Summary: Gundam 06!
Review: For all of you epyon fans out there, this is the dvd to get! You see as Treiz introduces Epyon, his "secret" weapon to Heero. Heero takes the Epyon out for a spin, he notices that Epyon has a striking similarity in that of the Wing Zero. You'll see Heero go completely mad as he terrorizes mobile suit pilots, mauling through every mech suit in his path with Epyon. Great fight scenes, tons of action, a must have for all Gundam fans!

Summary: this rocks
Review: i love these epsodes (mostly because i am in them). don't i rule? i may not have a twin buster rifle or dragon fangs, but i have the strongest beam saber! so buy this dvd! it's got some of the best episodes in the entire series. in these episodes, heero gets really close to being blown to bits inside of his own wing gundam by a virgo mobile doll when a crazy leo pilot saves him. heero goes to some mansion looking place after the leo pilot says something like: "protect master treize, i beg you" and then dies. heero, being the cold-hearted gundam pilot that he his, leaves him there..... this is taking too long. anyways, treize gives him me, the epyon to take out for a spin and heero goes nuts and kills everything that moves. there, finished.

Summary: The Gundam pilots make their return
Review: In these five episodes, the Gundam pilots make their return after the Lunar Base incident. In episode 35, Heero and Quatre become students at the Sanc Kingdom. It is there that Heero reaquires his Gundam 01 and meets the war crazed Dorthy Catalonia. Soon, the remaining members of the Treize faction are taken in by the Sanc Kingdom as refugees, but Romefeller refuses this. While trying to destroy the Treize faction, Noin mobilizes the secret white Torus units to assist. In episode 36, Duo is hiding out in a colony with Hilde only to be welcomed by Trent with the Wing Zero. Duo is forced to pilot the Wing Zero and is overcommed by the Zero system. When Romefeller comes to stop this test, Trent throws Duo out and destroys the attacking mobile dolls. Duo heads back to kill Trent with 02 and ens up sending Trent drifting in space. In episode 37, Zechs attacks the mobile dolls headed for Luxemburg while Heero heads off there as well. In episode 38, while the Trieze faction fights off Romefeller, Trieze gives Heero the speical Gundam, Epyon. The Epyon has been equiped with a speical Zero system on it. Meanwhile, Trieze abandons the Talgese in the middle of a battle and switches over to the Wing Zero. In episode 39, Trowa is found by Katherine and Wu Fei is now infuriated with rage after seeing his colony destroyed. Zechs trys to ally himself with Wu Fei, but to no prevail. The disc menu is setup like the Wing Zero system. The only extra is the Epyon gallery and bio along with trailers. There is a nice trailer for Gundam 0079 I should add. The Japanese language is somewhat better than the English version which sounds ok, but gets a little boring. One thing I hate is that I'll have to wait for Operation 8 in order to see the second opening. Even though the main menu features it. Overall, a very entertaining disc that makes me want to buy the next volume so fast.

Summary: Great series
Review: INTRODUCTION:
Ever since the late seventies, the Gundam series has been one of the most successful and widely-loved anime series in the world. It has become a favorite of many over the years. There have been several different sub-series over the years, and one of the most popular ones of which is the Wing series, released in the mid-nineties. This is a DVD featuring episodes fromt that series. Read on for my review.

BASIC PLOT:
The Gundam Wing series follows the exploits of five young men who pilot mobile suits against the forces of an organization seeking world domination. There's Heero (the main man), Duo (the cool guy), Trowa (the quiet guy), Quatre (the peace-lover), and Wufei (the overconfident hothead.) The battle rages on for forty-nine episodes, and as the series progresses, a number of plot twists keep things interesting. This is a rare example of a series where the characters aren't paper thin - they continue to evolve as the series progresses. This is one of the best anime series out there, as one of the best mecha series.

SERIES OPINIONS:
To put it simply, this is an excellent series. Many fans of the Gundam series call this the best sub-series of all, and honestly, who can blame them? The storyline is great, the animation is great, the characters are great - everything about this series is great. It's good to see the series get a long overdue DVD release in America.

DVD:
These DVDs are good, because they contain several uncut episodes, but they're bad in that they don't contain any special features (that is, other than the very basic DVD stuff.) The series is one of the greatest anime series out there, but don't expect any bonus material.

OVERALL:
Overall this is an excellent anime series, and I recommend it to any anime or mecha fan. If you like either one, this series will not disappoint.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Saga Continues.... SUIT UP!
Review: No Spoilers Here...

This DVD continues the saga established in the previous six discs with everyone's favorite fine young Gundanium mecha pilots still struggling to find peace, themselves, happiness and a place in the ever changing world After Colony 195. As with any serialized program like Gundam Wing, it is rather important for the viewer to have some (or a lot) of knowledge about the current state of affairs in the series prior to viewing this disc or a serious case of "WHAT?" could result.

Operation 7 covers a fair amount of ground and introduces some new characters as well as filling in NUMEROUS details about some character relations and personal information about the mechs as well as their pilots and those who seek to help them / protect them / steal them away / destroy them... can't someone just hold these boys close and leave them alone... perhaps on Operation 8??? No flashback filled episodes and while there are a great deal of romance and intrigue, this disc disc ups the ante on combat and strives to bring the reality of combat even closer than before.

A master work continues [and my japanese friends say that this is "Kiddie" gundam... can't wait for the "serious" Gundam] to build on a strong foundation.

The DVD transfer and encoding is a great improvement on the previous disc including a MUCH smoother transition feature and at least some attempt to incorporate better "extras" and some better use of the advantages of the digital technology. The trailers and additional materials are a nice touch and overall this disc looks MUCH better over all... about time, BANDAI.

My copy of Endless Waltz is STILL sealed and awaiting the last "episode" DVD to be released.

!3x4/4x3!

Summary: And its name is Epyon
Review: We finally get to see where Trowa went to. Trowa had been missing ever since Heero fought Quatre in Wing Zero. Trowa is at the same circus he was during the first part of the series, but he forgets who he is and thinks he is Catherine's brother.
WuFei makes his return as well in his new gundam.
Duo gets to be in the Wing Zero for a brief time and almosted destoryed the colony Hilde is on. Duo attacks Wing Zero but doesn't destory it.
Heero and Quarte are at the sanc kingdom. Heero goes to fight for the Trize Fraction and meets Treize. Treize gives Heero a new mobile suit called Epyon. Epyon is much like Wing Zero. Heero destorys everybody in the battlefield, including the Trize Fraction.
This DVD features a new menu compared to the other menus of the older DVDs.
