Gundam SEED · Cosmic Era chronology

Selected history of Gundam SEED’s Cosmic Era, including SEED, DESTINY, Stargazer and FREEDOM. Contains story spoilers.

Calendar

The axis displays native Cosmic Era years: Bloody Valentine is CE 0070, SEED is CE 0071, DESTINY and Stargazer are CE 0073, and FREEDOM is CE 0075. Here CE means Cosmic Era, not Common Era. No definitive conversion to Earth’s AD calendar or Universal Century is asserted.

Year-only records do not invent months or days. The selected-window band spans CE 0070–0075; it does not claim continuous warfare. Arrows follow selected story chronology. DESTINY and Stargazer offer different perspectives within CE 0073 rather than separate calendar eras.

Sources and context

All transferred moments retain their sources, contextual stacks, release notes, shapes, colours and relationships. Release dates remain context cards rather than events on the story-year axis. Selected coverage, not a complete catalogue of every SEED manga or game.

This material has been moved out of the Gundam universes comparison so its native calendar can be read independently.

Dark History connection

Cosmic Era is explicitly included in the 2014 MG Turn X manual’s Dark History framework (manual excerpt). This native-calendar view remains separate for readability; separation does not imply an absence of historical connection. The connected comparison links the eras without inventing a UC/CE conversion.
