* Jean-Pierre Mirabeau is explicitly using a leftover from Chapman's days in the Gundam Fights, where the Mirage Gundam is heavily decked out with loads of munitions and firepower. It's infamous for causing collateral damages against civilians by ''firing missiles into the surrounding crowd''. No wonder the Earth is a CrapsackWorld; previous Gundam Fights were tantamount to being like specialized, smaller conflict scale versions of other Gundam series wars!

* While it's a ForegoneConclusion that Gina, sister of Neo-Mexico's fighter Chico Rodriquez, died offscreen, one would hope she passed peacefully and not during the Devil Gundam's final rampage.
* Earth is still kinda fucked over by the end. Even if everyone somehow agrees to an armistice in the aftermath of the Devil Colony Gundam incident, the world has been devastated by generations of Gundam Fights, never mind the pollution and damages prior to the colonies becoming a thing. The Devil Gundam is gone -- but the world would require a ''lot'' of extensive change, and if taken with ''∀ Gundam'' in mind, it'll take the end of societal civilization, the destruction of the colonies or lost contact at the minimum, and most Gundam and Mobile Suit technologies disappearing from Earth entirely before the world can repair itself. And that's if society doesn't decide to try to build another world-repairing ultimate Gundam [[HereWeGoAgain just like how the Devil Gundam started out.]]

Not sure if this goes in Fridge Logic or Headscrtchers, because I'm not sure what the difference is.


* The episode where Domon battles Chico Rodriguez, the Fighter for Neo-Mexico, seems almost tailor-made to make a viewer's brain hurt:
** The whole plot of the episode is that Chico doesn't want to be the Gundam Fighter and abandoned his position to he could spend his sister's last year alive in the Mexican sea, like they always dreamed of. If that's the case... ''why'' did he volunteer to be the Gundam Fighter of Neo-Mexico in the first place? Why not just migrate to Mexico territory without getting involved in the Gundam Fight?
** For that matter, if he wanted to run away from the Gundam Fight... why did he ''keep the Tequila Gundam'', as opposed to just leaving it where the Neo-Mexico government could take it back?! The episode literally calls out that the major reason Neo-Mexico is chasing Chico is because they're looking for the Tequila Gundam; if he'd left it where they could have retrieved it in the first place, they'd have just replaced him with a more willing pilot and swept him under the rug, whereas taking it forced them to chase him down to at least get their property back.
** How exactly is being the Neo-Mexico Gundam Fighter even interfering with Chico's desire to live in Mexico in the first place? Fighters are shown to have all the freedom they want to act on Earth in between matches so long as they continue to obey the code otherwise. All Chico had to do was obey the rules and kick the ass of any Gundam Fighter who showed up looking for a match; he could have spent his days sailing and fishing to his heart's content in between bouts.



* The Characters [[CallingYourAttacks constantly screaming the names of their moves]] might seem like typical Shonen anime fair, until you realize the suits they're piloting don't have any discernible switches or buttons in the cockpits, and due to the way the users control the suits it wouldn't really work out if they did. The special functions and weapons on them might be voice activated.

* The existence of [[FlyingCar hovercars]] in this universe, and no other Gundam universe, seems like just an incidental detail at first. However, it adds consistency to the idea that ArtificialGravity technology is common... and, by extension, also explains why [[HumongousMecha the Gundams can pull off crazy acrobatic maneuvers ]] [[RequiredSecondaryPowers without crushing their pilots, or unprotected passengers in their cockpits (this being a thing that happens several times in the series), into a fine paste]].

** To continue this trend, Shining Gundam and Rising Gundam all take some inspiration on Japan's nickname of "Land of the Rising Sun". Even God Gundam's dub name of Burning Gundam hasa the same effect. Meanwhile the God Gundam was made not just to enhance Domon's capabilities in the Gundam Fight but to fight against the Devil Gundam.

* Since G Gundam is the one of the two series in the franchise that employs nanomachines, this is likely the series that led to ''Anime/TurnAGundam''.
