Synopsis

Suletta Mercury leaves her planet to attend the Asticassia School of Technology at her mother's request. At the school, students determine right and wrong through duels, and the top-ranking duelist wins the hand of Miorine Rembran, a prize decided by Miorine's father. When Guel Jeturk, the school's best pilot and Miorine's current fiancé, demands that she move in with him, Suletta objects and is challenged by Guel. Although she wins, Suletta is detained on suspicion of piloting a forbidden mobile suit—a GUND-ARM, or "Gundam"—which results in her victory being voided. Miorine refuses to accept further injustices and proposes another duel with higher stakes. Suletta must triumph again, or she will be expelled and her beloved Gundam Aerial will be destroyed.
