Trivia[]
- His counterpart in Gridman the Hyper Agent is Thunder Jet, the first of the God Zenon set of Assist Weapons created and controlled by Ippei Baba and Yuka Inoue to assist Gridman.
- His name is based off of Vitor, the English name for the Thunder Jet in Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad. The names of his abilities also reference Vitor's pilots; Lucky and Amp.
Vit Concept Art
- The brooch on his vest and his choice weapon being a bowgun are references to the Dinobot, Strafe, from Transformers Age of Extinction.
- Sky Vitter's color scheme and overall appearance is based on Sky Max from Brave Fighter Exkizer.
- When combined with Gridman, Sky Vitter's components have a similar appearance to Sky Max's robot form.
- Vit firing the Laser Circus Amp on Anti is done in the style of an Itano Circus, created by Ichiro Itano and featured prominently in the Macross franchise, whereby a large number of homing missiles is fired at the opponent. The move is even finished off with Gridman standing on Sky Vitter and a similar scene is also used in Macross. It should also be noted that another Kaiju that debuted in the same episode, Diriver, was designed by Ichiro Itano himself.
- Additionally, Itano is no stranger to Tsuburaya Productions, as he had worked alongside them in the duration of Ultra N Project to Ultraman Mebius by implementing aerial combat scenes or designing Ultra Kaiju such as Kesam's armored form and Reibatos.
- Sky Vitter has an actual cockpit, visible for a split second during Full Powered Gridman's combination sequence. Nobody is ever seen in it, though.
- However according to Vit in SSSS.GRIDMAN NOVELIZATIONS Volume 1, Sky Vitter would generate intense G-Force when flying, anyone sitting inside the cockpit would be torn apart.
- Vit is the only member of the team to have never brandished his weapon by the end of the series. He only does so in the opening.
- According to the voice drama episodes:
- Vit has a fish tank at his home. Provocation#Voice Drama 5.5
