Better than Mobile Suit Gundam

Well, Gundam Wing is the best Gundam series I've ever seen, because the gundams are a lot better than the gundams from Mobile Suit Gundam. The characters are really cool.

For example I have some things to say about them: Heero Yuy is the main character of the show and he's like one of the best characters, Duo is the all-American funny guy, he is very funny most of the time in every episode, Trowa is very silent and the first time he appeared he was a guy without a name, Quatre is like the youngest of the pilots, I think that most people say that he is gay and some others say that his main woman is Dorothy, Chang Wufei is the coolest character and he's the strongest of the pilots. My favorite gundams are: Heavyarms, Shenlong and Deathscythe, Wing Zero is my favorite too.

Relena, oh her name strikes the fear of men, she felt in love with Heero at first glance, gosh some ppl hate her.

This is a great show, it even shows the rivalry of Zechs and Heero, just like the rivalry between Amuro Ray and Char Aznable.

I give this show a 10/10
