...provide you with an explanation of the Gundam Fight.
It all began in the recent past, about 60 years ago.
People had left the filthy Earth to live in Colonies in space.
And in order to avoid all-out war among the Colony nations...
...a competition is held every four years with representatives...
...from each nation piloting Gundam machines...
...in what's know as "Gundam Fights."
And the pilots fight. And they fight. And they continue fighting...
...until the nation represented by the last standing Gundam...
...earns the right to rule all the Colony nations.
It's as though they've based war on principles of sportsmanship.
However, one problem still remains.
This competition takes place on Earth.
That's right.
This filthy planet on which we live.
But this time around...
...there seems to be something different about the tournament.
Hey, you over there!
Do you remember seeing this guy?
Well, now...
...how might this photo affect today's fight?
Neo France - Gundam Rose
Today's opponent, representing Neo France...
Neo France - Gundam Rose ...is George de Sand and the Gundam Rose!
And now!
Gundam Fight! Ready! Go!
Challenge! The Red Rose Knight
Challenge! The Red Rose Knight.
It is dangerous here, Miss Maria Louise.
The match is about to commence very shortly.
For your own safety, please return to your seat at once.
May I watch from here?
Certainly not!
What if something terrible should happen to you?
We're fine.
Besides, he will surely win!
George de Sand...
All right! Let's get on with it!
When I beat you, I'll make a name for myself!
What an insult to have to face such a lowly Gundam.
Choosing you for my match in the presence of the princess...
...was an oversight on my part.
Shut your trap!
I'll beat you bad.
Gundam Fight Standby!
Very well. Ready...!
Go!
What the...?!
Why, that's Neo Japan's...
...Shining Gundam?
Sorry to interrupt, but I want you to fight me first.
If you want, both of you can come at me.
I refuse.
What?
Article 5, Gundam Fight International Regulations.
"A match shall only be held on a one-on-one basis."
Aren't you aware that it is in bad form to intrude on a match?
Just ignore this second-rate Gundam.
Come on. You're going to fight me.
What makes you think you can just put me down?
Fine. If that's how you want it!
I don't care who I beat!
What?
Article 1, Gundam Fight International Regulations.
"A unit whose head section has been destroyed is disqualified."
Correct?
Your appointment has been canceled.
My, my. You have all the tact of a rampaging bull.
What?
Gundam Fighters are like knights who fight duels for their countries.
Fighting simply for the sake of fighting...
...is the pinnacle of ignorance...
Just shut up, already!
Rose!
You...!
Gundam Fighter of Neo Japan, Domon Kasshu!
I do not wish to fight you.
Please never appear before me again.
W-wait!
You are amazing, George.
George de Sand...
...that is why you are my prince.
Good. All we had to do was change parts.
Listen!
We've received a serious complaint from the...
...International Gundam Fight Committee!
I received the fighting signal first.
There's no problem.
They won't accept such a lame excuse!
Just back off.
I just have to win the championship, right?
Of course!
And let me remind you of the position you're in!
Don't forget why you were chosen as the Fighter!
Okay? The way things are, your father will forever be...
I see that had some effect on you.
In any case, you were completely out of line today.
I do understand your frustration about your father's situation.
That's right.
Out of the countries Major Ulube mentioned...
...Neo France and Neo Russia are the only ones left.
What'd you do that for?! I'm concerned for you!
Who asked you?
Where are you going?
Leave me alone.
Your job is to keep the Gundam in top condition.
Boy! What'll it take to get the message across?!
Ouch!
It's Major Ulube's secret code.
It's a pleasure, Princess Maria Louise.
You are as captivating as ever.
Princess, may I have the honor of this dance?
Excuse me.
George de Sand.
What has brought you out here?
Look.
I never tire of its beauty.
It fills me with immense pride...
...being given the chance to fight with this Gundam Rose.
How about me?
In your battles...
...would you not fight for my honor as well?
George...
Of course.
But it is also for our country.
Yes.
Once a great power in Europe...
...Neo France has a great and glorious past.
The Gundam Fight gives us...
...the opportunity to rekindle that honor and glory.
Now it is my duty to bring the championship to this nation.
Princess?
George...
"For his country..."
What could I do to get his attention?
I know!
Princess!
The Princess has been kidnapped!
Wh-what is this?!
I see!
Making them think I was kidnapped by Neo Japan went well, but...
Thank you.
Uh, excuse me...
That will be 17 Neo Francs, please.
This is unfortunate.
Please follow me!
This'll do, right?
Well, yes...
So!
Snuck out with no money, huh?
Princess of Neo France?
Come on. I just paid for your drink.
You can't blow me off.
I shall send someone later.
Not so fast!
I've got a hot temper, losing a battle and all!
You may have been humiliated by Neo Japan...
...but venting your frustrations on a woman?
Well, you certainly deserved to lose!
What'd you say?!
You brat!
Think it'll be easy getting out of here?
Isn't it me you want to take your anger out on?
Why, you!
I was just looking for someone to trash as well!
Shut up!
Uh, pardon...
Neo Japan Fighter...?
Wrong guy.
I understand you want to fight my George.
What?
I can arrange to have him fight you.
Mobile Fighter G Gundam
What?!
You want to fake a kidnapping?
"Come fight me!"
"Otherwise your beloved princess shall perish, never to be seen!"
Look...
...I can't imagine a Fighter like George falling for such a trick.
He'll come! Of course! Definitely!
Sounds interesting.
No, Domon!
Are you going to add kidnapping to your record?
And look here. An order from Major Ulube.
He'll take care of the problem of you interfering in a match.
So, in the meantime, go to Neo Russia first.
I hear that their "Bolt Gundam" is waiting for an opponent to fight.
Just because it's a tip from Ulube...
...doesn't mean it's reliable, you know.
Then, Domon...
...keep in mind, you could be taken off the mission at any time!
Then, he'll be like that forever!
Um...
Whatever the case may be, are you or...
...are you not going to kidnap me?
Look! The answer is obvious!
I will!
Domon!
Are you serious?!
Yeah. I don't want to wait around!
But...
No! Wait! Domon!
I'm your partner! You'll never get away with this!
She's fine there.
She has all the facilities that she needs.
What do we do about the ransom note to George?
It's all taken care of. Let's go.
I never want to see him again.
What?
You found this letter at your cafÃ©?
Y-yes. And next to it, that hat.
There's no mistake, sir.
This belongs to Miss Maria Louise.
Let's see...
"Let us conclude the battle by dawn."
"I shall wait in the abandoned area along the Seine."
What shall we do?
- I have no choice but to go! - Right.
We're going! Gundam Rose!
Give me a break! Did he forget that I'm a mechanic?
There!
It's open!
Be more gentle!
That hurts!
I can't do any better than this!
Hey, do you have to tie me up so tightly?!
Don't worry, I can untie it quickly when the time comes.
It's George! My George has come for me!
Domon Kasshu.
I did excuse you for your rudeness of interfering in my match.
However, kidnapping Miss Maria Louise is unforgivable!
So, what'll you do?
Your crime shall not go unpunished!
In that case...! Gundam Fight! Standby!
Ready...!
Go!
It's started!
Vulcan!
That's nothing!
Oh, George! At last, George is fighting a battle for me!
Princess!
Why are you tied to a tree like that?!
How did you manage to get out?
Not now. We have to get to a safe place!
No. I must stay right here to see George win.
I mean, after all, he came here to fight for me.
Do you really believe that?
Don't you see? It doesn't really matter what they say.
Men don't think that way when they're fighting.
Not true! You are wrong. My George is different!
- Princess! What she says is true! - What?
Yes, at this moment, I am engaged in battle as a fighter!
Yes.
I see nothing before me except this man!
Princess, put an end to this kidnapping game.
Please flee to safety!
I can't untie it! It's too tight!
You can! Look carefully, Rain!
You let a woman distract you?!
Quite remarkable!
You are the first one to deflect my attack!
But can you deflect this?!
The Pride of Neo France. The ultimate weapon...
..."Rose Bits!"
And now, a demonstration!
Rose Screamer!
This one again!
Th-this is...
I'm unable to move at all.
Enjoying this? The transformable Rose Bits.
Now, allow me to graciously finish you off.
You shouldn't assume that you've won yet.
What?
Yes, there's a way!
This hand of mine glows with an awesome power.
Its burning grip tells me to defeat you.
Now! The ultimate... Shining Finger!
Th-this can't be!
Miss Maria Louise!
Running away?!
A knight never shows his back!
What?
What now?
If I care only about the battle and fail to save my princess...
...I will shame the de Sand family...
...no, I will shame Neo-France.
As a representative of the nation...
...a Gundam Fighter shall not taint the honor and dignity of the nation.
Yes...
In accordance with Article 6 of the International Regulations...
...finish this!
You have won!
Now, finish me off!
I am very sorry.
I had no intention of putting our Gundam Rose through this.
But...
...the head section is still beautiful.
I didn't expect him to stop there.
He too must have shown me the dignity of a warrior.
I'm sorry for what I've done...
Thank you very much.
Your affection has given me more honor than I deserve.
However, I am forever obliged to continue fighting battles...
...with all my body and soul.
In that case...
Would you vow to continue until you win the championship?
Yes.
I certainly will.
Anything for my Miss Maria Louise.
I want to ask you something.
How did you figure out the kidnapping was staged?
It was easy.
It's unlikely for someone like you to have...
...such excellent command of the proud French language.
Well, I look forward to seeing you again.
Yeah.
Hey, Domon.
If I get in trouble, would you protect me?
No. I'd only do that for a princess.
All right. Off to Neo Russia.
Wait, Domon...!
Ikusen no tsukihi ga nagaretemo No matter how much time passes
tadori tsukenu basho o There's a place I can never reach
samayoi motomenagara As I wander, continuing my search
aruite yuku I keep going forward
koibito yo, watashi no hitomi no oku de Deep within my stare, my love
kasuka ni yureteiru shinjitsu ga There is a truth that gently floats
dore hodo tsutawaru no desho How much of it will you catch?
Kizutsuita kokoro to karada azukete Give me your injured body and spirit
atataka na kono mune de I will hold you against my warm heart
umi yori mo fukaku nemutte So you can sleep deeper than the sea
It's the moment you've been waiting for!
As soon as he arrives in Neo Russia to fight Bolt Gundam...
...Domon is sent to prison.
Will Domon be able to safely escape...
...and return to the Gundam Fight?
And what is the true identity of the mysterious prisoner, Argo Gulskii?
Next, on Mobile Fighter G Gundam...
