Mobile Suit Gundam Wing – Castle of Cagliostro – Trigun – Animerica April 2000

January 3, 2016 by Lance Heiskell Leave a Comment

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing. I watched this entire series through Netflix in 2001 – back when they only had one distribution center in California to mail back the DVDs. I also did this with Armored Trooper Votoms. I loved the Two-Mix opening. LOVED IT.

Below is the Animerica Spotlight on Mobile Suit Gundam Wing and an interview with the series director Masashi Ikeda. I really need to watch this series again.

I like the advice column: Ask Relena. This series is still my favorite Gundam series. Endless Waltz is a great movie.

Don’t know why this go second billing, but there is a great Trigun spotlight feature in this issue. This should have gotten a full cover and main feature treatment for a different month.

Aaaannnd…an extended article on Hayao Miyazaki’s Lupin movie “The Castle of Cagliostro”

Plus, an interview with Wendee Lee – Faye Valentine and so many other great roles.

I wish every anime review would adopt the Major Anime Animeicon System. My favorite icon is the Courtesy Breasts. Brilliant!

Last but not least. ADV Fansubs. Yes Fansubs. But not those type of subs. More like a subtitled anime monthly subscription for titles longer than 26 episodes. Looking through Archive.org, ADV only released Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water and City Hunter. They didn’t add any more titles to this program.

Here’s is what their service looked like via archive.org:

Practice Makes Awesome

A Few Tips Upon Reading

First off, find a secluded area and pour yourself a beverage of choice. You must cleanse the palate to take in the delicacies of the nostalgia I'm about to throw down.

Second, if it’s cold where you live, grab a blanket, maybe two. If at all possible, sit down while reading. I hate standing, never stood for it, never will.

Finally, see if you can find the encrypted message left in the third magazine post.
