However, there are some elements that she and her grandfather had previously been unaware of, and Leo is able to help her piece together what might've happened during her cold sleep.

- Notable Facts

  • The Zoid that the Empire was restoring in their lab was a Fangtiger.


  • Leo discovered, excavated, and restored the skeletal form of Beast Liger to the Proto Beast Liger.


  • Although Leo's arm was metalized, he notes that he experienced no pain from the process.


  • Dr. Walter Bowman is renowned, with Buzz having heard about him prior as one of the leading figures in the Zi Forming of Earth Plan.


  • With the Zi-Forming Device unable to establish a proper environment, Zoids were unable to maintain their vitals. They ended up fossilized under the ground, and are now excavated by the Empire and the Republic, who seek to use them to expand their military power.


  • It's noted that one mistake in reviving the Zoid Core can ruin the entire process, making them extremely fragile.


  • Sally traveled to Earth in a cold sleep, with her and Bowman's ship only arriving 1 year before the series begins. This cold sleep explains why Sally is so young, in spite of being a First Generation.


  • The news footage seen at the beginning of episodes is from over 100 years before the series begins. Leo personally restored it.


  • Buzz is noted to have a history working with the Empire as a courier.


    • Historic Timeline

     This episode describes the origin of why humans are on Earth. Years ago, they had fled the planet after it had been destroyed by pollution. They eventually found a planet inhabited by Zoids, Zi, and established themselves there. However, Bowman explained to Sally that the world would be destroyed in 1 years time. They had readied their ships to go back to Earth, and Planet Zi eventually exploded.

     With a long journey ahead of them, most ship residents entered a cold sleep. The ship was supposed to enter Earth's solar system, activate the Zi Forming Device, and wake everyone up when the Earth was ready to be inhabited. The energy required to restore the entire planet would use Bowman's research on strong Zoid genes. By using this method, Zoids could originate from Earth, spawning naturally beneath the ground. Bowman insisted that the power of the Zoids would be essential to developing the reborn planet.

     Sally and Bowman were supposedly the last 2 members awake, until the ship was taken over during a rebellion. The rebels stated that they rejected all outsiders, and didn't want a new Republic. They wanted to rule the new Earth by themselves.

     Realizing that they would destroy the other immigration ships, Dr. Bowman changed the course of the Science Ship. While the crew scrambled to take control of the ship, Bowman and Sally escaped.

     It's discovered that the Science Ship, after going through the wormhole, experienced a time slip and appeared on Earth far earlier than it was intended to. This resulted in the Zi Forming Device trying to activate on a planet that was no longer in need of help, and the presence of this device created an entirely new manner of destruction for the planet. Aside from the mass tectonic activity and extreme weather conditions, the damaged atmosphere and environment led to the birth of the Jamminga, which had never existed prior to the device's activation.

     The first of the immigrant ships began arriving on Earth 30 years before the series begins. They discovered that something had gone wrong with the Zi-Forming Device, and were required to wear masks to survive the environment. Their children, the second generation, were better adapted to the environment and no longer required masks.

     Upon arriving on Earth (1 year before the story begins), Bowman realized that the device had failed, and they had no idea what had become of the Science Ship. He spent the next year researching on his own, without contacting either the Empire or the Republic. However, the Empire eventually discovered his research. So, he gave the culmination of his research, a pendant, to Sally, then fled, using himself as a distraction so that she could escape.

     Machine Blast:
      Nine Burst Cannon

      Cannon Bull is a buffalo-type Zoid that specialises in mid-range bombardment. It has thick armour and has been customised to attack with missiles and cannons. Its speed isn't great, but it has sturdy limbs and hooves, and the robustness to bear equipping heavy weapons and armour. When it uses its Machine Blast, the Bullet Shield on its back deploys, and the Nine-Barrelled Cannon appears from inside. With its Nine Burst Cannon, firing three bullets at a time from left, right and centre, it has overwhelming firepower that can round up herds of enemies.
