If you're a huge fan of anime, then you know that one of the most popular series in the Gundam franchise is "Gundam Wing". It's hard to believe that it was first released 15 years ago - it ran on TV Asahi from April 7th, 1995 to March 29th, 1996 with 49 episodes. It's also the first Gundam series to be dubbed and aired in other languages.

To commemorate this occassion, head writer Katasuyuki Sumisawa is in the process of writing the newest addition to the 'Gundam Wing' series, which he started back in August.

Titled, "Gundam Wing: Frozen Teardrop", the story has fast-forwarded 30 years after GW and "Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz", and revolves around Kathy Po, Sally's daughter. Fans will get to see the origins of Heero Yuy and OZ Leader, Treize Khushrenada. Kathy is a Preventer agent who helps awaken "Aurora Prince" a.k.a Heero Yuy, who was put to sleep for 30 years on Mars, without aging. The chip that Kathy hands over to Master Chang is crucial to Heero's revival, who must carry out a new mission called "Operation Mythos".

Relena Peacecraft was also frozen for 30 years, but was brought back earlier than Heero. "Operation Mythos" in short, is Heero's mission to kill Relena.

But that's not all. The makers of the series has recently released a remastered boxed set on November 22nd. The Japanese box includes all 49 episodes of Gundam Wing, plus the "Endless Waltz" OVA series in HD. Extras include an opening film bookmark as well as a 24-page lined notebook. The American version of the box will only come with the original series on DVD; the OVA must be bought separately.
