New Mobile Report Gundam Wing

I've been caught in the Gundam mania that swept this country ever since Gundam Wing first aired on Toonami. I already had many Gundam model kits, including the Wing Zero that I bought overseas years ago, before I really even knew what Gundam was. Gundam Wing is rather complicated, and I had to watch it numerous times before I could understand and follow the plot twists, story arcs and shifts in alliances. Fortunately I had no problems catching the reruns. That is part of what makes anime so intriguing to me--the desire to watch it again and again but still gain some new insight with each viewing. Gundam Wing is a serious anime, and I have often wondered how younger viewers would respond to the philosophical overtones and political bent of the series. Nevertheless, Gundam Wing has been very well received and is still wildly popular. The success of Gundam Wing made it the only alternate universe Gundam series to spawn a sequel (Endless Waltz). All pictures were drawn in pencil. Someday I'll get around to coloring them.

	The G-boys (L to R): Quatre Raberba Winner, Duo Maxwell, Heero Yuy, Trowa Barton, and Chang Wu-Fei.
	Wing Gundam Zero, the prototype for the five Gundams sent to Earth for Operation Meteor. This Gundam was so powerful, that its designers were fearful and never constructed it.
	"Omai o korosu." ("I'll kill you.") Heero utters those famous words. Why Relena persists to chase after a guy who said he'd kill her is beyond me (Episode 1 - The Shooting Star She Saw)
	Relena reacts to her father's assasination by pulling a gun on somebody. Well, at least that was before she discovered her true lineage as the princess of a defunct pacifist nation. (Episode 5 - Relena's Secret)
	Anime characters often go around with their eyes closed (Episode 13 - The Whereabouts of Happiness)
	Noin sees Heero and Duo for the first time since the conclusion of Gundam Wing (Endless Waltz)
	Heero looks out over the space colony X18999 (Endless Waltz)
