Line 6:
{{tropelist}}
* [[A House Divided]]: It's mentioned that the Earth Federation is rife 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 UC 0082, the first chapter largely following Kou Uraki's time in the academy.
** The manga not only expands significantly on the battle that ensues in and around Torrington Base, but also covers the journey from Australia to Africa in more detail, which was largely handwaved in the OVAs.
* [[Broad Strokes]]: The overall plot is broadly still the same. The devil however, is in the details. Among the more significant ones being the encounter between Cima's fleet and the ''Albion'' as well as how the Immortal 4th MS Team, Burning's old team, don't actually meet up with the main protagonists until considerably later on in the story.
* [[Characterisation Marches On]]: Kou is noticeably book smart this time around, further highlighting his [[Indy Ploy]] tendencies as in the anime. {{spoiler|Especially given how he's able to deduce the functions of GP-01 and GP-02 just by looking at them for a bit.}} His hatred for carrots is still very much the same, though.
* [[Continuity Nod]]:
Line 15 ⟶ 16:
** One of Nina Purpleton's colleagues in Anaheim Electronics is shown making a suspicious comment about working on the ''La Vie En Rose.''
** Alice Miller from ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam The 08th MS Team]]''<ref>The same one who interrogated Shiro Amada in ''The 08th MS Team: Miller's Report''.</ref> makes an appearance, as she's sent to the ''Albion'' by the Intelligence Bureau to investigate the incident in Torrington Base and the GP Project.
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: To a degree. The initial attack on Torrington Base, is shown in more destructive and graphic detail than the OVA.
* [[Determinator]]: Kou Uraki, even as a cadet, is shown for the get-go as ''very'' eager to become a mobile suit pilot.
* [[Follow the Leader]]: Of sorts to ''Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin.'' It helps as well that it's written by one of the key figures involved in the original OVAs.
Line 23 ⟶ 25:
* [[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.
* [[Mildly Military]]: Cima and her men are shown to be this even in the flashbacks, which garners them disdain from the other Zeon forces. {{spoiler|This is also related to Cima's bitter contempt following her unwittingly gassing a space colony back during the OYW.}}
* [[No Social Skills]]: Kou is shown to get so engrossed with mobile suits and combat data that he sometimes forgets that there are people around him.
* [[Noble Demon]]: Anavel Gato, with the manga giving more attention to this side of him. Also, Delaz is revealed to be this as well, given his sincere, borderline fanatical loyalty to Zeon and Gihren Zabi.
* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: Gato manages to arrive on Earth disguised as a tourist...which is basically him wearing a beach shirt and [[Lennon Specs]] with his hair down. When he slips into Torrington Base to [[Gundamjack]] GP-02, he doesn't even bother hiding his appearance other than grudgingly wearing a Federation officer's uniform. It's justified however, given how it's established that no one in the Federation really knew ''what'' the "Nightmare of Solomon" looked like in the first place.
* [[The Remnant]]: Delaz's fleet
* [[Retcon]]: Inevitable, given the nature of the retelling. The most significant being the redesigns for the GP-01 and GP-02, which while still very recognizable look decidedly more updated. It also makes it clear that {{spoiler|the reason Nina doesn't recognize Gato from the get-go is because his back's turned to her.}}
* [[Retraux]]: Sort of. The art style and atmosphere match the ''[[Top Gun]]'' and 1990s feel of the OVAs, though have been given more contemporary touches.
