Is Uso finally over the girl from Uwig? Is the Universal Century actually overpopulated? And who is the League Militaire's highest ranking fujoshi? Please listen to it!

In the first draft of the story from 1991 Uso would have come to agree with Kagatie and then Shakti would have had to kill Uso. Their meeting in this episode is a total inversion of that.

The deepest dive into the costume design for Victory’s most infamous scene that I’ve ever heard!

The notion of "adults should exit the scene gracefully" is definitely a running theme with Tomino. Here he's talking about it in the context of the ending of "Zambot 3," a show which has an awful lot in common with "V Gundam": https://www.gundamunofficial.com/production/zambot_dvdbox.html#article1 ...Among living beings, animals, and humans, the oldest are the first to die. From Zambot 3 onwards, I started wondering about the mental makeup of those who grow old. Why are so many Japanese people living on without any meaning, and why are there so many weird old people? The elderly are supposed to die. And now that I'm in a position to die myself, because I'm over sixty, I think it's okay to die. You actually have to die. The important thing is whether or not, when you die, you have the strength of spirit to go quietly. If you have that spirit, you'll do your best so that the youngsters who are building the era will say "Grandpa, grandma, it's okay for you to live." I think that's the duty of the elderly. I was thinking about that during Zambot 3, and I decided to address it once again. --The father also dies just before the final episode, protecting his wife. That doesn't need a justification. For a child to have seen his father and mother doing something like that, to have watched his parents die well, is right and proper. When I get to that age, I hope I can die like that, but on the other hand I'm very worried I won't be able to. That's why I hate the adults who always prattle at funerals with sentiments like how young people were, and how early they died, and how they wish they could have lived a little longer. I think people who've lived and died properly wouldn't make a fuss about dying.

...Anyways, that was definitely an impressive research segment! Kudos, team MSB! As far as the timing, it seems like most of the setting art for the final episodes was completed in mid-December to mid-January. Shahkti's Angel Halo costume (from episode 47) is dated December 17, the Gottrlatan's setting (from this episode) is dated late December, a new mobile suit from episode 50 is dated January 13, and the costumes worn by various characters in the final scenes of episode 51 seem to be dated January 22 (it's hard to read). All of which suggests to me that the Neneka battle bikinis must have been (re)designed at the very last minute, well after the normal production schedule, which makes one wonder what they were *originally* supposed to be wearing...

Well, I can't speak much about women and artillery in general, but Saint Joan of Arc, perhaps the most famous female military commander (to the point of having a ship named after her in Victory) was noted to have exceptional talent in deploying artillery.
