Line 5:
Thus, while those familiar with the OVAs may find much that's still recognizable, much has been added and changed that the manga can stand on it own even while remaining faithful to its source.
{{tropelist}}
* [[A House Divided]]: It's mentioned that the Earth Federation is experiencingrife with corruption and experiencing a lot of political infighting. It's this mess that's opened a window of opportunity for Delaz and Gato to exploit for Operation Stardust. {{spoiler|The same's true for Jamitov Hymem and the other key figures behind [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|the Titans]].}}
* [[Adaptation Expansion]]: The manga expands significantly on the OVAs, especially with regards to characterizations, backstory and other details. In fact, a major difference from the anime is how the story begins on New Years Eve 0082, the first chapter largely following Kou Uraki's time in the academy.
* [[Broad Strokes]]: The overall plot is broadly still the same. The devil however, is in the details.
Line 12:
** Gato is shown using a customized Zaku II previously introduced in the MSV-R series.
** In a flashback sequence and nod to ''Char's Deleted Affair'', Delaz's forces rendezvous with other fleeing Zeon fleets, deliberating on whether to join Maharajah Karn <ref>Father and predecessor of [[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Haman]] [[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ|Karn]].</ref> or remain in the Earth Sphere.
** The ''Albion'' is shown flying over a massive crater near Torrington Base, marking where Operation British hit Australia.
** One of Nina Purpleton's colleagues in Anaheim Electronics is shown making a suspicious comment about working on the ''La Vie En Rose.''
* [[Determinator]]: Kou Uraki, even as a cadet, is shown for the get-go as ''very'' eager to become a mobile suit pilot.
Line 18:
* [[Foregone Conclusion]]: As the manga, like the OVAs, still lead to the events of ''[[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam]]'', it's a given.
* [[Gundamjack]]: Like the anime, though it happens comparatively later on in the manga's story.
* [[Idiot Ball]]: Invoked by Gato when he manages to slip into Earth as a tourist, noticing how the Earth Federation seems to have grown complacent if theirthe immigrationsFeddies' checkimmigration checks and military security are that lax.
* [[Mauve Shirt]]: The manga introduces more characters on both the Zeon and Federation sides. In the case of the ''Albion,'' it has a noticeably larger crew in part because of it stopping at Anaheim HQ and Jaburo before arriving at Torrington Base as in the OVA.
* [[Mega Corp]]: Anaheim Electronics, which by this point is consolidating ever great power especially with the assets (and personnel) absorbed from Zeon's former companies.
Line 31:
* [[Scenery Porn]]: Readers are treated to beautiful vistas, whether it's the classic architecture of Njimegen, African savannah or the quiet Australian coast.
** [[Scenery Gorn]]: Said Australian coast also happens to be the site of [[Mobile Suit Gundam|Operation]] [[Colony Drop|British]]. Not to mention scenes showing bombed-out warzones on Earth and space left over from the One Year War.
* [[Serial Escalation]]: The battles in and around Torrington Base following Gato's [[Gundamjack]] are decidedly more massive, destructive and bloodier than in the OVA.
* [[Tempting Fate]]: Kou, Keith and several other Feddie characters are shown in the early chapters expressing relief that the war's long over [[Ironic Echo|and that nothing could possibly go wrong]].
