gundamwingAll right! Thanks to everyone who's joined so far. Feel free to post just about anything GW-related here - pics, fics, recs, discussions, etc. To get things started, here's a brief questionnaire for you all.
I've been thinking about doing a "Gundam Wing 101" panel at anime conventions, mainly because the series isn't near the forefront of people's minds anymore, but I still want to invite new anime fans to go back in the archives a bit and experience the show.
The panel will more than likely be an hour long, so I can't get too too in-depth, but I thought of a couple of topics that I'd like to include.
My question to you all is - if you were running this panel, what topics listed (or any others you can think of) would be most important to impart to someone who's interested in the show but hasn't watched any of it?
Current topics:
1. A brief Gundam franchise biography
2. Available GW official media - manga, TV series, OVA
3. Character intro - one slide each for the five Gundam pilots, Zechs, Treize, Une, Relena, and one slide for other assorted characters (the Doctors, Cathy, Hilde, Noin, others?)
4. Where does GW fit into the Gundam franchise timeline? (discussion of what "AC" means, etc.)
5. Basic spoiler-free story synopsis
6. Current best online references for GW (Official sites, AboutGundamWing, GWingers, Moments of Rapture)
7. General Q&A
8. Panel feedback
