1. Tyrenol

Rolan Cehack is your average soldier of the Moonrace. He's highly respectful of his queen Diana (like all the other "Moonies"), goes to Earth as one of three spies, and has the near-incredible work of finding a job with the Heim household. So when a "coming of age" ceremony gets rudely interrupted by some attacking Moonrace fraction, his near-incredible luck saves him again as he finds the Turn-A Gundam.

All heck ensues as he becomes the pilot of this fabled Gundam. He ends up running damage control between those of Earth (whose technology is reduced to the 18th century) and the Moonrace. And not only that: He dresses up as a girl, fights alongside MS from the Universal Calender, and puts up with the two Heim sisters. One wants to be a pilot (Soshie), and the other (Kiel) is a dead ringer of Queen Diana. Oh, what is a dark-skinned, white-haired lad with a girl's voice to do?

Weirdness aside, this is Yoshiyuki Tomino's genuine work; showing his people how an alternative Gundam world should be done.
