==Post Disaster==
It is the year Post Disaster 323, that is, over three hundred years after the Calamity War which brought destructive change to Earth's government. Mars has long been colonized, but suffers under crippling poverty, and now some of its colonies are seeking independence.

The Martian city of Chryse is a hotbed of the independence movement, spearheaded by Kudelia Aina Bernstein — the young daughter of an upper-class family. Mars is under the iron-fisted control of Gjallarhorn, the Earth-sponsored state police who monopolizes arms production and Mobile Suit manufacturing.
Enter Chryse Guard Security, a PMC company based off of Mars. CGS's Third Group — made up entirely of Human Debris (orphans taken off the streets and children of extremely poor families) — is given a special assignment: escort Kudelia to Earth to begin informal talks between the Earth government and the Martian independence movement. However, before they can even leave for Earth, CGS is attacked by Gjallarhorn. The adults of CGS's first group order the Third Group to Hold the Line against the attack... while the First Group flee to safety, leaving the Third Group behind as Cannon Fodder.

The leader of the Third Group, Orga Itsuka, is not prepared to take this lying down. He orders Mikazuki Augus, his most loyal supporter and the Third Group's Ace Pilot, to enter the fray with the ASW-G-08 Gundam Barbatos — an ancient mobile suit from the Calamity War era, used by CGS to provide power to their base. Armed with this ancient machine, Mikazuki fends off Gjallarhorn and saves the Third Group. The First Group's casual sacrifice of the Third Group is the last straw in a long line of abuse, and Orga begins taking steps to ensure that the Third Group won't have to suffer such treatment again...

Iron Blooded Orphans is famous for how the series went off the rails in its second season, with the Director and Lead Writer at war with one another leading to a 'kill 'em all' ending where the villains win thanks to the 'heroes' dropping the idiot ball on multiple occasions thanks to spamming a broken-af weapon made up halfway through season 2.
