Agama captain Bright Noah asks Judo, his friends and his sister Lina to join the crew, and after some hesitation on Judo's part they accept. The Agama leaves Shangrila to rendezvous with the supply ship La Vie En Rose, 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, Agama 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 Judo is able to consistently repulse the enemy, but his sister Lina is soon lost in space and falls into the hands of the Neo Zeon. 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 Zeon pilot.

Axis

After being refitted with a powerful new cannon by the La Vie En Rose crew, the Agama sets off to attack the asteroid Axis. Suspecting that his sister is held captive within the asteroid, Judo takes off to try and rescue Lina before the Agama's attack. Sneaking inside the Axis, he runs into Hamaan herself - not to mention Puru, who latches onto Judo as a surrogate brother. Though Judo fails to spring his sister, the Agama'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 Zeon fleet is to occupy Dakar and force the hostage Federation government to hand over control of Side 3. Though the Agama attempts to block the Neo Zeon invasion, it turns out that the enemy's advance force has already captured the Federation capital.

Undaunted, the Agama 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 Agama and the Kalaba join forces for a brief raid on the occupied capital, during which Judo finally springs Lina - who is promptly blown up in battle.

Dublin

Hotfooting it out of Africa, the Agama 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 Zeons. 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 Zeons deliver a nasty follow-up surprise, as the now-sinister Gremmi dispatches a doppelganger Puru against the Agama. It is revealed that he has a small army of Puru clones in cold storage, and the rogue Puru who's joined the Agama 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 Zeon Republic and placing Side 3 in the hands of the Neo Zeons. Satisfied, Hamaan and her forces leave Earth and head for Side 3 to begin rearming. Returning to space, the Agama and its cadre of teen pilots are informed that the war is over. But when coincidence places Judo and his friends at the controls of the brand-new AEUG battleship Near Agama, 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 an heir to the Zabi line as the puppet Mineva, launches a rebellion against Hamaan and splits the Neo Zeon forces in two. Judging Hamaan to be the lesser of two evils, the Near Agama and its crew enter the fray and join the battle against Gremmi and his followers.

The Neo Zeon 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. Judo 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 Zeons are a miniscule threat, the AEUG and Federal Forces finally decide to intervene, dispatching a fleet to round up Hamaan's remaining forces. Meanwhile, Judo 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 Mineva has disappeared, leaving behind a lookalike decoy.

Conclusion

Disgusted by the cowardice and corruption of the adults, Judo 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 Judo 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.
