His life changes one day when he meets a mysterious girl named Audrey Burne, as the encounter brings him into contact with a new Gundam and its connections to an item called "Laplace's Box".
A television rebroadcast series of the anime titled Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn RE:0096 was announced by Sunrise on February 21, 2016, and began airing on April 3, 2016, in Japan on TV Asahi and other networks, replacing Brave Beats.
[8] On November 29, 2016, it was announced that the English dub of RE:0096 would make its television broadcast premiere on Adult Swim's Toonami programming block on January 8, 2017, and ended on June 11, 2017.
Full Frontal, the leader of Neo Zeon, demands that the Nahel Argama hand over any items related to Laplace's Box, including the Unicorn.
Saboteurs destroy Palau's connecting bridges, while the Nahel Argama unleashes its Hyper-Mega Particle Cannon, pushing the asteroids towards each other to damage much of the Sleeves' forces.
Banagher continues to pursue Full Frontal during the reentry, but a beam magnum shot meant for the Sinanju hits Gilboa Sant instead.
The Zeon Remnant forces attack the Federation Capitol Building at Dakar in a feint operation to allow the Garencieres to descend to Earth safely.
Marida is transported to a Federation facility in North America, where Martha Vist Carbine manipulates her using the wreck of an old Mass-Production Qubeley, which she had piloted in the past.
The Shamblo's pilot, Loni Garvey, falls victim to the malfunctioning on-board psycommu system, becoming a channel for her dead father's bloodlust and begins indiscriminately massacring the population of a local city, despite being ordered to avoid causing collateral damage.
Banagher, appalled by the resulting destruction, confronts Zinnerman about his hypocritical rationalizing of the situation and flies out in the Unicorn Gundam to put a stop to Loni's rampage.
After neutralizing the Delta Plus, the newly arrived Banshee captures the Unicorn and returns it to the Ra Cailum, where Riddhe encounters and attempts to question Alberto Vist of Anaheim Electronics' motives, only to be ignored.
On the Ra Cailum, Bright speaks with Banagher and comes to terms with the latter's actions, before learning of the Federation's covert deployment of the new Dogosse Gier-class battleship General Revil.
Riddhe enters the Garuda's rear docking bay and confronts Anaheim staff to rescue Mineva, but before he can do so, Zimmerman begins firing on them.
The spirits of Daguza Mackle and Gilboa Sant appear, resulting in the Unicorn's psycoframe producing a green luminescence, helping the Garencieres achieve orbit.
Full Frontal and Angelo Sauper comes in to rescue the Nahel Argama and the Garencieres as the EFSF flagship General Revil bears down on them.
The Londo Bell Tri-Stars chase down the Garencieres, which suddenly blows up as a decoy to buy time for the Sleeves to take over the Nahel Argama.
An ECOAS team led by Conroy Haagensen assaults the Nahel Argama and gradually fights the Neo-Zeon troops back to the MS hangar deck.
Banagher activates the Unicorn to aid in the attack, but Full Frontal faces him and threatens him with death if he doesn't join the Neo-Zeon's cause, since Mineva already knows where the Box is.
With Mineva's help, Marida reactivates the Kshatriya to prevent Angelo from destroying the Nahel Argama but declares that they aren't supporting Full Frontal's plan to use the Box to launch another war with the Federation.
Seeing that the two proved themselves as Newtypes through the Unicorn, Syam explains the truth behind Laplace's Box - it is the original Universal Century charter, which had an extra clause stating that people from the space colonies must be involved in the Earth Federation's future government affairs.
The mobile armor easily disposes of the ECOAS forces in the area, as well as Gael (who barely manages to buy Banagher enough time to get back to the Unicorn).
As Frontal immobilizes Riddhe, he ensnares Banagher and they make a transcendent trip through time, witnessing various events throughout history (including scenes from the earlier Gundam series).
Meanwhile, Bright Noa arrives at Cheyenne Base in North America and, under the guise of an inspection with Londo Bell, comes down to confront Martha Vist Carbine and the Federation leadership over the situation in space.
Ronan Marcenas activates the superweapon over Bright's pleas, but is stunned to hear too late from Alberto Vist that Riddhe is in the line of fire.
Seeing Banagher taking the brunt of the laser and the beam starting to exceed his own abilities, the Banshee's Psycho-Frame turns green and the psychofield strengthens.
As the Gryps laser fades, the Federation base on Earth reports that Megallanica is still intact, accompanied by an enormous field of green light projecting from the crystalized Unicorn.
Mineva addresses the Earth Sphere using Megallanica's massive communication field while Syam quietly passes away, having finally realized his redemption.
