This fungus was accidentally brought to America with the Japanese chestnut (which has some resistance) and almost completely ate the American chestnut (which has none).

I am assuming because a) Japanese, as the other person said and b) Gundam is where robots in the future fight bad guys, right? So the invasive chestnut species is the bad guy, therefore Gundam
Also maybe Gundam has time travel, idk. I haven’t watched it so I’m pulling this from thin air. I just know Gundam has cool fighting robots

The chestnut was the vehicle that brought the fungus, kinda like a mobile suit.
