whose fucking good idea was it to put 5 edgy as fuck gary stus as the main leads
Duo wasn't edgy, but for some reason was given the edgiest Gundam.
>>13878002
>Quatre
>edgy
>>13878002
Nobody ever said that anime writers were good at what they do.
>>13878002
It's Gundam WING
The edges make it more aerodynamic
Come on OP
>>13878012
When I was younger I hated Quatre but as I got older and rewatched Wing I learned he was the only sane fucker with a Gundam and wasn't a huge asshole like the other save for Duo.
Duo and Quatre were the normal guys the other three were some degree of fucked in the head and shitty people.
>>13878002
Because it worked for Saint Seiya and it worked for Samurai Trooper, and both of those sold like fucking hotcakes, so that format got its dick stuck in everything in the early-mid 90s.
See also Dagwon, Chouja Reideen, etc.
>>13878021
>asshole
>Trowa
Bitch please. The only asshole was Wufei, Heero was just pure potato salad.
>>13878002
Gundam wing is basically super sentai
they all have 5 indestructible lead characters
>>13878002
Sunrise were experimenting with a way to launch a new Gendum IP without relying on UC.
G was made for the boys demographic, and W was made for girls.
Neither was smash hits, so they would continue to experiment with Turn A and G-Saviour before giving up and making SEED as a UC rehash.
>>13878106
>Neither was smash hits,
You retarded?
>>13878002
Fuck you Duo was actually enjoyable and should have been the main focus.
>>13878106
But Wing was relatively successful in Japan and a huge hit in the west.
>>13878002
Best Gundam series
prove me wrong
>>13878269
Neither G nor W got sequels.
>the west
If the west were a priority, G-Saviour would've been released here.
>>13878002
Duo wasn't edgy.
>>13878288
Wing got an OVA sequel that was later rereleased as a movie.
>>13878269
Wing was big in Japan and is still one of the most popular series.
>>13878288
Wing got Endless Waltz.
>>13878002
Doesn't matter. It was a brilliant idea, apparently, people absolutely loved wing, for some reason.
>>13878021
Quatre was the only one with genocidal tendencies though.
Hero was pretty insane, Trowa was emotionally stunted, Wu Fei was a bitter autist and Quatre, deep down, was pretty disturbed as well.
Duo was the santest, but only with Quatre he could hold an actual converastion.
Wufei wasn't edgy
Trowa wasn't edgy
Quatre and Duo are nowhere near the edge scale
Only Heero is edgy
>>13878021
>>13878311
>there are people who do not think wufei is one the most normal people
>>13878314
trowa was edgy bro
I have no name
I only know how to kill
I was a ms mercenary when I was a child
I stick my hand into a lion cage
>>13878002
>Gary Stu
You mean the entire cast?
>>13878002
Me. It was mine. The West ate it up like tea cakes.
>>13878435
Goddammit Euzeth.
>>13878069
Toku apologists need to LEAVE
>>13878342
Chang, shouldn't you be complaining about women?
>>13878002
Girls are into that
>>13878056
>it worked for Saint Seiya
What. The only one who could be described as edgy was Ikki, the others were fine.
There's basically nothing in common between SS and Wing aside from the fact that the main characters are five pretty boys. the overall tone, their personalities and the way they function as a group are all completely different.
>>13878002
>edgy
Only 2 and half.
>>13878342
>trowa was edgy bro
>I have no name
>I only know how to kill
>I was a ms mercenary when I was a child
>I stick my hand into a lion cage
Trowa was just joking, anon. He's a clown after all. Clowns aren't edgy, are they?
>>13879845
>Clowns aren't edgy, are they?
they can be
>>13878007
It was to balance him out. He wasn't allowed to be too best.
>>13878311
>Duo was the sanest, but only with Quatre he could hold an actual converastion.
This is true, but only with Trowa could Quatre hold an actual jam session.
Man, other than torrenting, where can a guy find some gundam to watch? I've seen those DVD prices, and they're nuts. Are they available on streaming or anything?
>>13880169
why not buy some chinese bootleg DVD set. i bought one of ebay for $20 came with english dub, japanese dub, and subtitles in english and chinese.
>>13879688
>not knowing backstory and context of why wufei says women are weak
>>13880939
To be fair, you have a to read a manga to get that.
I honestly hate that "read the backstory to find out!" shit, but wasn't this supposed to be an episode in the first place?
>>13880127
Only now, do I realize how 90s!! this scene is.
>>13878007
The edgiest nickname, too.
>>13880967
Yeah, episode zero was supposedly supposed to take place during the recap episodes in the middle.
