Overview

• It features the second youngest protagonist in Gundam anime: the thirteen year old Uso Evin.

• This is another one of Tomino's "Kill 'em all" series. The main cast casualty rate of the League Militaire (especially the Shrike Team), as well as the Zanscare is extremely high. In a notable scene, two members of the Shrike Team are killed by being vaporized in their normal suits by a beam saber.

• According to Tomino, while Victory Gundam was being produced, Sunrise merged with Bandai over his objections. The negative feelings resulting from these events made Victory Gundam his most hated Gundam series. In fact, his interview on the memorial DVD Box's intitial-printing booklet is entitled "Don't buy these DVDs because you should not watch them!!"—similar to an admonition included in the Mobile Suit Z Gundam's final DVD volume. (The interview itself explains the above situation.) According to rumors, it was during the production of this series that Tomino suffered from depression.

• It is the second longest Gundam television show with 51 episodes. SD Gundam Force is the first with 52 episodes.

• It is the first of four Gundam television series that aired in Japan sequentially from 1993 through 1996.

• There is an inside-rumor among Gundam fans that the protagonist, Uso Evin, is the great grandson of late Char Aznable, based on that the last-name of Uso's Mother (Miguel) is the same as Char's last lover, Nanai Miguel (in Char's Counterattack). This series takes place 60 years after the events of Char's Counterattack so this is considered by fans to be very plausible. Even though Tomino officially rejects the rumor, it is also known that the production group considered the idea, just did not implement it (but the last name of Muller "Miguel" stays).

• Director Tomino, as with First Gundam and Zeta, had to contend with great deal of pressure from sponsors and other interested parties. The first episode was originally intended to be episode four, but pressure from major investor (aka Bandai) to show the main mecha from the start, leading to swapping of episode order. Another pressure came with merchandicing interest to put battleships on mid series, while the main stage was on Earth. As compromise and irony, the strange Bespa battleship/motorcycle mixture vessel made apparance. Some point out the death rate as mentioned above had a great deal to do with director's mental health (King Gainer, Brain Powered and his other more recent works have hardly any death.)
