PHASE-41: TREMBLING WORLD
(Broadcast: February 11, 2005)
Having made it to space, the
Archangel
and
Kusanagi
now set off for the abandoned
space colonies
of
Lagrange point
4, where they hope to scavenge supplies.
Athrun,
having accompanied
Kira
and friends into space, feels obligated to make a final visit to the
PLANTs
before choosing a side. And
Cagalli
shows Kira the photograph
her father
gave her, which suggests a surprising connection between the two youngsters.
Meanwhile, the
Alliance
has captured the
Victoria
spaceport in Africa, regaining access to space. Already, Earth forces are gathering at their
lunar base,
and a
former Archangel crewmember
receives a
prestigious new assignment.
PHASE-42: LACUS STRIKES
(Broadcast: February 18, 2005)
In the
Coordinator
homeland,
Lacus
has gone underground and begun waging a propaganda campaign against
Patrick Zala's
aggressive tactics. Zala is further aggravated when his son
Athrun
returns. Rather than reporting the whereabouts of the stolen
Freedom Gundam,
Athrun challenges his father to justify his conduct of the war, and is arrested at gunpoint for his pains.
Just as Athrun is being taken away for interrogation, he's rescued by
Lacus's followers.
With the unexpected help of
one of Kira's old adversaries,
Athrun and Lacus make a daring escape aboard the newly built
ZAFT
warship
Eternal.
Making its way to
Lagrange point
4, Lacus's ship joins forces with the
Archangel
and
Kusanagi.
PHASE-43: WHAT STANDS IN THE WAY
(Broadcast: February 25, 2005)
The
Archangel
and its companion ships have found a safe haven in the abandoned
space colony
Mendel
at
Lagrange point
4, but their enemies are closing in.
Rau Le Creuset
is dispatched to pursue the
Eternal,
while the
Alliance's
new Archangel-class warship, the
Dominion,
is assigned to capture the
Freedom
and
Justice
Gundams in order to extract their
Neutron Jammer Canceler
technology.
Arriving at Mendel, the Dominion challenges the renegade Archangel.
Murrue
and her crew are shocked to discover that the Dominion is commanded by their former comrade
Natarle Badgiruel,
and personally supervised by
Blue Cosmos
leader
Muruta Azrael.
As the Dominion and the Alliance's dreaded Gundam trio begin their attack, Le Creuset and
Yzak Joule
enter Mendel to search for the Eternal.
PHASE-44: SPIRAL OF ENCOUNTERS
(Broadcast: March 4, 2005)
The
Kusanagi,
which became tangled in
drifting cables
on its way out of the
Mendel
colony, finally frees itself and joins the battle against the
Dominion.
Now outnumbered, and with its trio of Gundams running low on energy, the Dominion makes a temporary retreat.
Sensing
Le Creuset's
presence,
Mu
enters Mendel with
Dearka
in tow. Mu and Le Creuset fight a running duel inside the colony, until Mu's
Strike Gundam
is finally shot down.
Kira
then joins the battle and swiftly dismembers Le Creuset's
mobile suit.
Le Creuset flees on foot into an
abandoned genetic engineering facility,
goading Mu and Kira to follow him.
PHASE-45: THE OPENING DOOR
(Broadcast: March 11, 2005)
In an
abandoned genetic engineering lab
inside the
Mendel
colony,
Rau
carries on a running gunfight with
Mu
and
Kira,
all the while taunting them with revelations about Kira's origins and the connection between Mu and Le Creuset. Elsewhere in the colony,
Yzak
and
Dearka
have a face-to-face reunion of their own.
Meanwhile, the
Dominion
arrives to launch another assault. Le Creuset returns to his
own ship
and orders the
ZAFT
forces to attack as well. But just before the battle is joined, he contacts the Dominion with a surprising offer...
PHASE-46: A PLACE FOR THE SOUL
(Broadcast: March 18, 2005)
A fierce three-sided battle begins outside the
Mendel
colony. While the
Archangel
takes on the
Dominion,
the
Eternal
and
Kusanagi
attempt to fight off
Le Creuset's
ships. In the midst of this chaos, Le Creuset sets
Flay
adrift in a lifepod, entrusting her with what he claims is the key that will end the war.
Though Flay calls out to the Archangel for rescue, in the end
Kira
is unable to prevent her falling into the
Alliance's
hands. Meanwhile, the Archangel and its companion ships fight their way past the enemy forces to safer territory. Flay, too, finds refuge aboard the Dominion, where
Azrael
is delighted to discover the nature of the so-called
key
she has brought them.
PHASE-47: THE NIGHTMARE REBORN
(Broadcast: March 25, 2005)
Azrael
presents his prize to the
Alliance
leadership - the specifications for the
Neutron Jammer Canceler,
which enables the use of nuclear power and nuclear weapons. The Alliance leaders want to use this technology to address Earth's ongoing energy crisis, but Azrael insists that they devote all their resources to a nuclear strike on the
Coordinator
homeland.
Two months later, the Alliance has driven
ZAFT
off the Earth and gathered a massive space fleet at its
lunar base.
The Alliance launches its offensive with a
nuclear attack
on the space fortress
Boaz,
one of two asteroid bases that guard the
PLANTs.
The Alliance fleet continues on to the Coordinator homeland, but the
Archangel
and its companions intervene to stop its nuclear attack. Then
Patrick Zala
unveils his own
ultimate weapon...
PHASE-48: DAY OF WRATH
(Broadcast: March 25, 2005)
At
Patrick Zala
order, the devastating gamma-ray laser known as
GENESIS
strikes the
Alliance
space fleet, wiping out half its vessels. The Alliance fleet pulls back, but
Azrael,
terrified that
ZAFT
will use its new weapon against Earth, orders his forces to renew their attack.
While GENESIS prepares to fire a second blast, and the Alliance fleet launches another assault, the
Archangel,
Eternal,
and
Kusanagi
fight to prevent both sides from using their weapons of annihilation. And
Rau Le Creuset,
at the controls of his
own new Gundam,
enters the fray to ensure that the war builds to a crescendo of destruction.
PHASE-49: THE FINAL LIGHT
(Broadcast: April 8, 2005)
GENESIS
fires again, this time annihilating the
Alliance's lunar base
and the reinforcements en route to the battlefield. Crazed with desperation,
Azrael
orders another nuclear attack on the
PLANTs.
While the
Archangel
intercepts Azrael's forces, the
Eternal
and
Kusanagi
head for the
ZAFT
space fortress
Jachin Due,
where GENESIS is being readied for one final blast.
As
Mu
and
Le Creuset
fight their last duel, the Archangel and
Dominion
meet in battle once more.
Natarle
at last decides to defy her insane leader, trapping Azrael on the Dominion's bridge while
Flay
and the rest of the crew abandon their damaged ship. But while Azrael may be cornered, he remains a lethal threat.
PHASE-50: TO A FUTURE THAT NEVER ENDS
(Broadcast: April 15, 2005)
The battle between the
Archangel
and the
Dominion
is over, and the
Alliance
fleet has been decisively defeated. Nonetheless,
Patrick Zala
is determined to see the war through to its conclusion by turning the power of
GENESIS
against Earth itself, thus exterminating all
Naturals.
Athrun
and
Cagalli
fight their way into the asteroid base
Jachin Due,
only to find that they're too late to prevent GENESIS from firing its final blast, and that their only hope is to destroy the weapon from the inside.
Kira
confronts
Le Creuset,
whose manipulations have brought humanity to the brink of annihilation. And
Flay Allster
rushes to a fateful rendezvous of her own...
