Shin kidô senki Gundam W

I remember watching Gundam Wing on television years ago, but only recently did I watch it with my full attention. I watched all episodes including Endless Waltz, and came to the conclusion it is a worthwhile watch. It takes a few episodes for the story to really pick up, but once it gets going it follows true to the Gundam franchise and leads towards an epic conclusion. I do have some minor complaints that do not diminish my opinion much, such as the occasional repetition of certain scenes, but do not let this throw you off. Gundam Wing is actually the reason as to how I initiated into my love of Gundams, and I am quite glad that it did so. The characters are likable in their own ways, and it is clear that they represent certain ideals, but the Gundam designs is really where it is at. If you enjoy watching mobile suits fight with unique designs, a plot which does not seem all too far-fetched, then this is a good watch for you. I cannot review full marks, but a still good 9/10

I've had the unique experience of watching this as an 8 year old boy who was completely obsessed with Gundam Wing after my uncle gifted this set of (then) VCD's to me. Back then, my priority was always animation, delivery of action scenes and how 'cool' the Gundams were.

Watching it again 16 years later, not only bought nostalgia but more understanding of what the movie transcends and the meaning the artist who made this wants us to interpret. I'm a financial industry professional, so please don't judge my knowledge of film techniques, but the symbolism and effects are really noticeable this time round watching it.

Everything about Gundam Wing is well thought, and has meaning to it. I may be biased because I did watch it as a child but I can honestly say this is the best anime/tv series I have ever seen just with the character development and continuity of storyline.

So I ask you give this series a chance before knocking it off as another knockoff for kids/teens because it is truly fascinating what this series delivers and I can honestly say I will remember this series for the rest of my life.

I absolutely love this show so much.

Because the reason I love the show it's because it has great story, great music and the characters are really cool, and the Gundams are more modern than the other gundams in Mobile Suit Gundam.

If there's a real Gundam Wing movie someday I will go to see it definetly and I will know the movie will be the best.

I remember seeing the occasional episode of Gundam Wing on Toonami as a kid, but I never truly watched this program. I was given all the episodes on DVD a few years back and finally got round to watching this at the grand old age of 25. Long story short, I am so glad I did! This show was excellent. The story was deep, and I mean DEEEEEP. Each character had its own back story that we slowly learn about as the series progresses. It made us understand more about the main protagonists of the show, along with the enemies. I really felt as thought I knew each of the main characters by the end and it made us feel for them as they had to carry out their respective missions.

The battles were incredible as well. Truly action-packed. The only thing that grated on me was that the Gundams were technically indestructible, being made of "Gundanium alloy". It is sort of reminiscent of Avatar and "unobtainium". That combined with the fact that the other mobile suits (aside from the main ones) were about as useful as star troopers in Star Wars meant that the battles were always one-sided and predictable. Still, lots of explosions made up for this!

All in all, I would highly recommend this show. I am going to start watching the other Gundam series and see if they are as good (if not, better). I have heard good things and I look forward to them!

This was one of the first anime's I ever saw...I remember staying up late to watch it unedited on Cartoon Network.

The story follows Heero Yuy, a young asassin trained to pilot a Gundam Mobile Suit. Him and his team of other Gundam pilots, Duo, Trowa, Quatre, and Chang, against the corrupt and oppressive Earth-Sphere alliance.

The Earth Sphere alliance is lead by Treize Kushrenada and the mysterious Zechs Marquise, who wears a mask almost constantly.

However, the story quickly unfolds into much larger implications.

This is a great anime and in my opinion the best in the saga. The anime has extremely well developed characters with several problems and inner demons. The plot is also great. The animation is smart and the dialog witty.



There are really only a things I didn't like about this show, one was that it didn't really tread much new ground since its predecessors.

I give it an 8/10.
