  • Colbert Bump: The series' Super Robot Wars debut in the Z trilogy was one fans of the show were excited for. Non-fans got quite the introduction as every part of the franchise that had aired up to that point got portrayed one way or the other.
  • Real Song Theme Tune: The Red Shoulder march is actually a march the obscure Italian comedy Due Marines En Generalenote  entitled "Arrivano I Marines" note . The fact that a song was composed for a comedy being used as a PTSD trigger is an odd turn of events in its own right.
  • Referenced by...: Made an appearance in Super Robot Wars - the original series, The Last Red Shoulder, Red Shoulder Document: Roots of Ambition, and Pailsen Files all debuted in Super Robot Wars Z2, and Big Battle, Shining Herasy, Phantom Chapter, and Alone Again all debuted in Z3. Fortunately, it was a debut fans have been clamoring for for a long time, and those that didn't got introduced to the series in a gigantic Colbert Bump.
    • Two other games would also introduce unique Scopedogs: one for use by Eiji Asuka in DD and one for Chirico himself in 30's 3rd wave of DLC.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: A BGM track named "The Advance of Warhorses" popped up at the beginning of Scenario 29 of Super Robot Wars Z2: Saisei-Hen, which makes Chirico go nuts. This song was sourced from the original "Arrivano I Marines" march, which Banpresto couldn't license for the games.
  • The Other Darrin:
    • Yuri Nashiwa voiced Fyana in her first speaking appearance in Episode 3, but was quickly replaced with Kazuko Yanaga.
    • Albert Killy was initially voiced by Kenichi Ogata in the first episode but was voiced by Saburo Kamei in all appearances afterward.
