Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory - The Mayfly of Space
機動戦士ガンダム 0083 スターダストメモリー 宇宙の蜉蝣
Mayfly reveals Cima's backstory in flashbacks as she reflects on her past prior to the events of Episode 13. It reveals that Cima and her unit poisoned a Side 5 colony using G-3 nerve gas, under orders, but were treated as pariahs afterwards by their own countrymen for committing such an atrocity. At the end of the war her superior refused to let her retreat to Axis. Because their home colony Mahal had been converted into a weapon, Cima and her men were left stranded and homeless.

When I read the synopsis of "Cima Backstory" I wasn't sure what I was getting into, but I pleasantly enjoyed this! Animation is beautiful, but its 90s Gundam, so what else is new. I loved this look into Cima's character-- what's there is vague, but I like that. Something so short doesn't need things spelled out for us, I love that we can make our own interpretations as to what happened with her. I think she's portrayed very well overall. Makes me form a deeper connection with her character. Must watch if you got through '83, since Cima was one of the standout characters from that.I probably wouldn't recommend checking this out if you haven't seen '83, though. Criminally low score on here.
