[edit] Trivia
- Studio Nue originally designed the Powered Suits for the Japanese edition of the Starship Troopers novel in the early '80s. Source : Gundam Century (1st edition), p.146
- Plotwise, this OVA is considered the most accurate adaptation of Robert A. Heinlein's novel,[citation needed] despite the fact that many liberties were taken with characters and events. For instance, Rico, a Filipino in the novel, is a blonde caucasian in the OVA.
