* ButNotTooForeign: Jamie Hoshino, TheChick of the Blue Fixers team was born in Europe and her mother is japanese.

* DownerEnding: YouShouldKnowThisAlready. The movie fixes it somewhat: [[spoiler: A rogue S-1 officer sets off a significant amount of Earth's nuclear arsenal, finishing its transformation into S-1, and Gattler finally gives in to his God complex before Aphrodia shoots him. On the other hand, Marin and Aphrodia have a chance at life together and most of Blue Fixer survived the final battle and hope to find most survivors in shelters on Earth.]]

In 2100, A distant planet called S-1 is contaminated by deadly radiation. The planet's Emperor is given two options: The scientists wish to develop technology to clean up the radiation and save their world, but the military commander Zeo Gattler would rather invade and colonize a nearby, cleaner planet they've discovered(guess which one). Too impatient with the king's decision of an already short ultimatum to give the scientists time to finish their tech, Gattler murders the Emperor and takes over as dictator.

A distant planet called S-1 is polluted. Our hero, Marin, is a boy who escaped from S-1's crazed military dictator Zeo Gattler. Unfortunately, before he can do anything about the people trying to overthrow the evironmentalists' hard work at restoration, he is sucked into a wormhole and ends up near Earth. There, he uses his ship to form part of the mighty mecha, Baldios, and joins the rebel military team called the Blue Fixers.

The finale of the series is [[DownerEnding unexpectedly soul-crushing.]] You should know that now. The entire show is downbeat in tone, but the abrupt ending was caused by the fact that it was cut off before it could have the one more season it had been planned. The small fanbase the show gathered made a large upcry about the awful ending, and in the following year, a movie with a "fixer ending" was released by Toei in the holiday season of 1981.
