The Meteor the Girl Saw

Review | Links

[ Episode 1 | Episode 2 | Episode 3 | Episode 4 ]

The World Federation, after successfully controling most space colonies, is trying to prevent rebels from succeeding with Operation M. Lt. Zechs has run into one of the enemies trying to bring a weapon to Earth. Little does he know that he is dealing with a Mobile Suit made of a very strong Gundamium alloy. Zechs does bring the enemy down, but with several other attacks occuring on Earth, has the Federation met their match? There is also the question about the identity of the Gundam pilot. Did he die in the crash or if he survived, has anyone seen him.

There isn't much done for drama here until the end when the pilot, Heero, is planning to kill the girl who found him, Relena, for knowing who he is. This doesn't really hurt the episode since the action sequences are very well done. Really the only noticible problem or something one will soon realize as they watch a few more episodes is that the characters are very one dimensional. It seems that it will be difficult to make these characters dynamic.

The Gundam Called Death

Review | Links

[ Episode 1 | Episode 2 | Episode 3 | Episode 4 ]

Heero, a new student, is the topic of many questions at his new school, especialy by Relena. I guess we'd all be curious if he threatened our lives. On the military front, the Federation and Zechs are searching for the downed Gundam, but so is another Gundam. The situation becomes more heated when the pilot of the downed suit is trying to stop the enemies from finding his suit, that is in one piece.

We do get to know the character of Relena better who seems to be who the series will use to pull all the events in the series together, and the introduction of Duo is cool, but otherwise there isn't anything to scream and shout about when compared to the first episode. Fortunately the action is kept up to par and the more intense scenario between the two pilots and Relena are played out well which allows the show to remain worthwhile.

Five Gundams Confirmed

Review | Links

[ Episode 1 | Episode 2 | Episode 3 | Episode 4 ]

Heero has been under the survalence of the Naval Hospital, but he seems to have the fear factor to keep them inline, but he does want to escape. His hope does seem to become a possible reality when somebody he ran into before his accident is ready to break him out, like the guy or not. In the meantime Zechs has predicted that the next Gundam attack will be at a military ceremony at Corsica which could be used for obtaining data to destroy the enemy, but even if the Federation knows where the attack is going to be, are they ready to face all possibilities that could occur during the attack.

This is a pretty fast paced and well organized episode, and the action keeps one glued to the screen. Afterwards one should realize that there is nothing to the episode character wise except for the alliance of two of the pilots. Maybe the show is trying to gain the HK Cinema crowd. I shouldn't be so hard on the episode for this because the action makes this episode possibly the most fun to watch.
