I came across this Gundam Wing scan and the content in the pink boxes was so cute I couldn’t pass up on translating them. I’m not sure where this is from but it’s advertising the HD remaster Memorial Box version of GW, specifically Part 3 which contained Endless Waltz. I originally planned to scanlate it but it was too much work and I’m lazy.
Essentially they introduce the boys, what’s usually on their minds, and also has a tip on how to pursue them/win them over/get their attention??? Which I found SUPER amusing because even the magazine is like “uh, good luck lmao”
For example this is Heero’s:
Case: Heero
There’s nothing in his head other than missions, and once he starts working, there is no room for other people. However, he’s become much softer than when he did nothing but fight and follow orders, and can be seen smiling more than before.
Brain analysis: 100% MISSIONS.
How to win him over: It’ll be a difficult time with a tough opponent in Relena. But just keep applying pressure like she does!
-
Note: Just wanted to make it clear that all of the percentages are me eyeballing.
Case: Duo
The type of person who prioritises his private life over missions, but he gets the job done. One of his strongest points is his ability to always face forward and take on any foe, like the time he forced his way through the Mariemaia army with only his own body, even without a Gundam.
Brain analysis: 30% missions, 70% private
How to win him over: First, it’s important to get his attention by being friendly. After you get to know each other to some extent, pursue forcefully aggressively! ⭐️
Edit: Found a better adverb lmao
-
Case: Trowa
After the war, he returned to the circus and lives a peaceful life. He’s taciturn, but gentle, and he specialises in infiltrating the enemy to strike from within rather than from the front.
Brain analysis: 70% the circus, 30% training
How to win him over: He enjoys his work as a clown, so you should get close to him through his workplace.
-
Case: Quatre
Because of his kind nature, which makes him put others before himself, people naturally follow him. However, he also has a stubborn side, and despite other’s objections, he single-handedly carried out the dangerous task of retrieving the Gundam he had sent into the sun.
Brain analysis: 33.3% work, 33.3% friends, 33.3% peace
How to win him over: He often stands above overs in a leadership position, so you’ll be sure to get him if you can talk to him from the same perspective.
-
Case: Wufei
Wufei always analyses himself to determine what is right in the world. His thoughts are preoccupied by himself and his beloved machine, Nataku. His love for his Gundam is so deep that he is the only one among the five who did not give it up.
Brain analysis: 50% training, 25% self-discipline, 25% Nataku
How to win him over: If you treat him seriously and start conversations by talking about Nataku, you’ll have a winning hand.
-
I can’t get over the format. With the exception of Quatre, the others just have this “they’re so weird but I mean, they’re getting better/nice/passionate--oh, you’re interested??? uh, okay... good luck i guess...” vibe LMAO I wonder what the ‘private’ section of Duo’s brain includes.... honestly could be anything.

Duo wakes up in the middle of the night and does not see Heero sleeping in his bed. But where is Heero? In front of the TV. And he is totally fascinated.
***
- I don't understand," said the dark-haired man, not seeming to notice the state of shock in which his friend was.
The two young men turned their heads slightly to face each other.
- Uh... What don't you understand?
- This," Heero said with a vague gesture of his arm towards the television. "The dialogue is almost non-existent and the script is totally incoherent.
Duo laughed in a low voice, with great amusement and a bit of nervousness. Was he really going to watch a pornographic movie with Heero Yuy or... was he still dreaming?
A happy event https://archiveofourown.org/works/47882218/chapters/120717316

All Quatre wants is to help. Even when the war is over, so many people suffer because of the consequences. Helping rebuild is the least he can do. But he seems unlucky, things go wrong all the time and people get hurt.
Trowa hardly recognizes Quatre. He has changed and seems to have problems. He reluctantly tells him about his bad luck, but Trowa doubts that it's just "bad luck" and decides to investigate.

M/M, Trowa Barton/Quatre Raberba Winner
Not Rated, Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, Bad Cooking, Anal Sex, Love, Established Relationship
Quatre had only one task. Cook dinner.
But as usual, things don't go as they should and he needs a plan B. A plan that would distract Trowa from his mishap. When he sees the apron, he gets the idea.
He had to make himself the main course.

Now it had happened. The thing Quatre had been most afraid of. He would lose Trowa because of it. Just like he had lost everyone because of it. Trowa wasn't the miracle, the golden exception.
Trowa didn’t want to be vulnerable. Especially around Quatre. In softness was a kind of strength that he couldn’t afford. He could only be strong in his indifference. For him it was easier being strong in that way than being vulnerable. And he wanted to be strong around Quatre. A solid rock.
