5.0 out of 5 stars Very Cool, July 26, 2000
This review is from: Gundam Wing #1 (Paperback)
I got this book at Borders today-er, technically yesterday as it's almost 2 AM-and was trying to convince myself to finish what I was doing (writing a very in depth summary including like ALL dialogue for GW ep 4: Nightmare at Victoria) when I decided to start reading it on my way to the bathroom. I started reading (and unfortunately had to stop after my little break), and pretty soon got so hooked I had to stop in the middle of my summary to read. After that I didn't pause except to hit the record button on the VCR for Gundam Wing: Uncut (can you tell I'm obsessed?) until I was done. It was great. The story line was kinda different and moved a lot quicker but that always seems to happen in manga to anime (like Sailor Moon) or anime to manga (like GW). My favorite part was the Chibi Domon W at the end-the characters were so cute! And, naturally, it was hysterical. (Relena got a lot of attention, which pleased me cos she's my fav.) My only problem besides the slight change in plot and speed of events was that Heero seemed...different. He seemed to have less of that "antisocial, thinks he's Evil Kanievel (sp?), and hardly speaks" thing goin' on, and of course the fact that Duo never got a chance to say that made me a bit upset. Yet I'm finding myself reaching to read it again before I even read my other book which i stopped in the middle of (2099 number six: firestorm. read it) despite the fact that it's a real sit on the edge of your seat type book. But I'm not here to review that. Read the first GW graphic novel. It's great.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gundam Wing Pocket Mixx, July 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Gundam Wing #1 (Paperback)
If you like Gundam Wing you'll like this book. I do, see 5 stars ^_^. It's more in depth than the TV series in the explanations of the operations and the gundams and their pilots. I you HAVE seen the series you HAVE to buy the book you'll like just as much, if not more than the series. The bonus chibi DomonWing comics are very very cute and make heero seen insane, and therefore actually FUNNY. Buy this, you LOVE it!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Manga I've Seen Yet, July 25, 2000
By 
Arwen (A Small Town In NC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gundam Wing #1 (Paperback)
If you are a Gundam Wing Fan this is definately a MUST READ book. The storyline moves quickly but at the same time it describes in detail the different operations and the different characters and how they fit into the story. It does follow a slightly differnt storyline then the animated series, but from some points I believe it did a better job. Again, if you have watched the animated series you absolutely must read this book. There is a little language but it's still one of the best mangas I have ever read and I have read quite a bit.
