With Hiro as the pilot, Takumi as the builder, Kentaro as the programmer, Nakamura as the commander and Sota as the gunsmith, they are once again aiming for the national tournament. But there are various crises that await them in adolescence. Goodbye to friends, feuds with rival teams… an ensemble youth drama of high school students who keep their dreams and friendships in their hearts and grow little by little through competition in the Gunpla battle.
