Meet Gundam Evolve (ガンダムEVOLVE), an action and mecha anime by Sunrise (2001). Here is the premise in a nutshell. In short: A series of short films packaged with certain model kits and aired at conventions, the Gundam Evolve series chronicles a number of side-stories, alternative scenes, and even bonus omake from all around the Gundam canon. Featuring a mix of animation media—from traditional cels to 3-D CG rendering to even cel-shaded 2-D animation—these often 3-5 minute shorts cover such events as Domon Kasshu's training (and a bit of a romantic tift with Rain.

It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. The run is 15 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
