At [[Victory (planet)|Planet V]], [[Cab (human)|Cab]] and [[Shūta Gō|Shūta]] welcome the [[Brainmaster]] and show off the [[Victories]]' sweet new armor. Cab is wearing a [[Laster]]-type while Shūta is wearing a [[Braver]]-type. Blacker is about to guess (egotistically) what type [[Jan Minakaze|Jan]] is wearing, when Cab and Shūta inform him that it's a [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]]-type (ego deflated).

On the desolated [[Energy Planet X]], Jan and Star Saber have been in pursuit of [[Liokaiser]], only to be stuck always one step behind. The frustration at last gets the best of them and the two begin to fight. Star Saber blames Jan for slowing them down, while Jan simply calls Star Saber mean names like "blockhead" and tells him that he's the reason [[Solon Kitakaze (G1)|Solon]] always teases him. Star Saber cannot believe such treason coming from his own son, but Jan still calls him names.

*The [[Victories]] don their ridiculous armor for the first time in this issue. The relationship of the armor to its corresponding [[Autobot]] goes much deeper than appearances, as you'll find out in "[[Shine, Five Stars of Victory]]".
*It is clearly stated in this issue that both [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]] and [[Deathsaurus (G1)|Deathsaurus]] were children who grew up over the course of 500,000 years in a manner similar to how [[human]]s grow up. Though logically ridiculous, this is actually consistent with the lyrics of the ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (cartoon)|Victory]]'' cartoon's [[theme song|ending theme]], "[[Cybertron Banzai]]", which claims Star Saber never stole snacks or wet the bed when he was a child. More Transformer [[Baby Dinoforce|children]] will appear in "[[The Grand Victory War]]".
*The word "noroma" (のろま), which is a childish insult meaning "blockhead", "dunce" or "stupid-face", is used repeatedly throughout this issue, perhaps to illustrate the overtly childish nature of all the bickering.
