![]() The Atoner: It is revealed that Heero became this after accidentally killing a little girl he had befriended, to the point where he believed Redemption Equals Death.A gunshot is heard, and Dekim falls over dead, shot by one of his own men. Bait-and-Switch Gunshot: As Dekim was about to shoot Relena, Lady Une quickly draws her own pistol at Dekim.And if they hadn't been holding back to keep the enemy pilots alive, he'd have been right. ![]() Badass Boast: During the finale, Trowa casually states that he and the other protagonist pilots shouldn't have much trouble dealing with the enemy mobile suits given that they're only outnumbered by about 50 to 1.After Heero fires his buster rifle at Mariemaia's supposedly secure shelter, she declares "What a miserable person! He-he's not gonna be able to achieve anything!" In response, Relena asks her "Are you afraid, Mariemaia?" She has no answer for that."How many more people must we kill? How many more times must I kill that girl and her dog?".A 2020 Anime News Network article even suggest that Endless Waltz beats out Die Hard as the ultimate Christmas movie, since it has a sentimental element Die Hard lacks. Plus, Heero and Wufei duking it out in orbit. An Asskicking Christmas: The Battle of Brussels - most of the Gundam pilots plus Noin and Zechs fighting off hundreds of Serpent Mobile Suits.Animation Bump: The animation quality is far and away much better than that of the series.Anime Theme Song: "Last Impression" (used in the movie) as well as "White Reflection" (used in the OVA), both by Two-Mix.Adaptation Expansion: The novelization contains much more information than the OVA, incorporating elements from all side stories, including Episode Zero, Blind Target, and Battlefield of Pacifists.The Gundam pilots must prevent Dekim from seizing power over the ESUN, but two things complicate matters: most of the pilots don't have their Gundams, and the only one that does - Wufei - has defected to Dekim's side.Įndless Waltz exclusively contains the following tropes: Dekim plans to use X-18999 to go through with the "original" Operation Meteor note crashing the colony into Earth and letting the Gundam pilots take control in the chaos if the ESUN doesn't comply with his demands.
