Character Description: Heero Yuy
He is the strongest among all the gundam pilots and the most dedicated. He pilots the Wing Gundam. Heero's past is mysterious. He was raised and trained as an assassin by Odin Lowe, who assassinated the real Heero Yuy. Odin Lowe wanted to have his revenge on the people who made him kill the real Heero Yuy, but Heero accomplished this goal for him. Heero was lost after Odin's death, but luckily, Dr. J thought he liked the look in Heero's eyes and asked Heero if he wanted to be a gundam pilot. Heero agreed.
At a very young age he accidentally caused the death of a lot of people including a young girl and her dog who gave him a yellow flower. This made him feel extremely guilty, sad, and lonely. When things get serious he pushes people away and if things seem hopeless he'd give up his life without even thinking twice. Sometimes he's too frank about things. He does the impossible, like jumping from a high place without opening his parachute. It's like he's a super hero with awesome powers and immortality; even though he does very dangerous things, he never seems to die. His motto is "Life comes cheap, especially mine." Actually I think he loves his missions more than his life, at least in the beginning. I almost forgot, he's also good at basketball, fencing, horseback riding, and hacking computers.
Heero says that he is Duo Maxwell when was in the school, disguised, as he was trying to do some difficult data mining. It really sounds strange, so strange that it became a joke in the manga (that SD in the end of the manga).
Character Description: Heero Yuy
This mysterious youth was sent from the L1 space colony cluster to fight against Oz. He goes by the alias Heero Yuy, after the martyred leader of the space colonies; his real name, like almost everything else about him, is unknown. Heero has been trained since childhood for his role as pilot of the Wing Gundam, an upbringing that has made him cold and ruthless. But thanks to his years of training, Heero has become a perfect soldier equally skilled in personal combat, explosives, and computer hacking.
Heero pilots the Wing Gundam. This advanced mobile suit was created by a resistance group at the L1 colony cluster for the sole purpose of battling Oz. The Wing Gundam can transform into a winged "bird mode" superior to any conventional fighter plane; in this form, it can survive re-entry and fly in Earth's atmosphere. Its primary weapon is the buster rifle, an immensely powerful beam weapon which can be fired only three times before its energy supply must be recharged. For close-range combat, the Wing Gundam relies on its shoulder-mounted machine cannons and the beam sabers stored in its shield
Character Description: Heero Yuy
Heero Yuy is the pilot of the Wing Gundam or later known as Gundam Wing Zero. He is the most grim and serious of all the G-pilots, especially to his missions. Heero Yuy is just a codename which he took from the martyred leader of the space colonies, his real name is unknown. Born in L1 colony, scientist Dr. J has trained Heero since childhood to be a ruthless killing machine, equally proficient in mobile suit piloting, personal combat, demolitions, and computer hacking, but to make it shorter, we can call him a perfect soldier. Even though Heero seems to be cold-hearted on his appearance and personality, he is really a kind-hearted boy, which kinda shows up later in the series. All I can say is, Heero is callous toward allies and cold-blooded toward his enemies. Also, Heero thinks that life is cheap since he doesn't even care about his own life and would even commit suicide for his mission.
Heero is known for good maneuvering in the air, hand-to-hand combat, weapons and explosives, engineering and machinery, and battle strategies and tactics. Heero's reflexes are quicker than a cat's judging by the way he pulls out those guns from nowhere. Heero is a soldier with no sense of 'self' or happiness, the only thing he is living for is his mission and the satisfaction of it. Since Heero was taken in by Dr. J when he was really little, the thing he mainly know how to do is kill. Heero doesn't understand his feelings and how to react to things sometimes but he does follow his instincts. For example, when he saved Relena with the arm of Wing Gundam in a battle which he didn't know that she was the princess of the Pacifist Sanc Kingdom. Another thing, Heero had felt the feeling of guilt and responsibility somewhere in his lifetime. Another example, when he killed General of the Alliance by mistake and then gave Noventa's granddaughter a chance to end his own life for revenge.
Heero's job is to destroy the colonies of OZ organization. The year after colony 195, the mission Operation Meteor, Heero and his Gundam ended up on Earth. He was discovered by Relena, but his identity was suppose to kept as a secret, so in order to do so, he took on a new mission, to kill Relena Darlian. The only problem is that he couldn't bring himself to do it. He couldn't understand, but it seemed like he had developed feelings for her. Later on, Heero met four more G-pilots, who also given the same mission as his. They are his allies and friends. Their names are: Duo Maxwell, Quatre Raberba Winner, Trowa Barton, and Wufei Chang.
Heero's most distinctive features: the cold hard eyes, the thick and messy hair, the green tank top and spandex shorts, and that awesome laugh that would never seem to go without.
