Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX

Amate Yuzuriha is a high-schooler whose life in a quiet space colony is upended after she encounters Nyaan, a displaced war refugee with a fierce love of mobile suits. Drawn into Clan Battle, an underground sport where pilots settle scores and seek status by dueling in modified mobile suits, Amate confronts the clash between youthful ambition and the harsh realities of contested space. The show follows her coming-of-age in this illegal circuit, tracing friendships, rivalries, and the moral choices that come with taking a cockpit. Action scenes and courtroom-sized arenas alternate with quieter character moments, keeping the focus on people as much as machines. Rival pilots and older mentors complicate her choices, pulling her into risk at every turn, too.

Released in 2025, Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX was created by Yoji Enokido, Hajime Yatate, and Yoshiyuki Tomino, featuring voice leads Tomoyo Kurosawa, Yui Ishikawa, and Shimba Tsuchiya. Shinji Kawada and Seiichiro Yamashita also star, in a 2025 TV run domestically.

As of now the series has not claimed major industry awards, though it has been noted in animation circles for its fresh take on Gundam sport narratives and strong voice performances. It's also attracted attention in fan polls and online discussion for several standout episodes.
