Would that be a manga version?
I guessing that it would have to be set after the series but before Endless Waltz. Based on AboutGundamWing.com's timeline, Blind Target takes place during Spring AC196 and Battlefield of Pacifists take place in Summer AC196. So I'm guessing that the serialization would take place in the fall. |

wingzerosnuggles, you've got some glaring issues with your initial post. I'll clarify.
First, Yoshiyuki Tomino does not consider Gundam Ace canon. Canon is not even a Japanese word. Even if he did consider it official, his word means nothing. Sunrise has more or less mandated that if it isn't animated (a la series, movie or OVA), then it isn't official. There are varying degrees of "gray" that manga and games fall in, but for the most part they aren't recognized as official. Second, Newtype and Gundam ACE are two separate publications. Ngee Khiong mislabeled the Gundam Wing pages as coming from Newtype when they are from Gundam Ace.

Oops, sorry. Goes to show how accurate Wikipedia is. @_@
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gundam_Ace That's where I got the bit about Tomino: Gundam Ace is considered canon by Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino. But thankies for the correction! |

Washu: I don't think so. mike_s_6 mentioned that Dorothy's ESUN president:

The Earth Sphere Unified Nation was formed at the end of the television series. In Endless Waltz, we see the President and his grand daughter taking talking about Mariemaia and what not.
Interesting to hear that the original project was scrapped. Apparently it was going to have some viewpoints of Treize and what not. New Mobile Report Gundam Wing: Frozen Teardrop

Ah right...forgot about that. Relena was VFM during Episode 49.
And whoa... since Kathy's carrying the Po surname and is Wufei's subordinate, I'm assuming Wufei's not the baby daddy. Well, that's one ship sunk. xD Also, Dorothy's middle initial is T? *immediately thought of Tiberius as in James Tiberius Kirk* Looking forward to what that mysterious data is. |

Thank you so much Deacon Blues!
I know Autumn AC195 pertains to that time Heero masqueraded as Duo at a school. Relena and elderly people? So Heero becoming a popsicle was Dr. J's plan? WTF?! Is Heero the Sleeping Beauty? I wonder how he'd feel about being called "Aurora Princess." Seriously, Sumisawa... T_T Or is the "Aurora Princess" referring to Relena? *shrugs* And did Duo really become a priest? OMG, is Hilde the baby mama to that boy?! Typical of him to name the kid after himself. xD *evilly hopes this permanently sinks 1x2 canon theorists* Meehlimo: I'm guessing it's about as canon as all the other sidestories (Blind Target, Battlefield of Pacifists, The Last Outpost, etc.) Semi-canon, I guess. The only sidestory that got canon status was Episode Zero since it's a prequel (also by Katsuyuki Sumisawa who's writing Frozen Teardrop and head writer for the TV series) that was meant to be animated but something went awry and we ended up with two recap episodes instead (27: The Locus of Victory and Defeat and 28: Passing Destinies). |

Lugia: Well, you never know. After all, Sumisawa was also a scriptwriter on both Yakitate!! Japan and Inu-Yasha: The Final Act. Both Sunrise projects thought the former is a comedy and the latter is shounen with romance. That might have influenced his writing.
RAVNEN: At the end of EW, we saw Zechs and Noin in a shuttlecraft though. No capsule usage for them. Rising Dragon: At this point, anything's possible. xD |
