Invader Zim Complete Invasion

Invader Zim Complete Invasion's short story:
The Irken armada is poised to conquer the universe, but it would be a lot easier without Invader Zim! Thickheaded, brash, and overzealous, Zim has wrecked Irken plans for the last time. Seizing the opportunity to rid themselves of this nuisance forever, they send Zim on a "secret" mission to a planet far away on the edge of the universe-Earth. Now Earth's only hope rests with a young UFO-hunting paranormal enthusiast named Dib.

What they say about Invader Zim Complete Invasion?
Jacqueline Low said that Invader Zim Complete Invasion is absolutely great! Not only do you get the entire T.V. series. We can get it at a terrific price. If we are an Invader Zim fan, this is the set for us!

Jennifer L'Ecuyer loved Invader Zim Complete Invasion.

I've been looking for the full series for a couple years now, and when I found it for so low a price, I couldn't resist. The menus are easy to access, and I even found a few episodes I hadn't seen yet. Something I thought was very cool (though I admit to turning it off most of the time) is that you get automatic subtitles in Zim's own language. So if you ever wanted to learn to write in Irkin, here's your chance!

Afro Samurai: Season One - Director's Cut

Afro Samurai: Season One - Director's Cut description:

Afro Samurai (voiced by Academy Award® nominated Samuel L. Jackson) is an epic tale of a black samurai's hunt for Justice (voiced by Ron Perlman: Hellboy Alien Resurrection ) who murdered his father. With music score by The RZA ( Kill Bill Wu Tang Clan) Afro Samurai blends traditional Japanese culture, funky technology and hip hop to create a brutally fresh entertainment experience.

Director's Cut features:
# 15 MINUTES OF NEVER BEFORE SEEN FOOTAGE
# Exclusive Manga art from Afro Samurai Creator: Takashi Okazaki
# Interview with the Creator: Takashi Okazaki
# RZA Music Production Tour In the Booth

"The violent five-part adventure Afro Samurai marks both the increasing confluence of American and Japanese pop culture and the shift in Japanese depictions of African-Americans. The popularity of hip-hop in Japan has led to more positive images of blacks, including Takashi Okazaki's original manga. The "Director's Cut" contains an additional 15 minutes of footage, and is even gorier than the broadcast version on Spike TV. As a boy, Afro Samurai saw his father beheaded by the maniacal Justice. The murderer sought an ancient headband that marks the wearer as the #1 warrior in the world. As an adult, Afro seeks only revenge, cutting down anyone who blocks his path to Justice. Afro Samurai depicts a oddly anachronistic world that infuses cell phones, cigarette lighters, and cyber technology into traditional Japanese culture. The elongated character designs recall Peter Chung's Aeon Flux, and much of the series is rendered in moody grays, accented by gobbets of scarlet blood. Afro is such a taciturn figure, most of the dialogue goes to his motor-mouth comrade Ninja Ninja. This big budget production features an eclectic score by Wu-Tang Clan co-founder RZA and an A-list vocal cast that includes Samuel L. Jackson and Ron Perlman. But for all its elaborate production values and over-the-top fights, Afro Samurai suffers from a weakness at its core: Afro is so monosyllabic and cold-blooded, he's not very interesting. His inevitable duel-to-the-death with Justice lacks the emotional punch of Spike's face-off against Vicious in Cowboy Bebop or Kenshin's one-on-one with Shishio in Rurouni Kenshin. This extremely violent series is not for the faint of stomach. (Rated TV MA, suitable for ages 17 and older: graphic violence, profanity, sexual activity, grotesque imagery, nudity, risqué humor, alcohol and tobacco use)," said Charles Solomon.


D. Miller "Derek Fawaz" watched Afro Samurai on Spike TV back in January when they showed the edited episodes. D. Miller "Derek Fawaz" has to say he was thrilled when he found out they were coming out with the director's cut of the production with an extended ending because D. Miller "Derek Fawaz" could not get over how bland the show was on TV. For those of you who thought that Afro Samurai was a rushed anime and never really had any substance, well the director's cut fixes that. Spike not only cut out the mature content but they also cut out a lot of the scenes to make room for a half hour time lapse. In his opinion the director's cut made Afro and the rest of the characters have more substance attached them. Plus in the director's cut the picture and sound is restored to intended form which makes this anime even more beautiful. But aside from the director's cut features, yes a lot of you are saying that Afro should have had more substance and be able to talk more than his jabber of a sidekick Ninja Ninja, but considering all that he went through in his life as a boy pulled out of innocence and straight into the world of killing, you wouldn't want to speak much neither. The anime is different and has many redeemable qualities with its characters and story and handles the mixture of old feudal Japan with modern future. It is also a story about what happens when revenge comes between you and your friends and how power can destroy everything you care about.
Afro Samurai is a creative story, with creative characters that was thought up by Takashi Okasaki and for those of you who are planning on watching it; D. Miller's advice is get the complete anime and thats the director's cut because the edited version is just the series cut up and spliced together into a rushed mess.

Dragon Ball Z: Season Seven (GreatSaiyaman & World Tournament Sagas)

Dragon Ball Z: Season Seven (GreatSaiyaman & World Tournament Sagas) is a new release. This titte will be released on November 2008.
Seven years of peace have passed since the defeat of the monstrous Cell, and the Z-fighters have benefited from a return to normal life. Goku very continued his training in other world, Krillin got married, Gohan and renewed his scholarly activities while trying to navigate the pitfalls of high school. Two new Saiyan fresh faces have also appeared on the scene "Goku's son Goten, and Vegetaâ's son Trunks!

Now the time has come for the Z-Fighters to meet, as the new world of martial arts tournament is to begin. The greatest warriors of the world met for their chance to capture the title of reigning champion, Mr. satana "but behind the scenes, sinister forces are at work. A look at the evil eye competitorsâ every movement, pending the opportune moment to strike. The action is growing fierce on the tournament floor, but the Z-Fighters, the real fight has just begun!

Fettster "Fett" said that Season 7 is an essential part of the DBZ collection seeing as how it ties the end of the Cell Saga and beginning of the Buu saga together. The episodes may be most non-serious of the series, but they are there for a reason. He give suggestion to pick up our copy when its released if we have been collecting from Season One
Fettster "Fett" also wrote the short story of Dragon Ball Z: Season Seven.

Season 7 takes place after the drool-worthy ending to the Cell games in which Gohan obliterates Cell with his one-handed Kamehameha wave.

Now a few years later Gohan is ready to start High School which means no more home school from Chi Chi.

However, directly before this Goku takes part in a filler martial arts tournament from beyond the grave and we get to see Frieza, King Cold, The Ginyu Force and even Cell again one more time. The final battle of the tournament is Goku (duh) vs. Pikkon under supervision of the Grand Kai. This part honestly has nothing to do with the overall plot of the series and was just a filler section before the next arc starts.

Back to Gohan (and the actual story). Gohan is on his way to school, sees a robbery, and transforms to a SSJ to beat his enemies in a flash.

Now the whole town is going on about the "Gold Fighter". So, in order to draw attention from his new superhero Gohan creates another superhero with a disguise so people won't know its him. He creates probably the most godawful yet super hilarious costume and character. He calls himself the "Great Saiyaman" and does little dances to intimidate the enemy.

If somebody who has never watched DBZ sees these episodes as their introduction into the series they probably would turn away immediately, but believe me this part is not THAT bad. I would honestly rather watch this part of the series 5 times in a row than sit through GT again.

Gohan goes to meet Videl, daughter of Hercule, at school and befriends her. She eventually discovers his true identity and in order to prevent blackmail Gohan teaches her how to fly. Goten and Trunks also achieve SSJ while training.

Season 7 might dwell into the World Martial Arts Tournament that takes place next, but probably not very far if it does. Basically mid way through the tournament is when the next Saga starts and we learn of the new deadly threat to the world. Majin Buu.

What they said about "Dragon Ball Z - Season Five (Perfect and Imperfect Cell Sagas)"?

Taylor X said that

Dragon Ball Z is the one greatest anime series ever created. With its action-packed universe and compelling storylines, Akira Toriyama's magnum opus has never failed to please. This is the latest season set FUNimation has released of the series.

This set picks up where the last one left off. The Z-Fighters, in addition to having to put up with the newfound threat from Dr. Gero's Androids, makes an unwelcome discovery. An exact duplicate of the time machine Trunks came to the present-day timeline in has been discovered, along with a mysterious egg. Before long, the Z-Fighters are face-to-face with a threat even more dangerous than the Androids - Cell. Another Dr. Gero creation, Cell is a semi-organic creature also made by Dr. Gero, using biological samples taken from the Z-Fighters, and a few of their old foes as well. And with each human being he absorbs and kills, he gains more powerful. He is on a quest to find the other Androids, as absorbing them will greatly increase his power, and allow him to transform to even more powerful states. Now the Z-Fighters have not one menace on their hand, but two.

The DVD set is divided amongst six discs, and contains the complete Imperfect and Perfect Cell Sagas (though curiously, not the Cell Games saga.) The picture has been subjected to digital noise reduction, and the set includes a booklet of character profiles and episode listings.

David S. Shields also give a review about "Dragon Ball Z - Season Five (Perfect and Imperfect Cell Sagas)". He said that

Finally...all the Dragon Ball Z seasons and episodes at an affordable price and excellent quality. They are cropped, but I can hardly tell the difference and if you own an HDTV with an upconverting player (PS3) it looks amazing. This season will be nothing less than stellar, don't know why they didn't include the cell games though. Looking forward to one of the best sagas in Dragon Ball Z history!

I was very interested on this dragon ball z season six after i read review from Midnight Priestess. She said that she has been in love with the whole Dragon Ball Z series since she was 10 years old. The first episodes se ever saw were of the fight between SonGoku and Captain Ginyu. She couldn't believe it when they said they were releasing the seasons in box sets and have been in anticipation for the following set ever since she bought Season 1 and Season 6 is NOT the exception. She can't wait to see SonGohan go SS2 in Hi-Def, remastered and uncut! The seasons only get better from here!

If anything, give it a try. Midnight Priestess guarantee you'll never see another anime like it. Well with the exception of Dragon Ball (the prequel to Dragon Ball Z but it doesn't have to be seen to understand Dragon Ball Z) and Dragon Ball GT (the sequel to Dragon Ball Z. It's a good continuation of the characters' lives... but nowhere near as good as Dragon Ball Z).

Trust me! Dragon Ball Z is a famous must-see anime! Mandatory to anyone who adore remotely interested in anime!

InuYasha: Kagome Necklace GE7770

If you're a fan of Inuyasha, a true fan of Inuyasha, then "InuYasha: Kagome Necklace GE7770" is just a must have for your collection. I must say that "InuYasha: Kagome Necklace GE7770" is not really so Kagomes necklace, it is Kikyos. That's what it looks like when it was burned with her after his death. At the time Kagome, it was just the jewel. But on the whole, it is always Inuyasha.

Inuyasha 46: An Ancestor Named Kagome

There is something which robs the rich houses, and even Inuyasha is powerless against this invisible demon! Then, present and the past when Kagome merger responds to an ancestor of his classmate ojo. Could it be that she is destined to marry and join the line Hojo?

Episode 136: A Strange Invisible Demon appears!

Episode 137: an ancestor named Kagome

Episode 138: Mountain Demons: Survival of the Duo

Currently in the air Adult Swim block of time on the Cartoon Network and on YTV in Canada!

Inuyasha and friends are running a little short of money and food and need a place to ply Miroku patented fake exorcisms a rich fool. But it turns out they may not have to compensate a ghost this time as a strange intruder was rich to steal houses and taking any valuables. Somewhere, this thief is able to penetrate even the most impenetrable security. In exchange for food and shelter, the group is committed to catching criminals, whether human or demon. After that the first two parts of a story several episode reached on the next volume which has some links with the modern world. In this, Kagome is informed by his classmate, Hojo, that one of its ancestors Inuyasha is time Akitoki, married a girl named Kagome! Would not you know that when Kagome returns to the feudal era, it empties into the same ancestor. Akitoki is on a quest to purify the "Kon Blade", a cursed demonic weapon that his family is sworn to protect. But when a gang of ninja demons early attack, he seeks the help of Inuyasha and friends.

Anytime Shippo is the hero of an episode, it is fine by me, because you always know you for a laugh, as reflected in the first episode on this disc. You really feel for the child, because under its surface finished cowardice, it is a brave heart that the bigger than its size. It is still a little frustrating that Kagome can not she really likes. She wondered even if it was his destiny to marry the bumbling Akitoki. So much for loyalty. There are fighting and the establishment of another gay demon, but this show is on the strength of its characters so that the plot seems incidental. In fact, there is not much ground, just conflict.

InuYasha: Kagome Yellow Anime Cosplay Backpack

As seen on the hit anime, "Inuyasha" Kagome sport a yellow backpack in which it uses to transport all kinds of good things of modern Japan in the feudal era. This backpack yellow denim is a replica of Kagome backpack, and is perfect for animated cosplay. The backpack includes InuYasha logo and the name of Kagome. Made of high quality material, the exterior has 2 pockets. The backpack of the Interior has a large pocket, within it, you'll find a zipper pocket for your belongings.

A.Gonzales said that this bag is great for cosplay and for running errans (which is what he use this bag for).Its easy on the back and can easly be adjusted. A.Gonzales recommed this for 7-14 year old.

A Inuyasha fan told me that this backpack looks exactly like Kagome's backpack from the anime. It is great for any fan of InuYasha it is made with good material. He don't use this backpack for cosply but he use it for school. It is strong enough to carry textbooks and other school supplies.

Inuyasha - Season 2 (2002)

Inuyasha and Kagome's journey continues as they search for fragments of the Shikon Jewel with their friends Miroku, Shippo, Kirara and Sango. But the task is not easy when Naraku keep coming with the intrigues of new traps to prevent them from making the jewel shards. The adventures of battles in the rivalry between brothers and sisters, journey through the quest against demons in this second season of Inuyasha.

I think if you go buy a large collection to introduce someone lively and May this be the one to choose. Now it is available in a collected (and affordable), the second season is a grand prix.

There is barely a mediocre episode in the lot, and even less bad. Highpoint follows culmination of arm-wrestling at the castle Naraku, combat with the wind Sorceress Kargura, Wolf-Demon Koga, Goshinki mind-reading, strange Juromaru and Kageromaru, and powerful Ryukotsusei. The quarrel with Sesshomaru continues, and we see that Inu Yasha full-demon brother is perhaps not completely evil. Sango bear a lot of pain, both physical and emotional, but fighting, Kagome and begins to adapt to the dangers of the world, she discovered. It is much less helpless in a season. And Kikyo is even more enigmatic than in the first season, though complex, with a perspective that is neither human or demon.

The 2nd season is, in my opinion the best of the best animated programs ever undertaken.

Inuyasha - Season 1 (2002)

Short story:
Kagome Higurashi, an average ninth grader, was shot in an old and a demon, bringing its 500 years in the past feudal Japan. There, she meets InuYasha, a half-demon who seeks the pearl Shikon be a real demon. With InuYasha and his new friends they meet along the way, Kagome Research Jewel of Four Souls begins ...

Based on the manga by Rumiko Takahashi, the creator of Ranma 1 / 2 and Urusei yatsura, Inu Yasha-TV series (2000) mixes elements of Japanese folklore and knowledge of the devices in a lively mixture of imagination of humour and adventure, a very entertaining series that falls into cliché. Top of the first season of 27 episodes, Kagome Higurashi, a normal 15-year-old girl, falls on a dry well - and is in the feudal past, 50 years after his ancestress Kikyo the imprisoned half-human/half-demon Inu - Yasha. As the reincarnation of Kikyo, Kagome has a magical jewel that greatly increases the power of demons. Kagome irons Inu Yasha-with the help of his ancestor-priestess Kaede, and when the jewel is broken and Kagome-Inu Yasha is allied to recover fragments.

The series begins to hit its heels when Kagome and Inu-Yasha, while quarrels, however, be an effective team against the demons they encounter in the Warring States kingdom. Two new characters create complications. Shippo, a fox spirit orphan, meets Kagome and Inu-Yasha in the Warring States Period. A more traditional, but potentially more dangerous is more Hojo, a beautiful upper classman Kagome to school, which is concerned about his recent absences. His understated good manners contrast sharply with the thorny-Inu Yasha - like Kagome begins to recognize his good points.

In the multi-part adventure that begins with "Kikyo flew Ashes," filmmakers to submit versions of the relationship between Kikyo and Inu-Yasha, and the intriguing plot movements characterize Takahashi sophisticated storytelling. The tone darkens as the back story emerges: 50 years earlier, Kikyo trend Onigumo severely burned a thief. As the desire of the Holy Jewel - and Kikyo - has increased, Onigumo convened a horde of demons, which he has the right to eat his flesh and soul. The evil creatures merged to form the terrible Naraku. Recognizing his feelings for Kagome, Inu-Yasha tries to protect its Naraku of sending back to his own time and blocking the passage between ages. Inu-Yasha, Kagome, Shippo, Miroku and cope with a strange series of monsters and villains, including a forest demonstration vomit hordes of monstrous, in the eyes of three wolves.

As the rich tapestry, Kagome and Myoga begin exploring the origins and nature of the Sacred Jewel, which radiates power still brings misery to everyone who approaches. The source of gem is proving to be the demon-killers village. Inu-Yasha, Kagome, their friends and learn how Jewel was established long ago in a battle between hordes of monstrous demons and Midoriko, the high priestess of age. But the jewel is also a mini-battlefield between good and evil: a metaphor for the world - and Inu Yasha-heart, as he vacillates between selfishness and goodness.

Serenity told me that first of all for those writing negative reviwes shame on you!! This is a review on the ENTIRE season not on a few episodes you watched!! You cant get a good perspective that way....please readers...pay those bias remarks no mind and take head of a real review like the one in the spotlight and my own.

This season is awesome!! At first Serenity was unsure of Inu Yasha having only seen a few episodes and not sure what it was about but then having gotten more experiance with it and seeing more episodes i fell in love and got this boxset of the first season. It is a wonderful series filled with what all amimes should have...action, comedy, romance, and great edge of your seat battels!! No one battels as fine as inuyasha and no characters are more deep than what you find in this series. Each character posses a flaw that contributes to the series and their character making it a fantastic anime.

If you are a fan of the works of Rumiko Takehashi then you are sure to fall in love. Inu Yasha i s a series you cannot go wrong with! Serenity has watched A LOT of anime and Inu Yasha is definatly a favorite of mine.

What is alos great about this set that it comes in the original japanese with the english subtitles which are very accurate in their translation. VIZ is def. a well renowed translator and ditributor of goood anime. You can def. trust thier translations. If you dont like japanese then you can watch it in good ol' english and laugh away as Inu Yasha tries to clobber shippo or tries to understand Kagome. There are no too many special features but you can watch the beginning and ending with out the text which is pretty cool and you get a cast and relationship chart.

This season is great!! Do not listen to those bias twits! They havent seen enough to truly love the series! Before the the ones on this page this box set had a perfect review with 5 stars! Read more reviews if you still need convincing...but Inu Yasha is good....no doubt about it.

Inuyasha: Complete Movies Box Set (2002)

Four Inu-Yasha theatrical features pit Valu, Rumiko Takahashi "feudal fairy tale" against new enemies: the search for the shards, Shikon Jewel calculates the wayside as Kagome, Inu-Yasha, Shippo, Miroku and Sango get to grips with these supernatural enemies. In Affections Touching Across Time (2001), Kahvihuone the demo Menomaru will seek to recover powers of his father, who was defeated Inu-Yasha's father tried during the Mongol invasion of 1274. The Castle Beyond the Looking Glass (2002) evokes the Japanese legend of "Tale of the Bamboo Cutter," when the Kaguya, arguing that the show is legendary Moon Princess. Swords, honorable ruler (2003) reveals that the Inu-Yasha's father, the Great Dog Demon is not in possession of two but three of swords: Tetsusaiga, Tenseiga, and Sounga, in relation to Earth, heaven and hell, respectively. When the Sounga is accidentally released its aura raises the soul Takemaru, the Samurai who were murdered on Inu-Yasha's mother. Roisto on Fire-Mystic Island (2004) are the Four War Gods, a high level of demons and the island of Houraijima to maintain and increase their power by sacrificing the half-demon children. The later films are darker and more violent, even though the leaders balance the mayhem against the well-known comedic elements, in particular, Kagome, and Inu-Yasha squabbling. Features all reflect a larger budgets than the TV series, such as the filmmakers use a variety of CG effects: explosions, lightning bolts, insects, monsters and strangling the roots of trees. Affections Touching Across Time stands out as the handsomest, movies, models, which suggest that the woodblock prints of Kawase Hasui. The set includes a CD-Rs, movie soundtracks, and the booklet, which is a traditional Japanese instruments, they feature, even though more information about the composer Kaoru Wada would have been nice. A is a new, Inu-Yasha fans.

Bztold me that this is a very nice box set. If you don't want to wait for the rerun from TV, this box set is a pretty good bargain for $30 bucks. There are some extra in the set but nothing is special. Bz would like to see some interview with the casts but there is none in this box set.

The package is ok but it is kinda tough to get the disc out. You can easily break the disc when you try to "pry" it out from the case.

Story wise, Bz is sorry to say that there isn't anything new added to the TV series. The movies are just yet another side quests. They are ok but not great. If you have seen it once, you have seen it all kinda thing.

The only thing Bz doesn't like about the movies is that the characters from the first 3 movies are not drawn like the original characters from the TV series. The characters from the first 3 movies look bad. The characters from the TV series are full of life with emotion you can see from their facial expression. They are very well animated for TV. Unfortunately, the characters from the movies are like bad cartoons that are badly animated (rather than good "anime"). For instance, Kagura looks like a kid from Gundam Seed rather than looks like a beautiful woman from the TV series. Lord Sesshomaru doesn't look like a "lord". He looks like a punk instead. The 4th movie, on the other hand, is a little bit better animated and look closer to the characters from the TV series.

DynomiteWins said that "Inuyasha: Complete Movies Box Set (2002)" is such a great deal considering that each movie sold on it's own is about $15. You get all 4 movies for $30, with some fun extras and the options of watching in Japanese or English. There is another movie box set out there that is much more expensive and the only difference is a set of soundtrack CDs. The soundtrack is pretty impressive, but wasn't necessary for my personal use.

The movies themselves are fun - much like longer filler episode arcs with interesting villains and story lines. It's not meant to help the Naraku storyline progress, but you'll be in for some fun (especially if, like me, you've already watched the InuYasha TV episodes multiple times and are looking for something new and fun starring your favorite dog demon and Japanese school girl.)

The animation is different from the TV show - to me the characters look more "cutesy" but my husband, who is not that interested in the InuYasha series, enjoyed watching some of the major battle scenes and thought that the battle sequences were animated better.

Now all we have to do is wait for that final end-all fifth InuYasha movie, and we'll all be happy.

Buttons started watching the earlier episodes of this anime when He found out Season 5 was being released. Buttons love this whole series but the early relationship between InuYasha and Kagome is frustrating. Buttons hate the episodes where inuyasha chooses Kikyo over Kigome. Buttons pretty much fast forward through them. Inuyasha Season 5 is so good. There are many cute moments between Kagome and InuYasha. The episode where inuyasha cry's and the episode with the river of fire are among Buttons' favorites. The action in this season is also excellent. There are no filler episodes for this season. The gang of seven are the best villains this series has had so far (including Naraku)! If you have made it too 99 keep going because you will be very happy with this one.

Gundam Wing Zero Extended Msia Xxxg-00w0 Action Figure

The Mobile Suit Hajime Katoki is the recasting of Gundam Wing Zero, designed for the film Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz. The Mobile Suit is predominantly white, four major sports, feathered wings, double beam Sabres (green) and the massive Twin Buster rifle for which the Wing Zero is famous. The base is largely blue, with small portions of red (second abdominal segment, the "beard", the basis for the next, the upper basin of the town, the end of the forearm and on the basis of foot ). The model is very detailed, especially the wings. Its various joints are very stable way, and it can be done to keep it raises as many other models simply sag if such manoeuvres have been forced. The paint job is very good, there is almost no bleeding, and said the painting is the perfect balance between matte and shiny, it seems very realistic. The only area where I am not satisfied with the ankle joints are, the avant garde joined curiously, and they are not mesh well with the rest of mechs legs. Small disadvantage, si.

This model comes with at least a dozen interchangeable parts (Attention, small children. In fact, I think most of them are too small to be swallowing ...). The Vulcan cannons covered on the shoulders can be switched to open the Twin Buster Rifle can detach packaging and are replaced by a unified version when the gun is combined in his unit, along with handles, and has at least eight hands to be used in various combinations. The Sabres beam can be stored in the rear wing joints, and they are slightly underrepresented and too bright, in my opinion, but it is a small inconvenience. The blades are green. The rear wings are installed collapsed and can be extended to their full size inserted by tabs (a feature I've never seen a Zero Wing figurine before).

In all, an excellent buy, and I certainly do so again. Unless you're a ModelMaker or you do manage to get your hands on a Arch Enemy series Gundam Wing Zero, is the model for you. Worth every penny. The same box comes with a velcro flap so that you can open the front without breaking the seal, if you are so inclined not to open the thing and play with a little (go, leave your inner child! You know that you like).

Gundam Wing: Blind Target

In the world of "gundam Wing" manga, there are three stories that give their version of the time from the TV series and "Endless Waltz" movie. They are "Ground Zero" (VIZ), "Battlefield of pacifists" (to be available from TOKYOPOP in 2002) and "Blind Target" (VIZ). And all these, "Blind Target" is probably the best of them.

Compared to "Ground Zero", "Blind Target" is more action-packed and probably more realistic. Both works are performed in shojo (girls) style of manga, but "Blind Target" to make all see their age, in contrast to "Ground Zero", where some characters looked almost 10 years old. While there is no mecha battles, involving the Gundams, the action plan in "Blind Target" is enough to satisfy all readers who were disappointed by the lack of action in "Ground Zero". The story is excellent, and it quite explain several things to take place later in "Endless Waltz".

While the "Ground Zero" shows the more emotional side of the "gundam Wing," "Blind Target" actually perfects the balance of both action and emotional characterization. Characters are not acting out of character, and the pacing is just perfect. The artwork is great. Some readers might find it strange when they see some people missing an eye, but the beautiful shojo style of the characters is enough to make readers ignore this for the most part. Finally, the "Blind Target" contains the famous (or infamous) kiss scene (or almost-kiss scene, if you believe) between Heero and Relena.

Unfortunately, there is one gripe I have with "Blind Target". Dispersed across the whole book is a page sections called Remixes, and these are basic "newspaper articles" to talk about some signs and examines some of the characters' relationships. The images can be found in these articles is terrible, because these images are originally from the TV series and movies and was originally in color. The transfer from color to black and white was very poorly done and some images are almost impossible to do. These articles are also the most likely places to find spelling errors, but there are not many. Luckily, the Remixes is not the main focus of the manga and can be ignored completely, although it would have been nice to see them done better.

All in all, "Blind Target" is an excellent manga Side Story in "gundam Wing" universe. Although both this and "Ground Zero" are good in their own right, I recommend this to "Ground Zero" any day. Just ignore the poor quality of the Remixes and be aware of teriffic story and pictures of the actual manga, and it's all there is to enjoy the "Blind Target".

Gundam Wing: Ground Zero

"Gundam Wing: Ground Zero" was really funny. For fans of the series (and especially of fanfiction) This is a great manga. The characters are all seen as we fanfic writers and / or readers see them as (although there is not much of a yaoi implications). Unlike other books, this one takes full advantage of the super deformed drawings of the characters (especially Duo), which brings more emotion. Overall, I absolutely adore this manga!
