Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn
Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn streams on Hulu and Netflix — the OVA saga widely hailed as the most beautiful Gundam ever animated. It's a love letter to the Universal Century, delivering movie-grade spectacle and the franchise's most breathtaking mobile-suit battles.
About
It's U.C. 0096, and the not-yet-finished colony Industrial 7 drifts quietly at a Lagrange point — until a boy named Banagher Links, who grew up never knowing his father, meets a mysterious girl who stowed away aboard a ship bound there. She's tangled up in a secret that could rewrite the balance of power: Laplace's Box, a truth from the dawn of the Universal Century that certain forces will do anything to bury. When Banagher ends up bonded to the white mobile suit Unicorn, he's swept into that conflict, caught between old enemies still fighting the wars of decades past. It's a story about inherited history — the sins and hopes one generation hands the next — told at operatic scale.

Seasons & Watch Order
Unicorn sits deep in the Universal Century timeline, decades after the original series and Char's Counterattack. It's watchable on its own strength as spectacle, but it rewards viewers who know the classic UC saga — the ideal path is 0079 first, this later.
