Might be interesting but I really hope they don't kill her off at the end or worse, make her join the Titans. Indeed, let at least one UC Gundam pilot have a peaceful and uneventful life after their war. Though I'd be more interested in seeing what happened to Al after the OVA series, I'd like to think he became an anti-war activist.

Only now I realized that we never did know the aftermath of many of this series characters. It'd be interesting if this manga explores it, like it did with the other Gundam manga adaptations.

Sounds interesting. I hope it gets an English release.

Will be interesting to see how this is handled. Lotta potential here for a trainwreck.

I wonder if they'll follow the "hints" in other media that Chris joins up with Anaheim? She pops up in the background in 0083 Rebellion, and in a couple other spin-off media, potentially. Would at least be a way to introduce more Gundam variants to sell kits of.

Judau and Seabook say, "Hi."

Uh... that's just a happy coincidence and not really her.

Christina doesn't seem like the kind of person who would just willingly join the Titans.

Never really been too interested in reading Gundam manga over watching it animated, but with 0080 being my favorite Gundam media, I'll probably have to check this out

No, it's a cameo. It might be a Chris, it might not. Hence, "hints."
