Gundam Wing Pairings Poll

[Susan]

Hey, my old thread on this is long gone, so I decided to start up another new one with a poll. ^^

Before I begin, I will say that I want NO FLAMING in here. If you don't like someone else's chosen pairing, give reasons why, say that you don't like the pairing, whatever-but do not direct flames at an individual for expressing his or her feelings in here. This applies equally to shounen ai fans and het fans. If your post begins with either "You are in sin" or "You are a bigot," reword it or don't post it XD.

So now that that's done with, what pairings do you prefer?

I liked the whole Zechs/Noin thing myself. However, whatever the heck Noin was wearing on the Peacemilion was stupid looking! She looked like a city girl trying to look like a cowgirl. (At least she wasn't wearing a cowboy hat...)

 

[Susan]

Oh yeah, I forgot to list ZechsxNoin, which is sad since it's also a favorite couple of mine XD. It was actually, along with ChangxSally, one of the few straight couples that really seemed plausible in the series IMHO. ^^

OH OH OH FLAME FLAME FLAME... well not really.. sorry.when i watched this show i was ten so i wasn't extremely concerned with "pairings". looking back now it makes sense the HeeroxDuo pairing you know with the whole Shonen-Ai formula. The only pairing i really like is the ZechsxNoin pairing, but i don't even really like that one.

EDIT: i have no clue why i posted here i just liked the show...sorry

 

[Angry For Coins]

I don't like Gundam Wing? Lol, Susan. Lol.

 

[Lucent]

Oh, I forgot to mention another one. Well, it was sort of one sided, and strange, but I thought it was an interesting facet of the series. Treize and Lady Une. She was one crazy lady, but after one of the episodes I started to think she was kinda cool.

I don't know, it's been a couple years since I watched the whole thing.

 

[Susan]

Awww. No one's voting on the poll-don't worry, it's a private poll

 

[Hitokiri Shadow]

The only plausible shonen ai pairing I can see is Quatre and Trowa. Personally, my favorite couples are:

1. Duo and Hilde
2. Zechs and Noin
3. Treize and Lady Une

 

[roseheartwind]

AAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!!! Trowa and Catherine are like brother and sisters!!!! READ THE MANGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Susan]

They *ARE* brother and sister. I only featured the pairing because so many American Gundam Wing fans seem to like to pair them off because it "isn't yaoi." UGH. I mean, like brother/sister is any *better?* EWWW.

LOL, as you can see, I'm a definite Trowa/Quatre fan.

Question: Not having seen much GW, and being only tangentially interested in the fanservice/yaoi aspects of these arguments, I've formed the impression that most of the slash teamups people have created are based on a canonical "brotherly love" David-and-Jonathan (not overtly romantic) affection between the two characters -- which is carried to romantic/sexual lengths in the fanfic, fanart, and such. Is that an accurate assessment?

 

[Lucent]

More or less. Some of the Gundam pilots make it obvious that they care about the other pilots, the rest just act unemotional. But even the guys who don't show their 'affection' to the others, indirectly show it in the moments where they go alittle out of thier way to pull the others out of trouble.

Their percieved affection sometimes becomes something more in the minds of some fans than what was shown in the series.

 

[Hitokiri Shadow]

I don't really see the caring as romantic interest. Duo and Heero became, more or less, friends. So, they cared about each other. They are not gay. I can see how some people might see Wufei's woman-hating as being evidence of him being gay, but I don't think so. The only POSSIBLE yaoi pairing I can see is Quatre and Trowa. But even then, I personally believe that they are good friends and Quatre is a bit more open than the other pilots. Personally, I think Quatre has a crush on Noin.

 

[wineandecstasy]

3x4. Yep. Quatre's just so... well... I can't picture him liking women, let's put it that way ^^... I also really like ZechsxNoin. Oh, but if only I had payed attention more while I watched Gundam Wing... I was too busy drinking excessive amounts of pop and rolling around on the floor in a sleeping bag...

 

[Susan]

LOL, yeah, Quatre. . .he's like the stereotypical uke: a whiny, overly innocent, too-beautiful bishounen who likes to dress in frilly pink clothes.

 

[mindgamesnumber1]

Duo and Hilde
Zechs and Noin
Treize and Lady Une
Heero and Relena

That's about it I think
