Endless Waltz is a three-episode OAV that was released after the television series. It is described as both a sequel and a presequel to Gundam Wing. But if you have seen Endless Waltz it's pretty clear that it is set after the t.v series (it takes place in AC 196, while the TV series was in AC 195).
Endless Waltz is the sequel for Gundam Wing. It is set after the events on AC 195, where Earth has finally achieved peace, thanks to the 5 Gundam pilots. In a time of peace, Gundams were no longer needed, and Quatre proposed the idea of the destruction of the Gundams. All the pilots agree, except for Wu-Fei, who has disappeared after the war against White Fang.. When the Gundams were collected and sent to a one-way trip to the sun, a crisis breaks out! Relena is kidnapped, while a powerful military group known as the "Barton Foundation" begins to takeover various space colonies. Without the Gundams, the main characters face an extremely difficult situation. There's frequent "flash-back scenes" through out Endless Waltz, and they give you a better understanding of the origin and history behind the original series. There's also more background info on the Gundam Pilots, as well as their training and how and why they were selected. |
