America wanted Gundam Wing 2. Japan had moved on to Turn A. It's unfortunate.
Especially if you were never big into Wing, while the rest of your country couldn't get enough of it.

I wish we would've got the chance to have Turn-A Gundam. The White Doll is a beautiful design, mustache and all, and Turn-X isn't bad either. Plus the story looks like something wonderful.

And I can't say no to a cross-dressing trap.

I always liked that mustache. It was wonderfully silly.

And who can?

Or not, who knows

That was what bothered me about it really. Its the Mayoi arc, yet she isn't really in it until the last 5 or so minutes. The rest of it is just Hitagi talking non-stop. I'm looking forward to it actually getting to Mayoi's story.

Yeah. All of the Monogatari series have that problem, where the character of the previous arc takes the spotlight in the first episodes of the new arc.

It's even worse in Nisemono, it took them like 5 episodes to actually use Karen in her own arc.

That said Hitagi's role gets kinda diminished in the next episode. So there's that.

See, one of the main things I like about WIng is that the pilots were using the Gundams to their full potential as the ultimate machines of destruction. Imagine if Amuro or Kira had actually done that with their Gundams? I kept waiting for Amuro to just go, "You know what, **** you all" and just blow up White Base or something.

It got kinda ridiculous though, specially with Wing/Wing Zero, I mean the Leos blow up even if they aren't hit by the beam of the buster rifle!

The way Wing, HeavyArms, Wing Zero, both Deathscythes, and both of WuFei's Altrons were Overpowered.. it kinda made poor Sandrock look pathetic in comparisn.

Yeah, poor Sandrock, you can go play with your shovels somewhere else.
