Cosmic Era
From Free net encyclopedia
The Cosmic Era is the fictional timeline of the anime television series Gundam Seed and its spinoff projects. This Gundam timeline is noted for its similarities with the Universal Century timeline started by the first Mobile Suit Gundam' series.
With Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, the Cosmic Era universe is the only Gundam universe after the original Universal Century with multiple TV series (two so far). Before that, the second most developed universe was Gundam Wing's After Colony universe, with one TV series, one OVA series and a compilation movie. The Universal Century universe remains by far the most developed one, with four TV series, four OVA series, fifteen theatrical releases, and various specials.
