I would like to, if I may...
...provide you with an explanation of the Gundam Fight.
It all began in the recent past, about 60 years ago.
People had left the filthy Earth to live in Colonies in space.
But in order to avoid all-out war among the Colony nations...
...a competition is held every four years with representatives...
...from each nation piloting Gundam machines...
...in what's known as "Gundam Fights."
And the pilots fight. And they fight. And they continue fighting...
...until the nation represented by the last standing Gundam...
...earns the right to rule all the Colony nations.
It's as though they've based war on principles of sportsmanship.
However, one problem still remains.
This competition takes place on Earth.
That's right.
This filthy planet on which we live.
But this time around...
...there seems to be something different about the tournament.
Hey, you over there!
Do you remember seeing this guy?
Well, now...
...how might this photo affect today's fight?
Neo Russia - Bolt Gundam
Today's opponent, representing Neo Russia...
Neo Russia - Bolt Gundam ...is a prisoner and the Bolt Gundam!
And now!
Gundam Fight! Ready! Go!
Great Escape! A Captive Gundam Fighter
Oh, yes. I can't really recall when this place...
...had become known as the Gundam graveyard.
They say the Gundams that enter this town...
...vanish without a trace.
Huh? Domon Kasshu?
No. Haven't heard of him.
Tourists never come to a place like this.
Not to a prison town like this.
But...
...I'm sure that Domon came to this town.
Gundam graveyard...
Why?
Why are they looking for Gundams?
Why?
Spit it out!
We know you're a Gundam Fighter!
You've come here to find Neo Russia's Fighter!
Isn't that right?
I've already told you several times.
I just came here for some sightseeing.
Won't give up, huh?!
Come on!
Why don't you just tell us where your Gundam is?
Now wait a minute.
He was only seen wandering around town, right?
But apparently he was looking for somebody.
We can't conclude that he's a Fighter based on that.
Sure we can.
Our intelligence network is always accurate.
That man is no doubt Neo Japan's Fighter.
But still...
Names of countries?
Hey, you...!
Who is this man here?
Well?
Take off these handcuffs!
All right!
Better take him to the doctor, or he'll never use his arm again.
I'm taking this back.
Halt!
Wait...!
Just let him go.
What is it? What are they plotting?
Give it up!
There's no way you can get out of here on your own...
...no matter how hard you try!
Big guy...
...looks like you're also a prisoner.
But unfortunately, I can't waste my time hanging around here.
Anyone getting in my way will be forced aside!
My punch has no effect!
That's enough!
I still have things I want to ask that man.
And I'll have you wait patiently a little while longer...
...Argo Gulskii.
That's right, Father.
Right.
I know you can't interfere with matters outside our borders.
Anyway, please...
Okay, then. I'll keep an eye on things.
Domon...
...if you keep on worrying me like this, I'm dumping you.
Domon...
Domon Kasshu...
What's the matter?
What about that man?
Hurry up and catch him...
...along with the Devil Gundam.
That's right.
It's the only way we can save him.
You're the only one who can save him.
You're the only one!
I see you're awake.
You seemed to have had a bad nightmare.
You should just try to forget everything.
Now that you're in here...
Checkmate.
It's game over.
All right? Mr. Gundam Fighter?
You can try and hide it, but you can't get past the Birdman.
Every four years or so, guys like you end up in here.
Yes. Caught in a trap.
The guys here spread a rumor that Neo Russia's Gundam is in town.
They capture any Fighter who shows up from an enemy country...
...and throw him in here!
That way, Neo Russia is able to win without even fighting.
If a Fighter is stuck in this place, where there're no communications...
...no one on the outside can do anything.
It's goodbye.
And what do you think happens to the Fighters who are captured?
As you can see, they're forced to work as hard as they can.
They become a part of a big group of captured losers.
But it's nothing to laugh at.
Take a look at this.
At this rate, there's no tomorrow.
Not for a Gundam Fighter anyway.
The Neo Russia guys...
...do this to get information on the latest technology...
...and use it to build their own Gundam.
I bet they're strong.
I'm sure he'll do well for us.
Plant one of our Fighters as a spy among the prisoners...
...break down his spirit...
...and get him to reveal where the Gundam is.
Good thinking.
But, looking at it from another perspective, this place is paradise.
It's true.
The Fighters who disappear during the tournament...
...are labeled traitors against their nation.
Once they're out of here, they're on the run anyway.
No freedom for them.
You sure do talk a lot.
Or maybe...
...you're one of those former Gundam Fighters?
Why, don't be ridiculous!
I'm just your average criminal.
In any case, you might want to let them know where your Gundam is.
Him...!
What's that guy think he's doing?
Hey! What's going on here?!
Don't move!
Right. Don't any of you try anything!
This is good.
And now I'm going to get out of this place.
Listen...
Meet up with me tomorrow at the end of our shift.
We're escaping!
What?!
What a crazy fool.
Mobile Fighter G Gundam
Security's a lot tighter than I thought.
There's no way of knowing whether Domon's in there or not.
Besides...
...I can't hand over the Core Lander to him over water.
You just never give up, do you?
Better watch it, or you'll get yourself killed.
You'd be better off if you tell them where your Gundam is.
More importantly, interested in getting out of here?
Wh-what?
You've kept me company. You want to come along?
Y-you out of your mind?
How will you escape?
Listen, even if you manage to steal a car...
...you won't make it out over the sea.
It's impossible!
Just forget about it, and give up your Gundam!
Boy, it's cold tonight.
I'm shivering. It's really cold.
What?!
That man's planning an escape?
That's right.
But that's all I know.
I don't know when or how.
Well, what a spy.
What is that man thinking?
Well? Are you coming?
I've decided.
Good-bye, birds. I'm out of here!
Get moving!
So, how do you plan to get us out?
What's wrong?
Wow!
It's a fuel pipe...
...and we're going to light it!
- Put out the fire! - Hurry up!
Guards! Restrain the prisoners!
We're going to ram right through it!
There's only water ahead of us! What'll we do?!
I don't care!
What the...?!
It's frozen!
The sea froze up during the night, with the cold temperatures!
We're out! I'm free at last!
I'm free!
Back in contact with Domon! Great!
That man!
How could he think about escaping?!
Bolt Gundam!
Okay!
Switch remote control over to me!
Take off!
We've almost made it to the town!
Well, it sure doesn't look like we'll get there too easily.
A Gundam?
Hey!
They found us way too quickly! Did you...?!
No! I didn't tell them anything!
Then could he...?!
The first step is to stop them.
Is he the spy?
But why?!
Domon!
Hurry! Here's your Core Lander!
Thank you, Rain!
Go!
Shining Gundam!
So that's Neo Japan's Shining Gundam.
Yes. Argo was simply after that.
He staged an escape in order to lure the Gundam out.
Good work!
- Now leave the rest to us...! - Shut up!
I won't let anyone get in the way of my battles!
Argo...?
Gundam Fight standby!
Ready!
Go!
A-A real Gundam Fight!
A hammering weapon.
You got us out of there! Now, I'll return the favor!
Gotcha!
Direct hit!
You're kidding!
That head withstood Domon's knockout punch!
Don't take Neo Russia's technology too lightly.
Here I go!
He's done it!
Argo! Go for the head!
What's wrong? Is this it?!
Was that gutsy attitude back at the prison just an act?!
Is this the best you can do?!
I'm taking your head!
Fight's over.
Come on, kid!
This hand of mine glows with an awesome power!
Lts burning grip tells me to defeat you!
The ultimate...
...Shining Finger!
We lost.
Domon!
No. It's a draw.
He's right.
I can't fight him anymore.
That man, Argo Gulskii...
...sensed your fighting spirit from your punch at the prison.
At that moment, he felt a deep desire to fight you.
That's why he staged an escape?
Who knows?
I heard he used to be a space pirate, plundering the Space Colonies.
He agreed to become the nation's Fighter...
...in exchange for the safety of his crew.
Look.
He's got a bomb fixed to his chest...
...which means he's a prisoner for life.
The only remaining freedom for him is to fight.
Oh, by the way.
I have no idea who this man is.
So, what do you plan to do now?
When I watched that Fight...
...I was reminded that I too am a Fighter who gave up freedom.
So, I've decided.
I'm going to run and run and keep running...
...until I once again find freedom!
And don't you forget.
Article 7 of the Gundam Fight International Regulations.
"Earth is the."
That's right.
As long as we Fighters remain here on Earth...
...we can't deny the fact that we're just prisoners, too.
I see.
I'm a prisoner, too.
Stuck on this called Earth.
Ikusen no tsukihi ga nagaretemo No matter how much time passes
tadori tsukenu basho o There's a place I can never reach
samayoi motomenagara As I wander, continuing my search
aruite yuku I keep going forward
koibito yo, watashi no hitomi no oku de Deep within my stare, my love
kasuka ni yureteiru shinjitsu ga There is a truth that gently floats

Kizutsuita kokoro to karada azukete Give me your injured body and spirit
atataka na kono mune de I will hold you against my warm heart
umi yori mo fukaku nemutte So you can sleep deeper than the sea
It's the moment you've been waiting for!
A terrifying test is waiting for Domon on his return...
...to the Neo Japan Colony.
Who is the man in the picture?
What is the Devil Gundam...
...the strongest and most evil of Gundams?
Domon's true objective is about to be revealed!
Next, on Mobile Fighter G Gundam...
Fight, Domon! Earth is the Ring!
Ready! Go!
Fight, Domon! Earth is the Ring!
