Like I remember watching Episode 6, Party Night. Then i missed a couple weeks. Then all of a sudden there's this weird thing called Zero Gundam, Zechs is trying to operate this thing called the Zero System, Relena is some kind of queen of a new kingdom and I was like WTF?
The storyline was undoubtedly epic, but that means you really can't afford to miss an episode. |
Two words: Trowa Barton. I had no interest in cartoons at the time, I was too cool for school, all that tween bullshit. Suddenly, theres this deep, emotionless guy, with a weird haircut, who controlled a giant robot with a gatling gun. I was enthralled. I might say, if it had not been for GW, I probably would've never ended up coming to this site. Isn't that a kick in the butt? |
To be honest Trowa and his gundam were my least favorite.
I alway found that I related most with Duo (big surprise there. A loud smartass ). His gundam was also pretty cool. _________________ Support me on Patreon!

Well I later became a fan of Heero. It was Trowa that got me into the whole bit. And while my tastes have evolved and I've experienced more of the Gundam universe, Wing still stands as my favorite. _________________ "...at first it's fine and you think you have a dark side – it's exciting – and then you realise the dark side wins every time if you decide to indulge in it.

G was cool because just about every episode was Gundam on Gundam. I mean, its no where near the calibur of Wing in terms of story or character development, it's meant to be a more fun series. Also, in the final battle, they featured various Gundams from older series, and a cameo from Wing Gundam, from the then still unaired Gundam Wing. My second favorite series stands at 08th MS Team. Short and sweet, it's an awesome show. _________________ "...at first it's fine and you think you have a dark side – it's exciting – and then you realise the dark side wins every time if you decide to indulge in it.
