ben0119 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Well, good luck figuring out what the hell is going on here. End of AD? Is this a thousand years in the future or something? Or they're just changing calendars because... because? And if it's the Universal Century (main/original Gundam timeline/universe), I hope there aren't any characters like Amuro.
