In the series Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, Zechs Merquise (German 6 [sechs], pronounced “Zex Mar-keys”, but in Japanese,ゼクス・マーキス like “Zex Mar-kiss”), is a legendary Mobile Suit pilot, belonging to the OZ Faction. Renowned for his amazing skills in combat, his exploits earned him the title of the Lightning Count. A personal friend of OZ leader Treize Khushrenada, Zechs is often the commander of important missions, and receives his orders directly from Treize.

However, Zechs has a very important past. His real name is actually Milliardo Peacecraft (French 1,000,000,000 - milliard, one thousand million in long scale, one billion in short scale), heir to the former kingdom of peace, the Sanc Kingdom. After the destruction of his homeland by United Earth Sphere Alliance forces, he donned his iconic mask, and left behind the name of Peacecraft, for his new moniker, Zechs Merquise. He is also the older brother of the pacifist hero, Relena Peacecraft, and the rival of Heero Yuy throughout the show.

He was voiced in the series by Takehito Koyasu (JPN), Brian Drummond (US), and Damien Boisseau (FR).

Master Asia (東方不敗 Tohofuhai?, meaning “Undefeated of the East”) is a fictional character in the anime series Mobile Fighter G Gundam He is Domon Kasshu’s sensei, the former King of Hearts of the Shuffle Alliance, and known as the Undefeated of the East. He is also the Gundam Fighter of Neo-Hong Kong and a winner of the previous Gundam Fight. Master Asia’s seiyuu is Yōsuke Akimoto and his English voice actor is Dave Pettitt. His Japanese name “Tohofuhai” is taken from Dongfang Bubai, the transsexual leader of the Sun-Moon Sect in Jinyong’s wuxia fiction, The Smiling, Proud Wanderer.

The Master Gundam first appeared in Shinjuku. Master Asia hid the Gundam under the armor of the GF13-001NH Kowloon Gundam. Domon did not realize Master Asia was the pilot when it first appeared. When it first appeared the Gundam activated its Darkness Finger attack and fired the energy at Domon. Domon fired energy back at the Master Gundam and it retreated.

Master later revealed himself to be the pilot and tried to hypnotize Domon so he would join him. However when Master fired on Rain and several other civilians Domon retailiated. Both Gundams used their special move and Domon saw the Darkness Finger was more powerful than Shining Finger.

This Musou Orochi (PS2) 2 pages print Ad also mentions the special Musou Orochi [Treasure Box] (PS2). Musou Orochi is the latest entry in Musou series on PlayStation 2, and is the Japanese version of the Dynasty Warriors series. As you may know, KOEI has been milking this series for all its worth, and this time, the added “twist” is that we get all the warriors from both the Dynasty Warriors series AND Samurai Warriors, with all the Dream Matches such a crossover implies.

And Yet, we all know Lu Bu is invincible.
