Really? Only the Winner heirs have a middle name? I never heard of the at before... heck, I can't remember if Quatre's father had a middle name in the series. See, if Sumizawa would have told us that Katrine Oud was created so she could be the next heir to the Winner linage, because Quatre never married and fathered any kids, I think I would be more accepting about her existence. I still don't think that Quatre would clone himself just for this, but it would make much more sense then if he created her just to be spare parts!
Quatre's dad didn't even have a first name in the series. The GW novelization revealed it's Zayeed. And then FT added Tabla as his middle name. A joke about musical instruments apparently.
I still don't see Quatrine's reason of existence to be anything but a gendebent generation xerox requirement. The reasons FT gives us are so ludicrous and contradictory, Sumizawa might as well have said Quatre was just bored. Or that he lost a bet. Whatever.

I'm sure it was the yaoi fandom, because after all, look at them! They look so cute together!!!
*doesn't see it* No wonder, most of the time the only thing they have in common with their fanfic counterparts is their name. The goes for all sorts of fics, especially AUs, but with yaoi it's annoying to see a bloke be turned into a chick. >_>

True again. For the sake of keeping stuff apart Cis would be best I guess.
I busted a gut when Google translate gave me "Sith Marquis." So even Google is cracking Star Wars jokes about FT now. xD

Hm, I don't know. While it's true that Heero and Duo hang out, it's also true that Duo and Quatre seem to be the only ones to keep in touch past the series. In EW it was them who sent the Gundams off to the sun and the whole messaging thing was going on between them as well. Even in the supporting manga like BT we see Duo show up at Quatre's and have some tea with him. With Heero I'd say it's more of them teaming up often for a mission but as far as I remember they're usually surprised to see each other.


Here's also the cover of the new FT chap:
Spoiler for masks galore:


Asagi needs to take an anatomy class. Necks aren't that long.
Also LOL, Katrina dons the Zechs mask and suddenly her hair is the same paler shade of blond as Milliardo's? xD

Knowing them, no it's just an elaborate troll-face for the fans... The Myth Busters proved that yes you can polish a turd... but it's still poo.

And yes in that image for the cover of the chapter the artist needs their eyes examined/should wear their glasses...

Even it was to just introduce us to Generation Xerox, citing that Quatre created her to be an heir rather then spare parts would have been a much better explanation as to why she lives... Granted all this could have been avoid if Quatre, I don't know, groomed one of his many nephews to do the job..? I mean, with 29 sisters, there's bound to be a kid who could take up the mantel, right?

OMG! I took a step back and was like "WTF..? does it mean Smith..?" Although, I must say, that I do like the idea of a Sith Marquis!

I'd say that Heero probably spent the most time with Trowa in the series. An unconscious month (which doesn't really count) and then traveling with him on his mission of self pity and- opps, I mean, his redemption phase when he asked family members of dead Alliance members to kill him for killing their loved ones. And finally, being test pilots for OZ for, what, about a month (the series said)?
Quatre would be runner up, having spent time with him in Sanc before the kingdom fell again.
Duo and WuFei hardly spent any time with Heero... other then being locked up in the same jail cell for close to a month.

I dunno, mate. Saying Quatre needed to clone himself an heir would have every yaoi fangirl squeal in delight, since he'd be obviously gay if he couldn't do it the conventional way. And goodness knows, he's had enough people call him that for dumber reasons.
But whether Quatrine is a cloned heir or cloned spare parts, either way makes no difference to me. With 29 sisters neither makes sense. It's as you say; if he doesn't want kids a nephew would suffice. Heck, I wouldn't mind if Quatrine was Irea's daughter. I don't see why Sumizawa didn't go with that since they already had that relationship. And where did that crap with (married!) Rashid having the hots for Irea come from?

Judging from the other pics that feature King Peacecraft and Cinquante Kushrenada this chapter is most likely another history lesson.

EDIT: Ha, I wonder why I didn't notice this sooner.

Spoiler for Heero and Relena, err, Katrina?:

WHOOOAAAA!!! When did this happen and why did I miss this bit of nonsense?! I thought I read somewhere that Rashid already had a wife, she just wasn't mentioned during the series.

Wow, since I've been gone so much crap has happened!! 0_0

I have a lot of catching up to do.... (Are we still in need of monthly ACE scans anymore? I haven't been buying ACE since my absence either... or updated by blogspot)

Woo, new chapter! Thanks, Deacon. Though it's as you say, 16 pages of pretty much nothing lol. Eh, nice to see they kept the scene at least. I wonder if it'll have any significance that Trowa is still in an airplane. It's not like he cares about Wu Fei's honor stuff, if it's to kill Treize, he'll just ram that thing into the ship, Sally style. xD

Take a look at this relationship chart. At the bottom, above the C of AC there's a little heart. I trust you can read the katakana that spell "Doctor Iria." So yeah. >_>
As for Rashid's wife, yep, her name is Kami who, as you correctly said, wasn't mentioned during the series. Like a boatload of other (important?) people.

True. I'm just pointing out it was more than being locked together in a cell.
One of the most amusing scenes to me is when Heero takes off after basketball and Duo follows and makes some inane comments only to have Heero question him about it and Duo telling him he's just trying to act normal to which Heero answers "you stand out too much." Right, as if Duo was the one who pulled the crazy slam dunk. And if he knew what Heero did in his previous school... xD

I go without reading this thread a while, thinking I'll have a fully fleshed story and some sweet images of the Jedi!Gundams at my disposal, but nooooo. -_- I guess I have no room to complain, though. When did FT even begin? August 2010? This is the most impressive hedging I have EVER seen.

At this point I don't think we'd be able to tell the difference between something being noteworthy in FT and all the exposition and cloning.

My bad. I took "hang out" in the sense of being around each other, regardless of missions or leisure.

That is a pretty long neck. I'll give Asagi a pass on that though. She's been money on all her GW work.

If we're talking strictly the series, then I agree. I was referring more to interaction seen in all the canon GW media.

Thanks Deacon!

Like Izuke mentioned, I'm wondering if the story will be changed with Trowa in the plane. The very brief time he and Trowa were together seems pretty expendable for the manga. It more than likely won't happen, but Trowa ramming the plane into Treize's ship would make the most sense if he really wanted to strike a blow to OZ.

A little off-topic, but I dunno know many of you ship Heero x Relena at all, but I've started to scan a lot of doujinshi which feature them... I'll be posting them up on my blogspot. http://gloryoflosers.blogspot.com/

If anyone wants to translate them, you're more than welcome.
