''Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny'' is the sequel to the ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED]]'' anime series; it is the tenth televised series in the [[Long Runner|long-running]] ''[[Gundam]]'' franchise and the second to be set in the Cosmic Era [[Alternate Universe]]. ''Destiny'' has some thematic ties to ''[[Zeta Gundam]]'', similar to the relationship between ''[[Gundam Seed]]'' and ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' (though less pronounced that ''SEED'''s pseudo-remake status); these include ''SEED'' characters, now [[Older and Wiser]], reappearing in ''Destiny'', and a very similar [[Romance Arc]] in ''Destiny'' and ''Zeta''.

'''''Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny''''' is the sequel to the ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED]]'' anime series; it is the tenth televised series in the [[Long Runner|long-running]] ''[[Gundam]]'' franchise and the second to be set in the Cosmic Era [[Alternate Universe]].

''Destiny'' takes place two years after the end of ''SEED'', and follows the story of Shinn Asuka, a young [[Born Winner|Coordinator]] and ZAFT pilot. A surprise attack on a ZAFT military base and the subsequent [[Gundamjack]]ing of three of ZAFT's new [[Super Prototype]] Gundams kicks off a sequence of events that results in a second full-scale war between ZAFT and the Earth Alliance. However, things are not as clear-cut as they seem at first, and questions arise over which side of the conflict is really in the right. About halfway through the series, much of the cast from ''[[Gundam Seed]]'' returns to the spotlight, and the series gradually shifts to their POV, considerably changing the tone of the series.

* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Kira is the king of this trope. {{spoiler|Especially after he gets the Strike Freedom.}}

* [[Big No]]: Athrun's agonized cry when {{spoiler|Kira is apparently killed in his climactic duel with Shinn}}. The English version is especially gut-wrenching.

* [[Black and Gray Morality]]: Pretty much explains the series. While there are lots of [[~~Alternate~~ Character ~~Interpretations~~]], both in-universe and out, all of the characters have reasons for fighting, some with better motivation than others. Infact, the only truly (unquestionably) evil character in the series is [[Complete Monster|Djibril]].

* [[Blade on a Stick]]: Abyss Gundam's beam lance, which also has actual metal blades.

* [[Blind Idiot Translation]]: Del Rey's treatment of the SEED Destiny manga. [[Meaningful Name]]s are butchered to the point of losing their meaning, and ''basic punctuation and grammar'' are ignored.
