Again, having feathers to me is like having a giant teddy bear taking down QuanT in a fist fight, and expect me to take it seriously. I have a limited tolerance for inconsistent artistic expression. - Tak

Yup, just like it doesn't make much sense to have a beam scythe. It's all done for the symbolism and GW is chock-full of it. It still makes one wonder where Trowa got that mask... |

That aside, I do like Wing because, as with most people, it was what got me into Gundam [actually, what got me into mecha and anime in general] when it was on TV back in the 90s. Tallgeese. Very much Tallgeese. Also to weigh in on an earlier point; whenever I mention Gundam generally, the response is usually 'oh, Gundam Wing?' That's not to say the people I know prefer Wing to other Gundam shows; as far as they know, 'Gundam Wing' is just what the entire franchise is called. And I hang out with animation students and my university's anime club.

But awesome grunt model kits aside, every time I watch Wing (which is very rare), I wanted to beat the fu@%#^$ @#%! out of Heero. That kid frustrates me to no end. SHOW SOME LIFE mutha@#%*$&!!!!
Whenever Heero shows up on screen, it reminds me of a bad meal I had, that at the end, I wondered how the hell I managed to finish the whole thing? I don't even want to get into Setsuna's case, but I think Allelujah Haptism sucked the life out of him and became half-insane as a result. - Tak

It wasn't often but Heero showed emotion a number of times in the series.

Also, as far as I know their back stories were supposed to be animated but production was a mess, so they didn't. If one considers that we get the actual second opening of GW one episode before the finale, I believe it's true. There are also more than enough nods to Episode Zero before episodes 27 and 28 (where it was supposed to be). As such, I'd argue it not seeming to be on general release. Heck, we even get nods to it in EW. Quote:
Spoiler for in response:
And he loves throwing hissy fits. "I shouldn't have opened my parachute!", "Why can't I kill her?!", "This was a miserable mission! I totally messed up!" :V |
