It takes place between February 18 and February 23, thus concluding three days before the film, though in an entirely different region of space. The manga centers around Iris Orlando, a scientist from Anaheim Electronics who is a mobile suit developer attached to the F91 project. It features secondarily a protagonist by the name of Tokio Randall who is a more standard dark-haired, Gundam-piloting hero. The events unravel to reveal a conspiracy between Anaheim and the Earth Federation, along the way the Crossbone Vanguard is pulled into the events and ends up battling against the test pilots from Anaheim.
