The Universal Century timeline isMobile Suit Gundamto its core.

Sukuna has some of the strongest powers in Jujutsu Kaisen.

Understandably, most Gundam diehards strongly recommend giving Universal Century a shake.

You’re in for a complex sociopolitical extravaganza with iconic characters and mecha designs worth building Gunpla over.

We’ve compiled the chronological UC Gundam order for your viewing pleasure.

We should add here thatseveral entries in this list jump around in the timeline at least a bit.

For these,we’re listing them at the earliest point in their stories.

It’s a complete mess otherwise.

If you feel like there ought to be any modifications therein, don’t hesitate to let us know.

All Might, Star and Stripe, and All for One from My Hero Academia.

Mobile Suit Gundam F91

0123

This was initially envisioned as a full-length anime series.

Unfortunately, that was

scrapped in favor of this story-condensed theatrical film.

Two of the sub-series, Dust and X-11,

are actually set a full 16 yearsafterVictory Gundam.

G-Saviour

0223

2000

Not exactly good, and largely “disinherited” from the timeline.

We’d suggest skipping it.

Connections are quite tenuous, but they’re there.

My Hero Academia’s quirks are incredibly varied, but some would just wipe the floor with the rest.

The Universal Century Timeline: Minus Most “Filler”

Well.

As you’re free to see, that’s a lot.

Some of it is quite good.

Gundam

The original show, and this is no slight against it, but it’s clearlyquite dated.

The movies have held up well by comparison, andthey actually provide a more fleshed-out final mission, besides.

you’re free to skip it and not miss any major context for what follows.

What’s The Deal With Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX?

First of all, what’s that name, right?

So, there’s that.

In any case,Mobile Suit Gundam GQuuuuuuX does have direct ties to the Universal Century timeline.

This is a surprising twist, given just how separate it otherwise seems.

GQuuuuuuX is setfive years after the alternate conclusion to the One Year War,which places it in0085.
