Prior to the One Year War, Zionic Co. was in the process of creating a novel class of manned robots, which eventually became known as Mobile Suits, that utilized a thermonuclear reactor safeguarded by Minovsky particles as its energy source. The project was assigned to Hosioka, a seemingly inferior steelworks company, due to confidentiality and safety concerns.
Asumi Kamogawa, a petite 14-year-old, possesses an unbridled adoration for the cosmos, particularly the twinkling stars. Under the tutelage of an affable ghost who wears a colossal lion head and goes by the nickname "Lion-san," she has been studying space since infancy. Despite an unsteady home life, Asumi resolves to join the Tokyo Space School. In no time, Asumi befriends a cadre of classmates, including her childhood friend Shinnosuke Fuchuuya, who sports spectacles and harbors a staunch brutal honesty, Kei Oumi, a cordial young woman who drew inspiration from Neil Armstrong's photos of the moon landing, Marika Ukita, an enigmatic and stunningly gorgeous girl with a few secrets of her own, and Shuu Suzuki, a bold and bright boy who maintains a laidback approach.

In the distant future, specifically in After Colony 195, Earth is encompassed by orbiting space colonies. The colonists are subjected to harsh mistreatment at the hands of the Earth Alliance, using massive humanoid machines known as "mobile suits" to gain control over them.

The day has come for the space colonies to launch a counterattack.

Set ten years after the events of Gundam F91, the tale revolves around Seabook Arno and Cecily Fairchild who uncover Crux Dogatie's scheme to invade Earth with the Jupiter Empire. In response, Cecily restores Crossbone Vanguard under her birth name, "Berah Ronah," who pose as space pirates to attack the Jupiter Energy Fleet. Seabook, known as "Kinkedo Nau," is one of the top pilots of the revamped Vanguard, alongside veteran Zabine Chareux. The narrative unravels through the eyes of Tobia Arronax, a teenage Newtype who inadvertently gets involved in the confrontation between the Jupiter Empire and the Crossbone Vanguard. While many Gundam aficionados were left underwhelmed by Gundam F91, Crossbone Gundam is lauded as one of Gundam's best due to its appealing characters, astute narration, and one-of-a-kind "pirate Gundam" designs. One cannot help but ponder how Gundam F91 would have fared had the original plan of a 52-episode TV series been fulfilled instead of compressing it into a two-hour movie.
