• Cross-Dressing Voices: Notably, Sai's voiced by a woman in the English version (the male Kappei Yamaguchi voices him in the Japanese version).
• Executive Meddling: In an interview with a fansite, Mark Gatha (Domon's English VA) said that the cast felt that the first 20 episodes were kind of rough because they hadn't gotten a feel for their characters yet, and really wanted to redub those episodes after finishing production. However, Bandai wouldn't let them.
  • The show itself was an attempt at this. Imagawa was hired to direct it as he was rather new to the idea of directing and Sunrise thought that now that Tomino was no longer at the helm, they could control the new guy and use him to just push new toys. They didn't realize that Imagawa doesn't take "no" for an answer when it comes to creative control over his work.
• Hey, It's That Voice!: Domon's, Allenby's and the announcer's voice actors are the same ones who voice Irvine, Fiona and Colonel Kreugar. In fact, many people who worked on Zoids Chaotic Century lended their voices for this show.
• No Export for You: The prequel that features the Shuffle Alliance and Master Asia wasn't brought over to the West and doesn't have a fan translation either.
• Playing Against Type:
  • Chibodee Crocket voiced by the same VA as Yazan Gable, the most despicable human being in the entire Gundam franchise.
    • But then, he's also played Jiraiya from Naruto, so it's not too far a stretch.
      • Not to mention he was the dub voice of Data in Japan.
  • Ulube Ishikawa voiced by Nobuo Tobita... Kamille Bidan has fallen.
• Talking to Himself: Averted: though he shares a voice with Master Asia, Stalker never really interacts with the actual cast.
• What Could Have Been: Dr. Mikamura was supposed to have become a Big Bad alongside Ulube towards the end, but Imakawa (the director) just couldn't imagine him as a bad guy with that voice of his. Thus, he got some small measure of redemption instead.
• Writer Revolt: The plot was completely changed by the director, and several people left production.
