The story
In the Year F.C. (Future Century) 60, much of mankind inhabits space colonies which orbit the Earth. Dominance over the colonies is decided once every four years by a large tournament in which each nation sends a single representative to fight the others with a giant robot called a Gundam. Domon Kashuu is selected to represent Neo-Japan in one of these tournaments, but he fights less to ensure his nation's victory than to find his brother, who has been blamed for the deaths of Domon's parents and the disappearance of a very dangerous weapon, the Devil Gundam (Dark Gundam).
Mobile Fighter G Gundam recap
In the Future Century era, most of humanity lives in space colonies, and every four years each nation's colony sends a giant robot to a Gundam Fight on the ruined Earth, with the winning nation ruling the colonies. Domon Kasshu, the fighter for Neo Japan, pilots the Shining Gundam with his mechanic and childhood friend Rain Mikamura. Domon is secretly hunting his brother Kyoji, who is blamed for stealing the Devil Gundam, a machine that grows and spreads on its own. Domon makes rivals and friends among the other fighters, who form the Shuffle Alliance, and learns that his own revered teacher, Master Asia, is working with the Devil Gundam. A masked fighter, Schwarz Bruder, trains him for the final rounds, and Domon upgrades to the God Gundam. He finally learns the truth about Kyoji and has to destroy the Devil Gundam with his brother inside.
