wow, i feel super late since Gwing is my fav. anime of all time to finally find out about FT. I think i heard of it before but i just brushed it aside and really recently caught my full attention. I'm glad its sturring gwing up b/c I felt for this past few years its been dying and not much ppl talking about it around me, while i still liked it a lot, or felt it was back in the shadows.
I been browsing, but haven't read every page. Everyone comments are funny! I don't know if its doing me any good, b/c I downloaded all those 5 chapts that are out now, and well really useless to me when I can't read japanese. Would have been so much better if it was manga so I can satisfy myself looking at pics. Wish they are translated!! So the only information I know is pretty much what is written here and GundamWiki places though it is still pretty much ??? to me. I don't even get why Heero is order to kill Relena. And Dorothy being ESUN president is.. mildly put it, surprising..zeches dead? - no way! Heero frozen up.. .. this better turn out alright and not ruin Gwing image for mee!

New Zechs,
Been reading this thread for a while now, but there are way too many comments and so little time to read ALL of them. Any way just wondering if any one else had thoughts on this "New Zechs" character. I'm thinking he's Relena's son. May be Heero/Relena love child?
The translation I had isn't very clear on the part about New Zechs, and the Peacecraft twins so can any one else help answer my questions; 1. Was New Zechs around before or after Relena's big scne with her brother's mettle mask and becoming President of Mars? 2. About how old is New Zechs, closer to Kathy Po's age or closer to Duo Jr? 3. How old are the Twins? 4. Did the Twins actually do or say any thing or just noted as existing so far? |

1. Before, I'm pretty sure. 2. We have no idea 3. We have no idea 4. We dunno yet, but it's stated they "appear" more fully, so they might. Once we get a hold of the new chapter itself/someone can translate it, we'll know more. |

Man, if there is one thing I hope they touch on at some point is the colony backstories. I'm compiling a massive Gundam Wing timeline (way more accurate than that AboutGundamWing site given my sources) that has a ton of tidbits in it. Here's one that interests me:

I read(on AboutGW ) that A Scythe in My Right Hand, You in My Left Hand? has info on the colonies and their formation but it's canon-ness is in serious question. That tidbit isn't surprising. Maybe I'm weird but I always found the scenes where we saw the different rebel and "terrorist" groups in the series really interesting.

Huh, never seen that quote before. In the English-language Episode Zero timeline, the entry for AC 147 is:

EDIT: I'm curious about this novel, as well, considering it's Duo-centric. I've never been able to find any really good info on it beyond the characters and the basic 'sort of ZERO but not' MS being built. Who wrote it? Last edited by Kitsoru; 2011-01-31 at 19:02. |

Regarding the formation of the Alliance (a la Gundam Wing Encyclopedia):
Quote:
The nifty thing about the Data Gundam timeline in Gundam Ace is that it gives a detailed account of the sidestories: Blind Target (July), Battlefield of Pacifists (August) and the Preventer 5 (April) chapter. Not mentioned: Ground Zero

The thing about the Alliance that I was wondering was that, as Elo said, the Cold War and AD Earth were mentioned earlier on in the chapters, which if I remember correctly was making it sound as if AC was born out of around that era in AD. Or was I reading into it incorrectly and it was just referencing the Cold War? |

Well, that's the thing about Data Gundam... they list these exhaustive pool of resources, many of which I know do not give concrete dates in them :P
And these timelines were published back in 2006 and 2007. Sadly, the one I'm also interested in was from the March 2010 issue (which I don't have any more) that talked about mobile suit manufacturers What chapter was it mentioned in again? I'll go back and look.
