Historical Background

These NMs are named for the Black Tri-Stars, a famous trio of enemy Mobile Suit pilots from the 1979 animated TV series Mobile Suit Gundam, considered by many over time to be a heavy influence on Japanese culture (akin to Star Trek or Star Wars in the US; perhaps even moreso).

Note that, in this TV series, these three pilots were known for using their famous "Jet Stream Attack;" one of the more dangerous and well known Bat Triple attacks is called "Jet Stream."
