Plot
In UC 0093, the Federation has recovered from its defeat and has created a new anti-colonial special forces unit to deal with rebel forces: Londo Bell.
Sinekatalog’s take
The long rivalry between two pilots finally reaches an apocalyptic head, with a colony drop as the stakes. It is operatic, melancholic and heavy with the series' anti-war ideas, though newcomers will struggle without the backstory. Franchise fans get a big, emotional mecha showdown with striking space battles.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
