According to Junki Takegami, the writer of this episode, the reasoning behind the Falcon Team, particularly Yoneda's fearless and seemingly reckless behavior during missions, had not been clearly established when he wrote episode 14 "The Challenge from the Anti-Space ". Therefore, before crafting this episode, Takegami decided to consult other writers about their views on Yoneda’s actions. Most of them suggested that Yoneda's behavior might stem from having lost a comrade in the skies during a past mission.^[1]
- However, Takegami chose to explore a different angle. He posed an intriguing hypothesis: What if Yoneda was not seeing his "past," but rather his "future"? This new idea ultimately helped shape the storyline of episode 32.
