新機動戦記ガンダムW
Overseas, Setsuna has received mixed criticism from English-language publications for anime, manga and other media. He has often been compared with the protagonist from "Mobile Suit Gundam Wing", Heero Yuy, based on how inexpressive the two characters are. This bothered Chris Beveridge from Mania Entertainment as the series appeared to be borrowing elements from previous shows despite finding Setsuna interesting. Ross Liversidge criticized Setsuna's personality and found the other members from the cast were far more appealing that him. Carl Kimlinger from Anime News Network agreed with Liversidge stating it was difficult to enjoy the character as he is "remarkable in his frosty unlikeability."
