In the Future Century, Earth has become uninhabitable, and humanity lives in space colonies. To avoid war, nations compete in the Gundam Fight, a tournament where each country sends a mobile fighter piloting a Gundam. Domon Kasshu, representing Neo Japan, enters the tournament to find his missing brother Kyouji, who is accused of stealing the ultimate Gundam. Alongside his childhood friend Rain Mikamura, Domon battles rival fighters and uncovers a conspiracy behind the tournament.
