Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga)	comment	Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin is a manga adaptation of the original Mobile Suit Gundam, written and illustrated by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko, character designer and animation director of the original series as well as character designer for Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, Mobile Suit Gundam F91 and Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn (which he also illustrated the first three volumes of original novels).The series is the third of its kind and follows many of its plot elements while expanding on those elements and adding unique elements of its own. The plot is an alternate-retelling of the original series and is as follows:The series follows Ordinary High-School Student Amuro Ray, opening in the midst of a stalemate in the war between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon. Though the Earth Federation has (or, rather, had) superior numbers and resources, the Zeon military has annihilated much of the Federation's population with chemical weapons, decimated their fleet with their new mobile suit technology, nearly ended the war in a stroke with a Colony Drop, and follow up by invading Earth.While fighting a losing battle on Earth, the Federation stepped up its R&D program to develop its own mobile suits, resulting in the Super Prototype "Gundam". While doing final tests on the Gundam in a remote space colony, they are attacked by a small Zeon force led by Char Aznable. Amuro ends up Falling into the Cockpit in order to save the colony, and from there is pulled into the war between the Earth Federation and the Principality of Zeon. But, of course, things aren't as simple as they appear to be...The manga itself was adapted into a series for theatrical release. It is a prequel covering the manga's flashbacks to Char and Sayla's childhood and the rise of Zeon. It premiered in March 2015. As part of a deal between Sunrise and Right Stuf, it was given an American release by the latter with an English dub recorded by NYAV Post. As part of the Gundam franchise's 40th anniversary, the OVA series was recut into a television series entitled Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin - Advent of the Red Comet, similar to how Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn was recut into Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn - Re:0096. This was given a North American television airing on Toonami's lineup starting July 6, 2019.An original theatrical movie in the Origin continuity with Yas at the helm, Cucuruz Doan's Island, was released in 2022.In addition, it spawned at least three spin-off side stories set both before and after the main storyline: "Casval 0057" (or "Birth"), about Zeon Zum Daikun hiding from Federation authorities while his son was born. "Artesia 0083'', which concerns Sayla's coming to terms with her Zeon heritage after the war, as well as Kai Shiden finding a direction in life. "Amuro 0082" Amuro reunites with Fraw, Hayato, and the kids in Japan while Zeon assassins try to avenge M'Quve.In the United States, the manga was previously available from Viz, who released part of it in twelve collections in the American comic book format, following the Japanese tankobon editions (small size, few color pages, and printed on newsprint). Unfortunately, these editions cost double the standard price for about half the content and are now out-of-print. More fortunately, Vertical Inc have picked it up and released the entire series, retranslated, in a Limited Edition hardback format based on the Japanese aizoban editions (which are over-sized, have more color pages and are printed on high-quality gloss paper). All twelve volumes have been released, with the three side stories included in the final volume.Now includes its own character page.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_113480b7	comment	Canon Foreigner: The White Base has a much larger crew than in the original version, necessitating Yasuhiko to invent a large cast of Mauve Shirt characters from whole cloth, most of whom end up dead by the end. There are also many on the Zeon side (as to be expected, given the greater focus on them), including Sgt. Ash and his squad, who join Denham and Gene in the initial raid on Side 7 and General Garcia who leads the attack on Jaburo and replaces Kycilia and M'Quve as the pilot of the Adzam.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_121b3725	comment	Age Lift: Mirai is aged up by four years to facilitate a scene where she gets to briefly see young Char and Sayla while working as an intern under her father, who's the owner of the Texas colony and a friend of Don Massnote making her 22 in the main story as opposed to 18 as in the classic series. Interestingly, this would make her two or three years older than Captain Bright, assuming everybody else's ages remain consistent, which puts a slightly different spin on their relationship. Weirdly happens to Crowley Hamon within the manga itself. In a flashback to Zeon Deikun and Astraia's first meeting she appears to be in her early teens but looks much younger in the prequel chapter depicting Char's birth.

An inspiring leader fills his people with hope for the future and promises a new era of space exploration but in private is far more warlike than he lets on and is plagued by health problems and unstable relationships with women. This leader dies under suspicious circumstances, allowing his far more pragmatic second in command to take power, but even though he may have had the best of intentions the nation is still dragged into an unwinnable war that will have terrible consequences lasting for generations.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_20e0d3e8	type	Tanks for Nothing
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_20e0d3e8	comment	Tanks for Nothing: Downplayed with the Guntank. It was the first of the mobile weapons to be mass produced, and though it sees some victories, its flaws really show when MS development moves into full swing. The Guntank is more similar to a vehicle rather than a conventional Mobile Suit, which is fitting, because it's essentially just an upgraded Federation MBT. Though it's got heavy armor, heavy firepower, and all-terrain treads, these qualities become decreasingly useful as MS technology advances. Conventional Mobile Suits can move and fly far more easily than the Guntank; its solid armor cannot protect it from beam weaponry, which becomes increasingly commonplace as the war progresses; and it has no opposable manipulators or means to defend itself in close-quarters combat. Its main positive, firepower, is best for long range fighting and destroying large stationary targets, roles with limited demand as well as stiff competition from battleships' mega-particle cannons. This Looks Like a Job for Aquaman: After collecting dust for several volumes due to the more-capable GMs and second-model Guncannons rendering it obsolete, the Guntank is brought out by Sleggar during the battle on Texas Colony to accommodate Sayla, who's familiar with the terrain, at a time when the White Base is low on MS and pilots. When Challia Bull's Braw Bow takes out one of the two remaining Guncannons, and the Gundam is incapacitated by Char's Gelgoog, Sleggar takes center stage in the Guntank and makes use of its armor, firepower, and treads to handily take out the Zaku squad that's defending their objective.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_20f689e9	type	Adaptational Villainy
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_20f689e9	comment	Adaptational Villainy: Many characters are far nastier in this version of the Universal Century. Kycilia goes from a cold, calculating commander who nonetheless wants what's best for her nation and loves her father to a Manipulative Bitch who'll do anything to get on top, including manipulating Gihren into killing Degwin for her and then killing him to "avenge" their father. She is also responsible for the assassination of her own brother Saslo, the assassination of Jimba Ral and the attempted assassinations of Char and Sayla. In her second attempt on Char's life, Kycilia arranges to to have an entire passenger ship Char is supposedly riding in destroyed. She also helps break Revil out of prison knowing that he will torpedo the Federation and Zeon peace talks and prolong the One Year War. Char also gets it bad. Not only is his smugness cranked way up, but he also has far more morally questionable deeds under his belt than just trying to kill our heroes and betraying his leaders due to a family vendetta. Among other things, he sends the real Char Aznable to his death and steals his identity, manipulates a bunch of poor Amazon natives into helping him with promises that Zeon won't infringe on their tribal ways like the Federation even as his fellow Zeon soldiers try to mold them into guerrillas and may have ultimately caused the One Year War. And he smokes! But then, we are talking about a guy who eventually tried to blow up the Earth, here. The OVA adds setting up his former roommate (and original Char's friend) to die in a captured tank during the Dawn Uprising after the roommate figured out his true identity. Char's adoptive father figure, Jimba Ral, is also a much nastier character than he was in the original. In the TV series what little information we get on him comes from Sayla's memories of a kindly old man who looked after her family in its hour of need. In Origin, he was a borderline-abusive Conspiracy Theorist who wouldn't stop ranting about the Zabi family's complicity in Zeon Deikun's death and deliberately molds Char into a Tyke Bomb to use against them, whom Sayla resents for stealing her and her brother's childhoods by pushing his vendetta on them when she just wanted to get on with her life. On the other hand, this version of him never actually kills anybody. In the original timeline he may or may not have been responsible for the car bomb that killed Saslo Zabi, whereas in Origin it's another of Kycilia's schemes. The flashback arc has Zeon Deikun himself going from the Timothy Leary-inspired New-Age Retro Hippie he was described as in the original's background materials to an unstable, raving lunatic who wanted to wage war against Earth (though he most likely meant "war" in an ideological sense, since Degwin explicitly said that Deikun would never wish for a war with the Federation). It's also suggested that he married his first invalid wife for her financial and political connections only to abandon her the moment a pretty face came along. Even Garma and Dozle, the two most sympathetic Zabis in canon are given a few additional Kick the Dog moments. Though they're still more heroic than either Kycilia or Gihren. The Federation gets a turn in the third OVA episode during the lead-up to the Dawn Uprising. The Uprising was triggered by unrest after severe damage to a Zeon agricultural block led to food shortages. In the OVA, a Federation cruiser's arrogant refusal to yield the right-of-way to an outgoing freighter caused a collision that sent the cruiser careening into the block instead of negligence at a meteor monitoring station allowing a stray meteor to hit it. Federation troops are also shown violently putting down protests calling for independence, which they never did in the manga. The real Char Aznable is at first present as a decent enough guy. However, he quickly becomes a firm and fanatical believer in Zeon and the Zabi family. He eventually volunteers to join the Zeon military, and even openly wishes to fight in a war against the Federation in a few years, causing his pacifist parents to disown him. Char's rabid Zeon patriotism is also probably what helps motivate Casval/Edouard to arrange the real Char's death and steal his identity.

A major part of Garma's character is a need to prove that he earned his rank and perks, rather than just getting them because he's a Zabi (Whether he actually has is up for debate). Char uses this to maneuver him into the battle where he dies. In comparison, Dozle is painfully aware of how his position is thanks to this. Nonetheless, he succeeds in more than earning his rank and credentials, though not simply because he's a Zabi.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: During the Ramba Ral saga, Kai's Guncannon gets destroyed and replaced with the "Cannon Zaku", a captured Zaku with its head replaced with the Guncannon's, referencing the "Zeta Zaku" from Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ. The Guncannon First Type's manipulators have three fingers, just like the Zanny, a mobile suit from the late '90s PC game Gundam Tactics: Mobility Fleet 0079. Both were the Federation's first attempt at making a mobile suit in their respective continuity, and both were only armed with ranged weapons. The computer interfaces used by the Federation in the OVA series are based on the ones seen in Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn. The Side 6 emblem at the front of Cameron Bloom's shuttle is the same one from Mobile Suit Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket. Zeon's Weasel armored vehicle from Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team appears in the manga, even engaging in a Car Chase Shoot-Out with Amuro when he escaped from Rosarito. The Gundam's new optional cannon is based on one of the spring-loaded missile launchers that came with the original 1979 die-cast action figure. The third opening to the TV adaptation of the OVA uses Beyond The Time as its song and drops several call forwards to the original 1979 series and Char's Counterattack, especially at its chorus. Furthermore, one segment of the animation sees footage of Char's Zaku II in one of the 3D battles rotoscoped to mimic the old artstyle of the original show.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_273af360	comment	The Stations of the Canon: The manga goes out of its way to include all the iconic scenes and lines from the original series, despite the changes in circumstances and contexts it introduced. For example, the duel in Gibraltar seems to have been added specifically to include Char's "You've gotten even better, Gundam!" line, since Amuro wasn't in the Gundam during their fight in Jaburo. This gets to the point where Sayla leads a pro-Deikun rebellion during the Battle of A Baoa Qu, but it ends up having zero change on the outcome of the story.

It also had a completely exposed and open cockpit, leaving the pilot vulnerable to enemy fire.

While the Adzam and Gyan are kept in the series, the beam lance, the Gundam Hammer, and the G-Armor parts are all cut out. The latter is replaced with the core booster from the movies. During the initial Mobile Worker test, the Zeon Scientists put together an Evil Knockoff of the Guntank with a similar design sans the head. This Zeon built Guntank is removed from the OVA and replaced with a conventional one who's animation model is the same as the standard build. Garma's customized, head-vulcan equipped Zaku II from the MSV series is nowhere in sight when he participates in the partisan mop-up operations in the early days of the war. Instead, he commands a squad of normal Zakus from a Gallop class landship.

If the Zabi family really did assassinate Zeon Deikun, it was probably the best thing they could have done for the nation, even with all the political instability it brought on. Deikun wanted to declare war on the Federation, a war the colony defense force as it existed at the time, when proper mobile suits had yet to be invented, was in no way prepared to fight. By postponing the war, Deikun's death saved Side 3 from a massive Curb-Stomp Battle, while the One Year War as it actually played out, though hideously destructive to almost everybody else, ended with surprisingly little damage to the Zeon home colonies.

Likewise, Dozle Zabi's reputation as A Father to His Men is further emphasized, showing how sympathetic he was even before the One Year War.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_450c5a85	comment	Alternate Continuity: While the series follows the anime's plot and is set in the Universal Century, there are enough changes and unique differences to the original canon that it could be considered an alternate continuity. However, due to its Non-Indicative Name, and the fact that the OVA adaptation only covers the backstory portion of the manga, it is often mistaken for a prequel to the original Mobile Suit Gundam. In The Origin, the Federation was producing Guntanks and, eventually, Guncannons before the outbreak of the One-Year War (designated as "Early Types" to differentiate them from the "Project V" versions). In the the original anime, the Federation didn't have any mobile suits whatsoever until the development of the Gundam. Another change is that the Early-Type Guncannons were developed by Anaheim Eletronics. In the original Universal Century, Anaheim wouldn't enter the Mobile Suit business until they bought out Zeon's MS manufacturers after the One Year War.

When paired with Char's piloting skills, it has three times the speed of a regular Zaku II. The Black Tri-Stars and Ramba Ral also have their own personal colors for their mobile suits, though the Tri-Stars use a deep blue color scheme at first and only adopt their iconic black, purple, and gray color scheme after switching to Zaku II High Mobility Type, a reference to Mobile Suit Variations. Char's Musai-class light cruiser, the Falmer, has a slightly different bridge design compared to the regular Musai. No reason was given for this in the original series, but in Origin, it's revealed that it was an improved ship designed for special operations, given to Char by Dozle for his mission to investigate Operation V. Dozle gets a unique flagship type Musai called Valkyrie, which is bigger than the standard version and has the firepower to match. Sleggar pilots a GM with a paint scheme that resembles the Gundam.

In the anime, the ship basically hops from place to place on a rather vague course, whereas in the manga the White Base makes a clear journey from Los Angeles (where they land and where Garma Zabi is based) to Brazil (where Jaburo is located). Yasuhiko also switches certain events around to fit the new story, such as Operation Odessa taking place after the White Base reaches Jaburo, and Amuro encountering his mother before the White Base crew defeat Garma Zabi in battle.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_5e782d0c	comment	Super Prototype: Downplayed compared to the original — only the Gundam itself is a prototype in this version, while the Guncannon is a previous Federation attempt at fielding mobile weapons (failed because, while excellent at attacking ships and supporting infantry, it is pathetic at fighting other mobile suits, while even the Zaku I can both outfight it and perform reasonably well in other missions) and the Guntank is a tank (or possibly a self-propelled artillery vehicle) with a humanoid torso, and both were already mass-produced and used in the field (with the Guntank's deployment preceding the development of mobile suits by years). Guntank and Guncannon are initially not even given the "Mobile Suit" moniker and are instead labeled as "mobile weapons", and Tem Ray, who developed the latter in suboptimal terrestrial conditions, lamented that the Guncannon did not meet Dr. Minovsky's vision of what a Mobile Suit should be. Inverted by the Guncannon, in fact. In the Jaburo arc, the Federation rolls out an entirely new line of Guncannons, the RX-77-02, which are much sleeker and more humanoid than the unwieldy, hunchbacked RX-77-01 version we've seen up to this point. Specifically, they're the version from the original series.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_736d791f	type	Adaptational Badass
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_736d791f	comment	Adaptational Badass: The role of Sayla Mass is expanded from supporting character to that of main heroine, on an equal paring with Amuro. As a result of the events in the Prequel Volumes (5, 6, and 7), Sayla was forced to grow up fast and fend for herself, and as a result is more active, aggressive, and adept in combat by the time the beginning events of Side 7 occurs. During the events of The Origin, Sayla headshots bad guys, heel kicks Cozun Graham in the jaw, mows down Zeon infantry fighting vehicles with a car mounted machine gun, shoots down countless Zeon mobile suits including killing Newtype Corps pilot Simus Al Bakharov, pilots her own customized GM Mobile Suit, and using her real name Artesia Som Deikun, rallies Zeon soldiers and leads them in a mutiny against Kycilia Zabi during the Battle of A Boa Qu. Mayor Eschoenbach goes from an impotently resentful paper tiger whom Garma keeps around because he can keep the civilians in line to the leader of an underground guerrilla resistance that actually gets into a shooting war with Garma's forces. Zenna goes from being just Dozle Zabi's wife and mother of Mineva to being a cadet officer who participates in Garma's uprising who becomes Dozle's wife. The GM's are quite a lot more powerful this time around. The Jaburo defense is successful in both the original and The Origin but in the original, in spite of it being the GM's debut, they contribute very little onscreen save for one being killed by Char. The Origin has their presence be a grand unveiling and they're the primary reason for the Federations victory as they outmaneuver and outperform the attacking Zeon. Even the GM killed by Char has an additional scene where it confronts and destroys an Acguy on its own. Slegger, Sayla, and even Amuro briefly, all pilot the suit, allowing it to see more action. Side 7's defenders are also much more skilled in this version. In the original Denham and Gene just wiped them out before getting to Amuro and the Gundam. Here not only are there more Zaku soldiers attacking, but they come up against Lieutenant Wertz, and his Prototype Gundam who starts kicking their asses. This also answers the question of just what was the Gundam's original test pilot doing during the Zeon attack. The Zakrello in the original anime was a Flawed Prototype that posed little challenge to the Gundam before being unceremoniously taken out. Here, its performance was deemed good enough that it was mass-produced, and a team of them managed to give the newly-upgraded Gundam a bit of trouble, with Amuro even noting that without the magnetic coating, the damage the Gundam sustained would've been worse. Its main pilot Dimitri also received this treatment, as his helmet now sports 7 Ball victory markings, showing he's an Ace Pilot. The Dolos is a lot more impressive in this version. In the original series it was simply an exceptionally large MS carrier that had the slight design flaw that it prioritized carrying capacity above all else, including catapult decks, meaning it took a long time to launch it's full compliment into battle. In this version it's a gigantic mobile space fortress nearly as big as A Bao A Qu itself that can carry numerous standard size battleships the same way they carry mobile suits.

In Artesia: 0083, Sayla has tracked down Gil and Milly Ratokie and set them up with a decent foster home. In the original continuity (at least according to some obscure novels and sourcebooks) they were used as test subjects by the Murasame Newtype Lab, where Gil (rechristened Three Murasame) died while testing a prototype Psycho Gundam and Milly didn't even survive the grueling process of being converted into an Artificial Newtype.

Not only is his smugness cranked way up, but he also has far more morally questionable deeds under his belt than just trying to kill our heroes and betraying his leaders due to a family vendetta. Among other things, he sends the real Char Aznable to his death and steals his identity, manipulates a bunch of poor Amazon natives into helping him with promises that Zeon won't infringe on their tribal ways like the Federation even as his fellow Zeon soldiers try to mold them into guerrillas and may have ultimately caused the One Year War. And he smokes! But then, we are talking about a guy who eventually tried to blow up the Earth, here. The OVA adds setting up his former roommate (and original Char's friend) to die in a captured tank during the Dawn Uprising after the roommate figured out his true identity.

It's not a perfect fit though, since the Europe arc, which while heavily truncated in the movies still contains a few pivotal moments such as Miharu's infiltration of the White Base, was shuffled to after Jaburo in Origin. Amuro's spinoff episode is the last featured in the final volume despite the fact that it takes place a year before Sayla's.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_8cda3dc2	comment	Flawed Prototype: The Zaku prototypes: MS-01 did its job well enough... But said job was that of a mobile worker, a humanoid bulldozer. When fitted with a nuclear reactor and used for combat or space-based operations the MS-01 was slow, and underpowered and had poor range due the high propellant consumption from moving the arms and legs. It also had a completely exposed and open cockpit, leaving the pilot vulnerable to enemy fire. MS-02 was somewhat better than MS-01, but remained inefficient enough that Gihren, after visiting the research centre, shut down the development program, at least until Minovsky showed him the design of the next prototype and convinced him to give them a last chance. Ramba Ral also complained that the cockpit was a "deathtrap", as the cramped confines would have the pilot slamming into the walls during extreme maneuvers and collisions. MS-03, being the first one with the AMBAC system, solved the propellant consumption problem and managed to secure funding for further development, but its reactor gave it poor mobility. MS-04 worked well enough it could actually fight, but was still expensive, complex and short-ranged while the Zaku I had similar performance and superior range and simplicity while costing less, resulting in the latter being mass-produced and the MS-04 remaining a small number of prototypes. It still saw combat piloted by Ramba Ral in a skirmish before the war and during the One Week War, before being retired when Ramba Ral resigned in protest against Operation British.

Still, he nonetheless continues commanding Zeon's forces with gusto, if only so he could save his family and homeland as well as help redeem the Zabi name through Zenna and Mineva. Professor Minovsky gets one upon realizing that not only has Zeon succeeded in making mobile suits viable beyond his own expectations (to his growing horror). But that Zeon's engineers could improve on his designs without his guidance. Which spur him to defect to the Federation, and die in the process.

Since the Origin depicts events leading up to the One Year War, it gets a lot more screentime with Char, the Black Tri-Stars, Denim, and Slender all getting models for themselves. It's easily one of the most released kits in the Origin's High Grade line. Yasuhiko's notes on the flashback arc go into length about how he developed the Zeon Lt. JG Tachi, a minor character who assisted Hamon's Roaring Rampage of Revenge, into a full-fledged Dogged Nice Guy with a crush on her that lasted for years. The female cadet officer who attempts to stall Dozle Zabi during Garma's raid is revealed to be Zenna Zabi, who's generally been given a larger role compared to the original series. Char's original roommate at the Zeon Military Academy goes from a random schmuck killed by a stray bullet during the Dawn Uprising to one of the original Char Aznable's friends with a small arc of his own. He figures out Casval's identity after seeing his eyes, so Casval sends him to capture a Federation tank without telling the rest of the squad, leading to his death. In the manga, the RX-78-02's intended pilot, Lt. Willie Kemp, is unceremoniously killed by an explosion on his way to the hangar without uttering a single line. In the sixth movie, Amuro gets to briefly meet him while investigating his father's work at the military base.

If the Zabi family really did assassinate Zeon Deikun, it was probably the best thing they could have done for the nation, even with all the political instability it brought on. Deikun wanted to declare war on the Federation, a war the colony defense force as it existed at the time, when proper mobile suits had yet to be invented, was in no way prepared to fight. By postponing the war, Deikun's death saved Side 3 from a massive Curb-Stomp Battle, while the One Year War as it actually played out, though hideously destructive to almost everybody else, ended with surprisingly little damage to the Zeon home colonies. Kycilia's plot to break Revil out of prison and return him to the Federation in order to prolong the war. While this does allow Zeon to invade Earth, their gains are ultimately short lived when the numerically, logisitically, and (eventually) technologically superior Federation decimates Zeon's forces. Had Kycilia been a little less amibitious, Zeon would have gained the independence from the Federation that it originally aimed for.

The resulting impacts, ensuing natural disasters, famines, and lack of medical care against diseases killed just over 50% of the population of Earth.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_b8e3f20a	type	Demoted to Extra
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_b8e3f20a	comment	Demoted to Extra: The Manga expands considerably on numerous minor characters or plot points but a couple are cut down in this adaptation. M'Quve is the most notable major character to end up in a reduced role. While he was a major antagonist on Earth, here he's in the background for the most part and does not engage the Gundam in the Adzam. It's not until Volume 7 that he has significant character focus and Volume 8 when he actually steps up as a major threat. The author even remarks on this when discussing the covers admitting to really wanting his send-off in Volume 8 to make up for his reduced role. Of the Zeon grunt suits, the Gogg ends up in a much smaller role. It was a semi-common grunt in the original whereas here only one Gogg appears (doing so in Ireland) and they don't join in on the attack of Jaburo. The Bigro Mobile Armor is reduced to a cameo at the evacuation of A Baoa Qu. The Bigro's original pilot, Tokwan, instead pilots the Grabro (the Bigro's aquatic counterpart). The dialogue even cracks a joke about it when Sakioka tries to drag it with him when the Base is evacuated.

Before that, Char had been wearing Cool Shades, which he justified by claiming he had a medical condition (they were actually to keep people from realizing that he didn't have the same eye color as the now deceased original Char Aznable).

When Challia Bull's Braw Bow takes out one of the two remaining Guncannons, and the Gundam is incapacitated by Char's Gelgoog, Sleggar takes center stage in the Guntank and makes use of its armor, firepower, and treads to handily take out the Zaku squad that's defending their objective.

It's only after twelve Guncannons get wiped out by four Zaku I and a MS-04 Prototype Zaku designed to take on other mobile suits (and, admittedly, piloted by the future Black Trinary, Char and Ramba Ral) that the Federation agrees to develop what will become the Gundam.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_d500b978	comment	Adaptational Wimp: Played With. In the original series, the Guntank and Guncannon are cutting edge mecha that are part of Project V, same as the Gundam. In The Origin The Guncannon and Guntank are just grunt suits with the Gundams being the main secret weapon of the Federation. This is made especially obvious in the beginning where the one Gundam brought aboard the White Base is treated as the central important unit, while the 3 Guntanks and Guncannons are largely support (and were previously to be used as target practice by the Gundams). That said, the Guntank and Guncannon performances aren't too bad compared to the main series and they gain a greater role and get a few extra victories under their belts than they did in the original series. In the original series, Garma's a competent commander whose plans almost resulted in the destruction of the Gundam and the White Base, but failed due to Char's sabotage. Here, all of his tactical brilliance is cut, and he's depicted as a bitter, spoiled brat who can't accomplish anything without Char's help. Even his post as the supreme commander of the Earth attack force was given to M'Quve instead.

Aside from the private corporations butting heads to produce better mobile suits for the military, there's a clear factional split between Gihren loyalists and Kycilia loyalists. Dozle's loyalists don't try to rock the boat as much, but it's clear that they receive pushback from some of the others. Char racks up a number of enemies like Ortega, Garcia, and M'Quve who are either jealous or distrustful of him whilst Garcia imagines a rivalry between himself and M'Quve. Lt. Tachi opines that this will be Zeon's downfall as they focus on petty squabbles instead of the real enemy in the Federation. Back when the Principality of Zeon was the Autonomous Republic of Munzo, Zeon Deikun's two serving families: the Ral's and the Zabi's, had a very clear distrust of one another. After his death it turns very ugly very quickly. This extends to the present where Ramba Ral believes that his group are distrusted by the greater military on account of their support of the Deikun family.

He takes on five Mobile Suits alone (telling his companion Stetch to focus on the White Base) and easily cuts through most of them. After the fight only one Guntank is operational and they could salvage enough parts to get one Guncannon back online. The Battle for Jaburo. While the Zeon managed to breach Jaburo's defenses rather effectively, they were totally unprepared to run into large numbers of the new mass produced GM's (as opposed to the obsolete pre-war Gun Cannons), whose heavy shields and beam weapons allow them to destroy Zaku's with near impunity in the tight corridors of the base. The Zeon pilots mistaking the GM's for actual Gundams turns it into a full blown rout and massacre when they become cornered. In the flashback arc, there's a battle on the Moon when Professor Minovsky tries to defect and is pursued by five Zaku I's (piloted by Char, Ramba Ral, and the Black Tristars). The Federation scrambles a dozen Guncannon to protect him, but the Zakus destroy them all without a single casualty on their side. The opening of the OVA series shows Dozle's Zeon fleet getting completely annihilated by the Federation fleet. However, the tables are quickly turned when Char and a squadron of Zakus arrive and begin annihilating the Federation fleet.

Its base design and shield are from the original Gelgoog, but the shoulder vents, exterior skirt engines, and rifle are all from the Jaeger.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_e5d37e0f	type	Divergent Character Evolution
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_e5d37e0f	comment	Divergent Character Evolution: A few mech designs have been differentiated. The High-Mobility Zaku II's that the Black Tristars used were just carbon copies of each other in their Mobile Suit Variations design (and in the flashback Job narrates); each was armed with the standard Zaku armament (machine gun, heat hawk, and bazooka). When they see action they're all given individual design cues: Ortega's wields a giant heat hawk, Mash's wields an anti-ship rifle, and Gaia's Zaku wields a Bazooka and has twin shoulder shields rather than the standard shoulder and spike combo. The Guncannon's that Hayato and Kai use in the final part of the compilation movies were functionally identical save for the number printed on them. In The Origin Kai's has standard cannons and Hayato's is outfitted with missile pods.

Fortunately for the plot, Sayla's first confrontation with Char was moved to this scene, and he decides to withdraw instead.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_e913fe74	comment	Since the manga distills both the series and movies, it follows through on a few of the movies cuts. While the Adzam and Gyan are kept in the series, the beam lance, the Gundam Hammer, and the G-Armor parts are all cut out. The latter is replaced with the core booster from the movies.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_e9e35e8f	comment	Exact Words: When Sayla confronts Char over his deeds since leaving the Texas colony, particularly stealing the real Char Aznable's identity, he replies "Artesia, I swear to you, I was not the one who killed him. That was Kycilia's people." Sayla doesn't buy it: even if his hand wasn't on the trigger, he knowingly left the real Char in a position to die. Char claims he wears his sunglasses or mask due to a "pigmentation issues" that leaves his eyes very sensitive to UV rays. In fact, it's to hide the fact that his eyes are blue while original Char's are brown. That certainly could be considered a problem of pigmentation. During the preparatory stages of the One Year War, Kycilia assures the Mayor of Granada (who doesn't want to be involved in a war) that Zeon won't seek to have his city used as a forward base so long as he's mayor. The Mayor dies in a "car accident" later that night.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_f0089082	comment	Early-Bird Cameo: While the White Base is dealing with Ramba Ral, there is a brief non-sequiter scene which shows a Zeon patrol in South America getting wiped out by a GM prototype. In the original Anime, the GMs don't appear until the White Base docks at Jaburo. White Base's arrival at Jaburo happens chronologically much earlier than in the original and Sleggar Law shows up during the fight for the base, piloting a GM, whereas in the original he only appears when they're about to depart.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_f33ff01c	type	Adaptational Context Change
Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_f33ff01c	comment	Adaptational Context Change: Kai and Hayato's reasoning for abandoning White Base are altered both to make them more sympathetic and to incorporate the changed plot. In the original series, they were angry that Amuro wasn't being punished for betraying everyone and opted to defect. Here it's only part of the reason and the catalyst for their defection is actually the suspicion that Sayla was a Zeon spy. Kai feels that the revelation means that they've been compromised causing Ryu to counter that Kai's just using this as an excuse to act on his cowardice. Hayato in turn brings up that he and Kai were just civilians pressed into service, and the danger mixed in with their distrust for the higher-ups is justification enough to leave. The circumstances of several character deaths have been altered to make them seem less like Stupid Sacrifice. Ryu crashing into Hamon's Magella Top was an accident caused by low visibility. In the original series, it was a purposeful Suicide Attack to save Amuro, even though he could have just shot a missile at the Magella Top. The circumstances of Woody's death was radically changed. In the original series, he ignores Amuro's warning, charges Char's Z'Gok in a hovercraft, and gets killed in a single hit. In Origin, Amuro was forced to pilot a GM due to the Gundam not being available, causing him to lose to Char, who was moments away from finishing him off. Woody's sacrifice brought Amuro the time he needed to turn the tide of the battle.

Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin (Manga) / int_f3ae169c	comment	Knee-capping: Ramba Ral's disabling of the Gundam (piloted by the inexperienced Sayla) by slicing its foot in half is changed to this trope. This time Ral fights the much more experienced Amuro and focuses several of his blows on the Gundam's knee before unveiling the claw attachment of his Heat-rod and using it to completely shatter the Gundam's knee. Amuro is taken out of the fight and only saved when the cannon squad forces Ral to retreat by axing his support.

And then Zabi agents blew up the flight to prevent Deikun's heir from entering Zeon, leaving "Edouard Mass" dead while Casval continues on as "Char Aznable" with stolen documentation.
