Having just finished Wing for the first time last month, the show is certainly a trip. While it's not very consistent, as you said it's nuts in an entertaining way

Endless Waltz was badass though, if anything it's worth it for the animation quality

I previously had ordered Pokemon and Viz had released all of Diamond And Pearl up to Sinoh League Victors so I had wanted to catch up those releases. Now on to Sailor Moon.

As for Pokemon holding off until they fully release Black And White. Rival Destinies was due to release.

While not my favorite entry in the franchise, I still really like Wing. Rewatched it and Endless Waltz a few years back and didn't understand why many say it's no good.

For those who do feel the show hasn't aged well though, I recommend reading the "Glory of the Losers" manga. It's really good, even if it does tie into the utter betrayal that is Frozen Teardrop.

Wing was a fun time. It was kind of stupid at times but it wasn't too bad IMO.

I made it through Sailor Moon SuperS.

I can handle whatever this show throws at me.

Starting Sailor Moon R in 4. (43 of 46)

I'll also finish Cobra Kai Series IV on the 25th.

Done with Beast Morphers in May. Once I ship in Zen in a few days I will be a few months behind before seeing Don Bros. Hopefully I can finish Kyo - Kira this year.

I just bought tickets to see Alexisonfire. Finally, after like 14 years of being a fan, I'll get to see them. I'm SO stoked.

Anyway I meant that in a good way. This show is nuts.

Lol, I actually haven't seen it myself, but the relative negativity towards it from the Gundam fandom has somewhat turned me off of it. You all are re-piquing my interest in it, though, so maybe I'll check it out after all.

ZZ is next, though.

Speaking of Gundam Wing, I'm surprised no units from Wing made it into Gundam Evolution

It's been a long, long, LONG time since I was anywhere near the greater Gundam fandom so I wouldn't know.

So long in fact that I can't hear "Gundam Evolution" without thinking for a moment that a long-defunct message board has come back online.

IIRC Wing is one of those "Didn't do so hot at home, did numbers abroad" things so that's probably why.

Of course, then you have EVERY OTHER GUNDAM GAME.

From what I understand, Wing's' popularity has had an inverse relationship between the US and Japan. Whereas here in the US, it started off mega popular and has only died down more and more over the years, over in Japan the show has only grown more and more popular as time has gone on, despite having a pretty below-average showing back when it first aired.
