      Storyline

      Edit
      • Trivia
        After the death of it's director, Takeyuki Kanda, on July 27, 1996; the release of the remaining six episodes became delayed. Nearly one year later in 1997, Umanosuke Iida took over the project just after completing Mighty Space Miners (1994). The release schedule was more relaxed in the latter half in comparison to the first half due to Iida's work as planner for Blue Submarine No. 6 (1998) and many of Sunrise's staffs became busy working on Cowboy Bebop (1998).

        The series had officially completed it's run on April 25, 1999.
      • Alternate versions
        Despite being shown in Toonami's less censored Midnight Run block, the The 08th MS Team had to be censorship to meet its TV-PG rating. The language used in the show would have to be edited down to meet the rating requirement, since words like "shit" and "goddammit" would not be aired in a TV-PG setting. There is some blood throughout the series, but nothing too graphic that would have to be edited out.
