Petsu-chan IT JUST GOES DEEPER AND DEEPER.

Victory Gundam's Hideki Sonoda wrote the script for this famous episode (#23 Capture at the Pokémon Tower!.) [Though calling Indigo League episodes "famous" is kinda redundant cause many of them are well known and well remembered by countless of people.]

In my experience: Gundam fans tend to (but not always) have a dislike towards ZZ and Victory. Tomino fans however; tend to like ZZ and Victory more than the Gundam fans do.

Mentioned outside of the Interview-discussion with Takahata from the roman album. The below is from "Newtype 100% Collection 23 Mobile Suit Victory Gundam Vol.2 Shakti's Prayer (June 1994.)"

mitchhang on BS (sporadically)🍉 Petsu-chan I didn't do a line-by-line image edit or anything, too lazy, but on tumblr I posted the gist of it while discussing the artist:

実は魔法使いサリーにバルバラという悪役が登場し、魔法で戦うするくだりがあります

"Bebow Char-like" in Vampire Princess Miyu.

So ive seen enough "Bebow" or 'Bebow-adjacent" works that when I think of the 80s. . . There is the Mecha Bebow of the Sunrise-Tomino TV and film works. . . and then there is the ero-graphic 'Demonic-core' Bebow-style related works around (more or less) the same time. . .
