Gundam Wing

I've been watching Gundam Wing for awhile, and I love the show, but today someone told me that some of the Gundam Wing pilots are gay, is this true?

The correct answer is
Yes & No
Why? There's two reasons
The creators of the show deliberately gave the Wing boys vague sexual preferences.
One reason was because they felt this would give them a good pull with getting the female demographic watching. This paid off (don't believe me? Go to Fanfiction.net and check out there Gundam Wing section)
The other reason was because of their director of choice. He opted to leave their sexualities vague and not feature solid relationships because he doubted his own ability to pull them off.

And now you know

Are the Wing boys gay?
That's for you to decide...

I'd say this is just your opinion in the end. You'll have to make this decision. For me it's how we interpret the characters and the way they live. I don't think they are, but others may believe so. In the end, you'll probably be happier with what you choose, and not what everyone else tells you. :wink:

The best anime series are always the ones that manage to be cool despite massive homosexual overtones. Gundam Wing is the only Gundam series I really got into. I think I might have liked 0080 if I saw it uncut though. Other examples of this trend, Berserk, and so far X the series(only seen the first DVD, but its got my attention despite the fact I already know everything that happens from watching the movie.)

I would exclude Duo, and Relena wouldn't let Heero be gay :lol:

They may or may not be. I believe they aren't, though. I think they are just secure with their manhoods, unlike some people...

Everone always that Quatre is gay but I think he's just one of the sensitve ppl who are either confused with their sexualality, but don't realize that they act that way.

As for the rest, who knows.

They all kind of have their implied counterparts. Heero - Relena, Duo - That girl whose name I don't know, Troa - His 'sister', Quatre - Erm...ok, he's gay :lol: , Wufei - Sally.

I thought Quatre would be matched up with Dorothy.

I couldn't remember one for him, so I just assumed he was gay. :)

Which one was Dorothy? I forget...

Dorothy kicks ass. :)

If ANY of the Gundam Wing guys were gay, I'd suspect Quatre first. Though, I guess he acts that way because he is in touch with his feminine side. :P
