FORMULA
The logarithm of the e.g.f. A(x) is an integer series:
_ log(A(x)) = Sum_{n>=1} A296173(n) * x^n.
E.g.f. A(x) satisfies:
_ 1/n! * d^n/dx^n A(x)^(n^3) = 1/(n-1)! * d^(n-1)/dx^(n-1) A(x)^(n^3) for n>=1, when evaluated at x = 0.
a(n) ~ -sqrt(1-c) * 3^(3*n - 3) * n^(3*n - 3) / (c^n * (3-c)^(2*n - 3) * exp(3*n)), where c = -LambertW(-3*exp(-3)) = -A226750. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Oct 13 2020

To illustrate [x^(n-1)] A(x)^(n^3) = [x^n] A(x)^(n^3), form a table of coefficients of x^k in A(x)^(n^3) that begins as
n=1: [(1), (1), -5/2, -197/6, -65111/24, -62390159/120, -125012786669/720, ...];
n=2: [1, (8), (8), -1040/3, -71152/3, -64676744/15, -63817770776/45, ...];
n=3: [1, 27, (567/2), (567/2), -787941/8, -648507951/40, -405807483249/80, ...];
n=4: [1, 64, 1856, (88448/3), (88448/3), -689015872/15, -611019817664/45, ...];
n=5: [1, 125, 14875/2, 1649375/6, (156207625/24), (156207625/24), ...];
n=6: [1, 216, 22680, 1533168, 73812816, (12455715384/5), (12455715384/5), ...];
n=7: [1, 343, 115591/2, 38174185/6, 12294445009/24, 3808296195823/120, (1051338418817239/720), (1051338418817239/720), ...];

in which the diagonals indicated by parenthesis are equal.
Dividing the coefficients of x^(n-1)/(n-1)! in A(x)^(n^3) by n^3, we obtain the following sequence:
[1, 1, 21, 2764, 1249661, 1383968376, 3065126585473, 11913154589356672, 74286423963211939641, 696469981042645688972800, ...].
LOGARITHMIC PROPERTY.
Amazingly, the logarithm of the e.g.f. A(x) is an integer series:
log(A(x)) = x - 3*x^2 - 30*x^3 - 2686*x^4 - 517311*x^5 - 173118807*x^6 - 88535206152*x^7 - 63977172334344*x^8 - 61971659588102940*x^9 - 77470793599569049440*x^10 - 121439997599825393413344*x^11 - 233353875172602479932391040*x^12 - 539638027429765922735002220880*x^13 - 1479049138515818646669055218090480*x^14 - 4742815067612592169849894663392228480*x^15 +...
