Mobile Suit Gundam Wing - Operation 7

This DVD continues the saga established in the previous six discs with everyone's favorite fine young Gundanium mecha pilots still struggling to find peace, themselves, happiness and a place in the ever changing world After Colony 195. As with any serialized program like Gundam Wing, it is rather important for the viewer to have some (or a lot) of knowledge about the current state of affairs in the series prior to viewing this disc or a serious case of "WHAT?" could result.

Operation 7 covers a fair amount of ground and introduces some new characters as well as filling in NUMEROUS details about some character relations and personal information about the mechs as well as their pilots and those who seek to help them / protect them / steal them away / destroy them... can't someone just hold these boys close and leave them alone... perhaps on Operation 8??? No flashback filled episodes and while there are a great deal of romance and intrigue, this disc disc ups the ante on combat and strives to bring the reality of combat even closer than before.

A master work continues [and my japanese friends say that this is "Kiddie" gundam... can't wait for the "serious" Gundam] to build on a strong foundation.

The DVD transfer and encoding is a great improvement on the previous disc including a MUCH smoother transition feature and at least some attempt to incorporate better "extras" and some better use of the advantages of the digital technology. The trailers and additional materials are a nice touch and overall this disc looks MUCH better over all... about time, BANDAI.

My copy of Endless Waltz is STILL sealed and awaiting the last "episode" DVD to be released.

!3x4/4x3!

We finally get to see where Trowa went to. Trowa had been missing ever since Heero fought Quatre in Wing Zero. Trowa is at the same circus he was during the first part of the series, but he forgets who he is and thinks he is Catherine's brother.
WuFei makes his return as well in his new gundam.
Duo gets to be in the Wing Zero for a brief time and almosted destoryed the colony Hilde is on. Duo attacks Wing Zero but doesn't destory it.
Heero and Quarte are at the sanc kingdom. Heero goes to fight for the Trize Fraction and meets Treize. Treize gives Heero a new mobile suit called Epyon. Epyon is much like Wing Zero. Heero destorys everybody in the battlefield, including the Trize Fraction.
This DVD features a new menu compared to the other menus of the older DVDs.

This is a muct see for all those Gundam EPyon fans out there. This is the first battle that epyon appears in and it is unreal.


OK OK you've had enough flash backs right?   May 19, 2001
well now I know why I watched thru those 2 Flash back episodes (volume 5 or 6 I forgot which one) this more than makes up for it. Heero is how do you say??......THE MAN! As he takes controll over Epyon (1 of the coolest mechs I've seen well next to Nataku) and has a 1-on-1 with Zechs (well after he trashes other mechs in the way)BTW Zechs has Wing Zero! but all thats in episode 34 the first 2 episodes continue on with Heero and Quarte (as the main story) trying to assist Relena but, they have to deal with Noin, sort of. The last episode (weep weep gotta wait till July :( ) is the Return of Wufei NUFF SAID

oh if you didn't know.....Wufei is the man!
