Summary: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
Review: When I first heard that a TV show about the little robots on mybrother's desk, I was delighted. It has a wonderful, involvingstoryline, with detailed personalities, such as Heero Yuy, Duo Maxwell, Trowa Barton, Quatre Rabeba Winner, and Wufei Chang. This is a good offer, and it will introduce you to the world of Gundam Wing.

Summary: WOW! It's finally here!
Review: Gundam wing epitomizes one of the greatest and largest stretching anime's in Japan, Starting in 1979 with mobile Suit Gundam wing 0079 the series has progressed throughout these past 20 years, up to it's latest incarnation Mobile Suit Gundam: The 08th MS Team: Miller's Report Movie; which premiered August 1998 in Japan.Encompassing a string of more than 400 episodes Gundam wing is probably by far the longest stretching anime Japan, or the US has ever seen. Although we are only getting 49 of those episodes, the episodes we are getting are absolutely amazing, especially since they have never deviated from the original Gundam released back in 1979. Perhaps the best feature of this series is that they have maintained the original anime style that was apparent from the late 70's to the early 80's. It's sad that a lot of today's animes don't maintain that high standard. The standard with which we are all familiar with, anime titles such as Voltron, Thundercats, Transformers, series which we knew and love. The same quality and epic proportion of those series is continued on making Gundam and amazing world, as well as an amazing show. On the visual level, Gundam wing is pure eye candy, from the giant Gundams, to the battles, to the interaction of the characters. All have been drawn beautifully, and this series is worth buying just to watch it as it unveils it's splendor. But Gundam wing can't just be enjoyed on the visual element, it must be enjoyed with all facets it has to employ, story line, visual, emotional, it's attention to detail, everything. Gundam was a series that was meant to be enjoyed on all levels that a story can offer. And boy does it do it well. 5 stars all the way!

Summary: The Best Anime Show There Is!
Review: Gundam wing is about five 15 year old pilots of Mobile suits called Gundams, who were sent down from colonies in space, to destroy the OZ organazation. The five pilots Heero Yuy, Duo Maxwell, Trowa Barton, Quatre Reberba Winner, and Chang Weifa are in for the battle of their lives-but hey, it's just a life! This is the best anime that I have ever seen, the plot is hard to follow at times, but the show makes you think-which is a good thing! I watch it on cartoon network (while the uncut versions I tape at midnight). This show contains no sex or nudity, but contains blood, language and violence, all in all, it's an awesome show! A MUST SEE for every anime fan!

Summary: A Show That Shatters The Bonds of Amination
Review: It's really impossible for me or any (American) to understand what an impact this series has had upon Japanese pop culture in the last 20 years. To call this show "Japan's Star Trek" is not the most fair of analogies, but probably the most correct. Spanning an entire campaign of merchandise, from models to action figures, board games and videos, this series has been very much alive in the minds of the world, but not so much America. At the humble beginnings of a TV show entitled Mobile Suit Gundam 0079 (a play on the year 1979), few foresaw the rise of this franchise in one of the longest and mostly enduring of its kind in history. Using the then revolutionary idea of giant mechanical suit as tools of warfare was what first grabbed the attention of the audience. But the deep and complex plot and themes exhibited by a vast array of honest and believable characters was what kept them on the edge of their seat. Now, skip ahead to the (distant) year 2000. A new show has emerged that embodies all the visual ferocity and structural complexity of the original, and that show is, Gundam Wing. To say this is a "action" show is really a half-truth, and first time viewers (of anime period!) may find the themes and characters equal if not superior to any political drama today. What I love so much about this series is that almost no single character or group can be considered as "bad." And, it's in breaking down the walls of stereotypical sci-fi writing that makes this show (and all its predecessors) so revolutionary. When the series begins, everyone is SURE they know who is "good" and who is "bad." But (without giving away any of the plot) I guarantee their opinions will change so many times they may gust give up guessing. And it's when one becomes completely and utterly stumped by the ambitions of the characters, that they actually begin WATCHING the series. The quick, and almost dare-devil battles mixed with gut-wrenching conclusions throw back to the age of the cinema serials, a feat not easy to do, and therefore deserves the most praise. But, I suppose it's about time I mentioned some things pertaining to the product itself. I'm very glad this series is being available in the style it is. 5 uncut, bilingual episodes for under $25 dollars is a steal, and a must-have for ANY true Gundam Fan. Rest assured I will forgo any amount of sleep necessary to continue watching the Midnight Run of this fantastic series on TV, as I encourage all other Gundam Fan(atics). Hang on, it's sure to be a wild ride!

Summary: Gundam rocks!
Review: When I found out Gundam was coming to Cartoon Network I was overjoyed. When I found out it was Gundam Wing and not Mobile Suit Gundam 0079 I was disappointed. I tuned in for the first episode on March 6th and was amazed. I loved it. I've been watching the show ever since. The characters are all awesome, especially Duo Maxwell, Zechs, and Traize. The mecha are first class and the action top notch. And even better Cartoon Network has an "uncut" version for more mature viewers. My only complaint is that it is more superhero like than Mobile Suit Gundam, which was more of an anti-war action story with deeper characters and a much more serious storyline. Nevertheless, a GREAT show.

Summary: Gundam Wing is the best anime I've seen ever!!!
Review: Gundam Wing, is simply the best anime there is. I have always been a DBZ fan, and tend to like heavy action based anime, and Gundam Wing has everything that an anime should, Action, Romance, Suspense, and suprises. I would give this series 100 Stars If I could, but 5 will do. The character I hate the most in this series is the Mobile Doll's chief enginer, his character just makes you want to hate him, a well designed character. Summery, Gundam Wing the best anime ever!

Summary: Characters in GW
Review: Gundam Wing is one of the best animes that I have seen. The characterization is superb. From Heero, trained from youth to be the "Perfect Soldier," to Duo, always smiling even though everything he's ever loved has been destroyed, the boys' motivations are true to life when they come to light. The most hated character I have come across is Wufei, because of his chauvanistic attitude. I have one thing to say...Watch the whole series and find out his reasons for being as such...Gundam Wing is a heart-wrenching story about both the evils and neccessity of war. A definite must-see!
