Jul 06, 2012Megan M rated it it was amazing · review of another edition
I have no words for how great it feels to sink back into Gundam Wing, one of the first anime I ever watched. Now I'm 10 years older and the characters get better with every revisit. In this volume, we learn about the pilots before they were pilots, from Wufei's wife to Quatre's frustration over his birth. It's amazing to read this, then rewatch the series, understanding where they pilots are coming from. I definitely suggest this manga if you're a fan of the series. It fills in so many details t...more

Gundam Wing is probably the first anime series I ever watched that was completely serious and mostly mature. I've recently started re-watching in on DVD and, after reading Episode Zero, it's an even more epic story.
Episode Zero is aptly named because it is the prequel to the Gundam Wing series. It was also supposed to be an actual pair of episodes for the show, but instead they did two recap episodes of the previous events in the series before the whole Sinq Kingdom and White Fang story-arcs beg...more

I think I have a penchant for prequels, because I tend to like 'origins' stories too much. This is perhaps why I love Episode Zero the most among the Gundam Wing mangas.
The pilots as shown in the TV series are pretty much cloaked with mystery, and this well-written and well-drawn volume sheds light on some of those enigma. We learned who Heero is before he decides to pilot the Wing; we discovered how Duo Maxwell got his name and why he always wears priest's clothes; we found out a little about...more

In this manga it is taking place in our world. The unadequate thing is that in this manga there are robots. This robots are the size of skyscrappers. This robots are also very advanced. They are so advanced that they have the same mobility as the human body. The bad thing is that it requieres a pilot. This pilot is located in the head of the robot. The name that they give to this robots are gundams. The pilots of the gundams are bad and evil. Most of the gundam pilots are very greedy. So they fi...more

I’m a sucker for character’s backstories and tie-in expansions for worlds I’m already a fan of, and this book falls smack dab in the middle of both.
You get to see the pivotal moments that make the Gundam pilots who they are and how eerily connected everything is in the Eve Wars.
The reader gets to see how Heero got his name, how Duo got his braid, Quatre’s silly goggles are explained, Trowas mercenary background, and why Wufei refers to his Gundam as Nataku. Everything is capped off with a quick...more

Gundam Wing Episodes
A manga miniseries that explores the early lives of the five Gundam pilots, as well as the events that directly precede Operation Meteor. Written by Katsuyuki Sumisawa, the writer of the series, this is the most 'official' of the Gundam Wing manga; it's still not great. Some of the backstories work, but they as often undermine or merely reiterate aspects of the show. Condensing angsty backstories into 30 pages makes them both rushed and heavyhanded. But the Operation Meteor chapter is fantastic,...more

It was nice to see the back-stories of the boys (and Relena). So much more about the show makes sense now. Just little things here and there, but this really helps everything have a deeper meaning. I really enjoyed reading it.

Though I haven't read it recently, I enjoyed Episode Zero during the days when Gundam Wing was playing on Cartoon Network. It was a great prequel to the series, giving insight to character histories.

Cute and fun, if you're a GW fan. I bought the book just so I could have Wu's story ;)

I'm very partial to Gundam Wing in general, but Episode Zero was so spectacular with its backstories. Most impressive, by far, was Wufei's tragic past as it explains future character development.

Wing Gundam Zero
Heero was raised to be an assassin by Odin Lowe, the man who assassinated Heero Yuy. He was the one who taught him the phrase, 'follow your emotions' that he tells Trowa and others.
Relena was a quiet, depressed girl who met someone who looked very much like Heero years before the start of the show. He gave her a reason to hope and believe.
Duo was a war orphan and he and his orphan buddies would break into Alliance facilities to get food for themselves, hence his knack for breaking into places. He was taken in by Maxwell church where a nun braided his hair and a priest tried to teach him about God. Because he has only seen death, he cannot comprehend there is a God of life. So, he decides there is only Shinigami, the God of Death.
Trowa's story is interesting because it turns out he is actually related to Catherine. He was from a family of circus performers who were escaping in a wagon from a battle zone. Trowa is a toddler and falls off the wagon but his family cannot go back for him. This is why he doesn't know what his real name is and calls himself No-name. Trowa is raised by random militia people where he meets Middie Une (who may or may not be related to Lady Une). The two of the get along very well, but it turns out she is a spy. However, the feelings she had for him were real and she is the first person to really care about him. It then replays the segment of Trowa's past we learn about in Endless Waltz where he assumes the real Trowa Barton's name and place as a Gundam pilot.
Quatra is the youngest in his family and his 29 older sisters are all test tube children. However, unbeknown to Quatre, his mother died giving birth to him naturally. Therefore, he believes he is a test tube child, because that is what he is told, and he feels as if his life is worth nothing. The Maganac Corps is a group of soldiers who are all test tube children. They show Quatre that there is meaning to life and he comes to terms with being a 'test tube child'.
Wufei is not meant to become a Gundam pilot. He was actually a martial arts genius and a bookworm. His fiancee, Meilan, was meant to pilot Shenlong. She believes she is like the god, Nataku, and calls herself so. However, during a battle, she is injured and dies in Wufei's arms. He believes her spirit inhabits Shenlong, hence why he calls it Nataku, and he fights to honor her.
