GUNDAM IBO - IRON BLOODED ORPHANS
Brief outline of Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans
Mobile Suit Gundam Iron-Blooded Orphans is a 50-episode anime series that takes place in the Post Disaster (P.D.) timeline, set 323 years after a catastrophic event known as the Calamity War. The series follows a group of young mercenaries called Tekkadan, led by Mikazuki Augus and Orga Itsuka, as they navigate the harsh realities of a war-torn solar system and fight for their right to a better future.
Mikazuki, the main protagonist, is a skilled pilot who operates the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos, a highly adaptable mobile suit with a unique feature: it evolves and upgrades using parts from defeated enemies. Other key characters include Kudelia Aina Bernstein, a Martian noblewoman seeking independence for her planet, and McGillis Fareed, a scheming Gjallarhorn officer with hidden motives.
The series introduces a variety of new mobile suits, such as the ASW-G-11 Gundam Gusion, which can be reconfigured into the Gundam Gusion Rebake, and the EB-06 Graze, a versatile and customizable suit widely used by Gjallarhorn. Notable mobile suits from the Calamity War era also make an appearance, including the ASW-G-01 Gundam Bael, the ASW-G-66 Gundam Kimaris, and the ASW-G-29 Gundam Astaroth.
Iron-Blooded Orphans deviates from traditional Gundam tropes by placing a heavy emphasis on the bonds between the characters and the consequences of their actions. The series explores themes of camaraderie, sacrifice, and the struggle for independence in a world rife with political intrigue, corruption, and inequality.
Aesthetics and kits to look out for
IBO has become a fan favourite due to the aggressive designs every suit sports, combined with a more sleek and stylized design, sporting exposed inner mechanics, heavy use of pistons and the scavenger feel of most suits, due to their combination capabilities.
