Another G from the incomplete list bites the dust!
Fun fact, if you pronounce it 'hai-sha' it means 'Losers', but with 'ha-isha' it becomes 'Dentists', Glory of the Dentists!
Mata ai-muscle!
Well, not a big fan of Wing to be honest I still haven't watched it completely so can't say which one is better but Gundam wiki says: "The story follows the plot of the Gundam Wing TV series very closely, incorporating plot elements introduced in the prequel manga, Episode Zero, and the concurrently-running photonovel, Frozen Teardrop. Therefore, the manga acts as a retelling of the original animated TV series with all backstory and sidestory plot elements incorporated". Guess it tries to be the "definitive" version of GW in manga form.
Gundam Wing has a bad reputation in the west because it was the first serious-like Gundam when nobody was really prepared for a story of this level. After reading the initial volumes of this manga, I had a completely different impression from my older "Wing is bad" impression, and when I rewatched the anime with the knowledge of the manga I could see a lot of details that are valid in the anime, just not very explicit, and I got to change my impression of Wing from "bad" to just "badly executed".
The manga is much better than the anime, and makes more sense to boot. It does reorders some events and the like.
