Plot summary
The second movie of the long-awaited fan favorite Thunderbolt Series. Earth, eight months after the end of the One Year War. Captain Monica launches a secret mission, "Operation Thunderbolt," and selects Io to pilot the Atlas Gundam. She leads the assault landing ship Spartan into a part of the ocean effectively controlled by the South Seas Alliance. Their objective is to secure or destroy the data of the Psycho Zaku, which the Alliance now possesses. Daryl, who took the upper hand in his battle with Io, has descended to Earth as part of the remnant forces of the Principality of Zeon. He has also been given the mission of obtaining information on the Psycho Zaku. Fighting alongside his new comrades, Io encounters Commander Peer, the South Seas Alliance's border garrison commander. In the sea, on the ice field, and among the thick jungle, the mobile suits of Zeon, the Federation, and the South Seas Alliance battle each other. "The war is not over yet."

Always been a fan of Mobile Suit Gundam
WAY TOO MUCH JAZZ!!
Animation quality was very good, and that's about the only good thing to say about this movie, and the thunderbolt series as a whole. It's terrible, plain and simple. People don't watch Gundam to see cringy characters playing jazz sessions. The whole movie was one long jazz music video which is a real shame because the animation was so amazing. Sadly I had to fast forward through most of it until finally I just shut it off. I like jazz too, but putting THAT much of it in a Gundam series/movie is a really, REALLY stupid idea. The show/movie also featured way too many cringy anime characters with wacky hairstyles, annoying, forced personalities, and other highly derivative concepts. It just feels so immature unrealistic, like it was made for 12 year old otakus instead of appealing to the older, more well-rounded fanbase that made Gundam so popular. Sadly those 12 year old otakus define much of what anime was/is and we will continue to see a lot more of this kind of pandering crap in the future.
