So my brother loves the Gundam Wing series and he really wants me to watch with him the movie “Mobile Suit Gundam: Hathaway”.

However, I have never really watched the Gundam series as - I was never really into Mecha besides a few animes.

Thus my question is: Can I watch the Hathaway movie without knowing anything about the anime series?

    It should honestly be fine, it’s a pretty standalone entry in the Gundam UC timeline. Though the idea of seeing Hathaway without having watched Gundam 0079, or Char’s Counterattack is interesting.

    Hopefully it will make you want to go back and enjoy the other Universal Century shows. They’re all available on Crunchyroll, and Char’s Counterattack is on Netflix.
