She was just jealous of the greatest character in the history of Japanese fiction, General Septum.

Ah yes, the show that has the main female character love her abuser. Distressingly common.

The context is that the writers of Gundam Wing had previously never had an interaction with another human being before.

LOL is that how that Chargeman Ken scene actually ended? Straight to credits after the expolosion? If so that's fucking amazing.

Chargeman Ken is an experience. There's low budget animations & then there's Ken.

The really impressive part is she waited like a full seven seconds before firing.

Dude had fallen ~250 meters down and was well over a thousand away horizontally before she pulled the trigger, perfect headshot.

Heero: "I'll kill you."
Relena: *swoon*

Though TBF, I think what they were going for was that if they were in a relationship, she'd end up getting killed by one of his enemies, it was just badly written.

Wing is heavily flawed but I love this scene from Endless Waltz.

"See for yourself just how powerless you are!"
"...roger that"

Shit goes so hard.

I know she was written that was, but Mariamaia was just such an annoying little twerp.

She's an expert marksman b/c Treize likes that. She shot him in the air for sport.

Yeah, you kind of figure the villains in Gundam Wing get lots of practice at that (e.g., using peasants for aerial target practice).

Seems like every character in GW is insane. I loved it back in the day, but tried rewatching it a few years ago and I didn't make it very far. Seems like the writers were also insane. Plus it rips off the OG series which several Gundam shows do. Fantastic music and the mobile suit designs are some of the best in the whole series.

Treize is shown shooting targets many times. Notably, a bird flies by one time and he shoots it instead of the target he was aiming at. They believe in 1-on-1 fights, the "old ways," history, and the ancient world. They are aristocrats turned soldiers of fortune.

I haven't seen Gundam Wing in like 20+ years, and I keep forgetting just how utterly nuts it was.

For some reason I always recall G Gundam as super-campy, while Wing was more serious.
Clearly, it was not...

From what she said afterwards she may have meant it figuratively and literally in regards to not leaving blood in anyones wake. Particularly the plan they were in.

Also idk how she herself wasnt sucked out along with the guy due to the vacuum effect such a thing would have created.

I tried rewatching this as an adult a few years ago (saw it when I was in 8th grade originally) and I don't know if the dub took liberties or if it really was intended to be this ridiculous. I never finished the rewatch

The context was that Releina knows that Heiro was a Gundam pilot. Heiro being a stickler for orders has to kill Releina for knowing his secret, which he is struggling to do.

I always found it strange that they had weaponry like the rifles and tanks from the 80s or 90s era and also giant mechs with lasers
Common sense says it may not taste good, but it'll make a turd.
