5.0 out of 5 stars The turning point in the series!, November 22, 2000

By 

"amanda-sama" (New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing - Operation 5 (DVD)

I've heard some of the episodes on this DVD referred to as the "turning point" in Gundam Wing, and I must say, I couldn't agree more. In these episodes, while for most of the characters, the battle seems to be edging towards their favor, the exact opposite is happening for Quatre. After the assasination of his father, he swears revenge against the colonies which are arming themselves with weapons, and discovers the blueprints for the never finished Wing Gundam Zero... even if you're not an insane raving lunatic Quatre fan like I am, there are moments centered around ALL the G-Boys (except maybe Wufei). Episode 22 focuses mainly on the Oz characters, and episode 23 on Duo; also, there's a GREAT scene involving Trowa in episode 25 that I believe is a crime to miss. My basic point is that these episodes are ESSENTIAL to the series; a must watch for any fans of Gundam Wing. The only reason I don't currently own it is that it hasn't been released yet, and I'm going to strike as soon as it's out...

5.0 out of 5 stars A Gundam Of A Success!, October 14, 2001

By 

Roy Pierce-Jones (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Mobile Suit Gundam Wing - Operation 5 (DVD)

The DVD of Operation 5 is another brilliant installment into the GW saga. It is one of my favourite subplots, with the turn in character of Quatre and his downfall from that loving caring and strong Arab pilot, to the psychotic vengeful killer. We see some of the most tense moments in the entire Gundam Wing series, including the fate of Nanashi, Trowa Barton ('No Name')

The fans of the fighting also get to see new models, including the introduction of the ZERO system; a mind warping and controlling mechanism, installed into the suits to give the pilot the greatest power, yet minimum control over who they should or shouldn't be fighting. Tension builds throughout the entire 5 episodes, a true turning point in the seemingly simple war plot. Now the Gundam Pilots are turning against each other...

What can I say? Episode 25 and 26 of Gundam Wing is the best cliff-hanger I've ever seen in an show (anime or otherwise) ever. You've got Trowa nearly killed, Quatre gone completely insane in an ultra-powerful mind warping mobile suit, heero ready to fight him to the death in the only mobile suit with a shield system, Roamafeller betraying Treize and Lady Une, the rest of the pilots and the scientists running out of air...and sweet mother of mobile suit, that's one awesome ending shot at the end of Episode 25! One of the best battles in the whole series is Heero vs. Quatre, and when Lady Une gets shot...let's just say that I was in shocked disbelief (near tears) over the death of a character that I once loved to hate. If you get only one Gundam Wing dvd, get this one. And watch "The Gundam They Called Zero". You won't regret it.
