So this book might literally be your grandfather's Gundam 0079 because it was released really close to the original run of Mobile Suit Gundam and written by Yoshiyuki Tomino himself, robbing me of claim to that cliche.

Nevertheless, reading this novel is a very different experience from the animated '79 Gundam experience. You can find out how in this episode.

It was really fun to record this episode as we fill in some of the gaps of Amuro's journey and the experience of newtypes.
