Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
"Gundam Wing" was a greater success in North America, however, and is credited with single-handedly popularizing the "Gundam" franchise among Western audiences. Just over a week after its premiere on Cartoon Network on March 6, 2000, the series was the top rated program in all age groups. During the summer of 2000, it remained as the first or second top-rated show among kids and teens during its twelve airings per week on the Toonami block. "Gundam Wing" was ranked the 73rd best animated series by IGN, calling the series "so good that even those opposed to anime have to give the show its due credit".
Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack
Making its theatrical debut on March 12, 1988, "Char's Counterattack" is the culmination of the original saga begun in "Mobile Suit Gundam" and continued through "Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam" and "Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ", marking the final conflict of the fourteen-year rivalry between the characters Amuro Ray and Char Aznable. It was adapted from "Mobile Suit Gundam: High Streamer", a novel written by Gundam creator Yoshiyuki Tomino.
