Unlike most entries in the Gundam franchise which are attempts at reasonably serious space opera, Mobile Fighter G Gundam (1994) was aimed squarely at children, and corrrespondingly less effort was put into the series' fictional setting. The Earth having been rendered fairly inhospitable by pollution and environmental decay, the nations of the world build orbital space-colony city-states to which their elites emigrate, leaving the other 90% of humanity behind to rot on the decaying homeworld. The plot of the series has to do with a quadrennial gladiatorial contest to decide which colony will rule all the others, plus Earth — basically a shallow pretext for the real meat of the series, frequent and increasingly preposterous giant-robot donnybrooks.

The flag of Neo-America, the US space colony, is shown in episode 2. The contemporary flag of
the parent nation, defaced in a convenient spot with a gold lightning bolt (or
possibly a stylized 'N'?). I don't know why there are only four stars — maybe the
colony consists of four state-like subdivisions? or maybe the animators just got
bored. I certainly did.

A brief
glimpse of the flag of Neo-Italy in episode 1 would suggest that the other colonies'
flags probably follow the same uninventive convention — the contemporary flag of
the parent nation, defaced in a convenient spot with a gold lightning bolt (or
possibly a stylized 'N'?).
