I bought this DVD the day it came out and loved it instantly. But I didn’t really have anything to say about it until watching the ending of another great anime series, Neon Genesis Evangelion. Both the TV and movie versions of that series angered me to no end, but they made me realize how great “Endless Waltz” is.
The ending of the “Gundam Wing” television series wasn’t really that at all. Sure, the ‘bad guys’ were defeated, but anyone who thinks that’s all that matters isn’t a fan of good storytelling. “Endless Waltz” answers pretty much every question you might have about the fates of the characters, and I don’t mean just the Gundam pilots, either. Every important character of the series is brought into play, and even some not-so important ones. As icing on the cake, this DVD also answers many(though not all) questions about the characters from before the start of the series.
The animation, characterization, and excellent soundtrack (”White Reflexion!”) all make up for the fact that the plot is slightly silly and a little cliched. More of a bad guys versus good guys thing as opposed to the complexity of the series. But hey, it’s a movie, how deep do you want them to get, here?
Two more reccomendations. Watch the movie version, as opposed to the OVA version. You’ll be glad you did. It contains extended and all-new footage that really makes the story flow better, plus there’s some great music in certain scenes that were silent in the OVA vesion. Secondly, and this is something I never ever say about anime, watch it dubbed. No, I’m not insane. It’s actually better, I swear to God. I’ve seen it in both languages, and simple lines (such as many of Heero’s) just sounded better delivered in English.
…but what an ending! Told mostly through flashbacks, the story of Endless Waltz is rock-solid. If you’re a fan of the series, this explains the characters backgrounds and how they came to be, which is quite interesting (Trowa’s origin, for example, was not only interesting, it’s shocking). If you’re new to Gundam Wing, well… it wouldn’t be the best place to start… and at the same time, it would be if you don’t want to sit through all those episodes (which is why I liked the flashbacks: I can show it to my friends and they wouldn’t be left out in the cold as to what’s going on in the film). Whenever you try to get someone’s interest in a series, it’s not always easy: nobody really has time to sit through a whole set of tapes/DVDs, and that’s if you even have them; and when you try to show them a movie inspired from the series, they know nothing of the characters, and it seems that most movies expect that you already do (take, for example, Tenchi Forever: you can’t show that to a first-time Tenchi viewer, as it wouldn’t quite register [i.e., no explanation as to how the characters came about]). But, like I said, Endless Waltz gives you a whole background of the characters through the flashbacks, yet, doesn’t take away from those that have followed the series–no easy feet. So what’s the story here? Taking off a year after the Gundam Wing series ended, Mariemeia–the illegitimate daughter of deceased war leader, OZ chief Treize Krushrenada–has made plans to become the ruler of the new nation–thus taking over Earth and the Space Colonies. Obviously, this isn’t good; it’s, as the movie said, “An endless waltz of peace, war, and revolution.” And obviously, our heroes aren’t taking this lightly, either. Past villians are now good guys, the characters are more emotional than ever, and the battle scenes are the best in the entire Gundam Wing series–in fact, I honestly felt this was the peak of everything to the series: the characters have more depth, the story is at its finest, and the battle scenes are beyond amazing. If you’ve seen any of the episodes, you already know about dubbing: it’s perfect. Very few anime titles I’ll say I actually loved the dubbing, but the whole Gundam Wing series is just great. The animation is a bit dated (it was made quite awhile back), but the detail is still sharp. I’ll be honest… the first time I seen Gundam Wing, I didn’t care for it–I’m a Macross/Robotech fan, and I’ll always fell that Macross/Robotech is king when it comes to mecha in anime… but I started liking it after awhile, and I truly feel that this movie represents all of Gundam Wing at its finest. Endless Waltz is a great, action-packed, anime movie that, hopefully, will get the success it truly deserves–definitely do not pass this up when its release day comes.
