In an ideal world, we would get FT animated. Then, after the massive success of that, we continue with the 90's pandering and get G Gundam 2.

So. Frozen Teardrop Spoilers also MGSV comparison spoilers.

It looks like Heero isn't Heero at all he's a clone of Heero named alpha. You see the Heero from Gundam Wing is the Beta Heero, who trained along side the Alpha at the same time, but was the original. Alpha seems to have Beta's memories however.

So they literally pulled a Venom Snake with Heero

Not quite correct on the Frozen Teardrop score, as I understand it:

Heero was cloned, yes, but the cloning is well in the past, when he was a child, and done by J to pit the two against each other. Alpha (the clone) is probably the "Heero" who was using the callsign "Black Alpha" in Relena's Episode Zero chapter, and is presumably dead by Gundam Wing proper but I can't confirm that off the top of my head.

The Heero in FT is the same snarkbag from the anime.

I liked the guy with the fake nose the best.

And knowing the Gundam Wing scientists, they all probably have backed up personalities or something on a computer network called, knowing FT, "7 Dwarfs".

Seven Dwarfs already exist. They are seven special ammunition cartridges for the Snow White's Buster Rifle.

The known dwarves last I checked are: Shoot an ice swan, shoot a fire bird, shoot a tornado and shoot an EMP storm. Fire and ice and combine to form a thermal shock wave bird instead.

I'd be kind of sad if that youtube was the actual IBO opening animation because if so it means they're clipshowing the OP like they did with G-Reco.

That said, goddammit BB, I can't stop hearing WAITING FOR ERECTION now.

I thought it was literally referring to erecting a flag, as in "Raise Your Flag."

The fact that we also get to laugh about it like a bunch of dumb middleschoolers can only be a plus, in my mind.

Edit: Also the opening riffs are really solid but they're writing a check the actual lyrical portion can't cash. It's probably just okay rather than terrible, though.

It is indeed. He put it on his list in the tell others what to watch list, so I made him learn to pay attention to warnings about bad shows.

Those are option parts for the robots in Cross Ange, which are much smaller than mobile suits.
