Trivia

• This episode focuses on Doigaki as the main character, with the theme of "overcoming one's weaknesses" explored through Doigaki's process of piloting the TECCH Thunder 3. According to producer Hiroyasu Shibuya, stories like this, which emphasize personal growth and overcoming challenges, were difficult to incorporate in previous, more hard-hitting series. However, in this series, such narratives fit seamlessly.
