  • April 29, 1989

In Gundam 0080 season 1 episode 6, titled "War In the Pocket," the fighting between the Zeon and the Earth Federation forces escalates. Bernie and Al, who are both from Side 6, a neutral colony situated between the two sides, continue to get involved in the conflict.

Bernie, who is secretly a Zeon spy, has stolen information about the Earth Federation's new mobile suit, the Gundam. He plans to deliver the information to his superiors, but he needs to avoid getting caught by the Federation forces.

In the meantime, Al continues to be impressed by the Gundam's incredible power, and he spends his time drawing and collecting pictures of the machine. However, he doesn't fully understand the seriousness of the situation and the danger he and his family are in by being in the middle of the war.

As the fighting intensifies, a group of Zeon soldiers make their way to Al's colony, hoping to destroy the Gundam. Bernie is hesitant to get involved, but he eventually decides to help his fellow soldiers. However, things quickly go wrong, and Bernie is forced to confront the harsh realities of war.

Throughout the episode, the theme of innocence is highlighted. Al represents the innocence of a child who is unaware of the consequences of war, while Bernie represents the loss of innocence that comes with being involved in a conflict. The episode also explores the idea that war is not always black and white, as Bernie's loyalty to his country conflicts with his growing affection for the people he has come to know in Side 6.

Overall, "War In the Pocket" is an intense and emotional episode that highlights the devastating consequences of war. The characters are well-developed, and the action is gripping. Viewers will be left on the edge of their seats as they wait to see how the conflict between the Zeon and the Earth Federation will play out.
