Gundam Wing? Oh it was pretty decent, don't get me wrong, but it really licked some nasty unshaven balls when it came down to having a social life and missing ONE FUCKING EPISODE, at which point you'd be permanently and irrevocably lost in the storyline if you'd not seen it all before. And of
course when Toonami was showing it on Cartoon Network, they'd only run certain stretches of the show anyway, so you were never quite sure when or where what began. That, and Hiro's unbelievable obsession with suicides that never really quite happen and blowing up his gundam all the damn time. Srsly? Take the most awe-inspiring mech and blow it up over and over nearly every third episode? Come on now... you never saw the Deathscythe being treated that way. Troa (sp?) had respect for his shit.
And you're totally right about Yugayho. How long is that series gonna go on, anyway? It's getting about as bad as pokemon. It could be worse.. could be like digimon, but nobody cares about them anyway.
So here's some Fifthfiend bait: I really liked Chrono Trigger.
