Notes

• This episode is the sixth of Victory's many clip shows, and the thirty-eighth and final broadcast episode of the show. It summarizes the entire series, using footage from "Sneak Attack! Dinoking", "Attack! Leozack", "Move Out! Rescue Team", "Infiltration... The Uranium Mine", "Explosion!! The Energy Base", "Big City - Underground Terror", "The New Warrior - Hellbat", "Resurrection!? The Decepticon Fortress", "Unite! Liokaiser", "A Deadly Battle", "Ginrai Dies!!", "Fight!! Victory Leo", "Awaken! Victory Leo", "The Tide Is Turned! The Ultimate Weapon, the Victory Unification", "Jan - Defend the Campus!!", "A Mystery?! The Deception of the Base Bombs", "The Death-Bringing Space Insects!!", "The Terror of the Giant Tidal Waves", "The Wrath of the Resurrected Giant Fortress!" and "Showdown! The Fortress vs the Victory Unification". As it contributes nothing to the series (and kinda blunts the dramatic finale of the previous episode), it was not included on either the Metrodome or Madman Entertainment DVD collections of the series.
