Turn A Gundam, stylized as ∀ Gundam (Japanese: ∀(ターンエー)ガンダム, Hepburn: Tān Ē Gandamu) is a 1999 Japanese Mecha anime series produced by Sunrise and aired between 1999 and 2000 on Japan's FNN networks. It was created for the Gundam Big Bang 20th Anniversary celebration and considered as the eight incarnation to the series. It was later compiled in 2002 into two feature-length movies entitled Turn A Gundam I: Earth Light and Turn A Gundam II: Moonlight Butterfly. Turn A Gundam was directed by Yoshiyuki Tomino, who was the main creator of the Gundam franchise and had written and directed many previous Gundam works. Tomino created the series as a means of "affirmatively accepting all of the Gundam series," which is reflected in the series title's use of the Turned A, a symbol representing universal quantification.
