History Trivia / SuperRobotWarsW

* GoodBadBugs: The series balances bigger and smaller units by having bigger units receive less damage from smaller units, at the cost of having reduced hit rates on the same, and vice versa. That's gone here, with smaller units hitting big ones just as hard, biasing the game towards smaller units.

** Since he doesn't have to go to school, [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsW Kazuma Ardygun]] opts out figuring it'd be better to train and become a pilot. To his horror, he winds up getting TrainingFromHell from [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic Melissa Mao]] and [[GundamWing Lucrenzia Noin]]. This doesn't do him any favors regarding him [[RunningGag meeting girls, either]].

* [[spoiler:[[MobileSuitGundamSEED Fllay Alster]]]] survives due to the fact the entire scenario objective dealing with [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Rau Le Crusset]] [[spoiler:transferring her and the N-Jammer Canceller plans to [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Azrael Murata]] is to prevent it from happening at all. Thus, she is safely ''far'' away from the "[[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Battle of Jakin Due]]" when it occurs]]. Unfortunately, [[spoiler:even without the Cancellers]], the Earth Alliance instead develops ''Anti-Matter'' missiles to use on the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED PLANTs]]. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice job breaking it]], [[BadassArmy "Neue Wärter"]].

* The [[Anime/MartianSuccessorNadesico Jovians]] were given the ''Anime/{{Gekiganger 3}}'' discs by [[MobileSuitGundamSEED George Glenn]], mostly as a joke to help keep their morale up. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, this winds up being the spark that ignites conflict between the Jovians and the Earth]].

* Since Earth was not destroyed in WorldWarIII, the [=GoLion=] team returns to Earth after getting [=GoLion=] the assistance in fighting the [[Anime/GoLion Galra Empire]]. Meanwhile, [[Anime/GoLion Honerva and Saki]] decide to join forces with [[{{Mazinkaiser}} Dr. Hell]] in order to destroy them.

* In order to keep all its members close by, Wärter has [[{{Mazinkaiser}} Kouji Kabuto]] and the ''Manga/GetterRobo '' team transfer to Kaname's school. To think that [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic Sousuke Sagara]] alone was bad...

* In ''W'', the [[Manga/GetterRobo Shin Getter Robo]] is built primarily as a check against the {{Mazinkaiser}}, just in case it goes berserk when activated.

* [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic Seina]] survives the battle in Tokyo, and joins up with [[MobileSuitGundamSEED Cagalli Yula Atha's]] resistance force, along with [[MobileSuitGundamWing Quatre Raberba Winner]]. [[spoiler:She is KilledOffForReal during the [[MobileSuitGundamSEED "Battle of Orb"]]]].

* ''W'' takes great pleasure in ''not'' killing off [[spoiler:[[MartianSuccessorNadesico Gai Daigoji]]: his in-series death is averted, due to the episode where he gets KilledOffForReal and the following one where [[MartianSuccessorNadesico Ryoko Subaru]] and her squad is introduced being merged into the same scenario. While it appears he dies helping the crew of the ''Nadesico'' escape to Mars, he returns during the climatic battle over the ruins to save [[MartianSuccessorNadesico Akito Tenkawa from Hokushin]], along with [[MartianSuccessorNadesico Tsukumo Shiratori]], who missed ''his'' own death due to the fact that the changes to the ''Nadesico'' plot also changed whom [[MartianSuccessorNadesico Genichiro Tsukiyomi]] shot (ironically enough, it's ''Gai'', which he '''still manages to survive'''). Finally, Gai collapses at the end of that scenario, apparently not fully recovered from his wounds, but he live through that, too]].

** This gets worse when [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Bionet]] uses the "Poniman" incident as a cover to try and kidnap Kaname. Depending on the playthrough, this can be kicked off with a [[MartianSuccessorNadesico Daimajin]] getting destroyed by [[Anime/FullMetalPanicFumoffu Bonta-Kun]].

* The primary theme of ''W'' involves the "[[ArtisticLicenseAstronomy Big Crunch]]": after a time, the universe contracts on itself, then is reborn in another Big Bang. In the backstory of ''W'', various cultures sent parts of their civilization, such as [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Galeon]] and the {{GoLion}} (as well as the [[spoiler:''Valstork'', Valhawk and the Database]]) forward in time from previous generations.

* [[Anime/GaoGaiGar Mike Sounders the 13th]] appears earlier in the ''[=GaoGaiGar=]'' storyline, running off on his own and meeting [[{{GaoGaiGar}} Mamoru Amami]] (as well as [[LightNovel/FullMetalPanic Kaname Chidori]] and the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsW Ardygun family]]) at the Marine World Amusement Park.

* The [[Anime/DetonatorOrgun Evoluders]] in ''W'' are a direct off-shoot of the [[Anime/TekkamanBlade Radam]]: while rescuing his son [[Anime/TekkamanBlade Takaya Aiba]], Takaya's father was also able to steal a [[Anime/TekkamanBlade Tekkaplant]] and send it to the ''Cygnus'' before it fell into a black hole. The crew of the ''Cygnus'' used the system to survive the harsh conditions of space and eventually became Evoluders. Takaya's father's consciousness ends up linked to Jupiter by [[{{GaoGaiGar}} THE POWER]].

* The [=GoLion=] team went to the same training academy as [[{{GaoGaiGar}} Guy Shishioh and Mikoto Utsugi]].
** Similarly, the [=GoLion=] was created by the [[{{GaoGaiGar}} Trinary Culture]], who created Galeon, and sent it as a defender for the Leo Union.

* Instead of hiding out in an alternate dimension, [[{{GaoGaiGar}} the Eleven Masters of Sol place Pisa Sol]] near the planet Venus, hiding it in front of the sun.

* The Radam (and presumably the Evoluders) are proven to be immune to the [[UnwillingRoboticisation Zonderization process]]. [[{{GaoGaiGar}} The Machine Kings]] attempt to kidnap [[Anime/TekkamanBlade Miyuki "Tekkaman Rapier" Aiba]] during her escape to find a way around this.

** Ironically, it probably had to do with ''[=GoLion=]/''Voltron'', since there are discussions about the ownership of the series for the American market.

* [[FullMetalPanic Seina]] survives the battle in Tokyo, and joins up with [[MobileSuitGundamSEED Cagalli Yula Atha's]] resistance force, along with [[MobileSuitGundamWing Quatre Raberba Winner]]. [[spoiler:She is KilledOffForReal during the [[MobileSuitGundamSEED "Battle of Orb"]]]].

** There are also two Hayatos: The pilot of [[Manga/GetterRobot Shin Getter-2]] and Yumi's (Tekkaman Hiver) partner from ''Anime/TekkamanBlade II''. Again, the names are written differently.

* NamesTheSame: {{Lampshaded}}; after meeting the third "Gai" in the game, Kazuma muses on how everyone he meets named "Gai" is a different kind of {{badass}}. For the record, Guy Shishioh is "courageous", Gai Daigoji is "passionate" and Gai Murakumo is "cool".

** This is a reference to how Orgun's designs were discarded Tekkaman ones
