Gundam Wing introduced me to the franchise and deepened my love of anime, so it will always hold a special place in my heart. This cover more than does it justice.
Out of all the Gundam main protogonists, Heero will always be my favorite. I watched the show for robots and Heero out here breaking hearts and ripping birthday invitations.
His story is infinitely tragic tho. Keeping the ideals of a dead peace delegate alive. A name he had no intention of bearing. A name of which he has no name. He is just like Trowa. That's why they get along do well. Then Heero becomes entangled with Relena. Another person whos history was another that the organization attempted to bury. He who bears the name of peace but fights. A person who doesn't exist in any records. A nameless, familyless. Orphan of the endless war or humanity. Heero is so relatable as his tragedies never end. An he is smart enough to be aware of this fact. Why do you think he doesnt speak much? Nothing good will come of speaking on the awareness. Notice how when he speaks on it in class, he is quickly shut down? 😃🍻
Gundam Wing and their songs are amazing, thank you for this english version, I had listened to this on my work the whole day on repeat. I can never get enough of it.
Gundam Wing was my *introduction* to Gundam, in my high school youth, back when it aired on Toonami, it does my heart and soul good to see you do it justice
Love Gundam Wing. One of my favourites and one of my first anime. The music is amazing and love the characters. Heero Yuy is my favourite pilot. Hope the other Gundam Wing songs are covered including Endless Waltz
I still listen to the original to this day I never thought I would hear anybody cover this let alone this well I'm gonna be listening to your version from now on props to you for covering the old stuff as well
I'm like 15 eps into Gundam wing and I bought all the master grade models. Recently finished building wing zero. So glad this came out. Will you do the ending "Just Love" as well? Cuz that's also a great song.
Nice, I currently have the MGs for Epyon, Deathscythe Hell EW, the RG Tallgeese, several HG Leos, and a HG Heavyarms. The plan is to eventually get all of the MGs.
I never thought I'd hear an English cover of this favorite from my childhood, wow!! The lyrics are such a good fit and I feel it realyl captures the heart of the original. Awesome!
Gundam wing was the best gundam series ever, the story the musics and the gundam s were unlike any I seen so far, I love just communication, and last impression, but my all time favorite is rhythm emotion, please do an English version of that.
Gundam Wing was such a massive part of my formative years and this song has been so close to my heart since I was a teenager, and somehow you made it feel new and special again. Beautiful work, I'll probably spend another 20 years listening to this version, too!
FINALLY! A FULL ENGLISH VERSION OF JUST COMMUNICATION! Gundam is so underrated that english version of their OPs are difficult to find. Thank you for creating one!
To be fair, TWO MIX, the original artist behind Just Communication, released their own English version long ago, but they're not native English speakers. I personally think this version is better.
@@SB0083 Wished alot more Gundam openings were covered in English in good quality like this one. Or Aura Battle Dunbine for that matter (also comes from the Gundam creator.)
@@SB0083 feels about the same since Two-Mix did a whole album of English versions of their songs including the Detective Conan opening "Truth - A great dective of Love".
I was just thinking about how much I was looking forward to another cover from you! Your vocals are so powerful in this one! I love it when you do covers of faster and heavier anime song covers, but the slower pace of this one really shows your range and the nuances of your voice, too. Thank you so much for another great song, Sapphire!
Massive respect to All the Wing fans comments here! I remember being seven years old sneaking down in the middle of the night for Toonami's uncut showings! I even used to put my school uniform on and my older sister would come down to wake me up if I fell asleep and she'd turn the TV off and cover for me. Precious memories ❤ I only had one MSIA action figure from Wing and it's name is Epyon! Used to pretend Hero was piloting it, Damn I miss that toy and those days before I knew how terrible a place our world is.
You are the second channel that’s made an English version of just Communication, but the lyrics in this song are amazing!!! And I can actually download the song from iTunes!!! Thank you for relighting my childhood…🤩
I remember seeing a preview of your cover of the WfM season 2 OP on twitter like a year or so ago. I was just wondering if you still have plans on releasing that? The snippet i heard sounded fantastic! On topic, this was an incredible cover. It's not easy to capture the vibe of the original, but I think you did a great job
I grew up with Gundam Wing. Action figures, I've now got a few good model kits from the show. I never got to watch the entire series until maybe like 10 years ago when my parents and I were at Austin Comic Con and I found the PAL series at a vendor. Finally got to sit down and watch the entire series. Then got to get Rightsuf's collectors edition one. So when this appeared on UA-cam? Instant listen. Absolutely fantastic job. Really hits the nostalgia ;w;
Song translation is its own kind of art and skill, one that is often lacking, especially between languages so different as English and Japanese. The instrumentation and even vocalist may still rock, but the lyrics and delivery sound like they were written and presented by a robot or a space alien. One must have a strong understanding of both languages, but also a poets ear, to be able to translate not only the basic words and melody, but intention and emotion, even if it means taking some artistic liberties in lyrical content or vocal phrasing, to make it feel as natural to the native English listener as it does to the native Japanese listener. A lot of translated songs fail to accomplish this for me, but the lyricism and vocal delivery of this cover felt just right! Well done!
And I was just putting the Finishing Touches on My Super Nova HeavyArms Igel Kai. Guess this is a sign. Great Work Sapphire Now I have Something to listen too while I build.
This is very well done. Gundam Wing was my first real Gundam. I'd seen a bit of other Gundams, and 08th MS Team is definitely my favorite, but Wing will still hold a place in my heart for really getting me into Gundam and mecha in general.
This was my first anime I've ever seen back when I was 4 my mom had bought it on vhs . Back in 1998 and ever since I've been a anime fan it wasn't pokemon not yugioh or even naruto . It was gundam wing I owe basically who I am today to that show . Thanks for making this amazing cover .
I definitely think out of all the Gundam this is definitely by far my favorite. I watched this when I was a teenager. Between the storyline and the way they made the characters I think it was well written
I don't believe this cover gets enough reverence. So take this made up award for being so great & making such a wonderful product that pays homage(& more) to the original. 😃👇⚡

“Mission… Complete.” When Heero said those words…
Out of all the Gundam main protogonists, Heero will always be my favorite. I watched the show for robots and Heero out here breaking hearts and ripping birthday invitations.
Sounds like you watched the first episode and that’s it
Hero is a absolute insane maniac
Heero was once the non mercy guy..Until an unfortunate accident turned him into Batman.

@@youtubeisrunbyamonkey thanks man. Gonna work on heavy arms custom tonight, and got like 6 more after that. LETS GO!
The Real Grades of Wing and Zero are excellent as well
@@SgtPotShot I already pre-ordered Real grade Tallgeese 3 from premium bandai. Not coming till like November tho
Nice, I currently have the MGs for Epyon, Deathscythe Hell EW, the RG Tallgeese, several HG Leos, and a HG Heavyarms. The plan is to eventually get all of the MGs.
I've waited over 20 years to hear this song. Thank you. This means everything.

Nicely done! That one is going into my Gunpla building playlist.
I just started watching Gundam wing again and now a great singer is about to sing the English version of the opening awesome
This is good, but Two-Mix (the original artist) is still the definitive version of the English version.
Talk about a blast from the past! Should we hope for White Reflection soon too?
dammmmn this is an IMPRESSIVE cover!! incredibly well done!
Toonami made me do this
maybe Toonami can make you do some other songs like the Outlaw Star open/end.......Hint...Hint...

I love it when you do covers of faster and heavier anime song covers, but the slower pace of this one really shows your range and the nuances of your voice, too.

Great rendition of a special song.
Wow. Just WOW!
OMG YES!!!!!!! GUNDAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE COVERS ARE ALWAYS OP!!!!!
That was a blast from the past! Awesome cover

This gundam is the best for his story, battle, and his romance
Please tell me we're getting Rhythm Emotion next!
I love this opening so much
You nailed the tone down with the song so well!
This is SUCH a nostalgia trip. Really amazing cover!!
This was 10/10🤩😎 on the awesome scale, thank you for singing this. Can't wait to hear the second opening of Gundam Wing.
You are the second channel that’s made an English version of just Communication, but the lyrics in this song are amazing!!! And I can actually download the song from iTunes!!! Thank you for relighting my childhood…🤩
My day is made and my joy is immeasurable seeing this vid
Spotify suggested this to me because the stars aligned to remind me I shipped Heero and Relena ages ago. Really love what you did with the lyrics!
The first line sums up my feelings on this one pretty well. Just wild beat, indeed.
Thank you for this! I can’t believe I have only just found it

Love this english version.. brings back memories as a kid. 🧡 Can't wait for Rhythm Emotion!
Gundam wing was everything to me when I was a kid! Thank you Sapphire another 🔥 cover !!
oh my godddddddddd I got so excited when I saw the notification for this
I am impressed the English translation can keep the rythme and beat without making it awkward like I have heard some Japanese translation
This is great. Rhythm Emotion soon?
Seriously, well done!
Love this song
Im a massive Gundam WIng Fan and this took my breath away!! Thank you so much for this!!
Please do more covers from the Gundam Universe that was great.
Yes! It becomes a proper love song now just like how I always perceive it back when I first listened to it.
Just bought my first gundam then this premieres. I know what I'll be listening to while I put it together
congratulations on the premier!!!❤
i love how i just started rewatching this, and then random song cover. love it.
Now that's a pleasant surprise! Love it!

This is my all time favorite gundam theme ever.
"Those who have laid eyes on a Gundam shall not live to tell about it."
This cover just bridged the gap of several generations. 😮🙌💚✨
Oh and also do Vandread themes as well too
Justice!!! YES PLEASE!!!!
YES! waited the weekend and all day at work for this!
That was great work. Congrats!
Damn this is what ive waiting for a very long time i love this rythm just exactly right tone not fast not slow.
You absolutely nailed this one! Wonderful work as always!
This is bliss, thank you for sharing your talent with us!
Great job. Planning on doing Rhythm Emotion next?
Great cover, putting the show back in my brain. Just might go watch a little into the evening lol
Now I just need rhythm emotion, last impression and white reflection and my life will be complete
also maybe some songs from Orginal gundam series like "10 Years After" from 08th MS team
this is the beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeest! so clean
Mission Accepted
This is very well done. Gundam Wing was my first real Gundam. I'd seen a bit of other Gundams, and 08th MS Team is definitely my favorite, but Wing will still hold a place in my heart for really getting me into Gundam and mecha in general.
YES PLEASE MORE SAPPHIRE COVERS OF GUNDAM OPENINGS (maybe even shangri la from fafner)
My favorite Gundam opening!
I looooooved the rendition. The singing has such a velvet feel.
Great cover!!!
The lyrics was done perfectly.
😍🥰
oh now we're talking! Thank you for bringing my childhood back! 😁
This is one of my favorite songs from my teen years. So beautiful and grand.
Just found this now ! Best birthday gift ever! Heero Yui: Mission Accepted!
Happened across this video when relistening to my favorite anime intros. I have to say i am incredibly impressed.
Great cover
Nice work on the cover.
This was my first anime I've ever seen back when I was 4 my mom had bought it on vhs . Back in 1998 and ever since I've been a anime fan it wasn't pokemon not yugioh or even naruto . It was gundam wing I owe basically who I am today to that show . Thanks for making this amazing cover .
I've been waiting since last night. I want to hear it already lmao
Was humming this last night working on the backpack for the EW gundam, what perfect timing wow
I definitely think out of all the Gundam this is definitely by far my favorite. I watched this when I was a teenager. Between the storyline and the way they made the characters I think it was well written

Banger cover!
Just ordered the complete series and EW on Blu-ray. Wing is one of my favorites.
Thank you for transporting me back to my childhood. Your cover definitely trumps the original. One of THE best OP song in an anime.
Damn, this takes me way back. Love this ❤
this will make you weep... because... well imagine everything. Gratitude.
This song sent shivers down my spine.
Cover so good makes me wanna watch the show
I absolutely love this!! Love your voice so amazing. 11 out of 10 from me! 💙
Just started thinking of Gundam Wing again and found this song... Think I have listened to it over 10 times in the last 12 hours haha
Wau, this is fantastic
These are all amazing
