Comment:
Based on Yoshiyuki Tomino's 1987-1988 novel Mobile Suit Gundam: High Streamer, Char's Counterattack is the first original full-length theatrical feature for the Gundam franchise (the Mobile Suit Gundam movie trilogy consisted of footage from the TV series). It is also the first Gundam title to incorporate computer-generated animation sequences (namely a five-second shot of a Colony rotating in space).
