* As noted on the trivia page, had the show's runtime not been cut short, Ennil El would have gotten a Gundam. There's a lot of similarities between the Gundams in Wing and the Gundams in ''X'' - the X (and it's upgrades, the X Divider and Double X), and Airmaster (and Airmaster Burst) borrow elements from the Wing/Wing Zero; the Leopard (and Leopard Destroy) bears similarities with the Heavyarms; the Ashtaron (And Ashtaron Hermit Crab) has some elements in common with the Shenlong; and the Virsago (and Virsago Chest Break) has a bit in common with the Epyon. Not represented are the Sandrock and Deathscythe. Do the math.

[[WMG: The story doesn't take place in a parallel universe, but in the original UC timeline.]]
Consider:
* The timeline has the massive colony drop as its year zero, we have no idea what calendar they used before that.
* Carris mentions that the original Newtypes evolved naturally when humanity first went into space, but implies that they died off after that. This is what happened in the original UC, since by the time of Turn-A Gundam Newtypes seem to be extinct.
* The conflict between the colonies is said to have been the seventh major war in outer space. There are many different ways to make this work with the UC timeline, even accounting for conflicts we never saw.
* The government that rules the Earth Sphere was called the UNE, in the UC timeline various pieces of signage suggest that the Federation's official name is the UNT. Changing from the United Nations of Terra to the United Nations of Earth sounds exactly like the sort of modernization attempt that would happen if a government was starting to feel irrelevant.
* The colonies are of the O'Neil cylinder type seen in the UC timeline, whereas in the other parallel universe story series they had much different designs.
* Pretty much all mobile suits are called Gundams, suggesting a BrandNameTakeover. In the UC timeline the Gundam was the most famous mobile suit, making this well within the realm of possibility.
* The UNE was based in South America, where Jaburo was.

** And if we take it a few steps further, Elpe Puru and Ennil El are both voiced by the same woman AND parts of their names can be written as a single letter. The SAME letter. (L People, Ennil L). And then there's the whole fact that Judau is [[SpaceRunawayIdeon Cosmo Yuki]], which means Judau would already be familiar with the whole continuity-shift thing.

*** It's KenyuuHoriuchi who turns Gundam leads to MEN OF DESTINY successfully! All Bright was cause the eventual fall of 4 victims, Amuro was self explanatory, Kamille became comatose, Hayato raised a son we all grown to hate and died a pathetic death and Hathaway...oh Hathaway...
*** Wait, so this means that you can become awesome if you're a Gundam hero and interact with a KenyuuHoriuchi character? ... Makes sense to me.

[[WMG: Garrod's Father designed the a Gundam]]
When asked about his past by Tiffa, Garrod doesn't recall much, however he does remember that his father was a Mobile Suit engineer who basically got lynched after the 7th Space War. Given the time frame it is unlikely that he designed the Double X, but the original GX-9900? That is not entirely out of the question, especially when you consider that at episode 30 the writers for Gundam X found out they only had 9 more episodes to conclude the series instead of the standard 50.

[[WMG: The Frost Brothers' Gundams are named after Demons]]
Everywhere I look, Shagia Frost's Gundam is named "Virsago", but when he said it, it sounded more like "Vasago". Well, Vassago (double s) is [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vassago a demon prince]] from a 17th century grimoire called the ''[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lesser_Key_of_Solomon Lesser Key of Solomon]]''. Now, while I can't pin down the original source of the description (Google returns a lot of results), one of Vassago's forms is supposed to be a red dragon with green eyes. The Gundam "Virsago" is red, has draconic features, and has green eyes. Finally, also in the ''Lesser Key of Solomon'' (going by Wikipedia, anyway; I don't exactly have a copy on hand) is another demon named Astaroth, sometimes said Ashtaroth, which is pretty close to Gundam Ashtaro'''n'''. Furthermore, Vassago is supposed to be a prince, while Astaroth is supposed to be a duke, which can be ranked below a prince assuming the prince is a monarch. This would fit with Shagia being the elder brother, and Olba being the younger. Given, Astaroth is never described as looking like a one-eyed crab (though that would be [[EldritchAbomination kind of awesome]]), so the comparison isn't perfect, but at the least it's a freaky coincidence.
