SUMMARY
【あらすじ】

EPISODE.01:　”SILVER GHOST”

Font Baud is a young high school student living on Side 3, a place far removed from the horrors of war. To him and his classmates, the atrocities being committed by the Zanscare Empire is something that just doesn’t affect him. One day, he stumbles across the plans for the Empire’s “Angel Halo”, the colossal psycommu fortress capable of devolving all of mankind to infants, on the net. The issue quickly becomes a hot topic on his website and it isn’t long before his site disappears from the net. A seemingly ordinary school day is turned upside down upon meeting a small blonde haired little girl named Belle. Chasing after her, he’s led to Curtis Rothko a member of a secret special forces known as “Serpiente Tacon”, the Serpent’s Feet. Just then, the school grounds come under attack by a Sandhoge! He’s given two choice: join them or die.

EPISODE.02: “FLIGHT”

Font, Curtis and Belle take shelter in an underground room of the former Zabi residence. At some point in the past it was converted into a war museum with various mockups of mobile suits from throughout the years. Here, Curtis bargins with Font. We learn that a member of Serpiente Tacon managed to obtain information on Zanscare’s invasion plan and it’s part of the same information that Font came across on the net. In exchange for joining them and helping their cause, Font and his family is afforded protection. However, as the two make their preparations for escape, Zanscare forces appear in the colony! When the smoke clears and the suits dealt with, a mysterious mobile suit belonging to the “Thoucus” special forces appears…

EPISODE.03: “THE MESSENGER FROM THOUCUS”

Curtis goes to battle with the mysterious envoy from Jupiter. However, he’s having difficulty fighting an enemy he’s not familiar with! After having trained to recognize certain enemy mobile suits via audio feedback, the Crossbone Gundam has nothing on the new Desphys! Curtis is forced to rely on Font to convey information to him, but that doesn’t go over too well. Just when it seems like things have gone from bad to worse, the accompanying Zanscare forces attempt to move in, but they’re mowed down by the Desphys! Weren’t they working together?! Staring death in the face, Font takes things into his own hands by launching another mobile suit straight at the enemy!

EPISODE.04: “ANGEL CALL”

Having escaped the enemy on the space ship Manzana Flor, Font is screened to become a member of the team. Just as they’re heading to a briefing room, a broadcast is made by Tetenith Dogatie, head of the Jupiter Foundation. The mysterious “Angel Call” was stolen from them some time ago and they’re on a mission to get it back. The very existence of the mysterious meteorite spells catastrophe for the Earth sphere as well as all of mankind if it’s used! Through he separation from the Jupiter Republic, she proclaims the revival of the Crossbone Vanguard to find it no matter what! Font soon learns just how deadly Angel Call really is: it’s a strong pathogen that causes a fatal disease, a space microbe with a different base sequence!
