FINALLY!
Dix-Neuf translates to nineteen in French. I get the name-by-numbers thing but that's still a little strange LOL Love that Duo and Hilde are married,own an orphanage, and apparently adopted a kid. Love even more that Duo bounty hunts and GAMBLES to support it...so priestly XD Epyon II, hmm?... : still holding out hope the Relena pilots a gundam, which probably isn't going to happen -____- : |

Okay so let me get this straight so far: 1. Relena is now President of the Mars Federation, replacing Noin's brother. 2. The Lanigreen Republic, a SECTION of the Mars colony, is declaring independence from the larger Mars Federation government, and is being led by "Zechs Merquise" (whom, it would seem now, is the REAL Zechs/Milliardo... Or is he?? Miyuki's translation makes me second-guess this...) And real!Zechs is as young as he used to be, like Heero and Relena? 3. The ESUN/Preventer wants Relena dead, but it seems they're ALSO Zechs'/Lanigreen Republic's enemy? Sooo.... it's everyone vs everyone, now??? v9_6v Last edited by Kitsoru; 2011-02-25 at 00:11. |

Hey Deacon, quick favor.. What's the kana for Odin Lowe?
Nevermind, I got it. アディン (Odin/A-de-i-nn) For anyone else that's wondering... What a strange transliteration in the Japanese, considering I'm fairly certain that the Russian 'odin' that his comes from (for 'one', and also an actual Slavic/Russian name, written Один either way) is pronounced the same as the Norse god O_o Last edited by Kitsoru; 2011-02-25 at 17:41. |

LOL He's the priest, the big bad priest, the bounty hunter!
Joking aside, I'm not sure if I like Sumizawa's writing style... What's the point of telling us 'Milliardo' is killed only to reveal next chapter that it's someone completely different? And random. On that note, ew, here we go with the incest again. If he likes suspense and cliffhangers and revelations and stuff, well, it would've been enough for me to have the dude's real name. Speculating who Dix-Neuf is would've been more interesting and less confusing than finding out why the heck there are two Milliardos. And the shyamalaning doesn't stop there. So Duo Jr. isn't Duo Jr. and Relena isn't all that evil..? Okay. It was funny in the beginning when Heero was supposedly called the Aurora Princess. Right now it's getting annoying. >_> |

Completely agreed, Ikuze. He is making it as hard as he possibly can to write summaries and update wiki information. 8T I don't even know what's real anymore!
And ... @ Ganota's info... just /)_- EDIT: Another summary for you when you have the time, Deacon, this one is courtesy of REI: http://pixiv.cc/usabiba/archives/2312347.html It seems that later, she will post to describe the CD. Last edited by Kitsoru; 2011-02-26 at 14:08. |

Oh God! in this moment I would prefer FT to be a manga rather a novel! Is just so confusing knowing who is really who...but I guess by this way keep the mistery :P
Anyway, Noin's brother was Mars President mmm...I hope that aging phenomen can be explain, because it's just wtf, but it would explain why Catherine look so cool, Trowa's grey hair and Quatre youth look |

You're right, all he knows is that he killed President Milliardo. My problem is, why Milliardo? If it's Noin's bro Dix-Neuf why make the reader believe it was Zechs? Aside from confusing people it's not even making sense. Why would someone call himself by the name of a terrorist? Or why is a kid that is a carbon copy of someone not related to said person? I'm not sure I can trust Sumizawa to come up with a decent explanation for those. Really, I feel that he's going out of his way to have every new chapter contain some revelation that turns what you took for granted upside down. I guess it's his idea of keeping the reader on edge but in my book confusion does not equal entertainment. Heck, I'm pretty sure Kit groans every time a new chapter is released and she has to edit the wiki all over again. So yeah, sorry if I offend anyone but personally I think his writing style in FT is a bad choice so far, especially for a monthly release.

Can't help but being curious on how is young Duo resemble his dad when he was actually adopted? Can't imagine how Father Maxwell looks like if he aged rapidly. Is he still hyperactive as when he was younger? Quaterine aside. What about Trowa Phobos? How does he able to resemble Trowa? If we are to have a mini-Wufei, wonder if he will look like Wufei? It is interesting to have Quaterine to have a romantic interest in Trowa Phobos. Bet 3X4 fans is "happy".
A lot of other questions about Relena and Heero. How are they put asleep? What is Heero's real name since he was taken care of by his mother before her death? Can't wait to see more of this novel.
