'''''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory''''' ran from [[March 14]], 1989 to [[December 19]], 1989 in Japan for 38 broadcast episodes, in support of the [[Victory (toyline)|toyline]] of the same name. "[[Transformer V]]" is the opening theme and "[[Cybertron Banzai]]" as its ending theme.

== Overview ==
[[Image:VictoryPoster1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|By the power of Grayskull, I have...THE POWER!!!!!.]]
After the conclusion of the daring, unusual ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', ''Victory'' took the continuing animated saga of the Transformers back to a much more basic approach, restoring an unmoving status quo of small groups of [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s battling over energy on [[Earth]]. Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (cartoon)

'''''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory''''' ran from [[March 14]], 1989 to [[December 19]], 1989 in Japan for 38 broadcast episodes, in support of the [[Victory (toyline)|toyline]] of the same name. "[[Transformer V]]" is the opening theme and "[[Cybertron Banzai]]" as its ending theme.

== Overview ==
[[Image:VictoryPoster1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|By the power of Grayskull, I have...THE POWER!!!!!.]]
After the conclusion of the daring, unusual ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', ''Victory'' took the continuing animated saga of the Transformers back to a much more basic approach, restoring an unmoving status quo of small groups of [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s battling over energy on [[Earth]]. Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (cartoon)

'''''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory''''' ran from [[March 14]], 1989 to [[December 19]], 1989 in Japan for 38 broadcast episodes, in support of the [[Victory (toyline)|toyline]] of the same name. "[[Transformer V]]" is the opening theme and "[[Cybertron Banzai]]" as its ending theme.

== Overview ==
[[Image:VictoryPoster1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|By the power of Grayskull, I have...THE POWER!!!!!.]]
After the conclusion of the daring, unusual ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', ''Victory'' took the continuing animated saga of the Transformers back to a much more basic approach, restoring an unmoving status quo of small groups of [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s battling over energy on [[Earth]]. Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.

Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.

Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (cartoon)

'''''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory''''' ran from [[March 14]], 1989 to [[December 19]], 1989 in Japan for 38 broadcast episodes, in support of the [[Victory (toyline)|toyline]] of the same name. "[[Transformer V]]" is the opening theme and "[[Cybertron Banzai]]" as its ending theme.

== Overview ==
[[Image:VictoryPoster1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|By the power of Grayskull, I have...THE POWER!!!!!.]]
After the conclusion of the daring, unusual ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', ''Victory'' took the continuing animated saga of the Transformers back to a much more basic approach, restoring an unmoving status quo of small groups of [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s battling over energy on [[Earth]]. Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.

After the conclusion of the daring, unusual ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', ''Victory'' took the continuing animated saga of the Transformers back to a much more basic approach, restoring an unmoving status quo of small groups of [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s battling over energy on [[Earth]]. Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.

'''''Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory''''' ran from [[March 14]], 1989 to [[December 19]], 1989 in Japan for 38 broadcast episodes, in support of the [[Victory (toyline)|toyline]] of the same name. "[[Transformer V]]" is the opening theme and "[[Cybertron Banzai]]" as its ending theme.

== Overview ==
[[Image:VictoryPoster1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|By the power of Grayskull, I have...THE POWER!!!!!.]]
After the conclusion of the daring, unusual ''[[Super-God Masterforce (cartoon)|Super-God Masterforce]]'', ''Victory'' took the continuing animated saga of the Transformers back to a much more basic approach, restoring an unmoving status quo of small groups of [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s battling over energy on [[Earth]]. Like ''Masterforce'' before it, the series takes a fresh-start approach, focusing on a cast of entirely new characters, although the connections between the previous series are a lot more clearly drawn than they were between ''Masterforce'' and ''[[The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'', with repeated appearances by members of its cast.

For an unknown reason—be it a rushed schedule, a diminishing budget (perhaps caused by ''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s uncommonly well-done animation) or something else—''Victory''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s 38-episode run features a full six clip shows, containing no new footage or story at all. As if that wasn't enough, a ''further'' six were released directly to video after the end of the series, bringing the total up to 44.

''Victory'' was planned out by [[Masumi Kaneda]], who had also been responsible for ''The Headmasters'' and ''Super-God Masterforce'', but in this instance, his involvement with the actual production of the show appears to have been comparatively less, with [[Hiroyuki Hoshiyama]] credited as the head writer. Kaneda did, however, work on the ''Victory'' [[Victory (manga)|manga]], with the massive storytelling gulf between it and the anime illustrating how few of Kaneda's ideas for the series actually made it into the anime.

==Storyline==
In the year 2025, following the defeat of the [[Decepticon]]s on [[Earth]] in the Masterforce war, the villains have begun aggressively attacking other planets in the universe. To counter this threat, the [[Autobot]]s join with many other civilizations and lifeforms (including [[Human|Humanity]]) to form the [[Galactic Peace Alliance]], which strikes back against the Decepticons with its military [[Galactic Defense Force]]. Recently appointed [[Supreme Commander]] of the Autobots, [[Star Saber (Victory)|Star Saber]] heads up the Sector One Defense Force, backed up by the [[Brainmaster]]s and [[Multiforce]], while [[Ginrai|God Ginrai]] takes charge of Sector Two.

Seeking the energy necessary to free his massive [[Planet-Destroying Fortress]] from imprisonment in the [[Dark Nebula]] where Star Saber sealed it years ago, the Decepticons' new [[Emperor of Destruction]], [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|Deathsaurus]], attacks Earth with his [[Dinoforce]], prompting Star Saber and his team to set up residence on the planet. Accompanying them is [[Jean Minakaze]], Star Saber's adopted human son, whose parents died in a Decepticon attack when he was just a baby, and [[Holi]], head of the [[Micromaster]] [[Rescue Patrol Team|Rescue Team]], who soon arrive on Earth to be with their leader. The Decepticons, meanwhile, are progressively joined by more and more members of the elite [[Breastforce]] squad, including their scheming leader [[Leozack]], who seeks to take leadership of the Decepticons from Deathsaurus, and the sneaky [[Hellbat]], who's only looking out for himself.

After a series of energy-raiding adventures on Earth, the Breastforce target the Micromasters' homeworld of planet [[Micro]], where they liberate their teammate, [[Gaihawk]], enabling the team to combine into the mighty [[Liokaiser]] and finally defeat Star Saber in battle for the first time. Despite the addition of the six-changing samurai [[Greatshot]] to their ranks, the Autobots are weakened by this turn of events, and when God Ginrai arrives on Earth to aid them, he is fatally wounded by Deathsaurus and recreated as [[Victory Leo]]. When Deathsaurus finally reactivates his fortress and turns it upon the Earth, Star Saber and Victory Leo combine together into [[Star Saber (Victory)|Victory Saber]] to end the threat of Deathsaurus once and for all.
