Synopsis

Set in C.E. 73, two years after the peace treaty between ZAFT and the Earth Alliance was signed in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, members of the Earth Alliance special task force known as Phantom Pain hijack three advanced mobile suits from a ZAFT armoury base during a meeting between Orb representative Cagalli Yula Athha and new ZAFT chairman Gilbert Durandal. What begins as a pursuit of this band of Extended Naturals by Orb refugee Shinn Asuka, Athrun Zala, and the crew of the LHM-BB01 Minerva, escalates into cataclysmic circumstances which lead to the declaration of yet another war. Although a success in terms of ratings, Gundam SEED Destiny could not match either the previous success of Gundam SEED or Fullmetal Alchemist, both of which previously aired on its popular Saturday evening prime-time slot. However, Gundam SEED Destiny had high DVD sales, surpassing DVD sales of Gundam SEED.
