Product Description:
After a generation of warfare, the Gundam boys finally brought peace between Earth and the colonies when they helped defeat the Oz and White Fang armies. Now, out of the rubble, the surviving soldiers are re-emerging and clustering together into new factions. Heero Yuy has become a vigilante pacifist, tracking down weapons stashes and destroying them, while Relena, former Queen of the Earth Sphere, is now trying to maintain the peace politically. But an unmanned weapons factory has been discovered somewhere near Mars, and now the Gundam boys are going to have to dust off their mechs for one more battle if peace is to stand a chance of lasting. Bridging the gap between the GUNDAM WING TV series and the movie Endless Waltz, Battlefield Of Pacifists is a must-read for any Gundam fan, and is only available in manga format!

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A nice bridge, though maybe not on its own...
Battlefield of Pacifists is great. If you read the Endless Waltz Manga, which I consider official, there is obvious preference to Battlefield as the true events. Mostly direct references to Vulkanus, which makes no appearance in either Blind Target or Ground Zero. At one point, Une talks about the Virgo 3s that are on Vulkanus. Also, in the Heero / Chang fight, Heero talks about losing control, which is a central focus of Battlefield of Pacifists. However, I do like how Blind Target shows the Gundams ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Blind Target is better...
For a Gundam Wing side story, this was pretty disappointing. The first turn-off I got was the art style. It had no similarities with the art style from the series or Blind Target. The characters look stiff and not very flexible. Another thing was the story and plot-line. I liked the concept of Vulkanus but I couldn't stomach the way they immediately progressed with the story. Instead of filling the gap of one year between the series and Endless Waltz, they only tried to create a prequel for the movie. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good story if a little awkward at the end
I really liked that it wasn't just retreading the material in the series or Endless Waltz. It actually builds on different views and emotions. It does do a little recycling of events by having Heero show up to the final battle late, but that's okay with me. I did enjoy that the bad guy wasn't a complete clone of the others, but he had his own motives and opinions. I think the best villians fall into two categories, the intelligent and the hipocrites. There is some anger in that this guy is claiming to ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Battelefield of the Pacifists
Great book, as w/all of the Tokita books I have read(?) I love the animation. The story is good, too. I wish Milliardo was in it though, typical of a Mil fan. Anyway, go ahead, get it. If you are new to Gundam Wing, you may wanna read the Gundam Wing graphic novels by Koichi Tokita, Yoshiyuki Tomino, and Hajime Yadate. I liked them a bit more. All 4 of the books are great reading.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Definitely a disappointing purchase
The plot of Battlefield of Pacifists is far too fast-paced for the reader to get a good idea of exactly what's going on. The artwork is nothing spectacular and definitely doesn't keep to the same style as the TV series; it also seems like there wasn't much effort put into keeping the characters' personalities in tune with the series itself on the author's part.

All in all, it's hard to believe that the events in Battlefield of Pacifists were meant to take place during the interlude between ... Read More
